Every patriotic US citizen should be up in arms over this. Utterly disgusting.
Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

Blanche didn’t ask Maxwell a single question about any of these emails. Then he moved her to Club Fed where she is served individual meals and has a puppy and numerous other special privileges while she prepares her clemency petition. WHY?

1/ In 2023, I met a Ukrainian “soldier” named Fedir.
He was kind and never flirted. Months later, he declared his love — and asked for €2,500. That’s how it began.

These bills should have been brought years ago, before Meta sold your data to election manipulating organisations.

More is needed to protect not just individuals, but society as a whole, that's for sure.

Looks a great initiative.

Engaging younger members of society in democratic society is essential for the protection of democracy itself.

If you don't choose democracy, then you're opting to relinquish your rights to select who governs you and how.

Would you prefer surveillance state China?

The true North American people lived long before Colombus, long before white Europeans crossed the Atlantic ocean. Perhaps now it's a good time to make a lot more noise about America's native people, in case anyone thinks the country is owned by people who came only 250 years ago.

The more I learn about Mario Corina Machado, the more inspirational she becomes.

Democracy has always been about freedom, freedom at the very least to choose who governs and how.

Aftermath of the overnight bombing in central Sloviansk.

Two bombs struck a residential high-rise. Five civilians were injured, including a 13-year-old boy. One guided aerial bomb hit the outer wall; the other pierced the roof and destroyed several apartments. 🤬

Enjoying the weekend? And at the same time russians are continuing their massive attacks on Ukraine. NATO/EU jets were on alert and watched the massacre across the border. They could have helped, but they didn't. Hiding behind Ukrainians as long as Ukrainians stand, I guess.

More than 50 missiles and about 500 strike drones. They hit with cruise missiles, "Shaheds" and including "Kinzhal" missiles. 5 dead and 10 injured, — Zelensky.

Now name at least one country that can manage even one such attack…
