Unfortunately, Russia once again tried to use its satellite, Belarus, to hide its crimes and promote an alternative text omitting any reference to its attacks on the Chornobyl facilities.

I thank all those who did not stand aside and refused to support the Belarusian draft.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

As we move towards taxpayer funded Christian charter schools, Fascinating to watch @GovBillLee pretend steering public dollars to openly religious schools with vouchers/charters hasn’t been his #1 goal all along.

“The alleged journalist, who was suspended from the WHCA by its members following the event, appeared to be involved in a collision with The President’s closed hand, which senior officials describe as unharmed, drawing relief from your pool reporter.”
The other reporters in the White House press corps are apparently waiting until the president actually takes a swing at one of their female colleagues before they say anything

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

Corporations and ultra-rich individuals with numerous business interests cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own bottom lines.

When billionaire conglomerates take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.
If Paramount is allowed to take over Warner Bros. Discovery, the conservative billionaire Ellison family will control:

Paramount Studios
CBS
CNN
MTV
HBO
Comedy Central
Nickelodeon
Cartoon Network
Warner Bros.
DC Studios
Fandango
New Line Cinema
TNT Sports
TBS
Oracle

And more.
