The "abuse of memory" is not forgetting but rather remembering in a way that perpetuates conflict and hatred, it makes the past a prison. The exemplary use acknowledges the tragedy of history without being defeated by it, transforming the weight of the past into a compass for the future

Kitsch Christianity with a sovereignist twist. It is the Trumpian version of Phariseeism transferred from the streets to Hollywood's “m(a)ega” convention centres. The Gospel, used as aftershave, for the supremacist self-promotion of a caste of decadent and out-of-touch rich people!

SUMMARY
‘Many points have been agreed upon, very few remain, some of which are not so significant. One is probably THE MOST SIGNIFICANT, but we haven't got there yet’ (Trump)
A meeting between two clowns who promoted each other, making fun of Ukraine and the world!

Dopo 1sparatoria nella metropolitana Navy Yard - Ballpark, con arresto di 1sospettato, a Washington DC è stata istituita zona con coprifuoco x i giovani (!?), dopo che oltre 100 giovani si erano radunati lanciando fuochi d'artificio, guidando moto da cross e monopattini elettrici!

For money, you can even expose yourself to Chinese espionage, but the poor are “criminals a priori” so they have to be evicted for... “security reasons.” The world and politics according to the world's leading power: stinking rhetoric from unscrupulous businessmen voted in by the “people”!

AN INDIGESTIBLE MEAL
Netanyahu, at dinner at the White House, forcefully nominates #Trump for the #NobelPrize. It may sound like a joke (and a rather vulgar one at that), but it is a further glimpse of politics reduced to a sideshow where criminals exchange pleasantries over the world's skin!

In Libia avrebbe dovuto incontrare il presidente e il governo per chiedere maggiori sforzi nel bloccare le partenze. Hanno fatto di più: hanno bloccato anche il suo arrivo! La credibilità internazionale della politica italiana di "propaganda".

Now unrestrained, the US President's ravings highlight the urgency for those who enter public office to undergo a preventive psychiatric examination. Americans and others may regret the increasingly out-of-control consequences.

US President Trump on Putin: Statements by a statesman (??!!)
"I thought there was a very good chance, about 50 per cent, that he would say, 'I want to take it all.' I didn't know what he would say, and then they have a different kind of problem. But I think he wants to stop."

Some said they were shocked that #Trump could, “desecrate” a St. Peter's aisle, holding political talks with Zelenskyy. In many ways it is the most dignified thing he has done since his re-election, a feat for someone used to turning everything into a mockery, including people's human lives!

Great! The catastrophic Waltz, under scrutiny after putting up a chat on Signal and mistakenly including The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg, revealing discussions with senior national security officials, was dismissed from national security adviser, to become invaluable US ambassador to the UN!🤡👏

Europe’s highest court struck down Malta’s controversial “golden #passport” program, which allows people to buy citizenship, in a landmark ruling Tuesday. Passport in exchange for a one-off investment of at least €600,000 and residing in #Malta. Many countries do the same, not by declaring it!
