An incredibly important election in a tiny country just went the right way. Moldova has resisted a huge Russian disinformation campaign and will not become a Russian puppet state.

Life for Palestinians in Gaza has gotten worse under Trump, not better. So where are Jill Stein and Cornel West now?
They aren’t leading protests in DC outside the White House, no rallies. Almost like the whole 2024 thing was just performative.

Egg Boy will likely go down as one of this year's biggest stories. But a century before Egg Boy rose to fame, there was Egg Man and his mark on history is even bigger.
