Republicans have introduced a bill to rename the "Black Lives Matter Plaza" in Washington, DC, to "The Charlie Kirk Freedom of Speech Plaza."

If you were a big time financier would you invest in any capital project in the US?
I’m not a financier but I wouldn’t put a defunct penny in a politically unstable country with a functionally illiterate population & no plan.
I’m not a European but wouldn’t travel to the US now for any reason.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.

Elections have consequences. A man like this never belonged near the levers of power. Not the first time. And certainly not this second time when everything was knowable. We are trapped in a tragedy and must fight our way out.

Another day where the Trump admin continued to hide the Epstein files and the second strike boat video from the American people.
