A photo of Palestinians celebrating is being shared in the wake of the Gaza ceasefire deal, with a caption that implies it is recent.
But it actually shows scenes following a ceasefire agreement in May 2021.

Looks like we weren’t the only ones who’d rather get a root canal than watch Trump lie about protecting the Constitution.
His second inauguration tanked at just 24.59M viewers—less than Biden’s 33.76M in 2021 and even his own 30.64M in 2017.
Team Trump will lie about this, so spread the word!

Macron urges a new European military coalition as an alternative to NATO to help combat Russia and other threats. "We can't rely on (the US) or rest of the world."
The plan is to create a European army with France, UK, Italy, Poland, Baltic states and everyone who seeks to join.

The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention.
