The number of people travelling from Europe to the US in recent weeks has plummeted by as much as 35%, as travellers have cancelled plans in response to Trumpβs policies and rhetoric, and horror stories from the border.

"Israel admits mistakes over medic killings in Gaza."
This story is so horrifying it is actually also a perfect case study of media literacy.
Look at this headline by the BBC. Is this how one should write the headline for the story of an army massacring medics, burying the ambulances, dumping the bodies in a mass grave, and then lying about it?
What a heartbreaking photograph - the impact of satellite constellations on the night sky.

At least 326 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli airstrikes, according to Norwegian newspapers. Why does the Norwegian Oil Fund (pension fund) still have large investments in Israeli companies? The Oil Fund's Council on Ethics is a joke. Money trumps ethics and morals. It's a disgrace.
