Her er de 12 nulevende kvinder, der ifølge udvalg fortjener en statue Eksperter har lavet en Top 100 over historiske kvinder, der bør få en statue eller anden hæder rundt omkring i Danmark. 12 af dem lever endnu - hvem synes du, skal op på en piedestal?

Øhm, ANNISETTE??? Anne-Marie Helger? Özlem Cekic? Bente Sorgenfrey? Haifaa Awad? Naja Lyberth?

Hvorfor har den her slags lister altid så stærk en overrepræsentation af overklassen - uanset køn? Måske hænger det sammen med hvem der laver dem...

Photo shows a young girl with her cat

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year.

She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again.

Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

In Minneapolis and other U.S. cities, Bellingcat supplements local news by “zooming in with a forensic lens” Partnerships with local news outlets help "bring our stories to the audiences who need to see them most."

the work @bellingcat.com is doing in Minneapolis is essential. I spoke with @eoghanmacguire.bsky.social about the site's U.S. strategy

Alex Pretti: Analysing Footage of Minneapolis CBP Shooting - bellingcat Bellingcat has analysed video of the shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. The footage appears to contradict statements made by the Department of Homeland Security.

Our analysis at @bellingcat.com on the killing of Alex Pretti breaks down the video evidence.

He never reached for his gun.
Agents sprayed/tackled him while his hands were up.
He was disarmed before he was shot.
The first shot came from an agent firing at him.

BREAKING: Massive anti-U.S., pro-Greenland protests have erupted in Copenhagen

Let that sink in, one of America’s closest allies is publicly protesting out of fear we might invade their territory

So much for the claim that “the world respects the U.S. under Trump.”

The reality? It’s the opposite.

I study fascism. I’ve already fled America. On this week’s “More To The Story,” former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administration’s takeover of the US government a “coup.”

“I knew that if I stayed at Yale, there would be pressure not to bring the Trump administration’s wrath onto Yale.

I knew that Yale would try to normalize the situation, escape being in the press, urge us to see the fascists as just politically different.”

Greenland war powers vote could be heading to Senate floor Sen. Ruben Gallego said he will introduce a war powers resolution to forestall a U.S. invasion of the Danish territory.

In two days there will be a vote on making Trump seek Congressional approval before invading Greenland.

Dems (except maybe Fetterman?) will vote to limit his authority. Republicans will probably line up behind Trump. If you want to better direct your energy... www.politico.com/live-updates...

Katie Miller tweet with text that reads “SOON” and a map of Greenland with an American flag overlayed

These freaks want territorial expansion and they know Trump will do everything he can to deliver.

This isn’t just a tweet from some random asshole either. This is Stephen Miller’s wife. Miller was in the room with Trump during the kidnapping of Maduro.
