If Kamala Harris had used our tax dollars to raise a river’s water level so that her family kayak vacation would be more fun, Fox would be running that shit on a loop 24/7 for two weeks straight.

Moreover, Witkoff misunderstood Putin's key statements and considered them a concession.

"Witkoff doesn't know what he's talking about," a Ukrainian government official told BILD.

The US, on the other hand, proposed to freeze the conflict on the current front line in exchange for a broad lifting of sanctions and new economic agreements with Russia.

According to BILD, the Kremlin did not want to accept this proposal.

🤔 Witkoff misunderstood Putin, the Kremlin still wants to get Crimea recognized as Russian and Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson regions in full, - BILD

He only proposed a refusal to attack energy facilities and large cities, but not a comprehensive ceasefire.

Narrator: Sadly though, SCOTUS has now exempted the president from the founders’ intent to criminalize bribery.

This is your daily reminder that there is clear, documented evidence that Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women.

The sordid origin of 'America First,' explained by a historian "They were not keen on fighting Nazis."

New in PN: The sordid origin of 'America First,' explained by a historian

“Mainstream opinion in the '30s wasn't pro-Nazi but it wasn't anti-Nazi in any meaningful way either. People would say, ‘Germany for the Germans — what’s offensive about that?’ Nationalism has a certain accepted sensibility."

Trump’s War on Big Law Means It’s Harder to Challenge the Administration Some of America’s largest law firms are refusing to take pro bono and paid legal work from groups that seek to hold the government to account on issues like environmental protection, LGBTQ+ rights and...

Trump’s chilling effect on Big Law firms taking on pro bono work has “been a nightmare,” said the president of a small nonprofit that investigates civil rights violations.

“People don’t want to stand up, and because of that, people are suffering.”

Of course, Trump cares about DoD/DHS/ICE's well-being, but not the survivors of Epstein's/Maxwell's abuse.

Det har der ikke været skrevet om i dk.

Efter at præsident Donald Trump fredag forsvarede at sende tropper mod narkokarteller i Mexico og Latinamerika for at "beskytte" sit land, erklærede Udenrigsministeriet, at Mexico ikke vil acceptere deltagelse af amerikanske militærstyrker på sit territorium.

Keir Starmer once stood up for protesters. Now he calls them terrorists As a human rights lawyer, Starmer defended direct action on grounds of conscience. But the world is now a much less forgiving place

“Civil disobedience on conscientious grounds has a long and honourable history in this country” -a law Lord jn a case defended by Keir Starmer in 2006. Now look. app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/70319/...

It’s not just charlatans like Farage, deliberately spreading misinformation to inflame tensions

It’s Starmer’s “island of strangers” speech. Theresa May’s “go home” vans

It’s every politician who has taken up “stop the boats” as a campaign slogan

This is where it’s led us. And it has to end here.

It’s not only bigotry from a small minority of people.

It’s the politicians who for years made life harder for ordinary people. Standing by as the NHS struggles, our schools crumble, the cost of living goes sky high.

Instead of taking responsibility, they’ve pointed the finger of blame at migrants

Today a far right protest is expected to take place outside a hotel housing asylum seekers in Bristol

Let me be clear: the far right are not welcome in Bristol. They don’t represent us, or what we stand for

But I also want to be clear about what’s driving this wave of unrest...

Important to note that there are different types of US-Russia presidential meetings. This type is particularly significant and thus a very clear sign of the Trump administration's desire to align with the Kremlin. Long🧵

Biden in Ukraine

Trump and Putin are animals. People should be outraged that they’re deciding the fate of Ukraine and leaving Zelensky out of the meeting!

Russia waged war unprovoked. Putin constantly bombs civilians. America is a frigging disgrace!

Remember when we had a REAL leader who supported Ukraine?

fucking hysterical to hear the 'poor little genAI industry' crying about being bullied with "copyright law" as if it's some novel, untested area of jurisprudence.

If you don't want to be sued by 7 million people don't steal from 7 million people, that's a pretty simple legal concept
