When on the Garden Route, visit Knysna and do the tour with Featherbed Co. The views are exceptional! @adventureworld.bsky.social #southafricaawaits #visitknysna

The Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race is always a huge challenge and this year it is stressful as my husband and son are doing it. It’s been a bash and crash race into a headwind and big swells. 33 boats have retired but Veloce is still going strong. #sydneytohobart #cyca #yachtracing #italiayachts

Trump and Vance ATTACK Zelenskyy in Oval Office and Align U.S. with PUTIN
YouTube video by The Lincoln Project Trump and Vance ATTACK Zelenskyy in Oval Office and Align U.S. with PUTIN

Today's Oval Office spectacle wasn't about showing strength, it was about surrendering to Putin. Trump and JD Vance have completely sold out America.
