Trump campaign peace promises loom large over Iran war The "anti-war" candidate has bombed seven countries and launched a new regime-change war in Iran.

The peace president. No president in the modern era has ordered more military strikes against as many different countries as Donald Trump. He's attacked 7 nations, 3 of which had never been targeted by US military strikes. He authorized more individual air strikes in 2025 than Biden did in 4 years.

Elena Rybakina rocks Aryna Sabalenka to grab first Australian Open triumph * Kazakh rebounds from 3-0 down in final set for glory * 2023 runner-up turns tables with 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 win Elena Rybakina had plenty of reasons to lose faith in her latest pursuit of a second grand slam title. She had played well for so much of the Australian Open final, but just as was the case in their final here three years ago, as the world No 1 Aryna Sabalenka began to impose herself in the match, Rybakina lost all control. Trailing 0-3 and 30-30 on her serve in the final set, Rybakina’s chances were fading quickly.

Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "I just saw a video of more than 6 masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?"

It’s posts like this that make Canada and other countries want to do deals with China and leave the United States all alone. This is the language of an abusive ex.

They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

“This is how the myth of political violence works: the right elevates isolated acts—Charlie Kirk’s killing, for example—into proof of radical chaos threatening the nation while obscuring the far greater structural violence carried out daily through policy, policing, deportation, and war.”

“Shut Up, Shut Up, Listen”: Julia Loktev on My Undesirable Friends: Part I — Last Air in Moscow Note: This interview was originally published as part of our 2024 NYFF coverage. My Undesirable Friends: Part I – The Last Air in Moscow opens in theaters on August 15. For a certain kind of cinephile...

"There’s a lot of stuff that may seem like you’re going off on some other tangent, but it’s all part and parcel of what makes a fascist, totalitarian society."

Julia Loktev discusses her Oscar-shortlisted documentary My Undesirable Friends: Part I — Last Air in Moscow:

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela.

Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law.
