Cartoon by Zez Vaz depicting Ukranian war time President Zelenskyy in the Oval Office surrounded by Trump, JD Vance, Marc Rubio and other goons all wearing a clown nose (except Zelenskyy). One journalist challanges Zelenskyy saying "Why aren't you wearing a clown nose?"

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Tim Snyder captures the White House travesty between Trump, Vance and Zelensky beautifully in this video: Five Failures in the Oval Office. America acted like a bully today and hurt our standing as a country committed to freedom and democracy.

What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

And there it is: Doors are open for kleptocracy in America

Opinion | The World’s Richest Men Take On the World’s Poorest Children I’ve seen U.S.A.I.D. operate around the world, and it’s not woke — it’s lifesaving.

Endorsing the crime of ethnic cleansing.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

And for what?

Canadians booing the U.S. national anthem isn’t something I ever thought I’d see, but this is what happens when you let a psychopath criminal with isolationist and protectionist policies back into the White House.

Woke up to sunshine in Brussels today!

Camps. He’s describing a concentration camp.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
