Myanmar Junta Chief Thanks Trump for Shutting Down VOA and RFA Delighted to have been noticed at all by the U.S. president, Min Aung Hlaing thanks Trump for shutting down American-funded media that reported candidly on his regime’s abuses.

When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

"I had not touched a cat in 15 yrs when an orange kitten wandered over to sit w/me in the grass one day. I was left without adequate words to describe that experience. It reminded me that I am alive. It instilled in me a raw, unbridled happiness that I had never felt before, not even as a child."

In loving memory of Moshu 🍎

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

I'm so sorry, man... I'm hoping for the best for you & your colleagues
