Israel now considers independent journalists to be terrorists. They admit targeting Al Jazeera reporters and cameraman and deliberately killing them. I don't know how anyone can defend Israel's war crimes.

It's interesting how French cities have a strong preference for enforcement of limited traffic areas via retractable bollards while Italian ones have mostly opted for low-maintenance (and revenue-generating) camera enforcement.

Them:

“The Epstein files are everything. You should all care about what’s in them.”

“We can’t wait to release the Epstein files!”

They read the Epstein files.

“Forget about the Epstein files.”

America: What? Why?

Them:

“Why do you care about the Epstein files?”

Anas al-Sharif, prominent Al Jazeera correspondent, among five journalists killed in Israeli airstrike on Gaza Israel admits deliberate attack on the journalist, known for frontline coverage, in a strike on a tent outside al-Shifa hospital

I have studied the targeting of journalists for many years, but the scale and public display of these killings is truly shocking: “Israel admits deliberate attack on the journalist, known for frontline coverage, in a strike on a tent outside al-Shifa hospital“

It’s funny that the cities most favored by Democrats read like a top 10 most urbanist cities listicle, and Republicans’ favorite cities are just…places that hold lots of NASCAR and WWE events

I asked my kids which country they'd want to visit.

My son: Egypt

My daughter: Turkey

My youngest daughter: Taco Bell

My youngest daughter is currently my favorite due to her practical, cost-effective preferences.

to some extent this is true; everyone blames the people in charge when things go awry.

most admins for that reason really try to keep the economy from tanking. this admin, though, has done everything it could to cause inflation and job losses.

FACT OF THE DAY. 2 August 1934. Upon the death of President Hindenburg, Adolf Hitler amalgamated the posts of President and Chancellor to declare himself Supreme Leader (Führer) of Germany. Every German was now obliged to swear an oath of allegiance to Hitler - not to the German state.

PERSON OF THE DAY. 2 August 1343. A French woman, Jeanne de Clisson, decided to become a pirate to seek revenge for the unjust execution of her husband for treason in Paris. Her crew targeted French ships in the English Channel. All crew were killed, except one, who carried her message to the King.
