Ahmet Necdet Sezer, oğlunun düğününde Çankaya Köşkü’nün elektrik ve su parasını cebinden ödedi. Bugün ise bakan yardımcısının düğünü için Ankara felç! Kamu kaynakları özel düğünlere değil, halka hizmete kullanılmalı! Bu düzenin adı devlet değil, ayrıcalık rejimidir!

I find the US to be an amazing place, personally and professionally, but the risk of arbitrary detention is not worth it.

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Mahir’in 8 güzel çocukla aşağıdan çekilmiş siyah beyaz bir fotoğrafı. Eser sahibini bilmediğim için ekleyemedim affetsin ama çok güzel bir fotoğraf.
Mahir Polat yeni operasyon geçirmiş kalbi ve yüksek tansiyonuyla, HİÇBİR SUÇU OLMAMASINA RAĞMEN, 19 gündür esir.
Bugün Adli Tıp kontrolü yapıldı.

“Harvard now faces one of the most consequential choices in its history: Submit to extortion and make itself complicit in the most profound assault on academic freedom and constitutional governance of our time—or go to court. The stakes are high, but the choice should not be difficult.” (Fixed link)

Before you compare Le Pen’s political ban to İmamoğlu’s arrest, consider this: in Turkey, pro-Erdogan journalists go on live TV to announce tomorrow’s interrogation list—before the summons are even issued. That’s the kind of “rule of law” we’re talking about. x.com/bpthaber/sta...

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia.
Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist.
Extraordinary.
