Hillary Clinton's attempt to take a jab at Trump backfires.

Clinton’s effort to push back on President Trump’s Lake Ontario name change quickly turns into a pile-on from conservatives after she posts just three words: “It’s Lake Ontario.”

Trump is directing the federal government to call the U.S.-Canada border lake “Lake America,” and Clinton’s response racked up more than 3 million views within hours.

Radio host Vince Coglianese mocked her post, saying she was "shooting blanks." Sen. Marsha Blackburn fired back, "And you'll never be President."

The clash comes as Trump intensifies a broader trade battle with Canada.

On this day in 1990, a defiant Saddam Hussein ignores demands from the international community to withdraw from Kuwait. Instead he declares that the tiny Gulf state is now Iraq's 19th province.

Alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh and 3 co-conspirators to stand trial in June 2028 — over 2 decades after Twin Towers fell

All four have been held at Guantánamo Bay since 2003

The case has been dragged out by legal battles over confessions obtained through torture

As a Ugandan, it fills me with pride to see an illustrious son of our nation carry a lifetime of global service, a fierce commitment to the vulnerable, and a deep passion for justice to the world stage.

For years, many of us have followed with great respect, Ambassador Olara Otunnu’s incredible track record at the United Nations.

His work championing human rights and protecting children in armed conflict is exactly the kind of leadership the global community desperately needs right now. True leadership is measured by integrity, vision, and an unwavering dedication to peace and justice.

We can not forget the historical injustice when the Museveni regime vindictively denied him an endorsement for this very position years ago. They blocked him for simply refusing to stay silent about the atrocities they were committing against our people. Perhaps if he had risen to that position at the time, the world would be fairer, more just, and more peaceful.

Central to his vision is a profound passion for genuine multilateral reform, where international institutions must evolve beyond mere arenas of superpower politics to become true instruments of equity, accountability, and shared prosperity for all nations.

I hear some citizens who are raising tough questions about why the regime has suddenly changed its mind to endorse him now. Your scepticism is understandable, given what the bloodthirsty regime is doing to our people. And I know Ambassador Otunnu to be a man of deep humility who welcomes free speech and receives your concerns with grace. We can all bank on his long-term, proven integrity and hope that when he rises to become the world’s top diplomat, he will never turn a blind eye to the ongoing struggle for freedom in his own motherland. As he has consistently acknowledged, Uganda faces dark spots that need fixing.

Ambassador Otunnu has my full solidarity and prayers as he carries our collective aspirations for a fairer world to the global stage.

Uganda provides 600+ military and police officers to four @UNPeacekeeping missions.

They are #ServingForPeace at great personal risk and under harsh conditions to help others. We thank them for their service and sacrifice.
