بينما تحتفل أمريكا #ترامب بذكرى ٢٥٠ على الاستقلال، اختار البابا ليو الرابع عشر أن يقف عند «بوابة أوروبا» في لامبيدوزا، النصب الذي يكرّم من ينقذون ويستقبلون المهاجرين العابرين للمتوسط.
ضربة غير مباشرة لترامب.
New York mayor Zohran Mamdani @NYCMayor's speech for USA's 250th birthday is absolutely amazing!
"We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world, one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more!"🔥
No wonder he is supported by many young Americans.
🚨 BREAKING:
American actor Brad Garrett announced that he has joined Javier Bardem in refusing to work with anyone who supports the genocide in Palestine or with any Israeli company.
We always laughed at Military Intelligence as an Oxymoron and this man confirms it. I know families of killed friends or those who lost their sons. The military goes out of its way to make sure they get documents and the proper burials. Another US liar.

"The Heavenly Railway" Transforms Tibet's Life in 20 Years
This is the highest railway line in the world.
At Tangula station, located at an altitude of over 5,000 meters, the oxygen content is about half that of sea level.
Building the railway in these conditions was considered impossible.
But in 2006, the first train arrived in Lhasa.
100 million passengers, 800 million tons of goods, and two decades of continuous work.
The "Heavenly Railway"—as the Qinghai-Tibet Railway is known—has not only connected Tibet to the rest of China over the past 20 years but has also transformed the region's way of life.
This is properly insane: quite literally the worst example of censorship I've ever heard of anywhere.
I checked the actual ruling (which you can see here: https://t.co/dBKFWZ2ZWm) and, to be clear, it isn't just censorship in the conventional sense - blocking access to a website or removing content from platforms - this is the criminalization of information relayed by private citizens, with prison sentences attached.
And the most insane aspect if that it does NOT matter if the information relayed is accurate or not. It just matters that it originates from RT or other media outlets banned in the EU.
In other words, truth isn't a defense anymore in the EU, it literally doesn't matter. It's purely based on the identity of the speaker.
The ruling is actually explicit about this: the regulation, quoted by the Court says that the prohibition applies to "any content," and they draw no distinction based on what the content actually says. If it originates from banned outlets, it's banned.
It is, quite simply, a complete unraveling of the entire post-Enlightenment legal and philosophical project where entire generations of Europeans fought to move from "who says it" to "is it true" as the operative question.
Think about the absurdity of it: if RT publishes a video saying the sky is blue and you share it on a publicly accessible website in the EU, you'd fall within the scope of this ruling, making you liable to criminal prosecution.
Completely and utterly absurd. But that's the EU today for you 🤷

No accountability for any of them
🛑 Urgent: Dr. Hossam is reportedly in critical condition and is said to be taking his last breaths. According to his lawyer, his condition is extremely serious, and he urgently requires independent medical treatment and immediate release.
I’ve had the privilege of standing alongside Thiago Ávila in struggles for peace and justice from Gaza and Venezuela to Cuba and beyond.
I’ve seen his courage, compassion, and commitment up close, and I truly believe he represents a new generation of leadership that understands our struggles are connected.
That’s why I’m proud to support Thiago’s campaign for Brazil’s House of Deputies and his vision of building a Potência Mundial da Vida, a World Power for Life.
Infantino is a Criminal who also happens to supports Western Imperialism and Israeli Genocide. What's the Football world + @FIFAcom going to do about it..?
A woman confronted a group of Israeli tourists in Budapest after they spat near her baby’s stroller, which was covered with a Palestinian keffiyeh. She shouted at them, demanding that they face her directly.
