🇮🇷🇮🇱 Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responds to Zionist lunatic Ben Gvir:
"This is not a rant by a random genocidal lunatic. It's a public post by the national security minister of the Israeli regime.
The genocidal death cult headquartered in Tel Aviv is a threat to all of humanity. It threatens all humans. Its only interest is permanent war."
🇺🇸 Trump's $14M Reflecting Pool Falls Apart Within Days — Algae's Back, Paint's Peeling
Trump ordered the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool renovation in April, calling the existing pool "filthy dirty" and demanding the bottom be painted "American flag blue." Original estimate: $1.8 million. Final cost, per federal contract records: somewhere between $14.2 and $14.8 million, depending on which outlet's contract summary you read — the contractor told NBC the price rose because "the park service added work to the original scope."
Weeks after refilling, the pool turned green with algae again. NPS dumped hydrogen peroxide and ran "nanobubble ozone technology" to kill it. Within days, the new blue coating started peeling off the bottom anyway — high pH from the algae treatment may be stripping it.
A separate $1.7 million water-purification contract, awarded without competitive bidding, went to a firm owned by longtime Trump donor John Cafaro. Interior denies any connection.
A nonprofit is now suing the administration over the repaint itself, arguing the original lighter color reflected the monument better and the change was unlawful.
Lavrov : Contacts with Madagascar’s new leadership are highly intensive, and we hope the U.S.-Iran understandings will help prevent renewed violence in the Middle East.
BREAKING. All hell breaks loose between Donald Trump and Giorgia Meloni. 🇮🇹 🇺🇸
Trump told La7 tv that apparently “Meloni begged to have a picture with me at the G7, I felt sorry for her”.
Meloni’s scathing response: “I am shocked by Trump’s utterly fabricated words. I am sorry he doesn’t show the same determination against the enemies of the West. And bear in mind: me and Italy never beg”.
What a time to be alive.
As the world closes in on you, Israel, it's not because you are Jews but a country of war criminals who hold themselves out as above all international law and norms and common decency. For generations, you have played the victim card while victimizing all others.
If you were to write this headline or article in a variety of US, UK, German or French media outlets, your career might be on the line and you’d probably be accused of antisemitism.
And yet the author of this piece is a former prime minister for Israel.

Labour is not dead yet, though millions of innocent people have died at its hands.
Andy Burnham worked inside the New Labour government for a decade. He served as a special adviser before becoming an MP in 2001. He held ministerial posts under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, including roles in the Treasury, Culture, Media and Sport, and the Department of Health. He voted for the Iraq War in 2003 and remained in government throughout the Blair period.
During his time in office, Burnham operated within the policy framework established by New Labour. In health, he worked in a system that expanded the internal market and deepened the privatisation of the NHS, increasing the use of discredited private finance initiatives. In education, he was part of a government that introduced and later increased university tuition fees and expanded competitive structures in schools. He also supported government positions on security legislation, including measures related to surveillance, detention and identity cards.
After Labour left office, Burnham adopted positions that differed from some New Labour policies, presenting an image of a man advocating for greater public control in health and transport and criticism of aspects of the Blair government’s approach, BUT he has not withdrawn his Iraq War vote and has not disowned his role in implementing New Labour reforms. His record speaks for itself...
Those who campaign for him, those who seek to pull voters back into the embrace of the Labour party, objectively serve imperialism.
Our Role
Our party fought a hard contest in Bury this week, but lost to Labour. We salute our candidate Amer Yasin for taking a very credible 680 votes. The Labour win shows the danger confronting us. It shows that the project to free working people from Labour is far from over. The Burnham-bounce will be a painful lesson for Britain as it enters this new period.
Manchester Mayoral
Our Political Committee today formally asked George Galloway to consider being our candidate in the upcoming Manchester Mayoral contest. But George's candidacy rests on many factors; not least an undertaking from the British State not to use counter-terrorism legislation to seize him should he return to Britain. Furthermore, the yet - to - be confirmed date of the contest is important. Starmer seems determined to force an immediate contest, giving other parties no time to prepare for the fight, raise funds, and crucially force them to campaign in the middle of summer with a vote during school summer holidays.
This is not a rant by a random genocidal lunatic. It's a public post by the national security minister of the Israeli regime.
The genocidal death cult headquartered in Tel Aviv is a threat to all of humanity. It threatens all humans. Its only interest is permanent war.
🇺🇸🇮🇹 Trump Humiliates Meloni in Phone Call — Rome Cancels US Trip
Trump told Italian TV that Meloni "begged" him for a photo at the G7 in Évian and that he "felt sorry for her" — adding he wasn't even "obligated" to talk to her.
Meloni responded on video: the claims are "completely invented," she's "frankly stunned," and "Italy and I never beg."
Foreign Minister Tajani scrapped his Miami trip outright, calling the remarks "grave and offensive to all of Italy."
Donald Trump destroys the USA's relationship with Italy by claiming their leader Giorgia Meloni begged for a picture with him.
How ridiculous no-one wants a picture with Mr Epstein List.
⚡️Russia believes there are signs that the United States could once again change its approach to resolving the Ukraine conflict, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said. Moscow remains committed to the settlement paths proposed by the U.S. during the talks in Anchorage.
“We have no concerns. But we do have a sense that there could be another shift in approach, as happened after the Anchorage meeting, where certain understandings were reached,” Lavrov stated.
Other remarks:
▪️There is still no timetable for the visit of Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Russia.
▪️The United States continues to support Ukraine by imposing sanctions on Russia.
▪️Moscow appreciates that the Trump administration has never denied the need for dialogue.
▪️Remarks by Marco Rubio suggesting that the U.S. cannot act as a mediator in the conflict came as a surprise to Moscow.
