Section 224 shouldn’t pass until U.S Congress creates a commission to investigate all of Israel’s human rights violations and war crimes done in the last 10 years! @HouseGOP@HouseDemocrats@SpeakerJohnson
If the provision in the NDAA to integrate/synchronize the U.S. and Israeli militaries (section 224) makes it out of committee, I’ll offer an amendment to strip it from the bill on the floor.
We are a sovereign country.

What has happened at the #2026WorldCup over the last 48 hours:
• Swiss footballer Embolo's visa was put under review and he was only able to join his team days later.
• Iraqi national team player Aymen Hussein was held for questioning for nearly 7 hours upon entering the United States.
• The Iranian national team spent days dealing with visa procedures at the U.S. Consulate in Türkiye. The U.S. only allowed them entry on match days. Fifteen members of the delegation were denied visas.
• Omar Abdulkadir Artan, named CAF's Best African Referee of 2025, was denied a visa. Despite travelling to the U.S. with a diplomatic passport, he was refused entry and sent back. FIFA announced that he will not be able to officiate at the tournament.
• The South African national team arrived in the United States much later than planned because part of the delegation was not granted visas.
• Members of the Senegal national team staff were forced to remove their shoes and subjected to lengthy searches, sparking accusations of racism.
• The Uzbekistan national team was searched with bomb-sniffing dogs and the footage went viral in international media.
• Some Scottish supporters, despite being eligible to enter the U.S. visa-free under the ESTA programme, had their travel authorisations revoked just days before departure.
• Many supporters who had already bought tickets and booked accommodation had their visa applications rejected, resulting in financial losses.
The Reflecting Pool on the National Mall has been refilled following President Trump’s renovations.
The project ultimately took six weeks and cost more than $10 million, far more than Trump initially projected. https://t.co/no9QuP1lmu
The Trump family generated at least $2.3 billion in profit from their main crypto ventures, while more than a million investors had net losses totaling $2.3 billion, a Reuters examination finds https://t.co/N8DvTPc6SM @specialreports
🚨🇪🇨 Informes de grandes explosiones e inestabilidad creciente están avivando la preocupación en todo #Ecuador.
Los críticos cuestionan si la creciente cooperación en seguridad del presidente @DanielNoboaOk con #EstadosUnidos está ayudando a la situación o empeorando las tensiones.
El debate continúa.
Trump volvió a dejar claro que su relación con la verdad depende de si la verdad le sirve. Cuando Kristen Welker le pidió pruebas sobre sus acusaciones de fraude electoral, el presidente no respondió con datos, documentos ni evidencias: respondió con insultos, acusó a la periodista de corrupta, atacó a la NBC y abandonó la entrevista.
El hombre que lleva años gritando que le robaron unas elecciones no pudo sostener su propia mentira cuando alguien le hizo la pregunta más básica del periodismo: “demuéstrelo”.
When the grid was electrified in the 1930s, it left landowners wealthy and the rest with nothing but displacement. Bernie Sanders doesn't want that to happen again. #OwnAi https://t.co/oW37Qc37TY
🚨 Election Comparison:
Colombia vs California (US):
Turnout: 58% vs 23%
Voters: 24 mil vs 6 mil
Results: 2 hours vs 2 weeks
Colombia has proof of citizenship, voter ID, paper ballots, no mail in voting, 1 day of voting.
California doesn’t even require ID!
Embarrassing.
Anthropic is calling for top AI labs to weigh slowing the pace of development, suggesting that AI systems are advancing so rapidly that they may soon be able to improve themselves without human intervention in ways that could pose societal risks. https://t.co/8c7xkeX17B
The world today is characterized by large-scale inequalities. And a climate crisis is looming over us.
We urgently need a new vision for global progress in the 21st Century. One that grounds human development and equality in planetary habitability.
What would it take to achieve high prosperity and equality while remaining within planetary boundaries?
The World Inequality Lab is very excited to launch the #GlobalJusticeReport.

@OANN Isn’t more unpatriotic to drain our stockpiles? ⛽️ At least some republicans had the courage to do something about this Israel led war https://t.co/PncY0LgXK0
@berniemoreno@ABDELAESPRIELLA One more reason to vote against him. Who wants the support of the least liked president in the history of this country? https://t.co/RRxN7sVDUt
