The US Embassy in Bolivia have been caught paying bribes to legislators in Congress.

Senator Ana Maria Crispin just filmed it happening and confronted the Embassy official. The US is directly passing and blocking laws within Latin American countries.

A mother cries for her burned daughter after an IDF strike in Gaza.

Shame on the world.

I remember when Ireland was a poor country, our trains used to have full dining cars with cooked breakfasts, hot dinners, and dedicated bar areas. Paradoxically, now that we're a rich country, we can't afford these services.

Not enough. US still keeps all Iraqi oil money transactions. This is just useless marketing.

On this day 26 years ago, the world watched, as Jamal al-Durrah tried to protect his 12-year-old son Muhammad from Israeli bullets that rained down on them in Gaza for 40 minutes. Despite pleads, Israeli soldiers intentionally shot Muhammad in the stomach- whose final moments of fear and horror were caught on camera and streamed by France TV, and injured his father.

Muhammad became the defining and haunting image of the Second Intifada.

Wow, Zelensky used an offshore company in Belize to buy the Skaugum estate from the Norwegian royal family for $43M! So transparent and accountable. This is exactly what you'd expect from someone who is constantly begging for billions in “aid.”

The genocide of Jewish people called “holocaust”

The genocide of the Irish people called “famine”

The genocide of Native Americans called “discovery”

The genocide of Africans called “colonization”

The genocide of Palestinian called “self-defense”

The genocide of Lebanese called “security threat”

Language matters. A genocide is unjustifiable wherever happens. Never again

[Abubaker Abed @AbubakerAbedW]

This is what Israeli forces are firing at displaced Palestinians in their dilapidated tents every single day.

These are the bullets that penetrate Gaza children's bodies.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

September 30, 2000. Your daily reminder of what Palestinians have endured for decades.

[Kit Klarenberg @KitKlarenberg]

Always nice to have blunt force real-world confirmation of the extent of the influence the US still wields in the world, given people are *still* making appeals to 'local agency' when absolutely blatant colour revolutions erupt in the Global South. Like in Nepal...

[Daniel McAdams @DanielLMcAdams]

The greatest act of terrorism since Dresden, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki. And no one says a word.

Fantastic piece!

“I argue that the United States is deliberately preparing to sacrifice Europe. When Ukrainian manpower is exhausted, European men and European territory are to become the next expendable resource in a proxy war against Russia.

For decades a networked elite has manipulated governments, manufactured consent for wars of aggression, and shielded itself from accountability through legal and institutional mechanisms designed for that purpose. That same elite now faces the collapse of its financial instruments, the failure of its traditional tools of control, and the rise of powers it can no longer dominate. It cannot afford to lose power, because loss of power would mean exposure for crimes that, under the standards established at Nuremberg, constitute the supreme international crime.

Europe’s own political class is not working for Europe’s interest. Its loyalty has been carefully cultivated to serve the American hegemon — more like a beaten wife than an equal partner. The continent is therefore being transformed from ally into resource: economically drained, politically captured, and militarily prepared as the theatre in which the costs of imperial decline will be paid. The ultimate expression of this strategy is a managed escalation that keeps the American homeland as sanctuary while Europe absorbs both the conventional attrition and the nuclear risk”.

A Palestinian prisoner who had been in isolation for years recently asked one question:

“Is there a ceasefire in Gaza?”

Twelve Israeli prison guards entered his cell and tortured him to DEATH in revenge for asking

@grok Yes or No

FUN FACT: We are paying more money for worse versions of ALMOST everything because private equity firms buy up beloved brands, cut product quality to the bone, hike prices to squeeze out margins, and leave a trail of debt-ridden husks behind.

The Zionists tortured him to death

🇩🇪 BREAKING: Berlin police begin violently arresting citizens as thousands protest against the introduction of mandatory military service in Germany.

The protests come amid Germany’s push to dramatically expand the Bundeswehr as European governments prepare for the possibility of a wider confrontation with Russia.
