There are 30 NFL stadiums -- 27 (90%) used direct public funding. The other 3 got tax breaks/publicly funded infastructure.

Stop taking games from fans, stop stealing rev you promised tax-payers when asking for their $, stop diluting the product, and stop risking player health.

I came into the Foreign Service under Ronald Reagan, served under every president, even a few months under Donald Trump. NO ONE, absolutely NO ONE, ever asked me who I voted for or doubted my "fidelity" to my country. They don't want professionals, they want political hacks.

New. I’m told by frontline drone commanders in Ukraine that Starlink speed restrictions have likely been lifted. They are still doing tests but “this looks to be the case”

Young Kenyans are a politically engaged bunch. Yet their turnout at elections has been in decline for years. Could they buck that trend—and vote against a president they despise? https://t.co/y917R8YH93

At the start of the war Iran had ~135m barrels of oil in floating storage in Asia, which it continued selling to China

After a months-long American blockade, that stockpile has been totally depleted, according to @Kpler https://t.co/4EBX7T7jVA

Weidel: "Prolonging the war and shooting drones into the hinterland of Russia, destroying refineries, houses, and buildings near Moscow, is a huge provocation."

Host: "It's defending itself."

Weidel: "No, it's not."

Host: "Every night, drones and ballistic missiles rain down on Ukraine..."

Weidel: "This strategy is very risky, and we've been criticizing it. We want to end this war.

It doesn't help if a country [Ukraine] launches drone attacks against a country [Russia] that has nuclear weapons. It doesn't make sense, it's very risky and very stupid.

We need to end this, and we need to actually put pressure on Ukrainian president to have the willingness to end the dying and stop this very risky strategy for all of Europe."🔚

Folks, here is Weidel's imaginary reality: black is white, the victim is to blame for the crime against them, and defending your home against a bloody, illegal invasion that murders children and razes towns is "stupid," while letting Russia occupy you and carry out a country-wide Bucha massacre is probably smart.

And defending yourself is risky! Risky, did you hear that? Well, no shit, just standing there and catching Russian ballistics with your face is risky, too. So we may as well take the risk and, hear me out, fight back?

​Please don't vote for this evil Russian appendix in Germany!
