Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni asked, over and over, for a picture with me during the G-7 meeting in France. She is doing poorly in Italy with her level of popularity, possibly because she turned down the United States of America, a Country that truly loves and protects Italy, when it came to denying Iran from obtaining or developing a Nuclear Weapon (But so did NATO, for that matter!). She wouldn’t even let us use Italy’s landing strips or runways, a great logistical inconvenience, and this despite the fact the U.S. contributes hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year to protect Italy, and other “so-called” NATO Allies. Now, after the United States defeated Iran militarily, she wants to be friends again in order to get her “numbers up.” No thanks!!! President DJT

JUNETEENTH: Today is the first federally recognized celebration of the end of slavery in America. Although the Emancipation Proclamation freed the enslaved Africans in the South in 1863, it could not be enforced in many places until after the end of the Civil War in 1865.

🇺🇸👈 On May 1, 2026, the President of the United States signed Executive Order 14404 against #Cuba. This was, in essence, a license to murder an entire people, under the false pretext of "pressuring the revolutionary government" to relinquish power. (RHC)

50 years ago today, 19 Jun 1976 #Jamaican Prime Minister Michael Manley, citing violence orchestrated to undermine his Government, declared a State of Emergency. Six hundred people were detained, including leading political organisers and activists, who had to sit out the 15 Dec General Election. It lasted until 6 Jun 1977. Jamaica experienced 367 murders in 1976 and 409 in 1977. #Jamaica #Caribbean (Photos: Alex Webb/ Magnum; Gleaner)

Despite spending time in Belgium and later France under quarantine and medical screening measures to ensure they had not contracted Ebola, not a single DR Congo supporter traveling from Kinshasa was granted a U.S. visa for the World Cup. Among them was Michel Nkuka Mboladinga, better known as “Lumumba,” an iconic Leopards supporter who became one of the most recognizable faces of AFCON 2025.

Since the start of this tournament, we have been witnessing clear bias against African countries embedded in visa and immigration systems.

A Black man with no institutional backing who walks the walk and calls out fake leftists has upset a yt lady at Jacobin. The man got beaten up trying to get to Gaza last year, something that showed explicit anti-Black racism but let's talk abt his flashy grills & chains.

AOC voted to fund Israel's war crimes and campaigned hard for Genocide Joe Biden, who also defended Amazon, who fired Chris Smalls for organizing protests against repulsive working conditions.
