It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it
While Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are puffing themselves up in front of the U.S. military leaders at Quantico, I would like to remind everyone of an important historical detail: “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.
The EU claims to care about Gaza and human rights — but right now, behind closed doors, they’re backing down on real measures that could stop Israel’s crimes.
On Tuesday, July 15, EU leaders will vote on whether to suspend trade with Israel and finally hold it accountable.
They just struck a deal with Israel to allow some aid deliveries — and now they’re hiding behind that deal as an excuse for inaction on Tuesday. Don’t let them.
EU leaders: Suspend Israel. No more excuses.

- is nominating the most hawkish Cabinet I’ve seen
MAGA, yall feel played? Or just happy the Black lady lost?
Canadian MP Charlie Angus responded to President-elect Donald Trump's proposal to make Canada the 51st U.S. state by noting that existing laws prevent "sexual abusers" from leading his nation. https://t.co/lVMpoUSKkd
Billionaires should not own social media platforms.
Billionaires should not run our newspapers.
Billionaires should not control our politics.
A free media is a democratic media - a public good that is owned and run by us all.
The ability to shock every day, to escalate beyond yesterday‘s bizarre or abusive action or statement with another, and another, is a power that all successful demagogues and autocrats possess. Western media and politics are still incapable of dealing with it.

Cutting €2B from ODA, failing to raise FTT, & dismantling solidarity funding jeopardizes France’s role on the world stage. @Cyrielle_Chtl@GabrielAttal@laurentwauquiez protect ODA, reinforce the FTT, and safeguard solidarity taxes.
