@CelesteSenadora Me pregunto por cuánto tiempo más vas a tener visa para viajar a Francia. Creo que los tiempos de pasar vaca en Courcheval y Saint Tropez se acabaron.

@BenjiNaesen I’m gonna guess that that spectator had some alcohol in his system. Fan behavior along the route is often appalling.

@EliseStefanik @Harvard @FreeBeacon Maria Ressa has known hardships and repression the likes of which you, Rep. Stefanik, have never experienced

Okay, the Guyana president has a pretty good point here.

[Citizen Free Press @CitizenFreePres]

Guyana's economy is booming after discovering oil.

The president of Guyana shut down a BBC "reporter" who was preaching about climate change.

@CBSNews It was Austria, not Australia

Having spent 2 tours in Haiti, including two peacekeeping operations with U.S. forces, I sadly feel that 1,000 well intentioned policemen will be totally overwhelmed. Deadly day in Port-au-Prince with the future looking bleak. IC really needs to come up with something better.

@farhip When I started in a newsroom, there were ashtrays on almost every desk and a haze over the newsroom. Vacuum tubes took page proofs from news desks to paste-up on another floor.

Maybe common sense

Venezuelan army has not fought a war in more than a century. No one I've ever met finds them near any kind of fighting shape.

venezuela threatening military action against guyana, with maduro holding a referendum today that will pass easily.

mostly bluster for a deeply unpopular dictator.

the direct border is impenetrable—militarily maduro would have to go through brazil.

and china, venezuela’s closest friend that matters, owns a piece of the massive oil find maduro claims.

so i’m deeply skeptical we are on the brink of war.

but tensions are heading up.

I learned a lot from this excellent story by @marybsheridan: How TikTokers and Swifties became political power brokers in Guatemala https://t.co/Yo8Gv0Xx2J

@BryanLowry3 @PhillyInquirer Happy for you, Bryan!

[Luis Moreno @LuisMorenolg]

Spent entire tours working with the U.S. military in the past. I frequently interact with active duty soldiers today. I have never seen a more prepared, skilled and motivated force as I do today. Oh, and by the way, lethal, very lethal. Embarrassing comments from the Senator.

@markseibel Can't find the tweet. wonder if Musk deleted it later.

(1) The Hamas-Israel conflict is truly international. Some 30 countries report that their citizens have been killed. The top six countries have lost a combined 138 lives

[Luis Moreno @LuisMorenolg]

If you’re not familiar with the history, politics and dynamics here- you have no idea what a big deal this is. No doubt another result of US diplomacy.

[TimJohnson @TimJohnson4]

This is government-sanctioned theft of a home. Total lack of rule of law.

Ayer la dictadura Ortega Murillo consumó la confiscación de mi casa de habitación en Managua, enviando policías a ocuparla. Es una casa que para siempre contendrá el recuerdo de mi energía creativa, la huella de mis libros y el paisaje que más amaba. Lo que era queda en mí.
