Trump: “Maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls…They don’t need 250 pencils, they can have 5.” Also Trump: accepts new Air Force One worth $400M from Qatari royal family.

Russians: *bomb Ukrainian civilians on Christmas, Easter, Chanukah, Eid, New Year’s, Armistice Day, Groundhog Day, yesterday, today, every day since 3+ years* Also Russians: Ukraine please don’t shoot during our military parade! Let us glorify how we kill you in peace 🙏

An Australian man with a US work visa was detained upon reentry, called a “retard” and told, “Trump is back in town; we’re doing things the way we should have always been doing them.” He was held with 100 people including many Canadians. Posters celebrating equity had DEI scribbled out in marker.

US: Europeans must take responsibility for their own defence US: NO NOT LIKE THAT

Also, once again, this is THE LAW IN FRANCE. These penalties exist, in statutes passed by the National Assembly, for reasons judged important by the elected legislators of the Republic. Fuck your "I'm so scared of right-wing extremism that I have to pander to it, unconditionally, all the time."

The IDF has kidnapped the co-director of Oscar winning film No Other Land after being assaulted by a gang of Israeli settlers.
