Last time I checked US had an Air Force Base in Qatar.

Amerikansk venstreside er forståelig nok kritisk til at Trump-administrasjonen lar Qatar etablere en flybase i Idaho. Bare nevner at USA har en svær base i Qatar,

So I guess for MAGA when a Chinese balloon goes over US airspace it’s a week straight of apoplectic comments that WW3 is starting because Biden is weak, but when Trump allows the Qataris to have an airbase in the US and fly fighter jets over our country that is America First.

Reindeer, cut off from foraging routes, now graze on seaweed. Polar bears, deprived of the ice platforms to hunt seals, have turned inland, increasingly, clashing with humans.

Scientists are discovering how climate change is transforming ecosystems, making their work more dangerous.

Når først så mye av diskusjonen rundt fredsprisen handler om Trump, er det relevant at Marco Rubio eksplisitt har støttet Machado som kandidat..?

Der oppdaget norske media at Rubio støttet Machados kandidatur. Riktignok før han ble utenriksminister. Skal bli interessant hva han sier nå. www.nettavisen.no/fredsprisvin...

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

Hva så om de fikk se en russisk propagandafilm?
