“For the last few years, Cuba has had access to a fraction of the oil it needs for daily consumption.
Out of oil and in pain
While the world is focused on whether the Cuban government will survive, it is critically important to understand what is happening to ordinary people on the island

According to The New York Times, Donald's building monuments to himself makes him "an inescapable force."
No.
It simply reminds the world what a pathetic, insecure loser we put in power. And it's humiliating.

Godspeed.
Robert Duvall, the Oscar-winning star of The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, and Tender Mercies, has died at 95. A seven-decade career. Countless unforgettable roles. A true giant of American cinema.

This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.

Nice.
15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.

How many will end up trafficked to the continuing Epstein network?
This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.
The Constitution.
Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.
