Videos verified by The New York Times show Alex Jeffrey Pretti, the man federal agents shot and killed in Minneapolis on Saturday, was holding a phone, not a gun, when the agents took him to the ground and shot him. In total, at least 10 shots appear to have been fired within five seconds.

Increasingly, the MAGA agenda seems to mean withdrawing from the rest of the world and ceding control to other countries. Undermining the future.
The Trump administration abruptly recalled nearly 30 career ambassadors at U.S. embassies around the world, in a move that senior officials said is aimed at better aligning the State Department with the president’s foreign-policy agenda.
Mass Recall of U.S. Ambassadors Leaves Unprecedented Global Vacancies
Almost 30 envoys are being recalled, some from countries where President Trump has lauded U.S. efforts to end armed conflicts.

The case was built poorly from the start, and Willis did not help with her behavior. Not surprising it didn't go anywhere.
But to say that it is “not illegal to question or challenge election results” is BS. Questioning the results is one thing; attempting a coup another.

Last year I stopped posting on X because I didn't like the tone of the discussion anymore. I created accounts on Mastodon, Threads, and Bluesky, thinking at least one of them would become my new habitual way to post. What happened instead is that I pretty much stopped posting anywhere.

I was very skeptical when Trump announced his proposal for Israel and Palestine. I said I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
Well, looks Iike I was wrong, and I am happy about it.

It says something about the state of our political discourse that the 9/11 anniversary is not the top trending topic.
We should never forget, and we should strive to build a better world, more united, with no room for tragedies like that.
