In dem Buch „Deutsch in Europa“ gibt es ein interessantes Kapitel zum Thema „Deutsch in Luxemburg“, vgl. elibrary.narr.digital/xibrary/medi... Hingewiesen sei auch auf das Wörterbuch „Luxemburger Standarddeutsch“. Darin finden sich z.B. folgende Wörter: Transportminister, Kirchenfabrik, Benevolat.

#LadyGaga does a cover of a well known (in the states) American kids TV show theme that's so fitting for #Minneapolis 'Won't you be my Neighbour' 💔

BREAKING: President Donald Trump warns the UK against getting into business with China, saying it would be "very dangerous."

He seems to have forgotten he has agreed to visit Beijing in April and invited Chinese President Xi Jinping for a state visit later next year

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.

They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

People who enjoy this (and are maybe a bit surprised) should REALLY look into the history of knitting/sewing and resistance. I think they might also enjoy that!
Staff at a Twin Cities yarn store put together a pattern for a red knit “Melt the ICE” hat inspired by the Norwegian resistance.

They thought they would attract 10 people to a weekly knit-along.

They’ve sold 70,000 copies, raising more than $250k for immigrant aid groups.

We invaded France and no one will sell us a croissant. It’s very hard on the men.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

I read about grandmother Zhenya, who froze to death in her apartment in Kyiv. She survived the Holocaust, but did not survive this winter. It turns out we were almost neighbors; she lived at Podil.

The latest poll on #Cymru carried out by YouGov:-#RhunapIorwerth, #PlaidCymru leader, has the highest approval rating AND also has the lowest disapproval. Almost 50% disapprove of #NigelFarage (he still refuses to name a leader for #Wales now that #NathanGill is in prison for his Russian work).
