The hero who disarmed one of the terrorists in Sydney turned out to be 43-year-old Ahmed al-Ahmed — a fruit shop owner and father of two.
He was shot twice and is currently in hospital. He is scheduled to undergo surgery.
He had no experience with weapons of any kind.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.
They are openly saying this.
Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

🚨Arresting US citizens who have not broken any laws is now acceptable practice in the United States of America. The only thing worse than being ICE is pretending that you don’t see what is happening to our neighbors. She isn’t a hero, she’s an American. 🇺🇸

Maduro, somehow one of the only brutal dictators that hasn't become a Trump BFF. That said, there must be something between POTUS giving the dictator foot massages in the Oval Office and the US military launching a ground assault on his country. We need to demand better from our stable genius.

This is exactly what churches should be doing, calling out injustice.
📌 Lake Street Church Nativity: a bold social justice statement with ICE-like Roman soldiers, the Virgin Mary in a gas mask, baby Jesus zip-tied, Joseph on the ground, pushing viewers to think about immigration.

not only did they pull out of the competition, they are not airing eurovision on any broadcasting channels in these countries either.

The President Who Never Grew Up
Instead of focusing on governing, Trump spends his days chasing entertainment, attention and renovation projects that reflect a presidency stuck in adolescence.

The boat strikes are illegal. Dope couriers are not military combatants. So killing them with air strikes instead of arresting them is murder. It’s that simple.

Journalists should reframe how they ask Mike Johnson questions. Perhaps something like:
Speaker Johnson, you probably haven't heard about [big story, that he's DEFINITELY heard about], so here is a quick summary of the events. Can you please comment on the legality of this, etc.?
