"We see the same trends globally: rule of law abused by those in control, free media silenced, critics imprisoned, and societies pushed towards authoritarian rule and militarisation."

Nobel indeed.

Please focus on María Corina Machado Parisca, not on the orange monster.

She won because of her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela & for her struggle to achieve a just & peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.

If my "it's bullshit" isn't convincing enough, here's a good @lawfaremedia.org piece explaining... it's bullshit

Next Up: Letitia James

It’s hard to imagine a worse case than the one against James Comey—until you see the one against the attorney general of New York.

Was too busy admiring the bricks & marvelling at the fact cars can drive over the Roman road paving beneath the Arco Felice (Bacoli) this evening to take a photo of the Roman arch but it seems forgivable all things considered.

Here’s an 1896 photo instead (fotografia.cultura.gov.it/iccd/item/MP...)

A sepia photo of the 20m high 6m wide Roman arch straddling the basalt paved via Domitiana

I get a bit of a coconutty floral in there, maybe from the gorse flower. As it dries down the deep, rich green rowan and ivy settle over the florals and herbs. The oil itself is warm on the skin. I didn't slather it on...so it stayed close. I wish I had purchased a bottle.... P2 of 2.
