This guy was a hero of mine, who helped shape my fledgling political awareness.

TRB were never really 'Punk', but they caught the attitude and delivered some hard-rocking music with lyrics that spoke to me.

"For many European governments, including America’s longest-standing and most loyal allies, Trump’s threat of punitive tariffs against anyone who tries to stop him taking Greenland was the final straw."

"Divorce, they believe, is now inevitable."

With NATO thrown into question, some officials see the “coalition of the willing” as the basis for a new alliance without the U.S.

We've heard a number of reports now of DHS agents at Whipple confiscating arrestees' phones and refusing to return them. Talked with a guy several nights ago who said they wouldn't give his back, and there were more reports of it last night. Just something to keep in mind/be aware of.

Oh you finally figured out that Michael Cohen is bad? What gave it away -- the lifelong mafia ties, the pedophile coverup, or the ceaseless grifting?

Everyone who boosted him should be ashamed. You went on his show for fame. You could have said no. I said no multiple times. But you have no ethics.

EU is preparing a form of “lightweight membership” for Ukraine under an accelerated model, the FT reports.

Ukraine would initially have no voting rights at summits or ministerial meetings, while gradually gaining access to the single market, agricultural subsidies, and development funding.

What makes this statement by Emmanuel Macron so unprecedented is, for the first time, a leading European ally is equating Trump with Putin.

“No intimidation or threat will influence us - neither in Ukraine, nor in Greenland, nor anywhere else in the world.”

EVERYTHING has changed.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
