Suspect is reportedly an Afghan national. If I had not posted the original photo we would still have no idea about the perpetrator.

New concept for what just transpired with Biden stepping aside. Party Coup. Internal party machinations to coerce the sitting president to step aside, against his will, in order to benefit the party.

So many armchair “generals” assessing whether Ukraine can stop Russias invading army. I don’t know. You don’t know either. Can we all show a little humility in our ability to predict the future?

New York Times continues to expand its roster of russian journalists that "propel their deep coverage of the war in Ukraine", yet the number of articles about Ukraine written by Ukrainians is minuscule. Why @nytimes?
The New York Times hires Russian nationals for its “Russia team” to report on Russia’s genocidal invasion of Ukraine. Did many international newspapers during WWII employ German journalists or entrust coverage to a “Germany team”?

US piecemeal provision of kit to Ukraine a strategy of gradual escalation likely result of assessments indicating outright defeat of RU, which could be achieved quickly if more was given, not in the US interest as a destabilized #Russia is more dangerous.

The Soviet Union and the Russian Federation have always been imperialistic warmongers. Here's a BBC interview of Chechen woman from 1994. Nothing has changed since then.

Putin is ideological, emotional, and sometimes irrational. He is not crazy. He's already losing to the Ukrainian army. He will not escalate to provoke a war with the largest alliance in the world anchored by the most powerful military in the world.

Speaking of all the drama over cluster munitions for Ukraine. Let's resume this conversation when all those critics sitting in their comfortable air-conditioned offices somewhere in the West find themselves in a situation: - when their nations have to fight an existential war

John Adams, the second Potus, said that "Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, & murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide." Today, July 4, 2023, is a good day for Americans to commit to proving Adams wrong. #TheBillofObligations

Exiting the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin was asked what sort of government had been agreed to. His answer: "A republic, if you can keep it." Today it is less clear than at any time since the Civil War that we can.

Iran seems determined to provoke a deeper crisis in the Persian Gulf, as U.S. official reports Iran just boarded a British-flagged tanker and steered into lranian waters and is now boarding a second UK-owned tanker. US restraint will be harder to maintain. This is how wars start.

Should then whites or our current government asked about #reparations ? No one alive had anything to do with slavery
It's simple: No individual Muslim, Christian or Jew or anyone should feel obligated to condemn something that they had nothing to do with
