The 9 members of Congress who missed this vote should all lose their jobs. If you can’t show up to work to stop a war, you aren’t fit to continue serving in Congress.
The Venezuela War Powers resolution has failed in a vote of 211-213, with nine members not voting. An absolute dereliction of duty from Congress.

Controversial election law changes pass final reading in Parliament. They’ve done it. This is voter suppression. How utterly undemocratic 😡 https://t.co/4tKZFhtEVN

The bill ends same-day voter enrolment, bans prisoners from voting, allows for larger anonymous political donations, and clarifies the ban on giving out food at voting places.

Wow absolutely insane. Australian feds were caught radicalizing an autistic Muslim 13 yr old boy with an IQ of 71, telling him that he should become a sniper & suicide bomber just so that they could entrap him for it. He never thought of doing so until they told him to
INSANE (audio fixed) The AFP (Australia's FBI) was grilled in Australian Parliament last year about inciting autistic Muslim children to become snipers and plant bombs. Were the alleged Bondi Beach shooters also incited by the AFP???

Been thinking about this tweet ever since I saw it. Mainstream American journalists think unilateral US sanctions are *the actual international law*, and anyone who tries to circumvent them is a criminal. These are the people who are informing the American public about the world.

A physician colleague from Canada tried to enter Palestine today to go into Gaza and volunteer as a medic. He was denied entry by an Israeli soldier, and was told by them that he could not be carrying in with him medications. The exact quote is “no life saving medications”.

Any Minister should be in hot water if found to have acted unlawfully. For a Minister of Justice, with an entire ministry at their disposal, it’s inexcusable. He should resign.

Harvard is upset about the fact their student journalists researched and found out one of their professors was heavily involved in Epstein’s human trafficking ring. Apparently, the real crime was that the students reported their findings… not the findings themselves.
NEW and BREAKING: Harvard officials are secretly investigating two students over their roles in drawing scrutiny to the relationship between Jeffrey Epstein and the school’s former president, Larry Summers, according to three people briefed on the matter.

Note how the US government's propaganda narrative has changed: First the Trump admin claimed it was waging war on Venezuela because of drugs -- a blatant lie (the US supports the worst drug traffickers in Latin America). Now they admit that this is actually because Venezuela
American sweat, ingenuity and toil created the oil industry in Venezuela. Its tyrannical expropriation was the largest recorded theft of American wealth and property. These pillaged assets were then used to fund terrorism and flood our streets with killers, mercenaries and drugs.

An industry built on debt, dodgy accountancy and exaggerated predictions on future returns hits reality. AI data centres are being refused financing.
Oracle's largest data center partner, Blue Owl Capital, will not provide funding for a $10 billion deal to build its next facility, a source said, amid growing concerns about the cloud computing company's rising debt and artificial intelligence spending https://t.co/gNvyjdHvid

Less than 24 hours after Trump announced he’s dismantling the nation’s climate science agency, the New York Times opinion page this morning blasted out this Matt Yglesias screed to millions of its liberal readers. That’s one hell of an editorial choice.

Trumps social media company is merging with a nuclear fusion company backed by Russia… Days after one of the top US nuclear fusion scientists was gunned down in his home…. wtf?!?
Trump’s social media company is attempting a $6 billion merger with a nuclear fusion company. TAE Technologies partnered with the UK’s atomic agency this month, has financial backing from the Russian gov, and hopes to see fusion power the AI revolution https://t.co/63e2MTXX84
