As it turns out, a farmer was driving away and a police officer started firing his gun aiming at the unarmed farmer. #Dutch media claims the police just fired warning shots. #boereninopstand #politiegeweld

Following a decree by Volodymyr Zelensky, the Communist Party of Ukraine was permanently banned by a Lviv court.
As the party's assets, buildings and funds were forcibly transferred to the state, Zelensky appealed for more weapons to defend democracy. https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/w/communist-party-of-ukraine-banned-and-all-its-assets-seized-by-the-state

Great discussion, including a picking apart of the criminally fraudulent Douma 'chemical attack' narrative, where chlorine, a mediocre, at best, weapon, supposedly accounted for 40 odd bodies at the site via mechanisms that make zero sense. @PiersRobinson1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KubRAwn7-CM

Why would Putin do this?

Frank Hoogerbeets 🚜 @hobeets

And the #Dutch media claim there is too much footage in social media giving 'impressions' of police violence. Well, what would you call bringing on two service dogs to deliberately bite an already helpless detainee? This is Dutch #POLICE BRUTALITY and totally unnecessary.

As we celebrate 246 years of America, the world reminds us that freedom is a privilege and must be defended. I am grateful for all those that volunteer to serve and sacrifice so much to protect American freedom.

; John Bolton @AmbJohnBolton

The 2024 presidential contest has already begun. Our greatest strength is not our political leaders but the people. We are fully capable of safeguarding our way of life. Let’s see which candidates grasp that reality. There we will find the next President.

Radicals want to tear down American Greatness, but they will not win. All my life – as a soldier, business owner, Congressman, CIA Director, and as Sec of State – I’ve worked to defend, honor, and fight for the United States.

And I’m not finished. There is more work to be done.

; Mike Pompeo @mikepompeo

The American Dream is not something handed to us, like a gift, by government. It is something we alone can create and realize – and we can only do so in a nation that safeguards the God-given freedoms with which our Creator has blessed us.

The American Dream is alive, but we all need to come together as one people to restore it!

Since 2014 #EU has spent over 15 Billion Euro on Ukraine's 'Reform Process'- But only last September, the EU Court of Auditors found Ukraine to be the most corrupt country in Europe. Now Zelensky has banned 9 Opposition Parties + most Opposition Media - Is Ukraine a Democracy...?

The Apartheid State of #Israel fails to respect Human Rights + International Law. #US Empire fails to respect Human Rights + International Law. And the #EuropeanUnion is happy to turn a blind eye and call them "our like-minded partners"... https://twitter.com/jjz1600/status/1544027914450178049

Truly disgusting. After weeks of Israel’s lying, denying, & obfuscating, the US provides Israel w/additional cover by saying the murder of #ShireenAbuAqla was just “likely” an Israeli, but no evidence it was “intentional.”
So a shot in her head from 300 yards was an “oops?”

; BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom

The EU as an ideal has emerged as a kind of European promised land that even many on the European left believe in. But the left used to be critical of the EU. What explains that transformation?

Laila Dalton, a lead organizer of her local union at Starbucks, has been speaking out about being fired in retaliation.

Now, at an abortion rights action in Pheonix, Arizona she says that Starbucks is using the overturn of Roe V. Wade to manipulate workers out of unionizing.

“[The tragedies of border deaths] have been a central part of the strategy…People dying crossing the border? It’s a daily event.”

Journalist @memomiller explains how U.S. immigration policy is designed for death as “deterrence.”

; Assal Rad @AssalRad

No one actually believed Blinken’s pretense that the US would “follow the facts” on the killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.

Holding Israel accountable would mean holding the US itself accountable, because it helps pay for the bullets that killed her.

; Assal Rad @AssalRad

Democrat or Republican, the US govt has shown time & again that Israel can act with total impunity. Even when it *murders* an American journalist.
