Remind me: when you bomb an elementary school, lure the survivors into a false sense of safety, and then bomb the survivors, leaving behind dozens and dozens of dead school children... are you the good guys?

I strongly condemn the reckless strike on a UNIFIL base in southern Lebanon that has left a number of Ghanaian peacekeepers seriously injured.

The role of peacekeepers is sacrosanct, and all should go above and beyond to prevent them from coming into harm’s way.

I would like to pay tribute to the courage, resilience, and professionalism of the Irish peacekeepers who came to the aid of their Ghanaian colleagues today.

I have been briefed on the latest situation, and all Irish personnel serving in Lebanon remain safe and accounted for.

Micheál Martin has made Ireland complicit in a genocide by allowing our airspace to be used for the transport of war matériel, and he cannot call Israel's genocide or their illegal war, waged together with the U.S., for what they are.
The worst "leader" Ireland has ever had by a country mile.

💔Less than two years ago, this part of the cemetery wasn't half full. To think it has now reached capacity, and the accompanying grief that implies, clearly illustrates the desperate human suffering Russia is inflicting every single day.

President Trump's Pardons: An Embarrassment of Riches At least the specter of corruption in previous presidential administrations (Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich or Biden’s pardon of his son) appeared to be an exception to the rule. Today, however, the ev...

Trump’s second term pardons have forgiven criminal debts of $1.5 billion. “Allies protected, donors rewarded, DOJ undermined, and election norms threatened. Corruption looks less like an exception and more like the rule.”

I am so incredibly disappointed and disgusted by this. The Trump Administration's goal of isolating Cuba is going to have immense reverberation, and the 🇯🇲govt's capitulation might have spared them in this moment, but it is going to harm Jamaicans now and later. Ah couldn't Queen Nanny Jamaica dis.

With gas prices soaring, some people might search for cheaper transportation options. In many cites, a bicycle is a cheap and easy way to get around gas free. Give it a try.

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy.

We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.

AOC: “That’s one reason he must be removed from office - if the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this admin that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”

BYD’s Second-Generation Blade Battery Makes Western EV Tech Look Ancient The battery can add a staggering amount of range in under 10 minutes. Here's just how quick it is, and how it compares to the best Western designs.

The latest EV batteries from BYD can charge to 70% in 5 minutes and 97% in 10 minutes.

They're leaving American manufacturers in the dust, and after Trump's all-out war on renewables and EVs, we may never catch up. China is probably going to supply the world.

Trump cut off supplies of Sidewinder missiles for Ukraine’s F-16s, which limited their ability to prevent Russian strikes on Ukraine’s cities during the dead of winter when Putin ramped up attacks. And yet, when we need help with interceptor drones for Iran, Ukraine offered them without hesitation.

I’ve noticed something unsettling these past days – more people have been cancelling their support.

Perhaps it reflects the difficult situation in the world overall.
I don’t blame anyone.

I’m simply grateful to those who stay with me and help me speak about Ukraine.
