This canโ€™t quite dismissed as a one-off

As US Ambassador to the Netherlands, Pete Hoekstra caused a national controversy hosting a private event for the Dutch far-right party FvD (this is a party that is even more extreme than Geert Wildersโ€™ PVV)

As an overt threat to the long-term survival of the human community, denial of Covid-19 is as dangerous as Covid-19 itself. As long as most people continue to deny the extreme damage that results from the uncontrolled spread of Covid-19, conditions of ongoing harm will inevitably worsen.

NOAA hurricane hunters flying aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft ("Kermit") are monitoring Hurricane Melissa as most aircraft steer clear. The storm poses a catastrophic threat to Jamaica and Haiti.

The crew are among the many federal workers working without pay during the US government shutdown.

Itโ€™s amazing how so many Trump supporters who have never left the United States know so much about the day to day life and culture of people in countries all over the world.

Weโ€™re taking our campaign to every corner of the state, to communities Democrats havenโ€™t been in the past. This race is bigger than just the Democratic Party.

Weโ€™re grateful to have the opportunity to listen and learn from all voters. Consider joining us in Milton on Monday! https://bit.ly/4nkEhQU

Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

I believe that is called "Better to beg forgiveness than ask permission" . Amazing how there just never seems to be a reckoning or even ounce of accountability for this president or his administration.
