1/ Collective punishment of tens of thousands of vetted Afghan partners won’t prevent radicalization. But it will guarantee fewer allies, more enemies, and higher risks for U.S. troops the next time we deploy.

The alleged shooting by an Afghan ‘partner’ shouldn’t condemn all who assisted the U.S. and now live here.

Hang on, a pause is by definition temporary. Permanent is the opposite of temporary. “Permanent pause” is an oxymoron, a contradiction. If you want to be president of the US, don’t you think you should learn English, @realDonaldTrump ?

An diesem Tag, an dem ich seit 12 Jahren krebsfrei bin (hab ich das schon erwähnt? ☺️🎀) möchte ich auch darauf hinweisen, dass Impfungen gegen Krebs schützen und sogar die Krebstherapie unterstützen können. Hört sich komisch an, is aber so. Lasst euch impfen!
Corona-Impfung schützt das Immunsystem – auch gegen Krebs | MDR.DE
Eine neue Studie zeigt: mRNA-Impfstoffe gegen Corona könnten das Immunsystem so aktivieren, dass Immuntherapien bei Krebs besser wirken.

Trump's speech about the shooting in DC veered into him attacking the Somali community in Minnesota, which of course had nothing to do with the shooting. Gives away his bigoted game.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

We knew Ningaloo’s coral bleaching was severe. But what we found 6 months later was still a shock
Mounting evidence shows the state of coral reefs is worsening despite concerted local conservation. The answer is public pressure for meaningful climate action.
