I will never own a pair of Nike shoes again. As well, I will look down on anyone I see wearing them.
Nike co-founder Phil Knight makes record-setting donation to help elect Republicans
It is the single largest donation Knight has made to an Oregon candidate or political action committee.

We should recognise the culpability of the USA, UK, Australia and all the other participants in recent conflicts in making people's home countries unsafe.
"Mahmood said a raft of tough immigration controls were designed to unlock “the inherent openness, tolerance and generosity” of the British people."

Such nauseating shamelessness.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

As an 'older person' I think it's high time we put an upper age limit on politicians. Young people are the future - let them guide it 🧡

The USA never ratified the Rome Treaty. The International Criminal Court doesn't have jurisdiction over US nationals. You folks are going to have to fix this yourselves.
Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.
