Deforestation in Italy had become so severe by the Emperor Augustus’ time that wealthy Romans were importing timber from 1000 miles away for their villas

Dendrochronological evidence for long-distance timber trading in the Roman Empire

An important question for our understanding of Roman history is how the Empire’s economy was structured, and how long-distance trading within and between its provinces was organised and achieved. More...

This is the Rood Approach, a sensory stimulation technique used to activate weak muscles after stroke. Trump has had a wonky right leg since his mystery visit to Walter Reed in September 2020. This 2020 clip shows circumduction gait, in which the weak leg is dragged in a semicircle after a stroke.

Trump is now openly offering bribes for votes, paid with taxpayer funds from the US Treasury. More than a trillion, on midterms. Imagine the bribes that will be offered in the presidential cycle. There is no moral bottom. There is only corruption holding MAGA together now. They must be defeated.

The Associated Press@apnews.com · yesterday

President Donald Trump pledged to send every American adult $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections. The promise, made at the GOP's midterm convention in Dallas, could cost over $1 trillion and would require congressional approval.

The reason why they think their voters are this dumb and gullible is because they are.

These are the indicative estimates of Russia’s combat losses as of Sept. 10, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

For 25 years, City Hall buried 68 cardboard boxes full of explosive 9/11 records. 170,000 pages just went live—and an internal memo proves leaders knew the toxic air was poisoning Americans while telling everyone it was safe. The evidence will sicken you:

They Wrote It Down. Seriously.

City Hall’s lawyers made a list, then tracked who came looking for it. Plus: an HHS study that only asked about one side’s violence, and the clipboard that beat Trump.

Accusing others of ‘confrontation’ is a bold choice when your own state is launching near-constant missile and drone barrages at Ukrainian cities.

On 17 July 2014, Russia shot down Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine, killing all 298 people on board. Among the victims were 196 Dutch nationals. In 2025, both the European Court of Human Rights and the ICAO Council found Russia responsible for it.

An explosive drone appears at a German airport. Germany investigates and formally attributes the operation to Russian state agencies. Russia calls the accusation a “baseless provocation” and Germany’s response an ʼunprecedented escalationʼ.
