Tienduizenden Albanezen demonstreren al weken tegen een luxe-resort dat Ivanka Trump wil laten bouwen op een van de laatste ongerepte kustgebieden van de Middellandse Zee. Dit is niet alleen een protest voor natuurbehoud en tegen corruptie, maar ook vóór de democratie. Lees verder: corr.es/79fe22

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)

Created by the Constitution, the State of the Union began as written reports. Woodrow Wilson revived in‑person delivery in 1913. It evolved into a prime‑time televised address where presidents outline priorities, report national conditions, and navigate increasingly polarized political theatre

NEW: Why is your personal data being put in harm’s way? The answer is simple: Trump wants to control who can vote in elections. The DOJ’s voter data scheme is nothing more than an attempt to incorrectly purge eligible voters from the rolls — all in the name of winning, Dan Vicuña writes.

Standing up to DOJ’s voter roll power grab

Why would the administration place your personal data in harm’s way? The answer returns to Trump’s Big Lie.

British far-right agitator Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson), previously barred from the US because of his long rap sheet, secured a visa and has met with Kari Lake, the self-proclaimed acting CEO of USAGM. He has recently been revealed to be in the pay of the Kremlin for decades.

Tommy Robinson was barred from the US. Trump's border force has now let him in

The anti-migrant activist reportedly received a visa hours before his flight departed

Left: President Trump criticises Alex Pretti, "You can't have guns, you can't walk with guns" Right: Alex Pretti had a legally concealed gun, it was never withdrawn, he had a phone in one hand and his other hand was raised to stop pepper spray

Alex Pretti’s cell phone is in one hand and his other hand is on the ground. Pretti was executed by Trump’s very own militia on the streets of Minneapolis. Case closed. Don’t look away.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

🚨 Another ICE murder in Minneapolis 😡 Reports from our organizers on the ground: ICE agents just shot and killed a legal observer in front of Glam Doll Donuts. A crowd of 300 observers are already being brutalized with chemical irritants and pepper ball sprays. Trigger Warning: graphic

The idea that a U.S. president would threaten to invade Greenland because Norway didn’t give him a Nobel Prize is pathetic. This has nothing to do with foreign policy. It’s a president acting like a narcissistic spoiled child because his feelings got hurt. Unacceptable.
