"In relation to Israels military operations in Gaza, we conclude that Israeli authorities are responsible for war crimes.. including extermination.. murder, using starvation as a method of war, forcible transfer.."
The UN Human Rights Council report published today is damning.

Ataturk is the George Washington of Turkey. Secularist; Defeated Churchill at Gallipoli; the Turkish contingent of UN Command in the Korean War was because of Ataturk's relationship with MacArthur. By the way Churchill was a racist. Are you going to boycott shows about him?

In Taiwan last summer, I met with every senior leader there, including President Tsai. Not a single person said, 'the US is distracted with Ukraine & needs to focus more on Taiwan.' Instead, they understood why a defeat of Putin in Ukraine enhanced Taiwan's security.

You two are an unlikely pair but a lot of us appreciate that you're both not only able to see a massive divide-and-conquer social engineering project for profit and control, but to do something about it. It has been insidious at pitting people against each other: families too.

US Congress votes on Burma Bill tomorrow morning; urge all congress for victory: these Myanmar citizens, with me at Cooperative University, Sagaing in 2019; are in the same province where soldiers are burning houses. We can save them from authoritarianism in the spirit of Ukraine

is a piece of excrement. That's clear in this and many other videos of him. Just a nasty, manipulative, unpleasant person who is obviously working for somebody else's agenda for CA$H. That's why he and his whole entourage need to be flushed like turds out of office.
Please President Joe Biden, if the USA stands for anything can you use what influence you have to call on the soldiers of the Myanmar Army to stop burning families alive. Thank you in the name of all that is decent.

for his good journalism, a lot of which has been excellent, but I don't like the arrogance of saying he can win every argument every time. Show some humility or you'll be taught humility.
In one of his best-ever articulations, Mike Benz explains in great detail how the

family has been using US government foreign policy for personal gain since
#JoeBiden
was a Senator as member & chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. It is accurate & sickening.
How the Biden family uses the Pentagon, the State Dept & the CIA to secure & protect their own private investments.

I agree that journalists should express themselves without fear, so its time to drop the charges against Julian Assange, otherwise all your tweets about journalists doing their jobs make you look like monkeys.
We are dismayed by reports of journalists charged for doing their job. People in Myanmar and around the world should be free to express their beliefs and to seek, receive, and share information and ideas. Journalists must be free to report without fear.
