Beijing October 2005 near the Zhongnanhai leadership compound in Beijing. Taken from a taxi. One of my best photos. The composition turned out well by accident! I'm more of a snapshotist than a photographer.

一直以来中共都在抹黑李登辉是台独教父，十恶不赦，现实真是这样吗？05年4月，中华民国前总统李登辉接受台视《台湾论坛》专访。采访中他再次强调了民主自由对台湾的重要性，并抨击了国民党试图“联共”的荒谬想法。从发言中不难看出李对中共不满及警惕之情，绝非针对大陆同胞。

A Chinese diplomat saved over 4,000 Jews from the Holocaust by issuing visas, and nobody knew until a line in his obituary was investigated decades later. His daughter also wrote an extended obituary: As consul general in Vienna, after Adolf Hitler invaded Austria in 1938, Mr. Ho helped many Jews escape the Nazis by issuing them visas to China. In one particularly close call, Mr. Ho managed to stave off Gestapo agents at the door of a Jewish home where he had gone to deliver a visa.

@ImtiazMadmood Thanks, I looked up more with ChatGPT. 何鳳山 (Hé Fèngshān; older romanization: Ho Feng-shan or Feng-Shan Ho, 1901–1997) was a diplomat of the Republic of China. His best-known posting was as ROC consul-general in Vienna from 1938 to 1940. chatgpt.com/share/6a2d75e8…

Last week we celebrated the 82nd Anniversary of D-Day. 🇨🇦 One of the Canadians who landed on Juno beach mentioning what he thought was one of his life’s greatest accomplishments. You may remember him playing the character Scotty on Star Trek. The late James Doohan a true hero

Last night my friend @MaxwellFrostFL showed me Donald Trump’s Truth Social posting urging MAGA to expel me from Congress. Apparently Trump doesn’t appreciate our fight against his $1.776 billion slush fund or his outrageous attack against the Southern Poverty Law Center. Sorry, Mr. President, I’m not going anywhere but back to the front lines of the fight against corruption and authoritarianism.

O'BRIEN: Trump believed Ukraine had no cards, that he could bully Ukrainians into giving Putin very good deal. He didn't understand that Ukraine was developing their own capabilities and their willingness to fight. So, Trump failed for two reasons. First, Ukrainians adapted, and that wasn't expected by him. You can see there have been some changes in his rhetoric lately, where he has to grudgingly admit that Ukraine has actually done better. The United States completely underestimated Ukrainian resilience. Secondly, Trump thought Europeans would bully Ukraine along with him because they would be afraid of United States leaving NATO. He thought he could use NATO to push Europeans to force Ukraine to take a bad deal. Europeans eventually helped Ukraine more than he thought. They seem to understand that it's actually better for them to have Ukraine fight the war the way Ukraine wants. Trump didn't understand what Ukraine was capable of and he misjudged what Europeans would do.

“It’s time to wake the fuck up” Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Half of my fellow graduate students when I was getting my PhD were foreign nationals. Do you realize one third of all the Nobel Prizes in sciences won by Americans were won by immigrants to America? If you’re gonna trail the world in practically everything, including your economy, it’s time to wake the fuck up”

The Five Eyes alliance has sounded the alarm: Chinese operatives are using fake recruitment campaigns to lure government officials, military personnel, academics, and policy experts into espionage traps. Behind polished LinkedIn profiles and lucrative job offers lies a sophisticated intelligence-gathering operation designed to steal sensitive information, infiltrate institutions, and advance the CCP's global influence agenda. This is not business as usual. It is state-backed deception targeting the very people entrusted with protecting democratic societies. Stay vigilant. Expose the threat. Defend freedom. #CCP #China #ChineseEspionage #FiveEyes #NationalSecurity #CounterIntelligence #CyberSecurity #ForeignInterference #Democracy #HumanRights #IndoPacific #SecurityThreat #DigitalEspionage #StandWithFreedom

"You're a masked agent kidnaping people wearing my f*cking uniform! Bringing shame to it!" -Bobby, a U.S. veteran, yells at militarized ICE agents after they just tear gassed protesters outside Delaney Hall ICE prison. Our @JTCestkowski reports LIVE ⬇️

He knows that Ukraine will soon become one of the most dynamic economies in Europe once Putins barbaric invasion ends. He’s a smart guy.

Ken Paxton’s own party impeached him. His own staff reported him to the FBI. Now his own defense attorney is endorsing our campaign. Those closest to Ken Paxton know he's unfit for office.

“We have more than one Constitution,” says legal scholar Melissa Murray. “So there's the 1787 original Constitution. There's the Reconstruction amendments, which fundamentally alter the document in a number of ways, shifting power from the states to the federal government, recognizing that the states as much as the federal government could impose upon the rights of the people. That's a really important shift that happens with the Reconstruction amendments.” Check out the interview on PBS, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts.

.@JamesTalarico: There's been a lot of talk in this race about what it means to be a real man. Recently on the campaign trail I told the story of my adoptive dad, Mark Talarico. Every Saturday morning, he would mow our lawn, and then without anyone asking him to, he would go next door and mow our neighbor's lawn because she was a widow. My dad never talked about it — he just did it, because that's what a man does. A man takes responsibility, upholds his commitments to his family and his neighbors, and does what's right, even when no one is watching. Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life, sell their soul to the highest bidder, or steal from other people in order to enrich themselves. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves. I welcome this debate about what it means to be a man, and I don't think Ken Paxton or Ted Cruz are in a position to tell anybody what a real man is.

#BREAKING: Carol Leonnig: “…what we were hearing last night…was that the Ohio Organizing Collaborative…one of its offices in Cleveland was targeted and raided by FBI agents yesterday. In addition to that, what we learned was that a series of FBI agents were fanning out across the state…to interview people and approach them at their homes, who had worked as volunteers registering voters, or as canvassers for the collaborative, and those interviews, if you can call them that, were conducted often WITHOUT warrants…So FBI agents were essentially just going into people’s homes and saying we’d like to ask you a few questions, which is NOT how the FBI normally investigates these kinds of matters…their great concern is that this is part of a larger Trump administration effort to basically target swing states and to target pro democracy organizations who might register Democratic voters, or help them register to vote, and question and sow distrust in those swing states in the integrity of the elections.” 😳

First, @SecKennedy refused to pay the legal non-profits representing unaccompanied minors for work they did per a contract. Now, @SecMullinDHS is sending federal agents to ambush their offices and demand confidential client records without a warrant. This is disgusting intimidation and a massive waste of time, resources, and money. The cruelty of this administration targeting the most vulnerable along us is repulsive and un-American.

In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism. It perfectly explains Nigel Farage, Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the entire Right.

Taoiseach of Ireland Micheál Martin: It's a particular honour to welcome PM Carney to Ireland today. In fact, we are not just welcoming him to Ireland, we are welcoming him home. PM Carney, you are the grandson of immigrants who left Ireland a little over 100 years ago.
