@elizabet95534 @RoyalFamily The King is sicker than people realise. It’s the cancer not the stress of the job.
English

@RoyalFamily This picture makes me sad. Look at the 105-year-old man with color in his face and an easy smile. King Charles’s complexion is grey, his face filled with stress from two selfish spares who should be supporting him, not destroying him.

The King this morning received Flight Lieutenant Colin Bell for an audience at Buckingham Palace.
Now 105 years old, Flt Lt Bell was a RAF Mosquito pilot during World War II. He gave a book about his experiences to His Majesty today.
During the audience, The King presented Flt Lt Bell with the citation to his Distinguished Flying Cross, which was originally awarded to him by King George VI in 1945.

@Charles07788205 @davidhogg111 You allowed your politicians to print money to cover deficits. Time to pay the piper

@davidhogg111 We've been paying our taxes longer than you have been alive. In the last 14 years I've watched the property taxes on one little property I own increase by 400%.
Time for your generation to start bearing the load.

I love older Americans but this is wrong. Young people will be further crushed by the debt boomers are leaving us with for decades to come. These regressive policies are detrimental to the future of young Americans and our country.

With property taxes going up year after year, Michigan seniors deserve stability. They’ve worked hard and earned the right to relief in their golden years. freep.com/story/news/pol…

@visegrad24 hoarding gold doesn’t buy trust, it just signals fear. real strength comes from institutions people believe in, not metal in vaults.

@CurtW80685656 @archeohistories The country is Türkiye. Don’t use the bastardized version. Spent two weeks there last year. A wonderful country

@archeohistories Since writing in English why not just write "Turkey"? If you were writing about Germany would you say Deutschland each time?

The US has recently repatriated to Türkiye, one of Rome's most important surviving artifacts, the bronze statue of Emperor Marcus Aurelius (2nd Century AD). The statue, which was smuggled out of Türkiye, holds a special place in ancient history due to its rare depiction of Aurelius as a philosopher.
This headless bronze statue, recently repatriated from the United States to Turkey, is one of the rare surviving bronzes of Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher-emperor of Rome. Dating to the 2nd Century AD, it depicts Aurelius not as a warrior or ruler, but in the simple draped robes of a philosopher, a reminder of his enduring legacy as the “Stoic emperor.”
Marcus Aurelius ruled from 161-180 AD, a period marked by war, plague, and constant pressure on the empire’s frontiers. Yet he is remembered most for his Meditations, a collection of Stoic reflections written during military campaigns. Few Roman emperors left behind such a personal record of thought, and even fewer were memorialized in art emphasizing wisdom over power.
Most ancient bronzes were melted down for reuse, making this statue a rare survival. Smuggled out of Turkey decades ago, its return highlights the growing movement to repatriate looted antiquities to their places of origin.

@acoyne And Canada sold Lsda cars from the U. S. S. R. They were cheap and dependable

I love my friends in Canada, but they will live to regret the day they let the Chinese Communist Party flood the market with their EVs!

@KeithOlbermann Find a spoke person who who uses proper grammar and knows the difference between compliment and complement. Words are her business. She should know better if you were competent.

@cselley Cheaper than parking in New York for the weekend if you own a car. Cheaper than renting and parking a car.
This is life now, Chris. A big Mac combo is close to $20. Used to be $3.99
I toured all of Poland by train for less than $251 in the 90s.

He deserved better treatment by his party, and his prime minister.

@MichaelBen2801 @rolandparis You obviously don’t listen to any news. Lots of examples of harassment of students in U. S. and being deported illegally.

@Loksmiff @PeteButtigieg Goldberg didn’t leak any information. He leaked the fact that they were using an unsecure line to discuss highly confidential classified military matters. Goldberg did not release details which he certainly could have.
English

It's not classified at all. Let me ask you. If it's classified, why isn't Jeffrey Goldberg being prosecuted for leaking classified information to the public? Why do we have congressmen welding posters that include "classified" material in a public hearing? Oh, that's right, because NOTHING was classified.

Dave is right on this. It's not a left or right thing. This was a massive screwup and a real security failure. So why is the President, who used to fire people for fun on reality TV, not firing the people who made this mess?
