At the recent NATO Summit, Trump went all in on the crazy. He demanded Greenland, again. He chastised Spain. He called Iranians scum and said the cease fire was over. He promised to bomb every bridge and every water desalination plant in Iran—both of which are war crimes. And during an interview with Ukraine s Zelenskyy, [ ]
“It sucks for you, but we’re not gonna pass a tax on your citizens without them deciding,” Kicklighter said. “If they let their citizens vote on it and their citizens approve it, it’ll be approved by this county commission.” The above is from a WTOC article that covered a Chatham County commission decision to deny [ ]
I m writing a bigger piece on the Anthropic class action lawsuit, but I thought I d do a quick update on the final settlement hearing yesterday. Well, that was interesting.
