Is this the right thread to talk about Trudeau apologizing for brown face? Or should I take this to spam?

Can't convince me he wasn't just cosplaying Mr. Popo in that middle picture.

Canadian researchers determine the "sonic weapon" that affected employees of the US embassy and Canadian diplomats in Cuba was actually the side effects of the Zika virus fumigation.

[Salodin]

But then why were so relatively few people affected? If it was the fumigation, everyone would be affected. I smell cover up.

Pretty surprised no one has posted about this yet, but HK police shot somebody today. They also escalated violence against aid workers, breaking arms and smashing knees. This is the worst turning point in the protests so far.

I'm sure Xi will receive another strongly worded letter by deeply concerned Western nations. The strongest of letters.

But congratulating terrible dictators/leaders is super on brand for him too. This is all so confusing.

[Andalusian girls]

he's extremely consistent in his inconsistency this should be no cause for confusion

[Andalusian girls]

it would be alarming if his output became the homogeneous result of a set of principled values

[zoobernut]

Good ole Boris at it again.

Just weeks after it was ruled his attempt to suspend parliament was unlawful he is trying it again.

Turkey has announced an invasion into Northern Syria and the US is going to abandon the Kurds that they've been training and operating with.

The White House announced late Sunday that Turkey will soon move forward with its planned military operation in northeast Syria in an area where U.S. troops have been deployed and operating with Kurdish-led forces.

The U.S. will not be involved in the operation, the White House said. President Trump spoke with Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdogan by telephone. U.S. troops will be moved from the area.

"The United States will not hold them for what could be many years and great cost to the United States taxpayer," the statement read. "Turkey will now be responsible for all ISIS fighters in the area captured over the past two years in the wake of the territorial “Caliphate” by the United States."

Erdogan said his country has given enough warning and have “acted with enough patience.” Erdogan has expressed frustration with Washington’s support for Kurdish groups in Syria.

[Cail]

So we're abandoning the Kurds again? That's not great
