When President Trump decided to pull the U.S. out of the “Paris Agreement” accord to rein in carbon emissions in June last year, his French counterpart had a withering comeback. He promptly launched an initiative to urge France to step up and lead the fight on global warming, around the slogan “Make Our Planet Great Again.” The message to some was clear; France’s “Libération” newspaper splashed two English words across its cover: “Goodbye America.” But on Monday, when Macron begins a three-day state visit to Washington, the message will be a far warmer “bonjour America.” In what some French see as a virtual bear hug of the U.S., Macron and his wife Brigitte will dine with the Trumps on Monday evening at George Washington’s mansion in Mount Vernon, Virginia, and on Tuesday evening Trump will lavish on Macron the first glittering White House state dinner of his presidency.

  • Mitch McConnell: We Need To Protect Alito, Not Criticize Him
    The Daily Dot, Wednesday - 05/22/2024 - 05:57 AM

    Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was asked about the report last week that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito had flown a “Stop the Steal” solidarity flag at his house during the period in which the court was considering 2020 election cases. Let’s be clear: Alito was not flying a pro-Trump flag but an anti-democracy, pro-insurrection flag.

  • Jared Moskowitz & Jamie Raskin HILARIOUSLY(!) WRECK James Comer
    The Daily Dot, Wednesday - 05/22/2024 - 05:56 AM

    I PROMISE you that you're rarely--if ever--seen anything as funny in politics as what Reps. Jared Moskowitz and Jamie Raskin do to known purveyor or Russian propaganda, James "Gomer Pyle. In classic GOP fashion, Comer held a hearing on a ridiculous, waste-of-time poltical stunt, holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt (I might do it myself, tbh, for the fact insurrectionists like MTG and Jim Jordan still sit in hearings participating, un-indictedbut I digress).

    Denver Post, Tuesday - 05/21/2024 - 11:51 PM

    COMMERCE CITY —  Evergreen girls soccer was a No. 14 seed entering the state tournament and had not won a championship in 27 years. But the Cougars clearly didn’t care about either of those factors, running the table to the 2024 Class 4A title that finished with a 2-0 victory over Lutheran on Tuesday night at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. “Early in the year we had a lot of difficult, testing games that showed us what we weren’t good enough at,” Evergreen head coach Peter Jeans said.

  • Trump’s lawyers rested their case after calling just 2 witnesses. Experts say that’s not unusual
    Denver Post, Tuesday - 05/21/2024 - 07:29 PM

    By PHILIP MARCELO (Associated Press) NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump’s legal team rested its case Tuesday in his hush money trial after calling just two witnesses and opting not to have the former president take the stand in his own defense. But despite what Hollywood courtroom dramas might suggest, that isn’t all that unusual, according to criminal defense lawyers and former prosecutors. The reason is simple: Prosecutors need to prove their case, while the defense only has to show there’s reasonable doubt their client committed a crime.
