“We are under attack by our own federal government,” says Democratic Congressmember for Illinois Delia Ramirez about Trump’s immigration crackdown in Chicago. “What we’re seeing is an agency that has gone rogue, that has been emboldened and that thinks that they’re above the law.” She urges Americans to report and record ICE activity to strengthen future legal battles, “because what ICE is stating and what we’re seeing in the community in the streets is inconsistent.” Congressmember Ramirez also comments on the ongoing federal government shutdown, ... continua

We speak with The New York Times opinion columnist M. Gessen, who says Putin is “fully invested in continuing this war forever.” The war on Ukraine “is not the kind of thing that you can roll back ... continua

As officials with Hamas say they will respond “soon” to President Trump’s ceasefire proposal to end Israel’s nearly two-year war on Gaza, brokered with Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, we look at the many other deals Witkoff and his family are involved with. A New York Times investigation reveals that when Witkoff, a real estate developer and longtime friend of Trump, began his new position as a diplomat in the Middle East, his son Alex took over his company, the Witkoff Group. Since then, not only has the Witkoff Group continued to ink major deals with ... continua

La bolla esamina la vita, spesso surreale, degli anziani all'interno di The Villages, la più grande comunità di pensionati d'America. La vita rilassata in pensione sotto il sole della Florida tutto l'anno, tuttavia, non è forse così idilliaca o gradita come gli spettatori potrebbero immaginare.
La bolla esamina in modo approfondito le esclusive esperienze, le convinzioni e la mentalità di sei memorabili residenti di The Villages: Toni e Roger, Jeanie e John, Terry e Toni. Intrecciando queste soddisfatte esistenze di pensionati con le ansie di diversi residenti ... continua

Un viaggio on the road racconta la conquista del Messico e dell'impero azteco compiuta da Hernán Cortés e il suo piccolo esercito.

The International Court of Justice ruled Wednesday that Israel, as an occupying power, must allow United Nations humanitarian aid into Gaza and may not use starvation as a method of warfare. In its advisory opinion, the World Court also found that Israel had failed to provide evidence for its claims that UNRWA, the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, lacks neutrality or that a significant number of its staff are affiliated with Hamas. Israel denounced the ruling and said it would not comply with the court’s instructions. The Trump administration also condemned the ... continua

Israel’s Knesset has advanced legislation that would effectively annex the West Bank, prompting rare criticism from the Trump administration, which says it does not support annexation. We get a report on the state of illegal settlement activity in the Palestinian territory from the Norwegian Refugee Council’s Jan Egeland, who has just returned from the occupied West Bank. “I think the settler movement felt they had a free hand to do whatever they wanted on the West Bank, and it happened in the shadows of the war in Gaza,” he says about the growth in ... continua
