The Trump administration’s rush to declare Ms. #Good and Mr. #Pretti at fault for instigating violence
was quickly undercut by a barrage of viral videos.
⭐️But a New York Times review of the other shootings found that similar claims by officials fell apart more quietly when the cases went to court

Good Morning #Canada
Sunday mornings should include some relaxation, a good cup of coffee, and a tale of one man forging a legacy of independence. Today we present to you the story of American businessman Russell Arundel who, in 1949, claimed sovereignty over approximately 4 acres of Outer Bald Tusket Island, off the southern tip of Nova Scotia. After purchasing the island for $750, Arundel announced the principality of Outer Baldonia with its own charter, a flag, currency, passports, and an organized military that consisted of 69 fishermen (all Admirals). Citizens of the principality who caught a Bluefin tuna and paid a $50 fee were accorded the rank of prince. Government officials included Prince of Princes Russell Arundel, Chancellor Elson Boudreau, and Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary Ron Wallace. The Canadian government mostly ignored the farce but an official Russian communication declared Outer Baldonia a fascist state.

European leaders emerged divided and torn as they tried to welcome the ejection of Venezuela’s authoritarian president,
-- but still uphold the principles of international law that did not appear to allow Trump to capture Nicolšs Maduro,
let alone declare that the US will run Venezuela and control its oil industry.
Europe tried to focus on the principle of a democratic transition, pointing out that the continent had not recognised Maduro as the legitimate leader of Venezuel…

Not to mention, the U.S flag in the right-hand image appears to have the wrong number of stars and/or stripes [AI-generated?].

I think you wouldn't believe me if I said this fox took my camera and took this picture and then run off to the woods but you might believe that it drove my car back to my den and also that my backpack functions as a "tail" that counterweights the camera and helps me stay foxy

In the statement he made to investors and media today, Sarandos said, “I’d say right now, you should count on everything that is planned on going to the theater through Warner Bros. will continue to go to the theaters through Warner Bros.” He added, “But our primary goal is to bring first-run movies to our members, because that’s what they’re looking for.” Not exactly a ringing declaration of loyalty to the religion of cinema.

The Trump administration announced on Monday that
all foreign-made drones and their components
posed “unacceptable risks to the national security of the United States”
and would be put on a federal blacklist of equipment makers prohibited from selling their goods freely in the country.
A fact sheet released by the Federal Communications Commission left some room for exceptions.
The Pentagon or the Department of Homeland Security can clear a drone or component fo…
