Capitol rioters clamor for payouts from Trump's 'anti-weaponization' fund
Many of the convicted rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, are clamoring for payouts from the nearly $1.8 billion settlement that the Trump administration has set up for people claiming to be victims of a weaponized government.

Some are staking claims to the money even though the government hasn…

Donald Trump sued his niece Mary Trump, The New York Times, several journalists and ABC in September 2021.
The original complaint alleged the defendants engaged in an “insidious plot” that was “motivated by a personal vendetta and their desire to gain fame.”
Trump’s lawyers argued that the group of journalists from The New York Times “relentlessly sought out” his niece to persuade her to “smuggle” records to the newspaper.

France to send its last captive orcas to marine park, not sanctuary
The French government recently announced it has greenlit a plan to send its last captive cetaceans — two orcas and 12 dolphins — to zoos and entertainment parks in Spain.

"Eine wichtige Rolle dabei spielt die Initiative 706. Sie geht auf ein Jugendzentrum im Pekinger Universitätsviertel zurück und hat mittlerweile einige Ableger in Europa. Xiyu ist seit elf Jahren in Deutschland und hat die Gruppe in Berlin 2021 mitgegründet. Der Name leitet sich von der Hausnummer des Zentrums in Peking ab. Das 2012 gegründete Hostel dort entwickelte sich über die Jahre zum Ort des Austauschs für Studierende und Denker, um gesellschaftliche Themen zu diskutieren."

Days before Trump left office in 2021, the State Department broke ground on an $850 million construction project at its aging embassy in New Delhi.
By last fall, alongside work on smaller buildings, crews had dug a 200-foot-long pit for the project’s centerpiece:
a sleek edifice of glass and stone that was supposed to make the biggest U.S. mission in South Asia more “secure and resilient.”
In recent months, without public announcement, the U.S. government canceled that buil…
