The resumption of operations at U.S. Embassy Caracas is a key milestone in implementing the president's three phase plan for Venezuela and will strengthen our ability to engage directly with Venezuela's interim government, civil society, and the private sector.

Loni in Uttar Pradesh was the world's most polluted city in 2025, while New Delhi was reported as the most polluted capital city globally, according to IQAir.

"We're here to clearly stand against dragging our country onto the path of Slovakia and Hungary," said Mikulas Minar, the head organizer from the Million Moments for Democracy group.

We Americans who will protect our flag should have a voice in where it is flown. Despite his unimpeachable record of heroism and patriotism, he was disparaged and mocked by his government and the corporate press.

The election will also decide which direction the Alpine nation will take on foreign policy, especially given the wildly divergent views on Israel and Palestine.

If we ever needed help, they won't be there for us. I've just known that for a long period of time... We have some that are really enthusiastic. They're coming already... My attitude is, we don't need anybody. We're the strongest nation in the world. We have the strongest military by far in the world we don't need them.

The tumultuous style that Trump brings to election campaigns, dealing with Congress and global trade relations has now been imported to the theatre of war. For as the conflict with Iran enters its third week, impacting nearly every corner of the Middle East and causing economic tremors around the world, Trump has emerged as America's commander-in-chaos.

There is no doubt that there is a swath of the American public that is a typically younger piece of the puzzle that is very skeptical of the American projection of power abroad. Younger Republicans tend to look more askance at it. They don't remember the Cold War. They don't think as highly of what America could do abroad.

Affordability has been, understandably, the watchword for Democratic candidates over the last year. After downplaying inflation under Joe Biden, the party learned a brutal lesson when Donald Trump rode the cost-of-living crisis back to the White House in 2024. In 2025, Zohran Mamdani put affordability at the center of his own campaign and surged from the back of the pack to City Hall.

Do not join or remain in the United States Military. Trump has betrayed America and expects you to die for Israel. There is no honor in being led by dishonorable men to your death.

Nigel Farage is set to meet Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago mansion on Friday to discuss Sir Keir Starmer's Chagos Islands deal, as the war in the Middle East escalates. Mr Trump has dramatically U-turned on his support for Sir Keir's controversial agreement in recent weeks, at one point describing it as an act of great stupidity.

In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department. Madison, the primary author of the Constitution, emphasized that vesting war powers in Congress rather than the President represented a crucial safeguard against concentrated executive authority and the potential for individual flaws in judgment affecting national security decisions.

Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people. The notion that a President can plunge the United States into a regional war in one of the most volatile places on earth - without even briefing Congress, much less securing its authorization - is irreconcilable with the text, structure, and history of the Constitution.

Piers Morgan, who has sort of made a mockery of the entire industry by putting on screen whatever dregs are still willing to go on [his show]... He had on Dave Smith, who has, you know, apparently, his job is to never tell jokes but to instead, give poorly-informed foreign policy takes... And to also hate America.

Sadly, we found that despite progress in some areas, the government's reset is languishing, suffering from a lack of direction, definition and drive. It feels as though we are on a journey with no clear destination. In many areas, the government has failed to provide timelines, milestones or priorities, and it does not appear to have an ambitious, strategic vision for the UK's new relationship with the EU.

Something had to be done, and it's been 47 years. They've been killing people all over the world for a long time. They were the kings and fathers of the roadside bomb. [Qasem] Soleimani- we killed him last term. If we didn't, I think it might be a different story today. They would have been much stronger and smarter than they are.

White genocide' Carl is a right-wing firebrand who played a minor role in the first Trump administration and has more recently gained, depending on your vantage, kudos or notoriety for his theory that Anti-White Racism Is Tearing America Apart, as his book's subtitle puts it. He believes, for example, that a White genocide is underway and endorses the Great Replacement Theory (according to which elites in America and Europe are intentionally encouraging immigration to replace indigenous whites).

Since cutting the overseas aid budget to fund higher defence spending losing the excellent Anneliese Dodds in the process Labour has had little to say on the subject, aside from the fact that 0.3% of national income is the new normal. But despite the cuts, Foreign Office sources insist that behind the scenes there is a renewed commitment to winning the argument for the impact and benefits of international development.

Hamilton, who also led a congressional probe of the Reagan administration's Iran-Contra affair while representing a rural southern Indiana district, died peacefully in his home in Bloomington, Indiana, said his son Doug Hamilton, who did not cite a specific cause. Hamilton was at the forefront of congressional opposition to the 1991 Persian Gulf War waged by President George H.W. Bush and advocated continued economic sanctions against Iraq before military action over its invasion of Kuwait.

This is the first article in a two-part Q&A series with San Francisco's major congressional candidates about foreign policy. Part one focuses on Congress and the military with questions about Israel and Gaza, Ukraine, Iran and Venezuela. Part two, which will be published Wednesday morning, focuses on trade, foreign aid and the relationship between the U.S, China, and Taiwan.

Nine young men who voted for President Donald Trump in 2024 said they do not support Vice President J.D. Vance as the Republican nominee in 2028, according to a Politico report published Friday, with one voter expressing that he thinks it's time for someone new. The 18- to 24-year-olds took part in a Monday focus group run by communications firm Longwell Partners and shared with Politico, with all but one saying they would rather see another nominee and the lone holdout remaining unconvinced.
