Stop giving Gender minister appointments to women who cannot work! Reserve it for the ‘mad women’ who can raise hell. The so called ‘mother figures’ are failing us.

As a man of faith, I pray every day. Faith is a thing there’s just too little of in Washington.

This sociopath doesn’t even have the heart to take responsibility for imposing a militarized energy siege of Cuba, which is now subjecting millions of Cubans to blackouts for as long as 36 hours, blocking basic medicine and driving infant mortality rates up 150%
The Cuban regime tries to blame its failures on others, but the reality is clear: corruption, human rights abuses, and repression are the real roots of Cuba's problems.

3 days after Meta was ordered to stop manipulating algorithms to favor Flavio Bolsonaro in the presidential election, two orgs have submitted evidence to Brazil's Superior Electoral Court that the corporation is still violating national election laws. panamericandispatch.org/p/me…

It is the responsibility of a political party to earn the support of its coalition, not the responsibility of voters to endlessly court a party that increasingly treats them with contempt. That is one of the most elementary principles of representative democracy. I spent years involved in Republican politics. I stuck my neck out for this party, bent over backwards defending it, worked on campaigns, and stood by people even when doing so wasn’t particularly easy. I genuinely believed in what I was doing. I wasn’t pretending to be a conservative, and I certainly wasn’t involved in Republican politics because I had nothing better to do with my time. I gave that movement a great deal of my energy because I believed there was a place for me in it. And after all of that, I have to sit here and watch people like Bo French insinuate that I’m not an American because of where my family comes from? If voting according to my conscience makes me a “libtard,” then so be it
Why was a libtard working as an intern there

“He held my hand and used it to rub his manhood, took off my shorts and forced himself on me. After that, he gave me GH¢100 and warned me not to mention it to anyone.” This is the story of Victim A, who was r*ped by the headmaster of Obuasi SHTS but never got justice, even after reporting the incident to the appropriate authorities. #HotlineDocumentary

Fun fact: his woman mapped out the route, did her research on hotels and all. So he knew exactly where to stop each day.
Running from Accra to Kumasi is not a Joke … Big shoutouts to Nii 🔥🔥🔥🔥

A procurement economy 😂🤣. They bury the theft deep within projects. The next is the painting of houses in Accra in preparation for Independence Day Celebrations next year. I sometimes wonder how we're all sane with all the nonsense happening around us.
Yesterday, President Ruto opened affordable buildings And it shows how expensive and preposterous the Saglemi is by cost. Saglemi per house cost is roughly 10x that. Housing units 🇰🇪 2,148–2,157 🇬🇭 1,506 Total investment basis 🇰🇪 US$41m 🇬🇭 US$250-290m Cost per unit 🇰🇪 ≈ US$19,000 🇬🇭 ≈ US$196,500

Not enough people know this: in practice, the IMF is controlled by the US. The US is the only country that has de facto veto power at the IMF because the biggest decisions require an 85% supermajority of total voting power. The US' vote share is 16.5% This was by design, and the supermajority threshold was actually moved in 1978 so that the US vote share would continue to give the country veto power. We should not see the IMF as an organisation that serves global development. We should see is as an organisation that serves mainly Western interests — and, above all, US interests.

They practically saved her life
A Nigerian lady was just arrested by NDLEA officers at the airport after a keg of palm oil she was given to deliver to someone in Saudi Arabia was allegedly found to contain illicit drugs. The lady reportedly received the keg from someone who asked her to deliver it to another person in Saudi Arabia, unaware that it was allegedly being used to conceal drugs.

This is the problem with how we have carried out development. We have allowed significant encroachment and development all around roads that are supposed to be classic highways. So the Accra-Kumasi 'Highway' has now become just like any urban road. The Tema Motorway is suffering the same fate And without proper zoning, the under construction Accra-Kumasi expressway will suffer the same fate. How can we expect anyone to drive 50KM/Hr on the Accra-Kumasi highway? How?
The Accra-Kumasi Highway, too, is 50 km/h apparently.

Trump ran on cutting taxes. But once tariffs are counted, his policies are raising taxes and costs this year for every income group except the richest 1%, per a new report from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy. The reason: tariffs, which are largely passed on to consumers as higher prices, outweigh the tax cuts for most Americans. Even the right-leaning Tax Foundation calls the tariffs the largest U.S. tax increase as a share of GDP since 1993.

Francia es el caso perfecto del fracaso del "efecto derrame". Macron prometió que bajar impuestos a los ricos y a las empresas dispararía la inversión. Spoiler: no pasó. Vamos con las rebajas, una por una 👇

an independent audit is the best way to resolve this. record-keeping on this scale is always prone to human error, which is why a certain threshold of discrepancy is normally accepted. a thorough audit would provide clearer answers to the questions being raised.
