- Wow. He pauses too, because he expects them to laugh (because it is a great line), but it seems that they didn't - European elite probably too stunned at so much truth in one sitting.OMG. VP JD VANCE: If American democracy can survive 10 years of Greta Thunberg's scolding, you guys can survive a few months of Elon Musk.
00:00 - ضد العقوبات على #العراق التي تؤذي الأبرياء. خاصة عندما نتذكر هذا التاريخ المظلم. نحتاج أن نساعد الشعب العراقي النبيل الذي يدافع عن حريته وحقوقه.
- لقد كنت متحدثا رسميا ومسؤولا إعلاميا ودبلوماسيا في العديد من الظروف الصعبة. وعلينا أن أقول كيف أحترم إجابات هذا الوزير السعودي على الأسئلة العدوانية. إنها مهارة مهمة (سواء كنت تتفق معه أم لا).سلمولي على "عادل الجبير" 👏🏼👏🏼 ظهور متألق كعادته مع قناة دنماركية أمس خصوصًا بعد قول المذيع أن "السعودية تتوسل لجذب الاستثمارات الخارجية" فأوقفه الوزير فوراً وأعتذر المذيع مباشرةً #ترجمات_عبدالله_الخريّف

"Learn to code," they said. @60Minutes here is all about class, as in a type that considered themselves permanently entitled, an elite, a bureaucratic ruling class.“Twelve days ago, people knew where their next paycheck was coming from. They knew how they were going to pay for their kids' daycare, their medical bills. And then, all gone overnight,” says Kristina Drye, who was fired in the USAID shutdown. cbsn.ws/3CU2X1y
00:00 - So #HunterBiden was in business with a now disappeared Chinese tycoon accused of bribing the President of Chad and the Foreign Minister of Uganda? Seems rather significant even though #TwitterCensorship won't let you RT today's article in the @nypost.
