The media in the United States bear enormous responsibility for the slide into fascism.
Today, they failed epically to report the truth.

Bernárd Lynch is a true hero for what he did to help AIDS victims and their families in the 80’s and 90’s. He was vilified by families and the Church for doing so.
As a proud Clareman, he also surely deserves the freedom of Ennis? @ClareCoCo

The EU could involve Belgian king to extend sanctions against Russia if Hungary vetoes, says FT
The EU may turn to King Philippe of Belgium to prevent €190 billion in Russian assets held in the Belgian depository Euroclear from being returned to Russia if Hungary vetoes the sanctions renewal, the Financial Times reports.
Without the sanctions, these funds could "return to Russia the very next day."
One proposed measure is invoking a 1944 military decree, granting the Belgian king the authority to block the transfer of assets from the country.
