Taylor & Trump: global warnings...Elon loosed...bombs over deserts...Ukraine brings home the bacon...knives over Paris...then there's the farmers...Messi in Hong Kong...cartoonist Paresh's desert fire
Thanks for this entertaining/depressing round-up, David, as always, different from the feeds.
I had to laugh at the photo/coverage of Taylor Swift. Le Monde was notorious until, I believe well into the 80s, for never publishing a single picture, colored or b/w. Pictures were considered lowbrow. My friends used to say, Ah le Monde, des protestants de chapelle... Cheers.
Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo have evolved from Sandinista revolutionaries to ruling as more typical caudillos, but they have remained reliable adversaries of the U.S. government.
You are SO kind, Walter … yes I do remember those days in Le Monde … but then The Times of London once ran only classified ads on its front page !!
As for entertaining/depressing …. I do try to amuse and inform (not mutually exclusive!)
;-))
Totally !
Reliably and determinedly anti-American !!
