Le Monde reported during Elon Musk’s last day on the stand, he complained “Your questions are ‘leading’ “ The judge asked him “are you a lawyer?” “No, I am not a lawyer.” He added “Well, technically I took Law101 in college.” The courtroom erupted in laughter.

The $2bn (£1.5bn) a week that Donald Trump was spending on his reckless war in Iran could have funded saving more than 87 million lives, the head of the UN’s humanitarian agency, Tom Fletcher, said on April 20,2026.

one maddening thing about all of this is the conservative idea that "election day" has always meant a single day until recently, which is nonsense. 19th century elections often took place over the course of an entire month, with results trickling out over time.

1989 Nancy Pelosi was on the front page of International Herald while my ship was docked in Hong Kong. I had been following the Tiananmen Square protest in Beijing carefully. The protest was squashed violently. She was there holding a pro democracy banner. With privilege comes courage.
