JD Vance got a kiss and a hug from vile, supine Meloni but then got brutally booed by the crowd. As was the Israeli team. The Italian people have spoken.

A thing can be horrific and we can acknowledge the truth of it without losing a part of ourselves in the process. Just as I did not want to watch endless video footage of dead Gaza children, I do not need to watch that video or others like it. You, an Average Joe, are cooking your brain on violence.

This ferocious, all-out assault on women's rights has been years in the making. They mapped out every sphere where women gained autonomy - education, healthcare, careers, social freedoms - and are systematically targeting each one for destruction.
