On the other hand, Trump..... 😅 "Within weeks, Trump praised Putin for how he handled the takeover of Crimea and predicted that “the rest of Ukraine will fall … fairly quickly.” Echoing Kremlin propaganda, Trump said in a TV interview that the Crimean people “would rather be with Russia,” a position he also pushed in private. One of his 2016 campaign aides falsely claimed that “Russia did not seize Crimea.” https://edition.cnn.com/2022/03/26/politics/trump-putin-ukraine/index.html

EC to clarify court ruling impact before Sunday Senate elections

What is at stake is the survival of the yellow-green network of people who used to control all agencies, as well as the judiciary, by appointing each other. All these positions are based on reciprocal appointments or approval by the judiciary, the agencies and the Senate. As this network has lost most of its electoral base, in particular in Bangkok which has largely switched to MFP, this is clearly a survival issue. Concerning the Senate: "4. Providing advice or approving an appointment of a person to hold a position The Constitution provides duties and powers of the Senate in giving approval to a person for holding positions in organs under the Constitution, namely Judge of the Constitutional Court, Election Commissioner, Ombudsman, Member of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, Member of the State Audit Commission, Auditor-General and Member of the National Human Rights Commission who are elected or selected by the Selection Committee." https://www.senate.go.th/assets/portals/1/fileups/419/files/senate Eng.pdf -
Far-Right Rhetoric Intensifies Following Trump's Guilty Verdict

To be honest, from the right-wing posts this forum, I did not find a significant intensification. It was witch hunt and weaponized Biden's DOJ before the trial, and it's still witch hunt and weaponized Biden's DOJ after the trial! 😀 Not much changed! -
I did not find the wfaa interview but I found this article about an interview he made. In this interview, Isaac claims that files, which were not among the ones he found, have been added to the laptop content. It's a copy of a wapo article. https://www.congress.gov/118/meeting/house/115286/documents/HHRG-118-GO00-20230208-SD012.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiw-qCX8MuGAxX_VqQEHfNDBvIQFnoECA4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw0pig0YA9J4wqDeO_nFHrE_ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/04/12/now-warning-about-hunter-biden-laptop-disinfo-guy-who-leaked-it/

Any Wikipedia article is not better nor worse than the sources it uses. That's why it's always necessary to look at the sources. There is no good or bad Wikipedia " in general" as authors are different. In this particular Wikipedia article, the sources are legit and seem to confirm what is written in the WP article ( well, for the parts I checked)

Navigating the Chaos: Trump, Covid, and the Climate Crisis in America
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
No conjecture. Republicans died more than Democrats from Covid after the vaccine was available, because a lower percentage of them got vaccinated. To be honest, Trump did not directly tell them they should not get vaccinated. He told them to do what they want, while MAGA outlets were diffusing anti-vaccine propaganda. Republicans' excess death rate spiked after COVID-19 vaccines arrived, a study says https://www.npr.org/2023/07/25/1189939229/covid-deaths-democrats-republicans-gap-study https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/people-in-republican-counties-have-higher-death-rates-than-those-in-democratic-counties/ -
