The failed strategy has left the House in legislative limbo and raised fresh questions over Republican unity on one of Trump's top political priorities. Republican Revolt Sinks Strategy The dispute centred on the SAVE America Act, which would introduce stricter proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration. Supporters argued the measure was needed to strengthen election integrity, while critics warned it would make voting more difficult for millions of eligible Americans. Conservative lawmakers led by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna sought to attach the legislation to a must-pass defence spending bill, hoping the Senate would face pressure to accept both measures rather than risk disruption to Pentagon funding. Johnson's Warning Falls Flat The plan unravelled when 14 House Republicans joined Democrats in opposing the procedural rule needed to advance the package. According to CNN, Johnson confronted Luna and Rep. Tim Burchett on the House floor, warning they were making a mistake and risking political embarrassment. Neither lawmaker changed position, with Luna later insisting she would continue fighting for what she described as the interests of the American people. Trump's Agenda Hits Another Obstacle Even if the measure had cleared the House, it faced uncertain prospects in the Senate, where it lacked sufficient support. The setback also coincided with reports that the Trump administration is abandoning a Department of Homeland Security proof-of-citizenship database following a court order. The database had been expected to play a central role in implementing key provisions of the legislation, adding further uncertainty to its future. Pressure Mounts on GOP Leadership The defeat marks another difficult moment for Johnson as he attempts to hold together a narrow and often fractious Republican majority. With internal divisions increasingly spilling into public view, Republican leaders now face the challenge of advancing Trump's legislative priorities while managing a conference that has shown a growing willingness to defy its own leadership.

Walked alone to the Kindergarden as a 6 year old. Playing outside without any supervision. It was just the way it was back then. We did't need any "slippery when wet" signs.

These include Russian offensives launched from Belarusian territory to capture the Ukrainian capital and its surrounding areas, Syrskyi said. Another scenario includes a strike from Russia's bordering Bryansk region towards Ukraine’s Chernihiv region, which is the most probable scenario, he said.

The photo you posted is from 2007, and Poland. The flag in the background is that of a Polish fascist party. The man in the centre of the photograph is Tomasz Greniuch, who in 2019 was appointed head of the local branch of the Institute of National Remembrance in Opole, in southwestern Poland. At the time of the photograph, he was a member of the ONR "Obóz Narodowo-Radykalny", a revival of a pre-second world war fascist organisation. The revived organisation is profoundly anti-Ukrainian. https://www.timesofisrael.com/state-historian-in-poland-seen-in-pictures-from-2007-giving-nazi-salute/ https://www.jta.org/quick-reads/polish-historian-resigns-state-position-over-2007-photos-of-him-performing-nazi-salute https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/02/22/polish-ww2-war-crimes-historian-quits-outcry-nazi-salute-pictures/ https://wroclaw.tvp.pl/52479330/tomasz-greniuch-controversial-candidate-replacedWed, 01 Jul 2026 07:24:06 +0000MariniereWed, 01 Jul 2026 07:23:35 +0000To be fair the clash were a **** boy band put together by a jew - preaching anti-racism etc.and look where that's gotten the western world.

Hitler would have likely killed boh of thiose 2 - would he have been wrong to though (for society's sake) ?Wed, 01 Jul 2026 07:22:38 +0000I first visited Thailand in 1985 when I was 20 (it was a week after Live Aid). As far as bar girls went, I heard it said a few times "If she's no good don't pay her." And that was some bar owners. I thought that was way-open to abuse, especially knowing how many cheap-Charlies there are there. (Happy hour in Soi Cowboy was 25 Baht/drink. There was still the 'wow-factor' in Thailand. As in, "Wow, it's so cheap here!")😊Wed, 01 Jul 2026 07:22:27 +0000"I noticed that in school there is no awareness of what a swastika stands for..."
