As U.S. Dismantles Voice of America, Rival Powers Hope to Fill the Void

As U.S. Dismantles Voice of America, Rival Powers Hope to Fill the Void

“When you declare ‘America First’ and you start berating your allies and friendly countries, you lose trust and you lose attraction,” Joseph S. Nye Jr.

Donald Trump via Twitter: https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/255784560904773633 Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate. October 9, 2012

There is always a tweet.

Seeing the big crowds definitely gave me hope.

Political violence must always be condemned.

Hi Bob, hope you had a great No Kings Day!

Troops deployed to LA will cost $134M, Pentagon predicts The estimate came during a budget hearing with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who said the president is enforcing “law and order.”

The same president who wants to cut $800B from Medicaid and strip health care from 16 million Americans to fund tax cuts for billionaires...is spending $134M to send troops to CA and $45M on his birthday parade in DC.

Burning taxpayer dollars to play king. Un-American.

California is home to the most immigrants out of any state in the nation.

We also have the strongest economy out of any state in the nation.

Not despite our immigrant population –– but because of it.

Trump says L.A. is “burning”? Tell that to the families displaced by the January fires families he’s done NOTHING to help. Instead of going after violent criminals, he deported a 4-year-old cancer patient, detained a U.S. Marshal, and spent $134M on a political stunt. Californians aren’t buying it.

Sen. Alex Padilla forcibly removed from Secretary Kristi Noem’s Los Angeles press conference Noem said the federal government is staying in Southern California to “liberate” Los Angeles.

“I am Sen. Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary,” the Democratic senator said as he was being pushed out of the room by multiple people.

Senators are ELECTED to be a VOICE for their constituents. What happens when that voice is stifled, thrown to the ground, and handcuffed like Senator Padilla was?

We have a democracy, but we can lose that democracy.

I took to the Senate floor to speak out—I hope you'll join me.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: “Republican senators should be very careful on this right now. If they do not come out and defend Senator Padilla’s right to ask questions of this administration of his colleagues, they are setting an extraordinarily dangerous precedent"

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Hey corporate media, do your damn jobs.

I love this so much!

Chicago set to celebrate election of Pope Leo XIV - Vatican News The Archdiocese of Chicago, hometown of Pope Leo XIV, is hosting an event in the city's Rate Field, residence of its beloved White Sox baseball team, ...

This seems like a great and friendly event to attend on Saturday (and I'm not even Catholic) unless of course there's a No Kings Day event nearby. www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news...

Yasssssss!

LAPD showing support for the peaceful protesters in LA.

LA: Your voice matters.

Trump is trying to provoke chaos by sending 4,000 soldiers onto American soil.

Foolish agitators who take advantage of Trump’s chaos will be held accountable.

Stay safe. Stay calm. Look out for one another.

$134 million that should be going to LA’s fire recovery.

Shameful.
