Incredible (but predictable) : #Microsoft has blocked the International Criminal Court's access (#ICC) to its services on the orders of the #Trump mafia.Read that carefully : an international organisation that has no presence in the United States and no US legal rights has had its work tools blocked simply because it disagrees with the Trump administration. 🚩
Get the hell out of it right now.

The image depicts a blurred scene of a person riding a horse in a park-like setting. The horse is brown, and the rider is dressed in dark clothing, including a jacket and pants. The background features trees with green foliage, and the ground appears to be a paved path. The image is out of focus, making it difficult to discern specific details. The overall impression is of a leisurely scene, possibly in a public park, with the horse and rider as the main subjects.

"Democrats" don't say that. The Constitution says that, and for 150 years, everyone agreed the Constitution says that.
The tools we use have a profound (and devious) influence on our thinking habits, and, therefore, on our thinking abilities.
