Whats going on in the World


"Last Friday, the president was at a coffee shop in Pennsylvania, and he seemed to be surprised that the smoothie was $6 and how expensive it was," FOX Business reporter Edward Lawrence told Jean-Pierre. "I’m curious. So is the president now realizing the costs that Americans are bearing?"

The typical U.S. household needed to pay $211 more a month in December to purchase the same goods and services it did one year ago because of still-high inflation, according to new calculations from Moody's Analytics. Americans are paying on average $1,020 more each month compared with the same time two years ago.

Putin is starting to talk tough about the Baltics, laying the groundwork for 'future escalations' with NATO: ISW​

  • Vladimir Putin is starting to express his anger toward NATO nations Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania.
  • His rhetoric sounds an awful lot like his statements before Russia attacked Ukraine.
  • Russia's emerging narrative toward the Baltics sets the stage for "future escalations," the ISW said.
Russian leader Vladimir Putin has been intensifying his rhetoric against the Baltic states, setting the stage for potential "future escalations" with the eastern NATO members, the Institute for Study of War said on Tuesday.

The Washington-based think tank reported that Putin on Tuesday claimed that Latvia and other Baltic nations were "simply throwing out" ethnic Russian people from their borders.

His complaint refers to changes in Latvia's immigration law that require Russians living as permanent residents in the country to pass a Latvian language test if they want to stay there. Around 1,200 Russians were identified for deportation in December because they didn't renew their residency permits under the new rules.


"You see, these are very serious things that directly affect our national security," Putin said, according to state news agency RIA Novosti.

The ISW said in a daily assessment that Putin's rhetoric "notably amplified a long-standing Kremlin effort to set information conditions for future escalations against the Baltic countries, likely as part of his wider effort to weaken NATO."

Three years of incompetence. He tested the waters with Ukraine, he is still standing. Nothing to stop him.
 

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., filed the brief on Thursday, arguing the court's decision "encroaches" on Congress' powers and that Congress must pass authorizing legislation to enforce the 14th Amendment, which the Colorado Supreme Court cited as the basis for removing Trump.

"The radical left consistently does what they claim their opponents are doing. While President Biden and his allies claim they are defending democracy, their supporters are working to undermine democracy by banning Biden’s likely general election opponent from appearing on the ballot," Cruz said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "The American people see through this, and I’m confident the Supreme Court will as well."
 
What's wrong with this, a reminder about good, civil behavior? They just insist that patients are civil and keep their vitriol to themselves while under their care. Besides patients being hassled by boors, healthcare professionals are also seeing an increase in "children behaving badly".

Did I say anything was wrong? I have been there when this stuff goes down. Tough enough being there, let alone security wrestling with someone or screaming etc.
