- The images of the meeting between the Turkish President and the Hamas leader in Istanbul are causing unease. Supporting the terrorist organization is problematic. The Islamists are no longer suitable as negotiating partners for resolving the Middle East conflict.

- Moving the Hamas headquarters to Turkey would be a provocation towards Israel and its allies. Hamas has discredited itself as a reliable negotiating partner. A political resolution of the Middle East conflict should exclude the involvement of Hamas.

- Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

tagesschau.de/ausland/amerika/supreme-court-immunitaet-trump-100.html
Quick Glance: Trump's Disregard for Democratic Principles
- Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity for criminal acts as president is an assault on common sense and a perversion of the fundamental principle of American democracy.
- The Supreme Court's decision to take the case may delay the former president's trial and deprive the public of the right to know if he attempted to undermine the sacred process of presidential succession.
- The Supreme Court's direct intervention in the 2024 presidential election deprives voters of critical information and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump is re-elected and convicted.
- The notion that the president is above the law and can pardon himself is a radical contempt for republican government, revealing Trump's vision of unchecked royal power.
