Facebook Tweet Email Link An Italian Facebook page where thousands of men posted intimate images of their female partners, sisters and unknown women – many of them without their consent, has been closed down following public outrage and multiple complaints to police. Since it was launched in 2019, hundreds of thousands of photos of women were posted on the Facebook group “Mia Moglie” (My Wife) for the purpose of eliciting comments and propositions by the nearly 32,000 mostly male group members. The posts ranged from swinger couples to photos women shared with their partners who then posted them on the…
Facebook Tweet Email Link President Donald Trump said Friday he will give Russian President Vladimir Putin “a couple of weeks,” further extending his deadline for potential consequences against Moscow after urging the Russian leader to meet with his Ukrainian counterpart in hopes of ending the war. Asked by CNN’s Alayna Treene if there’s a possibility he does nothing if Putin doesn’t come to the table, Trump said, “We’ll see. I’ll see whose fault it is.” “If there are reasons why, I will understand that; I know exactly what I’m doing. We’re going to see whether or not they have a…
Facebook Tweet Email Link New Delhi — One by one, they emerge from their slumber: Dholu, an energetic young male with a noticeable limp; Oldie, the greying elder who loves a belly rub; and Snoopy, a golden-eyed boy who patiently waits his turn. They’re not summoned by a whistle but the familiar smell of khichdi, a traditional dish of rice and lentils. Himanshi Varma carries two large bags through this New Delhi neighborhood, where in the chaos of the Indian capital, her evening ritual begins. For seven years, Varma has fed the city’s roaming strays – a silent pact she’s…
Facebook Tweet Email Link New York AP — Federal investigators no longer consider NBA free agent Malik Beasley a target in their gambling probe, Beasley’s attorneys told ESPN. Attorneys Steve Haney and Mike Schachter said they’ve had what the report called “extensive” conversations and meetings with Eastern District of New York authorities. “Months after this investigation commenced, Malik remains uncharged and is not the target of this investigation,” Haney told ESPN. “An allegation with no charge, indictment or conviction should never have the catastrophic consequence this has caused Malik. This has literally been the opposite of the presumption of innocence.”…
Facebook Tweet Email Link Atlantic City, NJ — Almost every passenger carries lithium-ion batteries onto airplanes – in their phones, laptops, rechargeable powerpacks and even vapes. And when something goes wrong with one of them, Federal Aviation Administration tests show the results can be catastrophic. Delta Air Lines Flight 1334 was flying from Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale last month when smoke and flames started pouring out of a backpack. The pilots declared an emergency and diverted to Fort Meyers where the 191 people onboard safely evacuated. The culprit was a passenger’s personal lithium-ion battery pack, which had been tucked away…
Facebook Tweet Email Link Robert Hill called in sick to work when he heard about what was happening in his Bethesda, Maryland. Every major cable news network was broadcasting from a house just a few streets away, but Hill had to see it for himself. When he got to the street where President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton lives, Hill pulled out his phone to record video of the scene along with other neighborhood gawkers. Cars parked in the grass lined the narrow two-lane road. Directly across from Bolton’s home, there was a wall of TV news…
Facebook Tweet Email Link Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine — Three meters underground, a network of tunnels and trenches fortified with timber provides a safer spot for frontline fighters to rest and recuperate – and a deeper position to defend against a potential Russian advance into Zaporizhzhia in southeastern Ukraine. Down here in the dirt, it feels far from the capital Kyiv, and light years away from the United States – where a dramatic flurry of diplomatic activity in the past week means little to those on the battlefield. “We want to believe the war will end, but it doesn’t feel likely anytime…

Facebook Tweet Email Link For Ukraine, history is a battlefield. Months before Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale invasion, he published a brooding, 5,000-word article that made the case for dismantling the country; in his speech to mark the start of Russia’s offensive he reeled off a litany of historical grievances against the West; and months into the war, he cast himself as the successor to Russia’s modernizing tsar Peter the Great. History lessons are now haunting Ukraine again. As US President Donald Trump pushes for a negotiated end to the war there, politicians and pundits are searching for…
Facebook Tweet Email Link Reuters — The British government on Friday extended the deadline until October to decide on whether to approve China’s plans to build the largest embassy in Europe in London after Beijing refused to fully explain why the plans contained blacked out areas. China’s plans to build a new embassy on the site of a two-century-old building near the Tower of London have stalled for the past three years because of opposition from local residents, lawmakers, and Hong Kong pro-democracy campaigners in Britain. Politicians in Britain and the U.S. have warned the government against allowing China to…
