"The Vietnam War ended on April 30, 1975, when the South Vietnamese capital of Saigon fell to Communist forces. But millions of people still face daily battles with its chemical legacy.
Nguyen Thanh Hai, 34, is one of millions with disabilities linked to Agent Orange. Born with severe developmental challenges, it’s a struggle for him to complete tasks others take for granted..."

>> The #VietnamWar ended 50 years ago, but the battle with #AgentOrange continues
Clever headline!
"Across #Vietnam, #US forces sprayed 72 million liters of defoliants to strip the enemy’s cover. More than half was Agent Orange, a blend of herbicides.
It was laced with dioxin, a chemical linked to cancer, birth defects and environmental damage."
Today, 330 million Americans suffer because of a different Agent Orange.
Morning, all,
as Crimea was 'originally' Russian, the Trump administration is going to recognise Putin's illegal 2014 annexation of the peninsula?
And Donald Trump will be returning Alaska to Russia, which originally owned that too?
Imagine if Don The Con not Roosevelt had been POTUS in January 1942...
Trump would've ended World War Two on Day One by allowing Adolf ("a good friend of mine") to keep Poland and France.

Ein Kumpel eines ehemaligen Kollegen arbeitete in #Deutschland für ein US-amerikanisches Unternehmen. Für Zusammentreffen mit der Geschäftsleitung haben sie sich in #Kanada getroffen, da es bei der Einreise in die #USA immer wieder zu unangenehmen Verhören und anderen Komplikationen gekommen ist! Das wollte das Unternehmen seinen europäischen Mitarbeitern nicht länger abverlangen!
Und das war sogar noch vor der ersten Amtszeit von #AgentOrange!!!
The U.S. Constitution is not fit for purpose.
On the one occasion when America is demonstrably under threat from a tyrant, the "well-regulated militia" mandated to bear arms in defence of the Republic is absent without leave...

The Marmalade Mussolini has just had his annual check-up and is in peak physical and mental condition (tho the bone spurs weren't mentioned).
Fear not, were the 78-year-old #POTUS45 to die in office, the #VPOTUS will succeed him, and J.D.Vance is a veritable "safe pair of hands..."

Morning, all
Q: What do you call 100 lawyers chained together on the ocean-floor?
A: A good start.
Yeah, we all luv lawyer jokes but sans lawyers judges don't get to judge.
Who'd have thunk Martin Niemöller's updated catechism would start with:
"First they came for the lawyers, but as I wasn't a blood-sucking bottom-feeding leech I didn't speak out..."

Turns out reports of RFK Junior's Damascene conversion to the #MMR Vaccine were mistaken.
#RFK was in Texas - the nearest Damascus is across the state line in Arkansas...
