President Attacks Rather than Addresses Congress in First State of the Union
February 26th (Washington, D.C.) – A few short weeks after making a request to do so, the President was able to appear before a joint-session of Congress to give a State of the Union address. However, this was a speech unlike any given since becoming formally known by that name in 1947—which coincidently was the first time the speech was broadcast on television. The last President to have a State of the Union during their first year in office was John F. Kennedy—although his successor Lyndon B. Johnson had one after Kennedy was assassinated and Gerald Ford also had one when Richard Nixon resigned. However, according to a Congressional Research Service report (https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44770.pdf) on the history of the State of the Union:

Disney is Digging It’s Own Grave at This Point: A Recently Announced Cartoon is Their Latest Flop…
Hello world! You’d think that Disney’s box-office bombs and several cries to stop would keep them from making absolute malarkey in the future, right? Well apparently, these rat worshippers show no sign of stopping their terrible remakes, indoctrination and other failures. And on top of all their ‘representation’ rubbish, they still manage to be complete and total hypocrites by using several stereotypes and a lack of research to represent the Hispanic/Latino community. Friends and enemies, I give you Disney’s latest abomination: ‘Primos.’

Tuesday, 20 June 2023 By: TB Obwoge Anyone watching or hearing the news of Uganda's disgusting anti-LGTBQ bill would think that homosexuality in Uganda was causing major issues. They'd think that Gay Ugandans were the biggest issue facing the East African nation.

Should Schools Be Teaching Children About Sexuality? (My opinion)
Greetings to my fellow human beings, today we shall discuss a topic that has been a raging debate these last couple of weeks: 'Should sexuality be taught in schools?' Now, before I start, I would like to say that by 'schools' I mean elementary/junior high schools. In the U.S., there has been a couple of protests, mainly in California, about this topic. An example would be the protests being held by both parents, and the LGBTQ community in Glendale, California. To sum it up, an elementary school was going to hold a pride parade, and the parents of these children weren't happy with it. It started as a peaceful protest, the parents were protesting against the topic being forced upon their children, and then it grew violent. Arrests were made and the pride event still happened.
BRICS BANK (NEW DEVELOPMENT BANK)
The eighth annual meeting of the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) commenced in Shanghai on Tuesday, with Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov presenting its development plans. Established in 2014 by Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, the NDB started its operations a year later. Subsequently, Bangladesh, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt joined the bank, and Uruguay is in the process of becoming a member. Saudi Arabia is also engaged in discussions to join the NDB, which would strengthen ties between the BRICS countries and the world's second-largest oil producer.
