Tuesday Tidbits

Now that I've made a few posts showing some things that I've seen southeastern Virginia, I return you to my regular blogging.  On a warm sunny Tuesday, here are some things going on:

From National Review, former President Trump surrenders to authorities pleads not guilty to 34 felony counts.

From FrontpageMag, the Department of Homeland Security still won't come clean about its proposed Ministry of Truth.

From Townhall, the full indictment of Trump is released.

From The Washington Free Beacon, the media again debase themselves with their coverage of Trump's journey from Mar-a-Lago to Manhattan.

From the Washington Examiner, according to former Trump lawyer Joe Tacopina, the Trump indictment will not see a jury trial.

From The Federalist, seven serious stories that the media missed while being buzzed over the Trump indictment.

From American Thinker, remittances to Mexico and Central America from illegal aliens in the U.S. are soaring.  (For all you out there who like to point out that "no one is above the law" when it comes to Trump's indictment, would I be correct in assuming that you also believe that the admonition "no one is above the law" also applies to all these people in the U.S. illegally?)

From CNS News, the Philippines approves four more of its military bases for U.S. use.

From Fox News, a man from Washington state pleads guilty for his role in the Capitol riot.  (via LifeZette)

From NewsBusters, according to Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, Americans are being "de-platformed" for raising "valid concerns".

From Canada Free Press, Fox News gives Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg an "11th-hour nudge" before the Trump arraignment.

From TCW Defending Freedom, beware the U.K. government's emergency alerts on your smartphone.

From EuroNews, Finland becomes the newest member of NATO.

From Euractiv, France reduced its carbon dioxide emissions by 8.5 percent in 2022 from 2021, but it was not enough to meet E.U. goals.  (If you read French, read the story at the French version of Euractiv.  To its credit, the article uses the formula "CO2" in its title.  But I still must ask, how much does French carbon dioxide affect the climate?)

From ReMix, the Polish government plans to invest the equivalent of €2.14 billion in the port of Świnoujście to enable it to compete with the German port of Hamburg.

From Balkan Insight, polls in Bulgaria indicate that the country will continue to have political stalemate.

From The North Africa Post, the U.N. calls on Tunisian President Kais Saied to end its "hate speech" against sub-Saharan migrants and to stop detaining them.

From RepublicWorld, a man who allegedly tried to set a fellow passenger on fire on a train the Indian state of Kerala is arrested in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

From BBC News, Egypt opens a lavish new mosque in its new capital city, which draws anger from poor Egyptians.

From Gatestone Institute, President Biden's coup in Israel.

From The Stream, is it a sin for Christians to use transgender preferred pronouns?

From the Daily Caller, former congresscritter and gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin (R-NY) sees a "silver lining" if congresscritter AOC (D-NY) runs against Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY).  (AOC won her first House race by primarying a fellow Democrat, Joe Crowley.)

From the New York Post, former Speaker Pelosi (D-Cal) gives former First Lady/Senator (D-NY)/Secretary of State Hillary Clinton one more but incorrect item on her resume.
