After driving for much of the day, I have arrived at an undisclosed location in east central Ohio. I regret not finding anything to take pictures of, but that will hopefully change very soon. On the other hand, I did find a hotel and a place to eat, so I'm posting much later than normal. Due to such time constraints, my news posts will be shorter. For the time being, here are a few things going on:
From Free West Media, the director of an art school in Dresden, Germany defends an employee who had stood for election for the AfD.
From Deutsche Welle, Germany pushes climate change as a security risk.

From RFI, a French imam has been sentenced to prison for helping illegal migrants try to cross the English Channel.
From the Express, President Trump hints that the U.S. is looking forward to a post-Brexit trade deal with the U.K.
From the Evening Standard, a Trump supporter in London gets milkshaked.
