And notably absent is former First Lady Obama who is vacationing in Hawaii.

For those nitpicking about the precise location of Trump's hand, note the similar locations of several others' hands including Bill Clinton.

I honestly wonder how many EVs contributed to the intensity of fires and the resulting spread.

Yes, many celebs as well as ordinary people lost homes, and as the fires continue to spread, more and more homes will be lost.

Very tragic in many ways.

All porn is a toxic poison.

DEI has been destroying businesses. Thankfully, it's going the way of the dodo!

For those who may have forgotten about the record-setting undersea volcanic eruption two years ago (Hunga Tunga), it injected a record-setting volume of water vapor into the stratosphere. That water vapor will linger for several years, causing a warming effect.

That's far more influential than bovine flatulence or fossil fuel combustion. It's just not taxable.

And it's not narrative-conforming to mention that the Sun is in the peak of its activity in the ~11-year cycle.

Yes, that bright ball in the sky and its irradiance has a warming effect. For those who may

Good little commies that they are...

Is there an alternative bulb available?

Yet another infidel attacks innocent people in their own country. Disgusting.

Oh, he was just transporting the goods, you know, giving them a lift....

Haters gonna hate. President TRUMP makes his own decisions and that unsettles the left.

The President-elect cannot have official meetings with national leaders, but that does not preclude unofficial conversations such as dinners. It's not a difficult concept.

I'm glad that Ms Koike is going to personally pay for all this daycare from her vast wealth. Very generous!

Most of Star*ucks offerings are junk. Real coffee isn't drunk with a straw of any kind.

Does Japan not have a Dept or Fish & Wildlife? These officers could be properly trained and tasked with dealing with this and other wildlife-related over-population /nuisance issues. It makes no sense to place the burden on the now rapidly aging & declining numbers of licensed hunters to do the work of the poorly managed government.

An EV is okay as a SECONDARY vehicle or as an in-town grocery getter. That's fine for more affluent people or folks who rarely drive. A niche market vehicle.

The governmental "one-size-fits-all" top-down mentality (communistic) doesn't jive with a large segment of societies.

And the fallacy that EVs are less damaging to the environment is ludicrous.

The winter snowfall was the third-heaviest in Seoul, the capital, since records began in 1907

Which means it's not unprecedented. Yes, the climate is changing. It's ALWAYS changing. In fact, the actual "deniers" are those who deny the fact that Earth's climate has always been in a state of flux, and that's long before any industrial revolution. In the 70's, the "experts" were clamoring about doom from the impending Ice Age.

No mention of their residence status.

Always check the actual seller. For some items, a Chinese seller may be acceptable, but choose carefully. Online retailing is "Buyer Beware", and I've used Amazon for a very long time.

Typical Keynesian economic nonsense. If the politicians actually want to help people (they don't), especially the low to middle income folk, the best solution would be to abolish both sales tax and income tax.

It's offensive to intentionally not capitalize a person's name regardless of who that person is.

Give PM Ishiba a break.

The storage capacity may be a maximum volume of 20L, but don't think for a minute that anyone could "carry enough water for a few days" in this or any backpack. One liter of water weighs one kilogram. You need at least 4L per day.

Get yourself a 20L jug and mount it to a cargo dolly instead.

AP may have been less biased way back in the 70s, but today (especially since ~2000) they have been heavily left biased. It's no wonder they're losing audience.

Aren't some of them moving out of the USA very soon?

That pose in the image....

They need to be forced.

Oh, that's doesn't sound totalitarian at all...

Sounds more like a suicide.

Lots of people whine about non-citizens not having the right to vote. THEY SHOULD NOT!

The right to vote is reserved for CITIZENS, and that must be guarded & protected 100%. That's true for EVERY country.

I'm a dual citizen but can only vote in ONE of the two because the second only allows resident citizens to vote.

I would gladly become a naturalized citizen of Japan, but only IF allowed to retain my birthright citizenships. I would never forfeit either birthright.

That’s the way it is at this time. Maybe in the future Japan will recognize multiple citizenships.

As someone who has lived here many years this remains a sore spot for me.

Then, become a naturalized citizen!

Do something about your status and stop whining.

The tariffs on Chinese made goods should be much higher.
