Politics

Áras an UachtaráinDublin, Republic of Ireland 1:15 P.M. IST Q    Mr. President, how are you feeling? PRESIDENT BIDEN:  I’m feeling great, and I learned a lot hanging out with the President.  (Laughter.)   Q    Mr. President, what’s it like to be home? PRESIDENT BIDEN:  It feels great.  You know, I know it sounds silly, but there’s so many Irish Americans, like my relatives, who got here and got to America in 1844, ’45, and ’46 who’ve never been back here.  And they talk about it. The interesting thing — and I know many of you have the same experience with your ancestry wherever the country of…

Popular Politics – Wartime Censorship in Russia (with English subtitles)

Politics

There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines. We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates and beats down the rest. We also know where his weak spots are and what atrocities his regime is committing on a daily basis. Message from the source channel owner. One more new translation from “N”. No voice over in this, but leave your comments…

Statement from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on the March Producer Price Index

Politics

Today’s report is further evidence that we are making progress bringing inflation down. The annual inflation rate for producers is 2.7 percent — the lowest rate in more than two years. On average, prices set by businesses actually fell last month. This follows yesterday’s news that inflation for consumers is down substantially from its peak last summer. There is more work to do, but this is important progress for our economy and for American families. ### Official news published at https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/04/13/statement-from-press-secretary-karine-jean-pierre-on-the-march-producer-price-index/

Statement from Vice President Harris on Fifth Circuit’s Decision in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA

Politics

Last night, the Fifth Circuit issued a decision which invalidates the scientific, independent judgment of the FDA about when and how a medicine is available to Americans. The Justice Department has already announced that they are seeking emergency relief from the Supreme Court. More than 20 years ago, the FDA approved medication abortion as safe and effective for the American people. Last week, a Texas district court ruled to block access to this medication in every state in the country. The Fifth Circuit’s decision—just like the district court’s—second-guesses the agency’s medical experts. If this decision stands, no medication—from chemotherapy drugs, to asthma…
