Claiming that a fence would bring “order at the border,” Klobuchar appeared to make the comments during an election debate in October 2006, as part of her bid to join the Senate. The next month, she would become the first woman to be elected U.S. Senator from Minnesota. In video of the debate, Klobuchar says: “I do believe that we need more resources at the border and that that includes a fence....
The comedian said the move is in support of Colin Kaepernick and his protest against social injustice and police brutality. “I personally told my reps I wouldn’t do a Super Bowl commercial this year,” said Schumer in an Instagram post. “I know it must sound like a privilege ass sacrifice but it’s all I got. … Hitting the NFL with the advertisers is the only way to hurt them.”...
Back in Tirana, the government dismissed the refugees as social outcasts and claimed that 100,000 Albanians rallied in support of the government. But 24-year-old Enkeo Halili, a mechanic, had time only to look ahead. After disembarking, he told a reporter, “We don’t want these communists. We are young, we are poor. We’ve never even seen a discotheque.” In Brindisi, the weary travelers were met by teams of relief workers and the promise of new lives in Europe or the United States....
At stake, says the couturier, is a continent’s self-image. African casual has not been an easy look to sell to Africans, but after more than three decades of hard work, its champion is on a roll. Ouedraogo became a favorite of Nelson Mandela, who adopted the Pathe O look as his own, in 1994. Other trendsetters took a cue from Africa’s most revered politician, and ditched their suits. Since then, Pathe O has taken off (though the owner won’t detail sales, saying only, “Thank you, God”)....
RELATED: Silent Hill PS5 Reveal Expected This Week Even then, speculation regarding what Konami’s two games could be does seems a stretch given the lack of official information. Konami could feasibly reveal any two games. However, one of the most prominent leakers for the rumored Silent Hill game, as well as previously confirmed leaks regarding the Resident Evil franchise, thinks otherwise. The new Silent Hill game, according to Dusk Golem’s leaks, is being developed by Sony’s Gravity Rush team....

Offline viewing AirPlay support Picture-in-picture viewing At this stage, however, specific features aren’t the most significant aspect of the announcement. The exciting news is that a major content provider is finally giving us what we need: a dedicated streaming app for macOS. Offline viewing is the main reason such apps are useful. Mac laptops are, for the most part, slim and lightweight, which makes them excellent traveling companions. But accessing cheap and reliable Wi-Fi can be difficult when you’re on the road—or in the sky....
There wouldn’t have been any shortage of material for the show between the all of the books, including The Girl Who Played with Fire, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest, The Girl in the Spider’s Web, The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye, and The Girl Who Lived Twice. Still, it’s just as well that the new The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo show is going off on its own track; Lisbeth Salander is the protagonist of one book, but not of its sequels, though she does appear in all of them....
Intel’s upcoming Arc Alchemist graphics card aside, choosing between the two is difficult. If you buy a new GPU, you’re either buying from Team Red or Team Green. So, does it really make a difference who you buy from? Isn’t all GPU performance roughly similar? Can’t you expect a similar level of gaming performance, no matter if you buy an Nvidia or an AMD GPU? AMD vs. Nvidia: Does It Really Matter?...
We now know the dire consequences for those who were unable to leave Vietnam before the fall of Saigon. Many Vietnamese who remained were marked as collaborators with the U.S. and were sent to “reeducation camps,” which included brutal forced prison labor and ideology training. Forty-six years later, in the wake of another misguided war, President Biden now faces the same questions with regards to Afghanistan. For thousands of Afghans today, prison labor may seem like an attractive option—as opposed to the summary executions that the Taliban carried out on those supporting coalition forces....

Now, in “Americans in Kodachrome,” it looks even better. Using dye-transfer printing, a process that is usually reserved for fashion photography and art photographs, Guy Stricherz has selected 92 family photos, all of them made by amateurs, and turned them into a glistening portfolio of midcentury American life. Picnics, Christmas, birthdays, vacations, prom night and the big fish that didn’t get away–if you spend just a little time with this book, you will start wondering if you’re not related to almost everyone else in the country (“My aunt used to have a tablecloth that’s just like that one”)....
Still reeling from that event last week for which there are not even sufficient words of horror, I accepted an invitation from the British Broadcasting Corp. (BBC) to take part in a recent roundtable discussion featuring reporters and columnists from all over the world. I guess I thought it would ease some pain to chat on the phone with my international colleagues, giving them a first-hand look at the awful emptiness that New Yorkers are still feeling and the smoking pile of debris visible from my living room window....
Ortiz (D-Sacramento) introduced a bill last month that would create a two-cent-per-can tax on soda pop and other sweetened drinks. The goal is to do more than close California’s yawning budget deficit, but, Ortiz says, change the “Big Gulp” culture that has led to our nation’s staggering rates of childhood obesity. “I don’t think there’s any one staple of a child or teenager’s diet that is so utterly devoid of any nutritional value as soda,” Ortiz, a soft drink abstainer, told the L....
Within the first two episodes of the newest season of American Horror Stories, there is already a notable shift in its content. Unlike the first season of American Horror Stories which sporadically starred any of the horror franchise’s alumni, its second season has made a habit of it. Last week saw the return of Denis O’Hare and this week, “Aura” features the return of American Horror Story’s Gabourey Sidibe, who has starred in Coven, Freak Show, Hotel, and Apocalypse, as well as Greenfield, who also appeared in Hotel....
“We don’t have evidence that this disease originated there,” Cotton said of the lab, “but because of China’s duplicity and dishonesty from the beginning, we need to at least ask the question to see what the evidence says, and China right now is not giving evidence on that question at all.” Cotton’s comments were nuanced: He wasn’t certain that COVID-19 had leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but he considered it to be a possibility, and he was troubled that the Chinese government was failing to offer the transparency necessary to prove it one way or another....
A move to Stuttgart in the 2.Bundesliga last season seemed to be the perfect chance for Green to develop — he’d drop down a level for a half-season and then end up back in the Bundesliga when the club earned its likely promotion. Stuttgart did find its way back to the Bundesliga, but unfortunately, Green saw his playing time fade as the season went along. Once the newly-promoted side started league play this season, the 22-year-old attacker was not even in the gameday 18, let alone near the starting XI....
Across the nation, Americans recognize the importance of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, a life-saving humanitarian initiative that has offered new hope to the world’s most in-need refugees for more than four decades. The last four years saw a hollowing out of this program. Refugee admissions decreased by more than 85 percent and certain groups—including Muslims and those fleeing some of the world’s worst crises like Syrian and South Sudanese refugees—saw their access deliberately barred by the Trump administration....
The question of what an elite is gets to the challenge that every democracy faces. Every society has an elite. In every society there are some people who rise to positions of power, wealth, privilege and authority. In every society there is some organizing principle by which you can describe them as rising, whether that’s who their parents are, what their religion is, what kind of education they had, or where they are in the culture....
Dr. Anthony Fauci, longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, appeared on several Sunday TV news programs urging Americans, particularly older or ailing Americans, not to travel as coronavirus cases continue to spread. Fauci said it’s “possible” the U.S. could lock down entire cities or regions, notably the Seattle area, using a similar containment tactic in Italy. He also said there has been an “acceleration of cases” over the past week and he urged “social distancing” and keeping away from all crowded places...
