Vladimir Putin plans to send Russian children to a summer camp in North Korea where activities include polishing the statues of leaders. Grigory Gurov, the head of Putin’s Movement of the First youth organisation, announced the plan despite opposition from worried Russian parents. “We will now form our delegation,” he said. “Conditions there are good.” The children will be the first Russian group for five years to visit the Songdowon camp, built on North Korea’s eastern shore by dictator Kim Jong-un’s grandfather in 1960. Accounts from Russian adult leaders on previous trips described Songdowon camp as a cross between a...

Yes, that headline is clickbait. No, I am not sorry. After all, a fantasy is a major element of this essay, so I can vaguely justify the connection between the headline and the story. Rachel Maddow ‘worried’ Trump will send her to ‘camps’ if he’s elected president.https://t.co/1eIIB32V1m pic.twitter.com/ylSmvQFLTU— New York Post (@nypost) June 11, 2024Of course, I could argue that I fantasize about Rachel Maddow being carted off to a camp, but the truth is I don't. Maddow is good for a throw-away story every once in a while, but she only matters to me because she is a spokesman...

Anti-Israel protesters set up an “intifada” encampment on the campus of state-funded City College of New York Thursday — with participants raising a Palestinian flag over a quad. The encampment was set up Thursday morning, and by the afternoon the Convent Avenue campus was riddled with flags and signs, video from independent reporter Talia Jane showed. “Palestine calls this University Intifada,” Within Our Lifetime organizer Nerdeen Kiswani said into a megaphone, per indie reporter Oliya Scootercaster. “We have a right to control where our tuition goes and that it should never go to oppressing any people anywhere!” Kiswani added in...

It's allows the Dept. of Health to pick and choose which New Yorkers they can lockup or lockdown without any proof that you’re sick, without any proof you’ve been exposed to a communicable disease. There’s no time limit so they could lock you up or lock you down for days or weeks or months. There’s no location restriction. They can put you in any facility they want…And then once you are locked up or locked down, there’s no procedure in this regulation that says how you get out of quarantine once you’re in there.”

The city of Phoenix has cleared out its largest homeless encampment and displaced thousands of people after a court ruling declared the camp a 'public nuisance'.

The sweep comes after a judge imposed a November 4 deadline to remove tents, trash and makeshift structures and told the city to find alternative housing for people experiencing homelessness. Some of the people who were displaced had lived in the area for years...

Troubling new images reveal the hellish conditions of a makeshift camp on the California side of the US-Mexico border, where migrants and their kids huddled in garbage bags, begging for food. The trash-strewn encampment — which popped up between a primary and secondary border wall in San Ysidro, hastily arranged by Border Patrol — is filled with people who were hoping to take advantage of the Biden administration’s end to the pandemic-era Title 42 and gain legal entry into the US. Since that expired and has been replaced with tougher new measures, their future became uncertain. Video shot by a...

The city of Phoenix will begin clearing the city's largest homeless encampment in the wake of a court ruling after neighbors brought a lawsuit against the local government. The homeless camp, known as The Zone, is located steps from the state Capitol building and the Arizona Diamondbacks' stadium. The city's Democratic Mayor Kate Gallego said in April that she agreed with the demolition of the camp 'in spirit.' While in March, Arizona's liberal Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoed a bill that would ban people setting up tents in public spaces. The lawsuit could be used to help other city's attempts to...

The Post counted 71 vehicles during a recent visit, where locals blamed local authorities for encouraging the encampment in the area —...
