Tourists beware 🇫🇷💸 In France, “tax-free shopping” often isn’t free. Companies like Global Blue keep 40 % of your VAT refund — and even luxury brands like Hermès accept it. See #Hermes response below Translation: "Taking more of YOUR money is OK" #VATRefundScam #DetaxeAbus

Is it come to this? Even Apple is doing dark pattern and "roach motel" techniques now! The "Cancel Subscription" button does not work!? What gives @Apple @AppleTV

No one should retweet this.
Trump: Governor Moore is doing a bad job. Newsom is doing a bad job. All of their potential candidates are doing a bad job. I can't imagine Pritzker being even a candidate. He’s not temperamentally suited.

Donald Trump gets a gun as a 4 times indicated person (potential felonies)... no problem. Hunter Biden gets a gun and "forgets" to say he is a drug addict (not convicted).. GOP freaks out and demands to impeach his father. Totally normal! yeah sure.

At this point, Let's just realize what is going on and let's just disband the "Supreme Court" ™️. It is a for-profit corporation right?

Does @Expedia understand that there are other methods of travel then flights? Let's try it: ❓ Barcelona to Montpelier? Answer: 17 hours! 2 hrs flight to Paris, 11+ hours layover, train to Lyon, train to Valence,... - each train has things like "27m flight" 😂🤣

Replying to @AliVelshi
@AliVelshi I agree with your monologue about our democracy in crisis. It's been a long time coming: stopped adding Representatives in 30s, the Filibuster has been there for a while.. in 200+ years, many politicians simply ignored our Constitution too often! How do we fix it? /1

Some ideas: 1. Add DC and Puerto Rico has states. 2. House to 930 3. Remove / reform Filibuster 4. Reform SCOTUS 4.1. Ethic rules 4.2. Age limits 4.3. New appointment system 5. Voting right act None of these require an amendment. I'll have to read the book. thanks.

The Canadian Government has made a new tourism ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative! 🇨🇦

Poilievre posted a video explaining his analysis of the housing crisis and how he plans to fix it. I’m seeing a lot of people agreeing with all or part of his position. I want to take a moment to show what’s wrong, incredibly wrong, with his analysis and supposed solution. 1/18
Trapped in housing hell? You’re not alone. Here’s how we get out.

This article is right! DO NOT pardon Trump! There needs to be consequences. Pardoning Nixon partially caused this. I didn't know about Lee, but, yes, being too lenient with the Confederacy led to white supremacy. Accountability! If Trump did the crimes. Let him do the time.
It’s time for the nation to move on. But should that mean pardoning Donald Trump? nyer.cm/YzJ4CiC
