Big win against terror finance: @TheJusticeDept seizes nearly $2M in crypto tied to Hamas. Shadowy networks like BuyCash won’t get a free pass—digital currencies are no safe haven for extremism. CEP welcomes this move by @AGPamBondi @ARCHERathouse88 jpost.com/israel-news/ar…
Why is James O'Brien back on air this morning? There’s been no apology, no explanation, nothing at all as far as I can see yet. Come on @LBC - sort this out now.
This is appalling. It is completely unacceptable. @LBC must deal with it immediately and ensure nothing like this can happen again. I’m sure they’d be taking the presenter off air if racist nonsense was read out about any other minority

A German court upheld the classification of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as a “suspected right-wing extremist” by domestic intelligence. This decision rejects a complaint filed by AfD over the classification. dw.com/en/germany-upd…
Sharing some observations from my latest trip to Niger, the capital Niamey and the economic center Maradi. Two years ago I was about to open an office there for a huge EU project to train political parties. Well now … @KAS_africa
