Honduran Ex-President Is Freed After Pardon, Lawyer Says

THE NEW YORK TIMES: The lawyer for Juan Orlando Hernández, a former president of Honduras who had been convicted in the United States of drug trafficking charges, said on Tuesday that his client had been released from a federal prison in West Virginia after receiving a full pardon from President Trump. Mr. Trump’s announcement of the pardon last week came as a shock to Hondurans and to U.S. officials who had built a major case against Mr. Hernández for flooding the United States with cocaine. » | NYT | Tuesday, December 2, 2025

À Beyrouth, le pape appelle le Moyen-Orient à « surmonter les divisions politiques, sociales et religieuses »

LE FIGARO : Léon XIV présidait ce mardi une messe en plein air devant environ 150.000 personnes. Peu de temps auparavant, il s’était rendu sur le site de l’explosion de 2020, qui avait ravagé en 2020 le port de la capitale libanaise.

Encourager, encore et toujours. Au dernier jour de sa visite à Beyrouth, Léon XIV n’a cessé de demander aux Libanais de croire au renouveau de leur pays. Jusqu’à donner presque un ordre, pendant la messe finale, en plein air, sur le bord de mer, devant 150 000 personnes : « Liban, relève-toi ! Sois une maison de justice et de fraternité ! Sois une prophétie de paix pour tout le Levant ! ». » | Par Jean-Marie Guénois | mardi 2 décembre 2025

Venezuela : Maduro danse en défiant les menaces d’intervention américaine

LE FIGARO : VIDÉO - Le président vénézuélien Nicolas Maduro a promis lundi de rester «pour toujours au service du peuple», alors qu’il rassemble ses partisans à Caracas dans une démonstration de force pour son mouvement socialiste.

Danser pour oublier. Alors que les menaces d’intervention américaine s’intensifient sur son pays, le président vénézuélien a rassemblé ses partisans à Caracas et assuré qu’il ne se laisserait pas intimider. Nicolas Maduro semblait imperturbable sur scène lundi 1er décembre en dansant sur un remix de ses propres slogans pacifistes.

Le morceau électronique, intitulé «Paz si, guerro no» (La paix oui, la guerre non), reprend en effet des extraits de discours de Maduro. Des centaines de milliers de partisans, brandissant des drapeaux vénézuéliens, ont assisté à la cérémonie. La foule a acclamé l’homme de 63 ans, coiffé d’une casquette rouge rappelant la casquette de baseball MAGA, lorsqu’il s’est mis à danser. » | Par Juliette Picard | mardi 2 décembre 2025

Au lieu que Nicolás Maduro fuie le Venezuela, il serait bien plus judicieux que Trump quitte la Maison-Blanche ! Nicolás Maduro a sa place au Venezuela, car il est vénézuélien. Trump, en revanche, n'a pas sa place à la Maison-Blanche, car c'est un imposteur. Il a vraiment le culot d'exiger que Maduro quitte son propre pays. De toute façon, Trump ne veut de lui qu'une chose : s'emparer des précieuses réserves pétrolières du pays. Il veut s'enrichir encore davantage, lui et les autres Trump. C'est répugnant ! — © Mark Alexander

At this rate, the world will be lucky to avoid a world conflagration. Lunatics are now in charge of the asylum! — © Mark Alexander

Sohn von NS-Kriegsverbrecher konfrontiert AfD-Anhänger – unterwegs mit Niklas Frank | stern TV

Oct 23, 2019 | Sohn von NS-Massenmörder verurteilt AfD-Rhetorik

Auf einer Wahlkampfveranstaltung hat Niklas Frank, Sohn des NS-Massenmörders Hans Frank, mit Anhängern der AfD gesprochen.

Er ist eines der wenigen Kinder hochrangiger Nationalsozialisten, die sich vom Dritten Reich und ihren Eltern distanziert haben: Niklas Frank ist der Sohn des Juristen Hans Frank, der 1939 von Hitler zum Generalgouverneur im von den Nazis besetzten Polen ernannt wurde, und der als „Schlächter von Polen“ in die Geschichte eingegangen ist.

Seit Jahrzehnten setzt sich Niklas Frank kritisch mit den Taten seines Vaters auseinander. Er sieht eine große Ähnlichkeit zwischen den hetzerischen Worten der Nationalsozialisten und den Aussagen führender AfD-Politiker. Auf einer Wahlkampfveranstaltung in Thüringen hat der 80-Jährige jetzt mit AfD-Anhängern gesprochen und sie mit Aussagen der Parteispitze konfrontiert.

DHS Dismantles Civil Rights Oversight Before Mass Deportation Push, After DC Shooting

“The Empire Has Never Been More Naked” - US Media in Trump’s War with Venezuela | The Listening Post

Nov 29, 2025 | The United States’ deadly “counter-narcotics mission” off Venezuela’s coast hinges on an unproven drug-smuggling narrative - a familiar pretext for regime change, and one the mainstream media have been quick to echo. Meanwhile, Venezuelans face escalating repression at home.

Trump Reportedly Gave Maduro Ultimatum to Relinquish Power in Venezuela

THE GUARDIAN: US president sent a ‘blunt message’ to his South American counterpart, sources say

Donald Trump reportedly gave Nicolás Maduro an ultimatum to relinquish power immediately during their recent call – but Venezuela’s authoritarian leader declined, demanding a “global amnesty” for himself and allies.

On Sunday, the US president confirmed the call had taken place, telling reporters: “I wouldn’t say it went well or badly, it was a phone call.”

Neither the US nor Venezuelan government have offered further details of the topics discussed during the highly unusual conversation, which is thought to have happened on 21 November.

But sources told the Miami Herald the US president had sent a “blunt message” to his South American counterpart, who is the focus of a four-month pressure campaign in which Trump has ordered a massive naval deployment off Venezuela’s northern coast.

“You can save yourself and those closest to you, but you must leave the country now,” Trump reportedly said, offering safe passage for Maduro, his wife and his son “only if he agreed to resign right away”.

However, Venezuela’s president reportedly refused to step down immediately and allegedly made a series of counter-demands, including worldwide immunity from prosecution and being allowed to cede political control but keep control of the armed forces. » | Tom Phillips, Latin America correspondent | Monday, December 1, 2025

Danger in the Baltics: The Threat from Russia | DW Reporter

Nov 30, 2025 | In Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia, Russia's proximity shapes everyday life. While NATO is increasing its troop numbers, people are trying to maintain normality — with family celebrations, running businesses, and a belief in peace. Farmers like Andzejs Petkevics are harvesting their last potatoes under the shadow of increased border controls and military presence. In Lithuania, Birute Krakasuskiene runs a kebab shop, where her regular customers are soldiers from the country's largest NATO base. And on the Estonian island of Hiiumaa, Ave Ungro is involved in the women's civil defense force to be prepared for an emergency. But the question remains: How do you live in the crosshairs? A film about fear, hope, and everyday life on Europe's most sensitive border.

Trump Explodes at Another Female Journalist

Dec 1, 2025 | Trump has attacked a third female reporter in just two weeks — this time calling her “stupid” multiple times for quoting facts from his own administration’s documents. Earlier this month he called another reporter “piggy,” and another “ugly.” Ring of Fire’s Jerrod Zisser breaks down the full pattern, the verified facts from DOJ and DHS records, and why targeting women journalists is more than an insult — it’s an attack on accountability, press freedom, and anyone who asks questions he doesn’t like.

Trump is such a vulgar, coarse, impolite and moronic man who is so unworthy of the presidency. I hope that the Americans who voted for this man are pleased with themselves for re-electing such an indecorous man to the highest office in the land. The people who voted for this man deserve all they get. Unfortunately, we decent people, be they American or from overseas, have to live with the fallout. — © Mark Alexander
