Kylian Mbappé responds to racist remarks from Paraguayan senator Celeste Amarilla.
Celeste Amarilla’s racist comment:
"The brute never even learned how to write; instead of mother's milk he sucked coconuts, and the most educated thing he heard was chimpanzees. You should have shown him the finger, Orlando Gill - I do it in the Senate and nothing happens!!!"

Mbappé’s response:
“You are a despicable woman and unworthy of your position.  
You do not represent Paraguay, that country which has sweated passion and honor throughout the competition. Through your recklessness and your brazen racism, the entire world has already forgotten the journey and the historic effort that your players accomplished during this World Cup, making way for an incompetent woman who gives the worst possible image of her country.  
I will never allow people like her the freedom to spread their hatred and racism across the world.”

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Trump is “saying across the board that ‘if I don’t like it, I’m not going to enforce it,’” said Peter Shane, a law professor at Ohio State University and a scholar in residence at NYU. “To my knowledge, no other president has taken that kind of stance.” www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Trump orders the government to stop enforcing rules he doesn’t like
Critics say the administration is breaking the law and sidestepping the rulemaking process that presidents of both parties have long followed.
