The former one-term president slapped the man seen as his primary threat, Florida Gov. Ron DeSandis, with the label “DeSanctimonious” and tried a racially-tinged moniker for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngin as he tries to fend off any challengers for his party’s 2024 nomination. For Trump, who has long seen himself as a wrecking ball within the party, it’s pretty much the same playbook he ran in his successful 2016 campaign and his failed 2020 re-election campaign....

Léa Jaillard : Les règles de sécurité n’ont évidemment pas été respectées ou en tout cas insuffisantes. Ce que nous attendons de ce procès, c’est une suspension à vie du permis de chasser. Pour nous, c’est la mesure clé, car c’est une sanction qui n’est jamais imposée par les chasseurs et nous considérons que nous n’avons pas le droit à l’erreur une fois que nous avons entre les mains une arme d’une portée létale de plus de 3 km....
