Donald Trump wishes ‘happy Thanksgiving’ to ‘Radical Left Lunatics’ who tried to ‘destroy our country’

Donald Trump has shared a Thanksgiving message on social media, but it’s not meant for his fans. The president-elect wished a “Happy Thanksgiving” to “the Radical Left Lunatics” who tried to “destroy our Country”.

Don’t worry, our Country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong, and you will be, more than ever before, proud to be an American!” Enthusiastic holiday messages are not uncommon for Trump. In fact, they have now become a kind of tradition. For instance, on New Year’s Day 2019, he shared an all-caps greeting to his followers, including “the …

How Gukesh was shaped by a radical ‘experiment’ proposed at age of 11 by his coach Vishnu Prasanna | Chess News

How Gukesh was shaped by a radical ‘experiment’ proposed at age of 11 by his coach Vishnu Prasanna | Chess News

In a month’s time, there is a possibility that 18-year-old Gukesh could go where Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov, Viswanathan Anand, and Bobby Fischer could not. He could become the youngest-ever world champion, getting to the throne in his teenage years, something that has not been done in the history of the world championship, which has been fought since 1886. In his career, Gukesh has been close to tags like the youngest ever on a few occasions. He earned a world championship title clash against Ding Liren by becoming the youngest-ever winner of the Candidates at the age of 17, which also made him the youngest-ever qualifier for the world championship match. He also came within touching distance of becoming the world’s youngest grandmaster ever — missing the tag by just 17 days — when he became a GM at the age of 12 years, seven months and 17 days. What stands out about Gukesh’s career trajectory, though, was a radical “experiment” proposed by one of his earliest coaches, grandmaster Vishnu Prasanna. It was that move …

Music Review: Dua Lipa’s ‘Radical Optimism’ is controlled dance pop

NEW YORK — In the chorus of “Whatcha Doing,” the fifth track on Dua Lipa’s latest album, she sings: “But if control is my religion / And I’m headed for collision / Lost my 20/20 vision,” referencing the unexpected pull of a new partner.

View: Radical politics the driver in Punjab & Canada, the target is PM Modi | Latest News India

Two events are taking place in the run-up to Lok Sabha elections, that are not mutually connected, but the fundamental driver is radical politics. In Canada, the Justin Trudeau government continues its anti-India stance, but the Canadian authorities are contradicting the claims made by some sections of the government. In India, farmer unions have assembled at the borders surrounding the national capital. There is no direct connection between the Khalistan bogey in Canada and the farmer protests in India, the underlying inspiration and motives seem to be similar. Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher, in green turban wearing a gas mask, walks with protesting farmers towards the police barricade near Shambhu border.(AP) What is happening in Canada? Five months ago, Trudeau accused the Narendra Modi government of orchestrating the assassination of Babbar Khalsa International terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was gunned down last June. Five months have passed but Trudeau has not been able to substantiate even an iota of what made him make such a public allegation against the Indian government. To complicate matters further, …

Neither Rousing In Style Nor Radical In Approach- 1.5 Stars

A still from Indian Police Force . (courtesy: itsrohitshetty) Rohit Shetty’s indefatigable cops make an ungainly, if not wholly wobbly, landing in the universe of web shows. They go after “India’s most wanted terrorist” – a young man who has sinister plans up his sleeves but looks like he would be hard-pressed to swat a fly. The resultant thriller is hackneyed and devoid of genuine heat and dust. Indian Police Force,an Amazon Original Series, is, for all intents and purposes, a slightly altered and toned-down version of Sooryavanshi (2021), which was Shetty’s fourth Cop Universe movie. If anything is different here, it is this: the seven-part series isn’t as strident in tone as the film. It pits an intrepid Muslim police officer against a radicalised youth out to wreak havoc across India. The series makes no visible attempt to be a gritty, granular portrayal of the men and women who make up the overworked security apparatus that battles day in and day out to keep India’s sprawling national capital city safe. It pans out in …

Why Made In Heaven’s Dalit Wedding Is More Radical Than You Think

With much talked about episode 5 of Made in Heaven 2, Neeraj Ghaywan redefines the discourse on caste in mainstream Hindi filmmaking. While many films dealing with the theme of caste prejudices have been made in the last decade, almost all of them approach caste as a system of discrimination and place their hopes in modernity and a mirage of a casteless society. The episode is radical because it questions the very idea of a casteless society, as it demands adherence to upper-caste norms and the erasure of the Dalit past. Instead of advocating Dalits joining the mainstream by forgetting their past, it asks for the reclamation of history and its celebration. A still from Made In Heaven 2: The Heart Skipped A Beat Neeraj Ghaywan has consistently made films on Dalit themes, and with his career, the discourse around Dalit issues has also evolved. Tracing his cinematic work, one can also see a journey of the theme itself. Masaan (2015), Ghaywan’s debut film, traces the journey of a Dalit boy and an upper caste …
