As The National Guard Arrives To Process Corpses, Ted Cruz Fusses About His Turkey Day

Description

The Great State of Texas is staggering under the weight of surging coronavirus cases and deaths. Morgues in Texas are overflowing, and the National Guard has been sent to El Paso to process bodies. Across the state, thousands are lining up for food rations. But the nightmarish conditions haven't stopped the state's Republican senator from keeping his Thanksgiving holiday plans on track. Business Insider reports Sen. Ted Cruz tweeted an insensitive graphic depicting a turkey with the words 'come and take it' below it. The tweet suggests he has no intention of following the advice of health officials this coming holiday. Dr. Anthony Fauci and other experts have warned that large, in-person gatherings this fall could spread the coronavirus and create another uptick in cases.

Riot police clash with May Day protesters in Istanbul

Riot police clash with May Day protesters in Istanbul's Sarachane neighbourhood, with tens of thousands of officers deployed across the city to clamp down on similar gatherings. Istanbul's central Taksim Square was closed to rallies after 2013 demonstrations against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's government, a move that was ruled a violation of rights by Turkey's top constitutional court in 2023. Protesters and a number of opposition politicians have called for the square to be reopened to labour rallies. IMAGES
