For Armenians, vindication appears near amid reports that Biden may recognize the genocide. “We’ve been an oppressed people persecuted for hundreds of years and I think for somebody to acknowledge that pain is really meaningful." ⁦⁦@lila_seidman⁩ https://t.co/vz1tme0jo8 — PolitiTweet.org

In his conflict with the West, Putin depends on the threat of escalation. "This is theater, in part. But it is theater that is important for our system." ⁦@antontroian⁩ https://t.co/1k9tBDK5Jo — PolitiTweet.org

While Biden gathered world leaders to talk climate, the limits were clear: Australia, India, Indonesia, Mexico and Russia made no new pledges to cut down on oil, gas or coal. And China says cooperation will hinge on other disputes. ⁦@SominiSengupta⁩ https://t.co/TRt1LXAHdz — PolitiTweet.org

Israelis are partying like it's 2019, write ⁦@SBHendrix⁩ and ⁦@shira_rubin⁩. With most adults vaccinated and new infections down to just 140 a day from a peak of nearly 10,000, the beaches, restaurants, bars and concert halls are full again. https://t.co/0lHpazVef9 — PolitiTweet.org

As Biden reversed himself on a campaign promise to significantly increase the refugee cap, his administration repeatedly contradicted itself as it tried to explain the policy shift--which it later claimed wasn’t a “change in policy." ⁦@RiegerReport⁩ https://t.co/0MAjgoTRjz — PolitiTweet.org

SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft has arrived at the International Space Station and the crew has boarded. With 11 astronauts now on the station, it is the most populated it has been since the shuttle era. ⁦@wapodavenport⁩ https://t.co/JIsGz3ZXp6 — PolitiTweet.org

While some in the GOP oppose the Afghanistan pullout, James Baker supports it: “I admire the fact that President Biden had the courage to end up and say we’re going to get out of Afghanistan. It’s time to do that.” ⁦@tarapalmeri⁩ ⁦@dlippman⁩ https://t.co/xvyf5WhwKU — PolitiTweet.org

Along the Canadian border, a vast vaccine disparity: In southern Ontario's Niagara region, just 2% are fully vaccinated while in Erie and Niagara counties on the US side 32% have been. ⁦@a_coletta⁩ ⁦@emilyrauhala⁩ https://t.co/rpeR1vLtqG — PolitiTweet.org

Biden has pledged a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, but the White House hasn’t set any specific targets yet for agriculture, which accounts for 10 percent of all US emissions. @RyanMcCrimmon https://t.co/0tNHEGQQ5b — PolitiTweet.org

The ordinary flu all but vanished during the pandemic as Americans took precautions that, as a side benefit, kept them safer from influenza. Just 2,000 cases have been recorded since September, less than 1% of the normal number. ⁦@collinskeith⁩ https://t.co/PFTtqKXjgU — PolitiTweet.org
