In Poland, Nationalism With a Progressive Touch Wins Voters. Four years ago, Agnieszka and Adam Kowalczyk were struggling. They both had full-time jobs — she as a teacher and he as an electrician — yet month after month they found themselves falling deeper into debt. So when Jaroslaw Kaczynski and his Law and Justice Party promised voters that they would introduce a generous infusion of cash for families with children, the Kowalczyks figured they would give them a chance — even if they were deeply skeptical. “I didn’t really believe they would deliver on their promises,” he said. “They were the lesser of two evils,” his wife added. Law and Justice not only kept its promise, it also set out on the most radical overhaul of the economy in a generation — one that has built a floor under low- and middle-income families and proved wildly popular with voters like the Kowalczyks.

The Yom Kippur shooter intended to carry out a 'massacre' and was found carrying close to nine pounds of explosives, Germany's top prosecutor has said as photos reveal the injuries he sustained in a battle with police. He was escorted by police officers from a helicopter to his arraignment on Thursday ahead of an appearance in court, and had a white bandage on his neck from where he was injured the day before. 'What we experienced yesterday was terror,' said Peter Frank, the chief federal prosecutor. 'The suspect, Stephan B., aimed to carry out a massacre in the synagogue in Halle.' Questions remain as to how the assailant, Stephan Balliet, 27, was able to get hold of the weapons he used in the assault. Frank said his weapons were 'apparently homemade' and the explosives in the car were built into 'numerous devices', Bild reports. 👮🏻♂️

Terrified residents were seen fleeing on foot, by car and piling rickshaws high with their possessions as they left their homes - a grim echo of how they sought refuge from the Islamic State only a few years before. Trump - who ordered American troops out of the area - said Turkey's incursion into the area was a 'bad idea' and said that Washington 'does not endorse this attack.'💥😱
