🇹🇳 “A dark day for democracy” - western news agencies on the referendum in Tunisia.

Several news agencies, including the Washington Post, link the voting results with a purported failure of democracy in the region, fearing that "Tunisia could send an ominous signal to the rest of the Middle East and North Africa. At stake is nothing less than the fate of the Arab world’s most promising experiment in democratic governance.”

Commenting on the event, the Guardian said: “Many view Saied’s moves as a nail in the coffin of the Arab Spring. Tunisians are expected to approve giving the president unfettered powers, ending the country’s stumbles towards democratic rule and capping the turbulent decade across the region known as the Arab Spring."

🏛President Biden has blasted a trio of Florida politicians --Gov. DeSantis, Sen. Marco Rubio, and Sen. Rick Scott-- on social media, blaming them for opposing an assault weapon ban and endangering cops.

“Leaders like Governor DeSantis, Senator Marco Rubio, and Senator Rick Scott are all opposed to banning assault weapons,” Biden tweeted. “And to me, it’s simple. If you can’t support banning weapons of war on America’s streets, you’re not on the side of the police.”

The offensive came after Sunshine State officials aimed at the Biden administration during a pair of high-profile GOP functions in Florida over the weekend.
