The brief
A luxury island resort project involving Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner has triggered widespread outrage and a movement to overthrow the Albanian government. Protesters have adopted the name 'Flamingo Revolution' as the population remains divided over the project, which some describe as a 'land grab.' Coverage from WIRED, Mother Jones, and Raw Story emphasizes the potential for the project to bring down the Prime Minister.
DW and New Lines Magazine focus on the nature of the protests and the public's embrace of the movement, while The Jerusalem Post reports that anti-Israel rhetoric is appearing on the fringes of the demonstrations.
