Kretschmer sieht immer aus als hätte ihn der Ring der Macht bereits korrumpiert, 5 Min. bevor die Fellowship von Rivendell überhaupt erst aufbricht. Der kam nicht mal bis Elronds Briefkasten.

My wife just bought something from ‚posh‘ Waitrose that was cheaper than from ‘middle class’ Sainsbury’s, and now I don’t even know where I belong anymore class consciousness wise, not only a rootless cosmopolitan on an island of strangers, but also socio-economically unmoored in my grocery shopping

Werde es nie ganz verstehen, wie es Japan z.B. schafft für 1.3 Mrd. US$ ein ca. 9.500t Kriegsschiff zu bauen mit 90 VLS-Zellen (Zerstörer der Kongō Klasse), und wir bauen jetzt wieder für 1.4 Mrd. € pro Stück eine 10.000t Fregatte mit einem 16-Zell VLS.

One of the reasons why populism in general and Trumpism in particular is successful, - as my and others’ research shows -, is the mobilisation of voters via emotionally compelling narratives. Too often center-left parties only offer technocratic managerialism in response. Dems in NY got the memo.

Rightfully scathing verdict by @maxbergmann.bsky.social on the NATO summit. "NATO and European leaders have decided to pretend that nothing has changed." The UK buying into NATO nuclear sharing is part of this pretense, spending limited funds on a program that just increases dependence on the US.

Scholz and his designated successor agree that something historic happened that day in Washington. The Americans are threatening not only to abandon Ukraine but also all their allies“ Fascinating background reporting on how German Leaders realized that US support of NATO is no longer reliable.

Trump rülpst zufrieden nach der Matjes Vorspeise in Den Haag. Rutte: Hurrah, es schmeckt ihm, die NATO ist gerettet. Putin kann einpacken. Das ist doch alles nur noch Gaga-Geopolitik.
