I miss student protests at US universities after the first budget cuts! Of course, I don't advise foreign students to participate, because they're probably no longer subject to the fundamental right to freedom of expression!

Foreigners are currently selling 2 trillion US bonds. The Chinese will sell 1.4 trillion US bonds. Then Trump will be history, and the great economic crisis of 1929 will be a gentle breeze compared to what is coming next. And Trump will end up in a retirement home for the mentally abnormal.

The only thing that helps against people like Trump and his administration is university education, as Potus has correctly recognized. That's why he's now cracking down on every kind of educational institution!

This POTUS is and remains completely insane. Nobody understands why he starts trade wars, why he destroys institutions, why he accuses Ukraine of starting the war against Russia, etc. All completely insane and irrational. I very much hope that this Nero-like reign of terror will end soon.

Trump's hatred of educational institutions is reminiscent of the triumph of the Nazi block wardens, who were finally able to show their stupid power to the students!

Does anyone realize what Trump's purpose is with the ups and downs of the tariffs?! On the stock market, this is called market manipulation. It's a crime. His followers know exactly when to buy or sell to profit!

I just read on the news ticker that the NSA director was fired. This could be the beginning of the NSA taking more active action against American citizens. Things are getting even more serious, and hopefully you can do something about it!

he is the one who is endangering world peace by tolerating the Russian war of aggression - not Selenki!

Do not allow your government to humiliate you any further. This president is dragging America through the mud. With his ridiculous and dangerous behavior and extremely incomprehensible fluctuations of mind, he will cause irreparable damage to world politics and the American people.

Today no. 3 - the last one - of the European military reconnaissance satellites system CSO had been successfully launched with Ariane 6 at 16:00 UTC. After alignment they should also be available for Ukraine after the US has also stopped their military intelligence system for Ukraine.

We Europeans and the UK are 500 million people with a combined economic output of 22 trillion US dollars a year. We should not be afraid of a corrupt and incompetent regime like Vladimir Putin's, who rules over 142 million Russians with an economic output of just 2.2 trillion US dollars a year.

Even American security experts doubt whether a US president would really be prepared to risk the destruction of an American city of millions by Russian long-range missiles for the sake of a security pledge to distant European states. Europe must pool its capabilities - just do it!

An EDO could still be cooperating with the NATO and existing in parallel but when the strongest allies would be stepping out all of a sudden, the EU part would still be operational and independent in its military decisions through.immediate transition to EDO.

A European army does not necessarily have to be build up via the EU - for sure Mr. Orban would be blocking this. The current European NATO partners could be splitting from NATO and founding in parallel an EDO, independently from the EU internal necessity of the agreement of all member states.

For the period that the USA needs to withdraw from NATO - initial introductory words have already been spread by Mr Musk in preparation - we should establish a purely military European defense pact (e.g. EDO: European Defense Organization), which should be founded parallel to NATO in a short time.

Don't believe those who want to convince you that we are military wise weak in the EU without the USA. If Ukraine can make things so difficult for Russian military, we all are (27+1) times stronger together!

Europe, wake up, we seem to have lost our strongest partner, they are busy with themselves. We wish them strength and all the best in their fight against the Republicans. Europe should stand up immediately and show Russia military strength.

“HE” hurls insults at Zelensky and blames the Ukrainian leadership for Russia's war. “HE” has his sights set on the country's raw material wealth and links US aid to war-torn Ukraine with the exploitation of the valuable rare earth reserves. He is crazy! Who will stop this tyrant?

An honest peace deal should be achieved - not an economic deal which would be squeezing Ukraine financially. A real help is gifting money - not loaning it or stating “I only gonna help when you offer something to me”. That’s Mafia methods. Shame on you Trump and Vance.

Democrats and Republicans - only together you can successfully depose and fight “HIM” with democratic means and analyse how it could happen. Good luck!!!

I am honestly deeply shocked!

Not Zelensky is “gambling with the third world war” but Trump and Putin!

The host's behavior towards the state guest Zelensky was disrespectful, not the other way around. Trump hardliner Rep. Senator Graham commented afterwards that one could not negotiate with Zelensky, someone else would have to step in. That was a premeditated goal of the US government - dirty game!!

Has anyone ever seriously questioned the relationship between Trump and Putin? People, wake up, everything seems so obvious. It was certainly no coincidence that the Vice President was also present as a supporter at the Zelensky press conference to support Trump against Zelenski's correct arguments!

I wonder whether doing business is more important than honest peace negotiations with legitimate security guarantees. My impression after the scandal during Zelensky's visit is that this scandal was planned so that it could be claimed later that Zelensky should be replaced.

Hello, dear American Democrats, I know it's hard to organize... gather peacefully in Washington DC in your thousands and show on signs what you think about current politics. There will definitely be a few Republicans who will join you. You should become visible!! Don’t wait for another 4 years!

Trump's latest statement: "The EU was founded to rip off the USA". Warning, irony: I hope he doesn't come up with the idea that the EU must be destroyed and if Russia can’t do it, then maybe together with the USA using military means!

Why didn't the US representatives at the Munich Security Conference say a single word about the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine? Instead, it was falsely claimed that there was no more freedom of speech in Europe! We just don't allow fake information aiming to mislead the opinion of the people.

Democracy is in danger, was the message from the US vice president @ Munich security conference, especially because Trump and his lackeys are demonstrably and objectively doing exactly what they accuse Europe of doing: Silencing dissenters, falsely accusing others of fake news, destroying democracy.

Maybe there is something to the rumor about the Russian state spy nicknamed “Krasnov” - just google it! I just want to mention that its origin is difficult to follow but it could at least be a scenario - also CIA will be drastically affected by staff cuts!

Hey guys, after Mr. Elon failed to buy Google's AI division (actually his future competitor), he built his own called xAI. The government has announced that they will start a 500 billion AI program. Guess who will win the bid! Everything is so obvious and hopefully you won’t stand idly by!

When you're lying on the ground bleeding and helpless, a potential helper who comes by says, I'll only help you if you sign over your salary to me for the next 10 years! Is that fair? Without exaggerating - these are mafia methods. Does anyone stand up!? That’s how Trump is treating Selenski!

It would be worth trying to use this democratic means of demonstration. But it has to happen quickly - better today than tomorrow!
