Once again I am leaving the Munich Security Conference in a low mood. Amongst all the noise, the US signalled their plans for Europe, so things are becoming clearer. But things are clearly not good.
This is what we now know, and what we have to do about it:🧵1/17

- Commit to European funding for Defence.
- reactivate the Western European Union structures, get the Canadians and Turks on board, and transplant most of the European assets of NATO there.
- demand to replace the US Saceur with a European.
😢
The Felon elected to be POTUS, is supported by approx 31.6% of all eligible US voters.
The remaining 68.4% did Not vote for him, Nor supports his destructive path.
For this reason, I think a better question to ask may be, “What now are Trumps European interests?”
We the People need to demand a new election to see real numbers
He could barely fill school auditoriums, she had RECORD registrations.
There's RAMPANT evidence of malfeasance and the fact it's being ignored is the most vomit inducing part
Without any additional numbers though, those were the only numbers I could cite.
Know what I mean?
US has no bargaining leverage towards Ukraine, if Trump doesn't give them real security and a lasting European peace🤬 Time for all 630mio Europeans to support Ukraine's victory and secure lasting peace in Europe❤️🔥Use 300bill USD russian frozen assets NOW🙏

We prefer to be strongly aligned with Europe and Canada, despite the plans of a vile fascist president named Trump, a neo-Hitler
The problem is that Trump gave the signal to China that the U.S. is a headless chicken — that’s a humongous problem.
If Ukraine has strategic resources, Russia has them in spades. & If push comes to shove, the people in east Siberia might plausibly like American protection better than Chinese.
- Elon & Trump aren't going to cross Putin:
That at least isn't a fundamental part of their characters. They both *could* betray Putin. It depends on the circumstances. It is unlikely that anyone could engineer them ... but worth a shot. What do we have to loose?
Trump notoriously doesn't like to take a backseat to anyone.
It's sort of shocking he's letting Musk take such a limelight.
I assume Trump thinks whatever Musk is doing will redound to his own glory. We can only hope that one of these outrages will collapse under Musk.
KIM Trump is no loyalist. Putin has always been able to dangle larger carrots in front of him. But "all of Russia" isn't something Putin is prepared to offer.
Europe should send an army to support Ukraine. Send tanks, missiles, drones, and soldiers to operate them.
I’ll be one of them.
Frankly, the colder and quieter this happens, the better.
A close friend has died of a brain disease, but we the living must persevere.
Please don't think we all think like the orange felon because we are trying to fight back.
If you see #Resist or #Resistance, that's us fighting to get our country back!
- Isolate fascist regimes & promote human rights, nope let's go full christo fascist & burn books
- rules based world order, fuck that let's build our empire by threatening soverign allied nations for Lebensraum*
America you've gone full nazis Germany
It’s weird. Someone online described it as being tied to a chair watching a toddler play with a loaded gun.
Funding to essential health services has been cut and marginalized people will start dying very very soon.
We remember Hitler came for the Germans first.

I’m horrified and embarrassed to be an American right now.
Historically, we’ve kicked their asses before and we’ll do it again.
Not all Americans are ignorant and hate filled. It just feels true.
What kind of “fucked up” is that? What war was ever solved, what cease fire was ever made with only the aggressor attending negotiations?
Fuck that is the dumbest thing I HAVE EVER HEARD
He's made his enemy list quite clear (I'm on it in several areas. Congratulate me.) and I've got teenage computer coders with my bank account info.
Battle
That small band of allies is in fact an incredible force, totally capable of destroying moskovite horde. Nordics, Baltics, Visegrad, Benilux, UK, Romania are ENOUGH!
Only thing is not there yet is resolve! Wake them up and the rest will come
Also we need to take over the US place in NATO and its functions. EU should do that.
But NATO's mistakes should not be repeated.
Only mind games...
💙💪💙💪💙💪💙💪💙💪
💙💪💙💪💙💪💙💪💙💪💙
We have great power competition and Europe can be a great power.
The US has or is handing all of its soft power to China anyway.
And better to stand on our own feet.
How many Americans have died just in accidents while deployed to Europe since 1945? Driving, training, on leave, etc. The Italians who died from the gondola strike….
All pissed away by an idiot for Putin’s headpats
The US and Europe have paid in blood for this relationship, a few lives at a time, for 80 years.
And it’s just tossed aside by ignorant idiots.
What do all the lives lost mean now? Their sacrifice so flagrantly desecrated.
By people who can’t even imagine duty.
Here's a map that pertains to WW2, when est 26M soviet citizens died. Can you see that NATO tanks and missiles threatening russian cities is a provocative issue that must be addressed, if we are to avoid a reborn warsaw pact?
After WW2 the Soviets occupied a larger land mass as an iron curtain descended. Nato and Warsaw Pact now confronting each other, but this time with nuclear weapons.
Peaceful coexistence is what Im talking about.
We need to replace our digital thinking with some analogue thinking when we try to resolve this, and in doing so avoid nuclear catastrophe.
The sooner the Russian army is in Russia and only Russia - so out of Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia etc. - the sooner Russia will have earned the right to peaceful coexistence. Right now it has not.
Naturally, putin will continue with his siege mentality until the NATO threat is removed. Or perhaps you think a european army should be stationed in ukraine?
Russia is the biggest country in the world. Far too big, evidently, for the Russians even to build roads & sewers for everyone. Putin is not under seige in any meaningful sense of the word.
My earlier point still stands
I was born in the shadow of atomic war. Now, we can offer our children a break from the past and instead of US/NATO v Warsaw Pact, encourage democracy in russia by reducing the existential threat to its borders.
Those poor souls were victims.
Every Remembrance Day we should pledge never again, and we should not forget how tyrants cause wars, not you and I.
Now, I'm ashamed of my country and what it stands for. Americans are hated across the globe.
All because on the monster in our White House.
This is going to be really bad.
Wake up Europe and grow a spine!
Most of us did. The orange man stated in public that Elmo did stuff to computers. Who is investigating it? Are there international elections watchdogs who can do it now that our law enforcement and intelligence agencies have been decimated? America need the world’s help.
Every single person who has lost his job through Musk has to start so that the rest of the population follows suit. There is no other option. The people must defend themselves.
Only together are you strong
fight.

My point is, OUR ENFORCEMENT SYSTEMS ARE NOW COMPROMISED. We need pressure from the world.
This closing speech goes to the heart of the matter and brings home what JD Vance’s speech had on this conference. America has lost its principle.
Pining for a US from 200 years ago
And is it even possible to do everything the Americans are doing currently?
Thank you for the writeup and for a clear message. I wish media would cut through the noise like this.
Europe is strong when needs be. We will prevail and come out stronger.
Not that I think it's good, but that's the way it will be.
Let's see when the first labor camps for political prisoners in America will be built secretly. Hello Russia and China.
None
Stay strong and carry on
will fall.
2. All joined countries leave NATO
3. Let the new organization join the NATO
Speak as one strong Europe.
Mind games... Unfortunately, it sounds very unrealistic, yet.
It will not undermine the credibility of EU banks because Russia, brutally violating international law, is certainly not your normal client.
In any case Russia is obligated to pay reparations, so the assets will never return to Russian control.
The US is the ultimate loser. F this guy.

I’m sure our European allies will be anxious to come to our defence.
Twice impeached, 34 felonies, and an ATRACK ON OUR CAPITOL!!
HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISQUALIFIED!!!!
Europe makes plans for Europe.
Trump works for Putin and only steals from Americans.
If that happens, he ended it by handing over Ukraine to Russia. That was the plan all along.
Trump desperately wants to be seen as "the strong guy", like other dictators. His narcissistic need is sick and dangerous.
Trump is a greedy douche bag. There are many of us who stand with Democracy. We support you.
U.S. citizens must not allow the Trump government to keep your children stupid. If that works for Trump, the U.S. will be lost.
Só long for the penny to drop. Sheer lunacy or …. Greed.
I have nothing against Lithuania but very often I wish you would be a leading politician in France or Germany at this time.
All democracies will need to be closely aligned including, public safety & security, technology defence , freedom of movement and so much more.
Thx @commonerx.bsky.social
F**k Trump, if he wants to play silly bugger, we must start planning a world order WITHOUT him.
Thing is, I have a bet on with someone that he wont [politically] last the full 4 years, and it looks like I may win that bet?
The Supremcy Clause is invalid if the constitution isn't being followed. He's an ILLEGITIMATE president according to the 14th amenedmern.
He's not adhering to or heeding his oath as well.
He HAS NO supremacy & won the election through malfeasance, was not voted in.
How the f*ck did you guys not see this coming?
It's not.
It's Russia and the US discussing how they're going to divvy up Ukraine.
Their plans for Europe don't matter, Europe's plans for Europe do.
Stop letting them dictate the agenda.
Nobody can trust or rely on the US right now.
Take this opportunity to grow.
There is a cancer here, and it must be cut off before it can spread any further.
I fought so hard against this. I'm so sorry for what we've become.
I don’t think all his wishes are going to come true.
I don't think America can get there without near-total collapse.
Germany is still working on it 80yrs later. 🤷♀️ Honestly think it will take 🇺🇸 LONGER, cuz they knew better- they had all the lessons from history to learn from, passage of time, +everyone warning them, & they STILL repeated it.
You know what they say about taller pedestals.🤨
Lobbying has just become bribing.

The powers that nudged America might likely already have their hands in European politics.

The shame & embarrassment I feel for my country is nearly overwhelming.
This is NOT the America I grew up in!
These are NOT the Republicans I enjoyed debating!
This is NOT the faith I was raised in!
Scary AF!
It will be difficult bc propaganda has deep roots and will be bombarding ...
I don't own your house, if I sign a paper with your neighbor to say your garden's owner is your neighbor, it doesn't apply.
Nor Trump neither Putin owns Ukraine.
The government's of the world govern with our consent.
If that’s possible, they should make a pact together asap.
But besides vatniks there are those who foolishly believe that it would not be necessary and are fighting the necessary budgeting. There's a real danger that they'll only agree on pourring the necessary money into it when things will already have gotten really bad for THEM.
Our only hope is in a federal union, NOW.
Tommorow in paris and Munich europeans leaders have to built it: an european army, integrate ukraine and canada in UE, uk once again. Put out hungary and slovakia or suppress the rule of the veto for the qualify majority.
#FreeUE
Reality on the ground in Europe is not bad at all.
Even if it feels like the US has become a new Hungary for the moment it will hopefully change in the future and Europe can take care of itself for the moment.
Brexit was a level of stupidity that should never have happened in the first place.
