Same pattern we saw in the US election.

I celebrate the 80% of Germans who did not vote for the far right. Do not make 19.6% of German voters into "the" German people (again). "The" German people don't exist! The German population is diverse and divided, but voted overwhelmingly for liberal democratic parties. #BTW25 #GermanElection

Here’s my prediction for DOGE: Whatever minimal amount of money it may possibly save in the short term will be far exceeded by the ultimate cost of fixing all of the problems it creates. It’s already an epic failure.

… Both fighting to undermine the #EU🇪🇺 freedoms, regulations & securities that protect citizens from power abuse💰 & conflict. The @ec.europa.eu must confront #Trump🇺🇸 libertarians (& #Putin🛢️ threats) with the same firm, no-nonsense response, or risk the 🇺🇸 descent to mayhem arrives also to our shores

Volkswagen is now selling 4x as many EVs in Europe as Tesla is. Tesla is fifth in a sector it used to dominate

Its weird thinking about land cause even though it’s owned, and the ownership is given such huge regard in Ireland, land functions like a commons. What’s done to it affects us all and there’s no way of individualizing the effects of what happens to it. Land destroyed and damaged hurts all of us

1/US demands Ukrainian minerals or face cutoff from Starlink. It is the most venal form of economic coercion. And it will only accelerate the backlash to US tech platforms. Now Starlink = AWS = Facebook for friends and foes alike. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

This is fucking stupid.

This is just climate denial. The climate denial Naomi Seibt expresses here is a core part of the AfD’s policies, which Musk amplifies. #climatechange

Climate change is the biggest crisis humanity faces in the 21st century and just because they are trying to eliminate all mentions of the word “climate“ doesn’t actually solve anything.

For those who still believe Russian propaganda: #Zelensky had already offered Putin negotiations On February 25, 2022—just one day after #Russia launched its full-scale invasion—Zelensky publicly called on Putin to negotiate, hoping to stop the bloodshed. The response? Silence.

I never get the question: "Merien, how do I know if I'm at a Nazi rally?". Mainly because people know. People do not find themselves at Nazi rallies by accident. But in case you're wondering, here are some clues.

"Ukraine started the war," lies Andrei Kelin, Russian ambassador in the UK and laughs. When Victoria Derbyshire says it's a lie and asks why he's laughing, Kelin says - you listen but do not hear. Russians want history textbooks to be written by Russian propagandists. #StayWithUkraine

The Moscow Institute of Computer Science has "caught fire", I felt a great disturbance in the algorithm, as if millions of bots suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Legacy media’s reluctance to state plain facts is alarming. Trump is a liar, a convicted liar, who is illegally consolidating power and threatening U.S. allies. Calling this what it is shouldn’t be difficult. The media is failing us and itself under the guise of ‘neutrality.’

Some information about the current state of Russian economy. (As usual, I will preface by saying it is important to keep up the economic pressure on Russia and continue supporting Ukraine) ◾️ Russian minister of economic development, Maxim Reshetnikov, said that the Russian economy⤵️

Pues ya estaría.

With science under attack in all areas of research, including climate change, repro health, & public health, political advocacy is more important than ever. @csldf.org offers free legal resources for scientists to engage safely & effectively in political advocacy. www.csldf.org/political-ac...

When Stalin and Hitler signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in 1939 to carve up Poland between them, they at least had the good grace to do it secretly. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

For the millionth time: we need a European Army and we need it now. Not simply more spending. Not simply fiscal rules exceptions. Not simply a military industrial policy. Not just coordination of national capacitirs. We need an Euro Army.

Stories like this are what the cryptocurrency economy that financed Trump's election in 2024 is built on top of.

Liquified gas is an expensive, dirty fossil fuel Europe needs energy that's affordable and 100% renewable, not to lock itself into another dependency The EU Commission should drop this awful idea and invest in renewables and insulation to cut gas use and bring people's bills down #StopFossilGas

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

The QAnon administration: pro-child sexual abuse, pro-CSAM, pro-human trafficking. Perversion as praxis.

On the heels of multiple airplane disasters, including one less than a month ago that killed 67 people, and after years of warnings about our understaffed air traffic control system, Trump has begun firing hundreds of FAA air traffic control workers. apnews.com/article/doge...

The AfD are right about declining free speech in Germany. There's been way too much, against pro-Palestinian protesters. But make no mistake, they don't actually care about pro-Palestinian free speech. They probably just want to hate speech on immigrants more freely.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

It’s cute he thinks Trump would read this. And care if he did.

This one goes out to all the faculty and researchers trying to maintain normalcy. Or anybody else pretending it’s business as usual. #letterpress

This is all illegal and unconstitutional. I just can’t stop saying it. This administration is likely to dismantle all of the programs I worked with over the last 25+ years. Programs designed to save lives and $ by applied climate science. Used by many 1000s of Americans to manage water, energy, etc.

This has always been Trump’s, Elon’s and the GOP’s intention. The end of fair and free elections in the Unites States.
