On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country. They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

My mind drifts back to the people who told me that "all politicians are the same" and that it made "no difference" whether Harris or Trump won.

Just noticed that the IrishGenealogy.ie website has been revamped. It's awful and comes a few weeks after the @NLIreland revamped the 1901/1911 census page, making a hames of it as well. Why "fix" things when they are not broken? Or without any consideration of users?

#Merz fragt, wo die #Antifa war, als Walter #Lübcke ermordet wurde. Merz fragt, wo der Aufstand der Anständigen war, als Walter Lübcke ermordet wurde. Achtung: es kommen Fakten. Etwas, was Merz und #CDU nicht mögen. #thread

This is quite funny. In his district (which happens to be most of my family’s district), Lindner got fewer votes than the FDP.

The second biggest party in Germany, the far-right AfD, is so extreme that the bloc of far-right parties in the EU expelled it. A prominent member refused to say NAZI SS members were criminals. It downplays the holocaust. It was strongly endorsed by Elon Musk. JD Vance also lent his support.

Die Linke are hitting nearly 30% in the city of Leipzig. AfD on around 21%. CDU in third, followed by the SPD & the Greens. Amazing result.

Left party most popular among first-time voters, with 27% of vote, up 19 points since last election #germanyvotes

That the Left party has almost bounced back from the dead to increase its parliamentary representation is the only consolation on a very grim day for Germany, where one in five voters backed the far-right AfD.

Merz has won, but what won't be mentioned by anyone at the CDU is that when he took over the party, Merz claimed he would return it to results better than anything Merkel achieved for the party in her time as Chancellor. At 29% he is still 3% below her worst result in 2017.

Elon Musk follows a select group of people on X, mostly world leaders, tech mogouls and celebrities. But he also follows a small number of fringe Irish characters who have an outsize influence on the multi-billionaire. Our investigation: www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2025...

Das Massaker von #Hanau ist eine tiefe, offene Wunde auf meiner Seele. Nicht weil ich erlebt habe, was Opfer, Überlebende und ihre Angehörigen durch dieses rassistische Massaker erleiden mussten. Wohl aber, weil mir meine Erfahrungen sagen: Du warst gemeint. #HanauIstUeberall

A victim in #Sweden's mass murder, Bassam Al Sheleh. A father of two who came to Sweden from Syria. Worked making bread and food, and on days when he had Swedish language classes -- where he would be killed -- he would start at 4-5am, then work late after classes. Loved TikTok.

Musk has sicced his followers on the WSJ writer who reported on a DOGE staffer’s racist online, history demanding her firing. This is a tactic Silicon Valley’s neoreactionaries have been advocating for years: Pick a reporter, dox and harrass, make an example of them, make everyone else afraid.
