Had good exchanges on the phone this weekend with Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer. We discussed our unflinching support to Ukraine, financially and militarily. We shared updates on our contacts with US partners and discussed plans for the defence and security of our continent.

He nails it.

What Trump and Ted Cruz are doing to SCIENCE of all kinds from medical research to climate to diversity in workforce. Read and weep. Great writing. Devastating quotes from scientists. 💙📚🧪 🌎 🔬 ⚒️ #geosky #ClimateHealth #ClimateAction undark.org/2025/02/21/a...

Tomorrow is voting day in Germany. I will also host a little Repair Cafė. I have no time for this, like you, but it is important what we do. It takes a little effort to stay a democrat, invest. It's much less effort than to fight it out of the ruins again.

Being a citizen of Austria, the birthplace of Adolf Hitler, and having personally talked to survivors of the Nazi regime, I must emplore you: Stand up against this madness or it might be too late!

Stop burning food!

BBC News on hour reporting straight that Trump has got rid of military chiefs because ‘they’re too mired in woke culture’ 🤯🤯🤯 Traditional liberal democratic media still hasn’t learned how to report on authoritarians, even now when it’s almost too late

This is really the right-leaning New York Post’s cover this morning.

This is essentially Trump’s policy on flood waters from climate change:

Trump administration plans to stop depopulating chicken farms when they detect bird flu. They'll stress vaccines and biosecurity. Soon, it'll be easier for a chicken to get vaccinated than a child in the U.S. On a related note, this would be a good time to give up hot wings if you haven't.

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

“German voters want more climate protection! Even in the AfD and the CDU/CSU, only 7 and 6% respectively want less. So why do these parties want to roll back climate protection?“

David Lammy doesn't want to interrupt a JD Vance love-in www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Glaciers provide stable melting water to a very large % of all farms in the entire world. When (not if) we lose this stable, slow, dependable glacier melt water, our food system will collapse.

My warmest greetings go out to the wonderful people who built their careers sniffing out “Ukrainian Nazis” under every stone in Ukraine for tasty headlines that fueled Russian war propaganda on this-is-why-Ukraine-must-be-dealt-with, only to get Nazi salutes normalized in their own country.

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

"High climate sensitivity implies a large contribution from amplifying feedbacks: water vapour, surface albedo (sea ice/snow) and clouds." "(...) our main concern is the danger of passing the point of no return, when the warming induces shutdown of the AMOC..."

All dystopias make themselves invisible by becoming the “new normal”: a tolerable form of pain no one ever dares describe as a “dystopia”, given they have nothing to compare it to

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

For all my colleagues who want to be on Donald Trump's 'good side' - just remember: There's more room under the Trump Bus than on it.

Watch this clip, folks 👇 Does Bannon sound like he's joking about Trump becoming dictator for life? Because he isn't.

Which billionaire are you most excited to die on the battlefield for?

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

In 1943, Columbia Prof Nathaniel Peffer wrote: “America might drift into empire, imperceptibly, stage by stage, in a kind of power-politics gravitation." And, “That there are certain stirrings in this direction is apparent, though how deep they go is unclear." Now we see that they go deep.

I wonder how the Pax Americana will resemble the end of the Pax Romana… hopefully with a faster increase in European capacity for self defense.

Climate advocacy groups file two lawsuits against Trump administration

Renewable energy powered by the sun & the wind offers us the potential to replace the fossil fuel industry with a new energy system. A system that does not exploit us & our planet & ensures that everyone has access to the energy they need to thrive. 5 reasons why renewable energy = social justice👇

"I, a professional political commentator, was so excited about Trump persecuting minorities and trashing the climate that I was completely oblivious to his obvious sympathy with Putin. Please pay me for my political analysis." I mean, rejoice over every sinner who repents and all that, but come on

Trump: I AM A KING! NYT: Trump displays a "fondness for regal themes"

If Trump and his gang aren't bound by the law nor the constitution, why are you? Currently the system of checks and balances is being destroyed at a speed that would have launched most countries into riots or open revolt. This is a constitutional crisis and your constitution isn't doing so well.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

This is an absolutely crazy deal!* ALDI is offering a 6kW solar system, with a 5.1kWh battery, *with installation* for $8k! Absolutely fucking nuts! * Obvious caveats about checking the offering is right for you and your circumstances. This is so, so, so cheap. Do your due diligence!

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

Hardly any Americans sympathise with Russia re Ukraine. 4%. V 62% sympathising with Ukraine Even Republicans: only 6% sympathise with Russia. V 52% sympathising with Ukraine. That 24% “NEITHER” (31% if republican) suggests a startling level of ignorance

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Just in case people have forgotten, Trump has an abiding hatred of Zelensky for refusing to pursue Biden and his son, Hunter in an investigation Trump wanted opened in Ukraine, as he thought it would help Trump’s 2020 Presidential run. What you see now is spite
