E ovviamente, come aveva previsto e ora fa notare giustamente Sergio Scandura di là, partono immediati i pizzini dell'Ambasciatore Muskiato in Italia all'amica Gioggia (il secondo era già partito 2 giorni fa)

Andrea Stroppa, l’uomo di Musk in Italia, contro Fratelli d'Italia: “Vi accordate col Pd? Allora evitate di chiamarci”. Il fatto che un imprenditore straniero possa solo pensare di condizionare la politica italiana in questa maniera fa capire il livello di megalomania di Elon Musk.

In a week that feels chaotic and damaging, it’s important to uplift wins when we get them. And boy did we get them yesterday. I discuss three big court victories, backed up by pissed off judges looking to enforce them, in my write-up: https://buff.ly/4kelFlo

How to change a swastika that cant be removed

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

Dichiarazione del Presidente #Mattarella a tre anni dall'aggressione dell’Ucraina da parte della Federazione Russa

🤥📺 How Viktor Orbán’s propaganda works: Hungary’s state TV counted CDU & CSU’s projected seats separately in their Germany election coverage to make the far-right AfD—Orbán’s new ally—look stronger. Meanwhile, Orbán only congratulated AfD on X, ignoring the CDU. (via Vastagbor FB page)

Friedrich Merz, Germany's new chancellor: "For me, the absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible so that, step by step, we can really achieve independence from the United States” #GermanElections #CDU

La #Santanchè che spaccia per autentiche borse taroccate è la metafora perfetta del governo di cui fa parte.

A must read "Silicon Valley and authoritarians share the same goal: to crush dissent by keeping their would-be opponents spinning on an endless hamster wheel of reactive anger. And just like in the classic 1983 thriller WarGames, the only winning move is not to play." www.404media.co/you-cant-pos...

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), è stata una storica, filosofa e politologa tedesca naturalizzata statunitense, una dei più influenti teorici politici del XX secolo.

Oggi ci sono le elezioni in Germania e non so che terrore mettermi.

E poi, fuori onda alla fine del suo intervento, Giorgia ha detto: "volevo morì". Chissà cosa voleva dire con questa espressione?

Listen up.

He nails it.

Lo so, la situazione internazionale è preoccupante e tutto sembra precipitare, ma aspettate a disperare: deve ancora vincere AFD in Germania. Dopo sì, disperatevi pure.

FOX NEWS: You are against people bringing in eggs that have not been-- I mean, we have the USDA for a reason. These could be contaminated and bring illnesses in. GALLEGO: Absolutely. This is why we shouldn't be firing USDA inspectors that are actually doing oversight over avian flu

This is the text of the bullshit email all federal government employees just received from the Office of Personnel Management (or are about to receive).

Il ricatto Usa a Zelensky sull’accordo delle terre rare, il ruolo di Musk: «Stacchiamo internet di Starlink se non accetta» https://www.open.online/2025/02/22/stati-uniti-minaccia-ucraina-starlink-accordo-terre-rare/

Memo per ogni governo, ogni presidente del consiglio ed ogni ministro che ritenga, anche solo lontanamente, che utilizzare starlink per servizi e connessioni della PA possa essere una buona idea. Non lo è, anzi, è una stronzata galattica e renderebbe “a-nazzzione” ricattabile. No grazie Eof

Here’s the email everyone is getting from OPM. Embarrassing stuff.

This. Is. Insane.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

i know people are coming here for catharsis and that's fine but when you are done screaming please pick something you can do that will help people and do it. you don't accomplish anything by rolling around in the fear all day

1000000000000066600000000000001 is a prime number…it is also a palindrome. It’s called ‘Belphegor's prime.’ ‘Belphegor’ refers to one of the Seven Princes of Hell (due to the ‘666’ in the middle & the 13 zeroes on either side). So that’s cute.

Musk is so predictably petty.
