NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Tezla 2025.

Donald installed loyalists everywhere. A shame they are utterly useless and may eventually contribute to bringing down the fake and illegitimate US of A.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

If you had asked me five years ago "What country's leader in 2025 would most people want to have a beer with?" I never in a million years would have said Ukraine. And yet, here we are. What a fucking guy, man. I wish my country elected leaders like him. Victory to Ukraine.

Trump wants to be an autocrat like Vladimir Putin—and that starts with collecting cowardly oligarchs who pay you to be kind to them. He has that. Now he's moved on to trying to create vassal states like Russia has Belarus. He wants Ukraine to be a vassal state and is enraged that Zelenskyy refuses.

Trump and Vance would NEVER, EVER, talk to Putin like that. And everyone knows it.

Trump and Vance just made Zelensky one of the most popular leaders in the world.

Why does Donald want money back from Ukraine, but not from Israel?

Where were you when Donald John Trump accepted Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin's marriage proposal? #RUSA

Blimey! Donald is wholeheartedly backing Vladimir Putin? Be careful who you vote for.

Time for Europe to ignore an arrogant USA in disarray and take charge.

33 of the 35 American countries are south of Gulf of Mexico. Just sayin'

Witnessing the corrupt Elon-Donald presidency fire 14,000 people from USAID and shutting down most of its work is exceptionally sad and depressing. Norway with its sovereign wealth fund should take over operations to help save thousands or even millions of lives. www.garfors.com/post/norway-...

Norway should take over all the USAID operations asap. to prevent widespread deaths, famine and a collective hatred towards the western world. Otherwise China will rise to the occasion. Or what do you think, Jens Stoltenberg? NORWAID the new USAID. www.garfors.com/post/norway-...

Support Canadian alternatives!

Canada should join the EU or the EEA.

The world should boycott goods and services from the USA and rather trade with each other. Buy Canadian, Mexican, Danish, Korean and South African instead. Don't engage in trade wars, avoid them.

This bullshit trade war with Canada is a smokescreen for some nefarious fucking shit folks.

The USA putting tariffs on Canada and Mexico is like Norway doing it to Sweden and Denmark. Not being an arse to your best buddies isn't that hard.

Obamacare, Bidenomics, Trump Tax.

here's today's post: "imbecile guts air safety, then demands to know why a plane crashed" — management-by-vendetta sure is working out swimmingly. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

Donald wants war? The eagle on the presidential seal at his WEF speech was not facing left towards the olive branch that symbolizes peace, but towards the right, which allegedly symbolizes war. Maybe don't vote for a criminal bully.

Norway should step in and fund WHO after USAs exit.

plutocracy - rule by the wealthy kleptocracy - rule by corrupt thieves kakistocracy - rule by the worst, least qualified But what if it's all 3 -- what's the word for that?

Orange man can call the Gulf of Mexico whatever he wants; in the Netherlands the English Channel is called the Dutch Channel.

Distractions, they are all distractions.

THE WORLD'S LEAST-VISITED COUNTRIES In 2019 I published a book about the least-visited countries. I have now updated the figures with the most recent available ones: www.garfors.com/post/the-wor...

Be careful who you vote for.

Surround yourself with the kind of people who read banned books.

Wild and stunning Ireland.

Once a con man...

Not to travel would be insulting my mind. And my curiosity, creativity and worldview.
