What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

The US government is running blatant operation to replace Zelensky. Aim of ambush at the white house was to erode his domestic support and destabilize Ukrainian politics. Change my mind.

The Trump administration has relaxed restrictions on how U.S. commanders approve airstrikes and raids, U.S. officials said Friday, paving the way for the U.S. military to respond more rapidly to perceived threats.

This whole thing was a deliberate set-up, and the real audience for it was not the American people. It was the global fascist movement.

It has never just been something as small as blackmailing with kompromat or funneling money under the table for political interference. Trump and Trumpism broadly are ideologically pro-Putin. They endorse and support his worldview and see him as a role model for how they think the world should work.

The mistake is to think Zelensky could have salvaged this. Trump admin just doesn’t want to support Ukraine. Period. There was also never going to be a peace agreement. That’s been clear but everyone has been pretending otherwise. There can be no confusion now.

Tässä vakavassa ja poikkeuksellisessa maailmantilanteessa meillä olisi voinut olla vakaa, luotettava, osaava ja arvojemme mukainen pääministeri, Sanna Marin. Sen sijaan, lyhytnäköisesti äänestettiin populisteja, joilla ei ole antaa todellisia ratkaisuja, vain moraalista pelkuruutta.

The Trump administration terminates funding for polio, HIV, malaria and nutrition programs around the world. “People will die,” said Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi of the African Population and Health Research Center, “but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.”

Given that the Trump people did nothing to induce Russia to end the war, it’s fair to conclude that the whole idea of pursuing peace was just a pretext to renew relations with Russia.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.

Everyone needs to stop doing Normal Politics re the Trump regime. None of that has any purchase or relevance any more. Shift the discourse. I only hope our leaders can see what’s happening and accept that their frames of reference no longer apply.

Part of the lesson here is that Trumpists, like many bullies, don’t handle it well if you stand up to them rather than caving. If Trump or Vance or their supporters had any character this petulant display and Zelenskyy’s defiance would be humiliating to them.

One of the people fired from NOAA today is the director of the Ocean Acidification Program. That program also leads the U.S. government's effort on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The destruction of American science is incomprehensible.

Edellisen kerran, kun geopoliittiset ja diplomaattiset liittoutumat menivät näin radikaalisti uusiksi, Euroopassa kuoli yli miljoona ihmistä; tämä oli 1700-luvun puolivälissä seitsenvuotisen sodan seurauksena. Silloinkin vastuussa olivat itsevaltaiset, omaa napaa tuijottavat monarkit.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

Remember: the televised punishment & humiliation meted out to Zelensky just now could be done to any NATO ally facing similar aggression. The sense of sneering hostility & contempt by Trump & Vance isn’t specific to Ukraine.

Toivottavasti tämä valkoisessa talossa tapahtuva farssi avaisi mahdollisimman monen silmät; Trumpilla ei ole minkäänlaisia neuvottelutaitoja, hän osaa vain uhkailla. USA ei ole luotettava liittolainen Euroopalle ja heille ei pidä antaa mitään myönnytyksiä, he eivät kykene vastavuoroisuuteen.

Kapitalismissa ei ole ollut tarpeeksi pidäkkeitä kaikkein eniten rahaa ja valtaa haalineille. Siksi lopulta poliittiset järjestelmätkään eivät voi heidän mielivallallensa rajoja asettaa. Eivät he katsele sivuilleen ja pohdi tekojensa moraalisuutta tai yhteiskunnan resilienssiä. Vallanhimo sokaisee.

Otan tämän talteen sitä ”shocked Pikachu-face” -hetkeä varten, kun Trump vetää USA:n pois NATO:sta. Sillä Trump tulee vetämään USA:n pois NATO:sta heti, kun on kiristänyt niin paljon suojelurahaa panikoivilta jäsenvaltioilta kuin vain saa irti.

Pitkään pohdittuani päätin lähteä myös SDP:n kuntavaalien ehdokkaaksi. Haluan olla osaltani vaikuttamassa siihen, että Joensuussa on hyvän elämän edellytykset opiskelun, työn ja vapaa-ajan suhteen. Kuntapolitiikka antaa ja ottaa; minä aion jatkossakin olla hankala pehmeiden arvojen puolestapuhuja 😁

The headline that 21 DOGE staffers have resigned is a little misleading. These were employees of the United States Digital Service, which existed pre-administration and was absorbed into Musk’s team. These aren’t the young idiots; these are actual civil servants.

USA:n presidentinvaalien jälkeen on puhuttu, että Trumpilla olisi vahva mandaatti. Vaaleissa annettiin 153 miljoonaa ääntä, ja vain 230 000 ääntä kolmessa osavaltiossa määritti Trumpin voiton: Wisconsin (30 000), Michigan (80 000), Pennsylvania (120 000), eli 00,15 % ero.
