Dr. Anthony Fauci urges Americans not to accept "Normalization of Untruths".

🇧🇪🇩🇰🇪🇪🇫🇮🇩🇪🇬🇷🇭🇺🇱🇻🇱🇹🇵🇱🇵🇹🇸🇰🇸🇮 These are the first 13 EU countries to request the activation of the national escape clause under the ReArm Europe Plan/Readiness 2030. It will give them more budget space for defence spending within EU fiscal rules ↓ europa.eu/!fXYQwj

Terry Morans face is all of us. "The Declaration of Independence is a Declaration of unity and love" This dumbass is president

It's hard to wrap one's head around how dumb Trump thinks many Americans are when he says the economy shrinking is Biden's fault. You'd have to be so incredibly stupid to believe him that it defies comprehension. And yet, somehow, millions will.

This exchange is so very telling. Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this: "I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Correct.

Mark Carney is exactly right. 🎯 People who blindly voted for the convicted felon have set America back 50 years. And they got NOTHING in return.

One more for the day

Have a good weekend, everyone.

🇬🇧 Prince Harry secretly visited Ukraine, meeting wounded Ukrainian soldiers in Lviv, — The Telegraph. He also held talks with Ukraine’s Minister for Veterans Affairs, Natalia Kalmykova.

I welcome President Trump’s announcement to pause reciprocal tariffs. It’s an important step towards stabilizing the global economy. Clear, predictable conditions are essential for trade and supply chains to function.

Today, EU countries backed our proposal to impose trade countermeasures on the United States, in response to unjustified steel and aluminium tariffs. Duties will apply from 15 April. They can be lifted at any time, should a fair and balanced negotiated solution be found. europa.eu/!xDcp9C

Ukraine is fighting a war that only Russia wants to continue. The urgency of international support for Ukraine is clear. Extract of my press conference with Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and Commissioner Marta Kos following the EU-Ukraine Association Council ↓

Europe is ready to negotiate with the US. We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods. Because we're always ready for a good deal. But we’re also prepared to respond with countermeasures. And protect ourselves against indirect effects through trade diversion ⭣

The bond between the EU and Ukraine keeps getting stronger. Today, I was happy to witness the signature of five new agreements with Ukraine. These cover important areas, from rebuilding Ukraine’s energy infrastructure to the participation in our Copernicus satellite programme.

Guess who joined Blue Sky @kamalaharris.com

I would like to speak to my fellow Europeans ↓

The universal tariffs announced by the US are a major blow to businesses and consumers worldwide. Europe is prepared to respond. We'll always protect our interests and values. We're also ready to engage. And to go from confrontation to negotiation. Full statement → europa.eu/!mHxFMh

Schimel lost.

🔥 @ninajankowicz.com: "Mr Taibbi said when he was first searching through the so-called Twitter files he didn't know what he was looking at. Well, he still doesn't. Everything looks like a conspiracy when you don't know how anything works."

Just because it is not on our soil doesn't mean that we are not responsible. It is OUR sitting government that is doing this. We are responsible. Saying, "No the Republicans are doing it." Does not absolve us of our responsibility. We are ALLOWING this. Make no mistake. #fightback #resist

Ursula von der Leyen throwing shade: “Congratulations to Greenland’s new government and Premier-elect Jens-Frederik Nielsen. “You deserve partners who respect you and treat you as equals. “And the European Union is proud to be such a partner for you.”

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

Really glad to see that this program was reinstated. Shows that pressure and scrutiny can have an impact.

😂🤣😂

If you’re a small business and need help with EU sanctions compliance, we have your back. We’ve launched the EU Sanctions Helpdesk to offer practical help. EU sanctions regimes are key to our diplomacy and we’re committed to helping businesses comply. More info: europa.eu/!Hm8tTj

Good morning

The EU confirms that no sanctions on Russia will be lifted until a full withdrawal of Russian forces from all territories of Ukraine.

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history. Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

People need to stop using this stupid term, "democratic backsliding." Democracy isn't backsliding. It under assault by fascists, theocrats, and white supremacists. Ukraine isn't "backsliding," FFS Russia invaded it.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Today, the European Commission has provided €1 billion to Ukraine via an MFA loan, to be repaid using proceeds from immobilized Russian assets. This move solidifies the EU's position as the top donor supporting Ukraine since Russia's war began.

Trump is gleeful about ending the Dept of education. The reason is simple: the less educated the more likely people are to vote GOP.

Our information space is nothing less than a geopolitical battleground. Russia has invested over a billion euros in their state-controlled propaganda outlets in the last few years. It is increasing year on year. My speech at the Conference on FIMI → europa.eu/!pFBFNP
