Bwahahaha. Mar-a-Lago was listed as "Kremlin Headquarters" for a little while on Google Maps. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

The Trump effect. What goes around, comes around.

Three years since brave Ukrainians, many still wearing sneakers and blue jeans, began welcoming our Russian neighbors as they poured into the country. The video that launched a million memes of defiance and independence - Ukraine's fight will be a model for generations.

Scheint so, als hätten eher ältere Männer auf dem Land Angst, nachts allein auf die Straße zu gehen?

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia. Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist. Extraordinary.

Die Linke ist die stärkste Partei bei den Jungwähler:innen. 25 Prozent der 18- bis 24-Jährigen haben der Partei hre Stimme gegeben. Auf Platz 2 folgt die AfD mit 20 Prozent. Der Überblick und alle weiteren Ergebnisse: https://der.spiegel.de/3XdbtQa #btw25

Faktisch hat Merz knapp 22 % geholt

Union mit ihrem Merzias nun also - 13 Prozent hinter Merkels bestem Ergebnis und - 4-5 Prozent hinter Merkels schlechtestem. Das wird man ja wohl noch sagen dürfen.😉

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker - published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 - features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!

Not all heroes wear capes 🤣🔥

As it happens, Trump has gone so far off the cliff that Europe isn’t divided but closing ranks. I figured that it’ll become politically difficult for European politicians to try and suck up to him because electorates see what Trump is doing and are very angry. But it’s even better than expected:

I’m old enough to remember when firing people because they’re a woman or Black was not considered anti-DEI. It was just called discrimination and bigotry.

Der frühere kasachische Geheimdienstchef & einstige KGB-Offfizier Alnur Mussajew/ Mussayev hat einen brisanten Post veröffentlicht: Donald Trump sei 1987 [Tipper korrigiert!]vom KGB als "Krasnov" rekrutiert worden, behauptet er. Text mit @bastianbrauns.bsky.social:

European police and law enforcement agencies should start adjusting their cooperation with U.S. authorities in light of this incredible and dangerous decison.

Let‘s face it: Mit der ganzen Zeitenwende in den USA und den Auswirkungen auf Europa wird die Schweiz global zu einem NPC.

Sanna Marin throwing some impressive shade here: ”To start, Europe must rid itself of the dangerous illusion that it is weak—and stop acting like it. There is no trade-off between investing in the defence of Europe as a whole and investing in the defence of Ukraine—they are one and the same.”

Trump administration is planning to use polygraphs to assess federal employee loyalty. There are ways to manipulate polygraph results, and we will provide guidance to coalition members. Polygraph results are not admissible in court due to their potential for false positives and negatives.

BREAKING — I've confirmed the DOGE staffers at SSA. They are Marko Elez (who was previously fired for racist posts and then reinstated), Ethan Shaotran, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gautier Cole-Killian. This is per Social Security Works, a non-profit working to protect/expand Social Security.

Macron has just urged the French to join the military reserve. “We are entering a new era”. France will have to spend more on defence. “The threat that Russia represents imposes choices on us” (Live exchange on social media)

Sir Ben Wallace zu den „Fake News“ von Präsident Trump über Russlands Krieg in der Ukraine. So sollten endlich auch aktive Politiker anfangen mit und über Trump und die USA 2025 zu reden.
