Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

The most important thing to understand about the recent history of Russian aggression against its neighbors, and especially against Ukraine, is that Putin is not a product of “Russia” or even of Russian nationalism.

Dozens of inauthentic X accounts are posting coordinated, AI-generated content critical of CDU leader Friedrich Merz ahead of the German election, but failing to get any traction. Notably, they all misspell his name "Mertz", and seem to be very keen for Germany to restore energy ties with Russia.
