"The old world is lost. We must prepare to fight monsters." is the subheading of an article in a Norwegian newspaper about US foreign policy. Really not mincing words there…

Half of dems are rooting for republican policies more than republicans are, because they want people to feel the consequences of their actions. The burn-it-down mood is strong.

So much looking forward to the campaign. "You can’t chicken out for shit" will be a sick burn in the debates.

I honestly feel fortunate when I take five minutes to check my taxes and hit submit. Fortunate that my government doesn’t intentionally sabotage me. That they make it easy to do the right thing. And checking my taxes is voluntary. Paying them isn’t.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

We have a new unit of time! One Thyberg is 12 hours. This supplements the existing Scaramucci, which is 11 days.

Absolutely loved the "companies donate to PACs all the time, is this really any different?" take on the TrumpCoin.

We might have a blind spot for blatant lies. We aren’t used to it, so we keep thinking there must be a kernel of truth. We expect the lies to be twisted facts, because that’s what we’re used to.

I’d be pretty happy being described only as "incoherent", "incomplete" and "out of my depth" if I had to defend the tariffs. These are features of the policy. Nobody can add coherence to them by just talking.

In a few weeks this appearance will be cited on @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social’s Focus Group podcast as proof that the administration is "doing something", and contrasted with Biden’s DoJ.

An aggressively unqualified Secretary of Defense is probably a good thing for Denmark though? Maybe we should be rooting for him.

From a Norwegian perspective, it is fascinating how many US issues my instinct is either "do your job, congress" (a common chant in the US as well), and "this problem is really a different problem" (like access to banking, valid ID, etc).

Three hours ago I listened to @markzandi.bsky.social and guests on Inside Economics, where one guest and Trump-expert insisted that he would not back down and this was all carefully calculated. Amazing timing.

How come nobody is making a tool to predict who is most likely to be killed? Like an actuarial table but for crime.

Some years ago the mother of one of my Brazilian students was visiting on the days I was talking about the Brazilian dictatorship — which lasted twenty years. I talked about torture and afterwards she said “I lived through that and didn’t know about any of that while it was happening”

And also, why the f*ck would he want to know that? Is it required for dismantling the government? On the list of things I’m glad I don’t know, this one is pretty high.

So many recent movies that wouldn’t have been the same if they had been made today, because Russians have revealed themselves as inhuman Orcs rather than people. Case in point, the start of Aquaman. Today, it would just have been righteously dead Russians on a submarine.

Three Europeans (2 young germans, 1 young British) have been detained with moot excuses in the US and are now imprisoned. The Trump regime is building up a ransom fund. You know where he learned that? That's right, Putin. Cancel all travels to the US. You put yourself, but also Europe, at risk.
