Heute wird's spannend: ob es für die GroKo reicht, oder ob dann doch Kenia kommen muss; mit einem ganz blöde aus der Wäsche guckenden Markus Söder am rechten Bildrand!

Europe, this appendix at the western end of Asia, this geographical atavism that is only significant for historical reasons, is just a pond full of small fish, ready to be swallowed by Putin.

To deceive the world public, they put on the old show of geopolitical squabbles and diplomatic protest notes, but behind closed doors they have long since negotiated everything.

It is unbelievable what is happening right now, and we can only watch in bewilderment: a small clique of autocrats is dividing the world among themselves. Trump, Putin, Xi Jinping, etc., are all cut from the same cloth and get along very well, as they share their hatred of democracy.

Europa, dieser Wurmfortsatz am Westende Asiens, dieser nur aus historischen Gründen noch bedeutende geografische Atavismus, ist für Putin nur ein Tümpel mit lauter kleinen Fischen.

Zur Täuschung der Weltöffentlichkeit geben sie das alte Theaterstück von geopolitischen Streitereien und diplomatischen Protestnoten, aber hinter verschlossenen Türen haben sie alles längst ausgehandelt.

Es ist unglaublich, was gerade passiert, und wir können nur fassungslos zusehen: eine kleine Clique von Autokraten teilt die Welt unter sich auf. Trump, Putin, Xi Jinping etc., die sind alle aus demselben Holz geschnitzt und verstehen sich bestens, teilen sie doch ihren Hass auf die Demokratie.

Trump is either evil, a stooge of Putin or the most ignorant man ever to hold office. Actually all 3!

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

The tragic is, if we now say about him, after his essentially blaming Selensky for the Russian invasion, 'oh boy what an abject asshole', it's not even worth saying. We knew. Everybody knew. Not even worth news coverage that POTUS is an abject asshole. It's nothing but the new normal.

The “unhumans,” Jack Posobiec argued alongside co-author Joshua Lisec, were behind the Black Lives Matter movement, in charge of academia, and in control of corporations, the media, and even churches. So, of course, Trump and his cabinet members have decided to cozy up with Posobiec.

imagine what a weak quisling Rubio is that he cannot even explain to Trump that Russia started the war. Think about that. Utterly spineless.

Defend Europe. Defend the Green Deal. The world is burning, but the polluters’ lobby has been trying to dismantle the most significant advances in climate protection, circular economy & biodiversity since the EU was founded. Join our emergency webinar on Wednesday: eu01web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

contrarian.substack.com/p/some-presi... Washington was the antithesis of the current Oval Office occupant. His restraint in the exercising of power, his reputation for honesty, his abhorrence of partisanship, and his insistence on the peaceful transfer of power make him the model president.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

This is just insane and you all know that, right? Unelected, unfettered, untouchable, unsupported by facts and completely without transparency: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

Just published my first novel, interweaving two timely topics: the multiple crisis we are heading into, and the art of successful encounter, featuring BDSM. Only in German so far...

I can't comprehend that there is no water in the fire hydrants. There is no water at all. There has been no bush management, evacuation plans were inadequate and firefighters did not have water to put out the blaze. These people must have felt helpless. Please pray for these people, this is shocking

Is this a shooting star?

SCOOP: A US Treasury threat intelligence analysis has designated DOGE staff an ‘insider threat'. An internal email reviewed by WIRED calls DOGE staff's access to federal payments systems “the single biggest insider threat risk the Bureau of the Fiscal Service has ever faced.”

NEW: Over 100 Jewish organizations just released a statement ringing the alarm bell over the Trump admin’s attacks on democratic norms & values. We know where this leads, for Jews & others. I’m proud @thejcpa.bsky.social brought together this broad coalition. jewishpublicaffairs.org/news/major-j...
