Sanchez is correct in refusing to allow the US to use joint military bases to carry out their war crimes against the people of Iran. He demonstrates real spine here, and models leadership to the rest of Europe.
Good news: Scientists were wrong about how bad sea level rise is.
Bad news: It’s even worse than we thought.
"The Greens are now the most popular party in all age categories under 50. Some 49% of 18-24 year olds would back the Greens, as well as 27% of 25 to 49-year-olds - the top choice." (Yougov-Poll)
After US strikes took out multiple layers of the Iranian regime ...
... I can't stop thinking about Hegseth's move last year of bringing the entire military brass together at one location.

Brilliant way to 'pay it forward'. 😅

'Pompeii' is Gaza ... 😓
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

The incoherent ramblings of tyrants have long echoed through the halls of the U.N., but this neverending brain dump of factless junk is unrivaled.
How anyone can giggle at this train wreck is beyond me.
Walk out, for crying out loud. We’re so utterly f’ed.
These are the times I miss Christopher Hitchens the most.
He'd cut through all the bs and noise that's being generated with I'll intent eloquently and without hesition.
Randomly thinking about this news from a couple months ago.

Kristi Noem komt naar de Antwerpse haven. De Wever en Van Doesburg ontvangen haar hoogstpersoonlijk.
Hopelijk zijn de ordediensten op de hoogte en krijgen de viervoeters van het korps een dagje vrij.
Deze passage in @demorgen.be zegt alles over de krampachtige wanhoop waarmee Eeckhout zijn cynisch narratief probeert te zetten.
Er zijn gvd bomen gekapt op 50 meter van Almaci's voordeur.
En Vanden Berghe is fractieleider in de Antwerpse gemeenteraad.
Gimme a f'ing break.
International Court of Justice ruling: „countries have a legal obligation to limit the emissions of planet-heating greenhouse gases and provide restitution if their specific actions caused harm.“

Justice Sonia Sotomayor on Thursday night urged the legal profession to toughen up. "If you’re not used to fighting, and losing battles, then don’t become a lawyer," she said. Her remarks came against the backdrop of immense stress on lawyers from the Trump administration.

No exaggeration, deep sea mining could cause the massive collapse of the entire deep sea ecosystem and food chain.
This is an existential risk to every person on this planet.

His weird relationship to the word 'Groceries' already told you Trump basically lost touch with normal society decades ago.
His description of the reaction to a economic meltdown as 'yippie' tells you when.
Early 70's ...
So Trump is basically forcing the world to chose between a stable autocratic economic super power or the unstable version of it a.k.a. the U.S.
Tough call, Mr. stable genius.
I'm not sure that's the takeaway here, Mr. Rennison. 🤦♂️

My heart goes out to all those CEO's who moved their entire supply chain to the U.S. last night.
Do not obey in advance.
Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

1) Do something autocratic
2) Wait to see how people react
3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on
4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it
5) Illegally consolidate more power
6) Repeat
