Trump broke it, he can fix it
Trump broke it, he can fix it
Every single post he makes about the Iran war is dripping with "the dog ate my homework" vibes
Ebrahim Azizi, head of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Iranian parliament, claims that Ukraine's drone support for Israel makes "the entire territory of Ukraine a legitimate and lawful target for Iran" under Article 51 of the UN Charter.
Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton on US easing sanctions on Russia for lower oil prices:
I think they drank a lot of vodka in the Kremlin when they heard that news…Obviously, you want to do what you can to bring the price of oil down. Giving a gift to the Kremlin - wrong answer.
Kaja Kallas: The Trump administration wants to divide Europe with tactics used by the EU’s adversaries.
"What I think is actually important for everybody to understand is that the US has been very clear that they want to divide Europe.
This company must be excised from European soil.
I agree with European Movement UK calling for a reciprocated agreement. I presume they mean full freedom of movement, otherwise I cannot see why they would seek to give preferential status to musicians over any other profession which would benefit. It’s also not going to happen
“Elon Musk’s Tesla given go-ahead to supply electricity in Great Britain.” A subheading underneath says: “Ofgem licence means firm can replicate Texas setup of powering homes, businesses and EVs.”
Ed Miliband must step in and bar Tesla from holding an energy licence.
Elon Musk is a threat to our national security and clearly not a fit person to operate in our energy industry.
We can’t have the lights go out because he’s having a strop on X.
The finest take down of the institution of monarchy and "class" and the grasping, greedy, venal, entitled, and very stupid people it enables that you will read today or any day.

4 days ago, NPR reported that the Trump administration is still withholding, in violation of the Epstein files statutes, 37 pages of documents that implicate him in the rape of a child. This should end his presidency. www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...
Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off April’s state visit to the US.
A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.
Unfortunately Germany has exported much of its car manufacturing to Hungary, which might be partly to blame for the deafening silence
Zelenskyy has the cards
Zelenskyy: "We received a request from the United States for specific support in protection against "shaheds" in the Middle East region. I gave instructions to provide the necessary means and ensure the presence of Ukrainian specialists who can guarantee the required security."
"The woman who directly named Trump in her abuse allegation claimed that around 1983, when she was around 13 yrs old, Epstein introduced her to Trump who subsequently forced her head down to his exposed penis which she subsequently bit. In response, Trump punched her in the head and kicked her out."
They don't have such a right, they are part of the European grid, they have to deliver the sold electricity by anybody in the EU. They can decide not to sell electricity to Ukraine but can't chose not to deliver it.
How many more years is this idiocy going to continue?
Two collaborationist regimes in the center of Europe, during the largest continental war since WWII, are openly undermining the entire 500-million EU and the defense of the free world, all while getting off tens of billions of euros from it.
No international visitor is safe in Trump’s America. No one is safe.
You may be detained at any time, for any reason, or no reason at all. You may be held indefinitely, without charges.
Visitors may be denied entry and lose all $ spent for lodging, travel, etc.
FIFA, IOC, please note.
“Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks
Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. She says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone”
Kavanaugh argues "inevitable discovery" to excuse what Trump has been doing illegally.
I can see Trump now imposing tariffs "as authorized by one or more of the following laws", then listing all those that Kavanaugh cited, without specifying which law for any given tariff.
4The principal dissent surmises that the President could impose “most if not all” of the tariffs at issue under statutes other than IEEPA. Post, at 62 (opinion of KAVANAUGH, J.). The cited statutes contain various combinations of procedural prerequisites, required agency determinations, and limits on the duration, amount, and scope of the tariffs they authorize. See supra, at 8–9; post, at 62–63. We do not speculate on hypothetical cases not before us.
Trump's advisors appear not to have read the footnotes (this, from Roberts' majority opinion).

Time to cut all funding to Hungary. Suspend all trade too.
Trump Suffers Setback Unrelated To Child Rape
Trump Suffers Setback Unrelated To Child Rape
Trump's comments here, as at Davos and on many other occasions, raise questions about the extent to which he has the capacity to understand, let alone be actively involved in, his own administration's policy. And if he isn't setting the course for US foreign policy, who is?
Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”
Once again--Trump is weakening Ukrainian air defense to help Putin kill Ukrainian civilians and damage Ukrainian infrastructure.
How many times does this need to be said before people will get it.
President Zelenskyy:
Ukraine didn’t choose this war& it's wrong to assume that this is a permanent arrangement that others can stay safe behind Ukraine forever.Ukrainians are people,not terminators.
The greatest threat Russia presents right now is that it gains more at the negotiation table than it has achieved on the battlefield.
Russia’s maximalist demands cannot be met with a minimalist response.

spiegel.de: Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz Rubio betont Zusammenhalt von USA und Europa
Der Spiegel übernimmt hier Rubios Framing, als wäre die Behauptung von Zusammenhalt schon der Zusammenhalt selbst. Eine Überschrift, die genauso gut aus einer Pressemitteilung des State Department stammen könnte. 🧵
“He knows those computers better than anybody, all those vote counting computers, and we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide, so it was pretty good, so thank you to Elon!”

This is a big loss. An EBV vaccine especially might well help reduce multiple sclerosis (although it'll take time to tell). But seeing friends & their families whose lives have been impacted over decades MS, it's hard not to feel anger at this Luddism from the Trump administration and its lackeys.
