@TheDataHubX @stats_feed How is "doctor visits" defined? Does the annual prophylactic checkup at the dentist count as a visit to a medical doctor? Is picking up a new prescription for orthopedic inlays a visit to a medic? The biannual skin cancer prevention checkup at the dermatologist?

@stats_feed Germany 2025: The full-year market share of pure BEVs was approximately 13.5%.

The 25% figure includes hybrids, which benefit from an odd tax break.

The young people in our @ObamaFoundation Leaders program give me hope. One of those leaders, Luisa Neubauer, is working to fight climate change and recently traveled to Antarctica.

This Earth Day, I hope you'll check out her incredible story.

@ojblanchard1 Theoretically, fewer imports should lead to less currency outflow. Ceteris paribus, you would expect the Dollar to appreciate versus the Euro. But Trump is messing up all kind of things.

@opinion @chrismbryant It is better to rebuild bridges than stadiums for commercial football.

Germany's indebted municipalities are subsidizing professional football to the tune if millions, while their infrastructure is crumbling.

Actually, in Anglosaxon Common law, a Letter of Intent is a binding declaration, which may even be used instead of a contract.

As so often, #oldenburg’s current Mayor #obkrogmann is off to an ill start.

[iitm @iitm]

With Oldenburg’s current Mayor’s term expiring in 2026, he urgently wants the City Councillors to agree to signing a “Letter of Intent” to twin with #desmoines, when they visit Lower Saxony in November.

@BoesenForMayor @SherillW @DMRegister @vbarreda2 @DesMoinesGov

[iitm @iitm]

Des Moines’ representatives should, that Mayor Krogmann used the English term Letter of Intent in the resolution he proposed. He defined a “letter of intent” for the local councillors as a non-binding agreement.

@Mihai_Guia @Gerashchenko_en Why would Russia align with the USA against China? It is only natural that Russia wants to keep North Korea, Mongolia, China, Iran and India as potential allies. Russia won't be swayed by Trump.

@DianeArseneaul3 @RpsAgainstTrump Why does Trump want another bureaucracy on top of the US Customs and Border Protection, which currently collects import duties? https://t.co/jEVuUuQUlj

"The richest 1% now has as much wealth as the rest of the world combined, according to Oxfam."

It's not immigrants stealing your wealth, but the people paying for the propaganda, to get people to believe this.
