Looking at Donald Trump pushing the world economy into the abyss and incoherently conducting a senseless war, it is impossible not to think of the well known Shakespeare quotation : “It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing”. Macbeth.

Theres a very long list of US products that cannot be sold in the EU thanks to EU regulations. Since the favorite pastime of the Trump regime and every US oligarch is now to demonize EU regulations, I thought it would be very much worth going through some of those products.🧵

[Radu Hossu 🇹🇩🇺🇦 @RaduHossu]

I want a United States of Europe!

Europe is our home and our only chance to live in a society governed by liberal values and principles, which have been the foundation of Western civilization. Europe is home to the 5 million Romanians who left their country in search of a better life. Europe is where we go on vacation. Europe is the cradle of democracy. Europe is our family.

Yes, America saved us at least twice in the last hundred-odd years. And I, as a simple citizen of Romania, part of Europe, will forever be grateful to the memory of the hegemon that gave me the opportunity to dream of a perpetually better life when I was a child. But today, those who make decisions on behalf of America no longer have anything in common with the American dream (my dream), with the values promoted by America, or even with their anthem, "land of the brave, home of the free."

Today, right now, those who lead America have turned their guns on our home, Europe, extending a huge helping hand to our greatest enemy, Russia. The morally decaying hegemon, convinced by the spells of the criminal from the East, is ready to tear down our home.

They want to convince the confused and those bent on betrayal that a "Europe of nations" is what we need. No! A Europe of nations means a fragmented Europe, devoid of political and economic bargaining power. It means a fragmented Europe. It means the end of the last structure that imperfectly and bureaucratically, clumsily and awkwardly protects people first and then profits. I don't want that.

Europe is the one that wants to regulate AI. The one that wants to regulate social media. The one that fines American giants for violating our rights. It is Europe that puts a stop to harmful food imports from America, has a much lower crime rate than America and a much higher standard of living. It is Europe that cannot understand how there can be no free education or free healthcare. Yes, it is not perfect, and that should come as no surprise to anyone, because rivers of blood have flowed here for thousands of years. For pride, for territory, for wealth, for political games, for the dreams of psychopaths. But there has been peace since the European Union was created.

The European Union has been the most important guarantor of human progress in our home. Now is the time for European leaders, including those in Romania, to correctly analyze the signals of struggle against us and to act quickly towards an even stronger Union. Towards the United States of Europe!

Europeans lull themselves into the belief that Trump is unpredictable. This is strangly reassuring, but wrong. The #NSS is only the latest confirmation that Europe is, at best, alone. My piece @ForeignPolicy

Sehr klare Analyse von @ulfposh: Die „Kanzlermehrheit“ zur Rentenabstimmung ist kein Sieg – sondern das sichtbar gewordene Scheitern eines bürgerlichen Lagers, das sich selbst ausgehöhlt hat.

➡ Die Union zwingt ihre junge Generation in die Knie, um eine Anti-Reform mit Links durchzubringen – und Ramelow applaudiert. Das sagt alles.

➡ Deutschland reduziert Zukunft auf eine Haltelinie: Bürokratie statt Aufbruch, Stillstand statt Verantwortung. Ein Land, das im Modus des Selbstruins verharrt.

➡ Gleichzeitig steigt die Abgabenquote auf 41,5 %. Nettosteuerzahler tragen einen Staat, der vor allem sich selbst ernährt – während die Talentierten gehen.

➡ Die Union flüchtet vor jeder Zumutung: keine klare Kante, kein Mut, kein Machtinstinkt. Sie opfert ihre klügsten jungen Köpfe, um den Sozialkitsch der SPD zu stabilisieren.

➡ Friedrich Merz, einst Hoffnungsträger, wirkt wie der Karikaturist seiner eigenen Versprechen: kein „links vorbei“, kein Reformherbst – stattdessen Bereitschaft, sogar sozialistische Kapitalertrags-Sozialabgaben mitzudenken.

➡ Politik und Medien schaffen Schreckgespenster: Wer diese Rente kritisiert, riskiere angeblich Faschismus und Putins Sieg. Deutschland regiert aus Angst, nicht aus Freiheit.

➡ Die bürgerliche Mitte ist heimatlos. Ein paar Inseln der Vernunft – Winkel, Volkmann – zeigen, was möglich wäre. Der Rest der Union wirkt wie eine Organisation, die ihre eigene Bedeutung nicht mehr begreift.

➡ Dieser „Sieg“ markiert den Moment, in dem eine Partei zeigt, dass sie den Ernst der Lage nicht mehr erkennt – und damit auch die Zukunft verspielt.

☑️ Der Pyrrhussieg bei der Rente zeigt brutal: Eine Union ohne Mut, Konfliktbereitschaft und Führungskraft hat den Titel „bürgerliche Partei“ längst abgelegt.

GeoConfirmed UKR - Misinformation by President Trump.

While we typically refrain from political commentary, President Donald Trump's recent statement regarding the war in Ukraine is so egregious that we feel compelled to respond.

Several claims made by President Trump have already been debunked. We've included responses from Grok AI for each claim, demonstrating that even Grok refutes the misinformation spread by the president.

In this thread, we will provide geolocated footage as a reminder to everyone that Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, marking the beginning of this war.

1)

The United States has not spent $350 billion on this war, nor has it outspent Europe by $200 billion. In fact, European contributions have surpassed those of the US. Moreover, a significant portion of the American military aid (around 90% !) is spend in the US, reinvesting in the US economy.

President Zelensky did not claim that half the American money sent to Ukraine is "missing". He stated that half of the promised funds had not been received, which is a crucial distinction.

Ukrainian constitution prohibits elections during wartime, a measure designed to protect the democratic process from foreign interference, particularly given Russia's known capabilities in this area...

President Zelensky is not a dictator, as evidenced by Ukraine's constitutional framework and his commitment to holding elections once hostilities cease. In contrast, it's worth noting that President Putin consistently wins elections in Russia with implausibly high percentages of votes, with opposition that 'falls out of windows", is poisened or jailed, raising questions about the true nature of Russia's electoral process.

6)

There was no NATO expansion to the East, as NATO itself cannot expand. Instead, democratic countries independently decide whether they want to become members of the alliance. The process of joining NATO is voluntary and involves multiple steps, including meeting specific requirements and completing a formal application process.

The fact that many of Russia's former neighbors have chosen to seek NATO membership speaks volumes about their perception of Russia and their desire for collective security.

The decision of these nations to pursue NATO membership reflects their sovereign right to determine their own foreign policy and security arrangements. It also indicates a preference for the stability and security guarantees that NATO membership offers, rather than remaining under Russian influence.

Regarding the famous 'promise':
Article 103 of the UN Charter establishes a clear hierarchy in international law. It states that obligations under the UN Charter prevail over obligations under any other international agreement in case of conflict. This supremacy extends beyond just treaties, as it is generally understood to also apply to customary international law.
The hierarchy can be summarized as follows:

1) UN Charter obligations
2) Other treaties and customary international law
3) Non-treaty international texts
4) Political promises or commitments
5) Historical claims

Russia's invasion of Ukraine clearly violates fundamental principles of the UN Charter, including the prohibition on the use of force against the territorial integrity of another state. Any attempts to justify this action based on lower-ranking considerations like political promises or historical claims are legally irrelevant.

Who initiated this nearly three-year-long war? RUSSIA.

As a platform that has analyzed over 50,000 frames/videos related to the conflict, we will remind the president ,with geolocated footage, who started this war: RUSSIA.

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, despite repeatedly denying any plans for invasion in the preceding days.

Europe needs to move away from buying American weapons & focus on creating our own.

Europe needs to invest in European AI and social media and stop feeding American tech companies people's data.

Europe needs to stop buying American products & services, and prioritize European.

COLUMN: Consign coal to history? Forget it.

China pushed global coal demand to a record high in 2024, @IEA said in its coal flagship report.

The IEA has now ditched its "peak coal" theory and sees higher demand in 2025, 2026 and 2027.
