I am excited to share our recently published work, "FADD is recruited to activated STING oligomers to initiate caspase-mediated NF-κB activation in Drosophila melanogaster" #innate@V_hornung https://t.co/qTiIa2I0CQ
Someone send this to JD Vance before he goes on another rant about 'mismanaged' European allies. Alexander Stubb just reminded the world that the Nordics own the Top 10 lists for justice, clean government free from corruption and equality.
While Trump and JD Vance are busy obsessing over 'dominance' and crude GDP, the Finnish President is over here dropping facts. Turns out, when you actually invest in your people instead of just billionaire tax cuts, you end up the happiest people on earth. Stubb is 'bloody happy' because his country actually works for everyone.
Alexander Stubb: “You're asking a question from the second happiest country in the world and the happiest country in the world, you know.”
Moderator: “Who better to answer this?”
Alexander Stubb: “And the third? No?”
Moderator: “Oh, they're very happy.”
Alexander Stubb: “Yeah, yeah. No, I sometimes, you know, sometimes when I hear the discourse, especially of economists who are looking at crude GDP as the save-all measurement, I think us coming from Nordic countries, we value welfare societies which are a combination of open market economies and clear safety nets.
And if I look at our Gini coefficient, if I look at all the measures of international data—which five countries are in top ten, whether it's justice, whether it's least corrupt, whether it's open, whether it's welfare, whether it's environment, whether it's open media, gender equality—they are the Nordics. So I don't buy the argument that we're doing bad. I'm actually bloody happy.”

Excellent from Alexander Stubb, President of Finland,
"What has Russia achieved in the past 4 years?"
"Taken 20% of Ukraine"
"1 million casualties and dead"
"Decreased it's sphere of influence"
"Russian economy, 30% inflation, 16% interest rates, 0% growth, no more reserves, incapacity to pay soldiers when the war ends"
"I'm more worried about Russia's unwillingness to end this war because they cannot afford to keep going"
"Than about Russia's capability to win this war"
"Let's keep things in perspective"
"This war has been a strategic failure of Putin"
"He increased the size of NATO"
"He made Ukraine European"
"He increased the defence budgets of European states"
"Are we able to defend ourselves? Yes we are"
BREAKING: Jerome Powell issues a DEFIANT message to Trump after his DOJ criminally indicted him. Powell rightly says that this is a politically motivated indictment because he refused to bend the knee to Trump. Retweet to stand with Chairman Powell!
Amy Klobuchar: “What’s the difference between Greenland and Donald Trump? Greenland isn’t for sale.”
She added, “And to any Trump ally who wants to throw eggs at me over that joke—you can’t. Eggs are too expensive.”
Good and important analysis refuting claims by Dr. Christine Stabell Benn and Dr. Peter Aaby regarding unspecific vaccine events.

Dear Friends, we are recruiting a new faculty member in proteomic, Aarhus offers great living conditions and a very attractive funding landscape with several major private foundations in additional to the normal government and EU funding schemes. https://t.co/5FCB4NvchS
@The_Lookout_N There is nothing Europe can provide that changes the dynamic on the ground in Ukraine. The stalemate will persist, neither side has the ability to maneuver on a meaningful scale.
@ColbyBadhwar It likely that the Grünen, CDU and SPD already has agreed upon increased defense spending but do not what to announce as this can fuel both left and right wing party campaigns.
Government is good at long term investment in discovery research. Private sector demands for immediate returns on investment often stifle creativity. Want proof? Check the history of virtually all medicines..the first studies (years long) were done with government funding.
