finally a us president with the courage to increase the gas tax, which hasn’t been adjusted for inflation since 1993.
not the president you would expect a green new deal from but there you have it.
Putins Sprecher Peskow nennt den Krieg in der #Ukraine jetzt zum ersten Mal "Krieg". Die Soft-Floskel "Militärische Spezialoperation" ist out. Das heißt: Putin bereitet die Russen auf Mobilmachung vor. Er eskaliert. Wir sollten nicht zu früh auf Verhandlungslösung hoffen.⬇️Quelle
When our deep strikes were not reaching Moscow and St. Petersburg, Putin did not think much about it. He understood that the war was far from the Kremlin. Of course, once he feels what is happening in Moscow, he will begin to understand what is happening in the Kursk, Belgorod, and Bryansk regions. He’ll begin to grasp the reality of the situation.
When not one hundred drones but a thousand start reaching Moscow, and when he feels it and sees it, he will be advised to move somewhere beyond the Urals. That will be a moment that opens a new chapter on the path toward ending the war. The farther Putin is from Moscow, the closer the end of the war and peace will be.
He fears for his life. And then there are the elites. Where do the Russian elites live? Moscow and St. Petersburg – the two major cities. Those places will be reached, because that is where they make the decisions to kill us.
That is why deep strikes have had, and continue to have, a major impact. We must keep working on this. It is constant, difficult, and daily work. We must all stay focused and energized. The heroes are those on the front line. And all of us, the entire state, must keep carrying shells to them. If we do, we will bring a just and strong peace for Ukraine. That is what victory means for us.

Open Letter
To the President of the Russian Federation
From the President of Ukraine
When you came to power in Russia more than 26 years ago, many people in Ukraine viewed you positively. That is how it was. But that is now in the past.
Now, the overwhelming majority of Ukrainians view it positively that our long-range drones paid a visit to the opening of your forum in St. Petersburg, covering a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers. As you know very well, that distance is not the limit of our capabilities.
Similar to Putin's war against Ukraine accelerating the clean energy transition. Make fossil fuels significantly more untenable, get countries to (quickly) pivot to other sources of energy, and in Putin's case, bring upon your own (energy) demise.
Völlig klar, dass der Kreml mit dem Schröder-Vorschlag erst die SPD und somit dann die Bundesregierung spalten will. Akzeleration des Regierungsverfall würde natürlich v.a. die AfD stärken. Stegner, Mützenich, Miersch und die restliche Russland-Connection sind natürlich dafür

FT Exclusive: Traders made bets worth half a billion dollars in the oil market about 15 minutes before Donald Trump’s post touting 'productive' talks with Iran sent the price of crude tumbling https://t.co/KVa0cZRLn0
The message of Trump’s letter to the prime minister of Norway signals that the president “genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him,” @anneapplebaum argues. https://t.co/hNLMZ7JYQ9
In just 4 years, he's lost all influence in Syria and Venezuela, with Iran to follow. Had over a million Russians killed or wounded in idiotic assaults that achieved nothing and brought the economy on the brink of implosion.
He's no cunning strategist, he's just a murderer.
president trump is not joking about greenland (as he was with the canada 51st state commentary).
lots of people in the administration working on what a “deal” for greenland would look like.
the europeans need to take this very seriously.
Trump is compromised and because Republican Senators and Members of Congress go along with what he wants, they are compromised.
The Republican Party is acting as a functional asset of the Russian Federation.
