It is fascinating that as Trump threatens and insults US allies to try and get them to get him out of this ridiculous strategic bind, he does not have the courage to even ask Putin politely to stop helping Iran kill American soldiers.

Interesting that.

Well Done Spain 🇪🇸.

A ROOF TILE THAT’S GIVING LITTLE OWLS THEIR HOMES BACK

In rural Spain, a clever design is helping thousands of nocturnal birds reclaim what modern construction quietly took away.

The Little Owl once nested in old stone walls and traditional farmhouses. But as rural architecture modernized, those natural cavities disappeared — leaving these small hunters without shelter.

So conservationists from the Grup de Naturalistes d’Osona and Grup de Natura Sterna designed something brilliant.

They created the Teula Mussolera — a modified clay roof tile that doubles as a high-tech birdhouse.

Here’s why it works:

It looks exactly like traditional Spanish roofing — preserving the beauty of rural homes.

Its internal tunnel is predator-proof and thermally stable, protecting chicks from heat and hunters.

It allows owls to live alongside humans as villages expand.

And here’s the smartest part…

This isn’t charity. It’s partnership.

The Little Owl is an elite natural pest controller — hunting thousands of insects and rodents every year. Farmers who install these tiles aren’t just helping wildlife… they’re recruiting a silent, feathered security team that reduces the need for chemical pesticides.

Sometimes conservation isn’t about separating humans and nature. It’s about designing a way to thrive together.

In the coming days, Fidesz, with the help of Russian intelligence services, will launch a smear and disinformation campaign previously tested in Moldova, primarily on social media, especially on TikTok.

According to the information we have received, they will launch the operation on Thursday. There are already 14 AI-generated smear videos prepared about a TISZA parliament candidate and their family members. The videos will be promoted through fake accounts for tens of millions of forints.

I call on @PM_ViktorOrban to immediately halt the planned election fraud and order Russian agents out of Hungary.
I also want to make it clear that after April 12, everyone who participated in these criminal acts will be held accountable before the courts.

🧵 🚨 BREAKING: Zelensky said in an interview that Ukraine can manufacture air defense missiles for the PATRIOT systems domestically in Ukraine, but need the US to license the production.
Ukraine will then be able to also supply allies in Europe & Middle East who are short.

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

Do not be fooled. If Trump lifts more sanctions on Russia, they are never coming back.

This is likely the excuse he has been waiting for all along to help Putin.

He always sides with Russia.

He is a real traitor to the US

[Michael MacKay @mhmck]

Some people describe Steve Witkoff as being naive to say "we can take them at their word" when the Russians deny sharing intelligence with the Iranians.

Witkoff isn't naive. He knows very well Russia and Iran are allies. Steve Witkoff is a Russian agent and a traitor to the USA.

Ukraine's cards are:
-> a combat-hardened military with experience in modern warfare,
-> battle-tested and constantly upgraded technology,
-> a resilient society that has just survived the hardest winter of this war.

That's more cards than most countries around the world have.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

To be clear: Hungary, an EU member state, has publicly admitted to seizing a Ukrainian bank convoy for the express purpose of blackmailing Ukraine.

And the EU is just... silent. Imagine the outcry if the roles were reversed?!

[Olena Halushka @OlenaHalushka]

Oslo mayor Anne Lindboe was driving in the convoy, traveling thousands of km along with 40 Norwegian volunteers of @uafreeconvoys to deliver in person life-saving vehicles to the Ukrainian defenders.

This is outstanding. Norwegians are so amazing 🇳🇴🇺🇦

[Olena Tregub @OTregub]

Something uncomfortable is happening in Hungary – and too few people are talking about it.

The recent detention of Ukrainian bank employees carrying cash through Hungary was not a law enforcement operation and but an FSB style operation: heavily armed officers, disproportionate force, and reportedly even interrogations conducted in Russian. Inside the EU and NATO!

I say this as someone who lived in Hungary. Hungarians used to be extremely sensitive about Russia. They remember 1956, when Soviet troops drowned their revolution in blood. Even hearing Russian spoken in public spaces could make people uncomfortable.

Which is why it feels surreal to watch parts of the society completely forgot this history lesson and support a Russian agent in power.

With elections coming and Péter Magyar polling well ahead of Orbán, there are already warnings about Russian “political technologies” being deployed. Ukrainians know these methods well.

The EU should watch these elections very closely. Letting Russia steal it would be a huge blow.

[Igor Sushko @igorsushko]

🚨 Hungary, EU & NATO member, robbed Ukraine of millions in state funds mid-transit and took 7 Ukrainian state-bank employees hostage, torturing some, holding them in handcuffs for 24 hours. One hostage lost consciousness because the Hungarian fascists withheld his medication.

After the phone call where Trump praised Putin as "helpful," russians attacked the city of Slov'yans'k in Ukraine with three guided aerial bombs.

At least four civilians were killed and 20 injured.

Russia is a terrorist state. Trump is Putin's servant.

‘Dnipropetrovsk oblast fully liberated as of today’

Can we focus on Ukraine a little more please?

Against all the odds & Donald Trump Ukrainians are doggedly winning this war, inch by bloody inch!

Ukraine matters more to us in Europe than Iran; let’s get our priorities right.

[SriSathya @sathyashrii]

World needs to listen to Colombia..

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

Europe must stop letting the Middle East distract from the real existential threat.

Our main focus has to be on helping Ukraine completely defeat Russia.

We cannot secure the world if we let Putin win in our own backyard.

Arm Ukraine now!

For decades, dependence on fossil fuels meant dependence on volatility. In past oil shocks, countries had little choice but to absorb the pain. 

Now they have an exit ramp: Homegrown renewable energy has never been cheaper, more accessible, or more scalable.

The resources of the clean energy era cannot be blockaded or weaponized. There are no price spikes for sunlight & no embargoes on the wind.

The fastest path to energy security, economic & national security is clear:

Speed up a just transition away from fossil fuels & toward renewable energy.
