"AND YOU STILL HAVE THE NERVE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH..."
Too sharp not to share.
This Australian's response to Trump's rant that "NATO doesn't exist for America" is perfect:
"Mate,
You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.
A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.
A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.
A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.
A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.
You imprison more of your own citizens than any other country on Earth.
More than China.
More than Russia.
More than North Korea.
In the land of the free, 2 million people are held in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything.
They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is falling. You're the only developed country where that's happening.
Your infant mortality rate is higher than Cuba's.
Your children practice active-shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell gun stocks to your friends.
Your minimum wage hasn't changed in 15 years...
You have teachers working two jobs, veterans sleeping under bridges, and you've just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.
And a convicted criminal, found liable in a rape case, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and leading the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban, thanks you for yet another failure.
And you're calling Greenland poorly governed?
Greenland has universal healthcare.
Free education.
One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody goes bankrupt because they got sick.
Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance company said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them.'
When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?
Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in its history for you.
Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan for you.
Australia wasn't even in NATO, and we still showed up.
For twenty years.
And then you left at two in the morning without telling anyone and left them to clean up the mess.
You don't care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend. You haven't shown it a shred of sympathy.
So maybe, before you start calling other countries poorly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum-siding salesman with a spray tan.
The only thing being poorly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.
And you still have the nerve to lecture everyone else?"
194,4 miliardi.
Leggetelo piano, questo numero. Provate a immaginare quanti sono. Centonovantaquattro virgola quattro miliardi di euro.
Quante cose pensate che ci si possa fare con una cifra del genere?
Potremmo avere la scuola migliore del mondo, le università più prestigiose del mondo, la sanità più efficiente che si sia mai vista. Una pubblica amministrazione che brilla per informatizzazione. Con una cifra del genere potremmo trovare lavoro alla gente, potremmo aumentare i salari, potremmo migliorare i contratti di lavoro. Potremmo avviare l’elettrificazione definitiva della flotta auto degli italiani, così come hanno fatto nei paesi nordici. Si poteva investire sul turismo, attrarre per anni capitali da flotte di turisti italiani e stranieri.
Invece, cosa ci abbiamo fatto con questa cifra gigantesca? Qualche rotonda? Qualche campetto da calcio? La gran parte dei progetti completati, lo dicono i dati ReGiS, è finita in acquisti di beni e servizi, bonus, contributi a privati. Le opere pubbliche vere, sotto il 5%. Sotto il 5%, capite? Cinque per cento. E intanto al 26 febbraio di quest’anno la spesa effettiva era 98 miliardi su 194. La metà. A due mesi dalla chiusura del Piano, il 30 giugno. Buona fortuna a chi pensa che si recuperi.
Questo governo è colpevole. È colpevole del più grande spreco di tutta la storia moderna del paese. Questo governo ha bruciato quasi duecento miliardi di euro per incapacità, per incompetenza, per ignoranza. E adesso pure per i trucchetti contabili, perché la CGIL ha scoperto che parte dell’aumento di spesa è solo un trasloco di scrivania, opere già pagate dallo Stato che si rietichettano PNRR per fare bella figura con Bruxelles.
Noi pagheremo per decenni questi quattro anni di incompetenza. Letteralmente. Di quei 194 miliardi, 122 sono prestiti. Solo nel 2026 paghiamo 2,8 miliardi di interessi, dal 2027 saliranno a 3,4 miliardi l’anno. Per vent’anni. I nostri figli salderanno il conto di una festa che non c’è stata.
L’Italia non è migliorata. L’Italia non ha fatto un salto avanti. Il PIL non si schioda dallo zero virgola, mentre la Spagna con trenta miliardi in meno di noi è cresciuta del 2,8%. Cinque volte tanto, con lo stesso identico piano europeo. Ma la signora Meloni si vanta perché il suo è il secondo governo più lungo della storia repubblicana. Brava. Complimenti.
E mentre i 194 miliardi le scivolavano fra le dita, sapete a cosa pensava lei? Ai centri per migranti in Albania. Seicentosettanta milioni stanziati, parola del ministro Piantedosi, per due strutture vuote, dichiarate illegittime tre volte dai tribunali, oggi al 46% di capacità. Centocinquemila euro al giorno per la polizia che ci lavora dentro, contro i cinquemila di un CPR italiano. E nel 2024 abbiamo registrato il numero più basso di rimpatri della nostra storia repubblicana. Una fortuna spesa per non rimpatriare nessuno. Ma per quel teatro lì decreti, ratifiche accelerate, viaggi a Tirana, conferenze stampa. Per i 194 miliardi del PNRR no, quelli sono noiosi, non danno voti.
Che sfiga che abbiamo avuto con la Meloni al governo proprio quando c’erano 194,4 miliardi da spendere.

"If you attack a sovereign country, then you are not leaving with more territories or more resources, but you are punished for this..
...The message that we have to say loud and clear is that aggression cannot pay off."
- Kaja Kallas
I think..it's clear enough..🤷♀️
Lo hanno osservato per ore vomitare, contorcersi per il dolore, impazzire e infine soffocare.
Gli esperti di Regno Unito, Germania, Francia, Svezia e Paesi Bassi, dopo aver esaminato campioni biologici dell’oppositore russo Alexei Navalny, morto in carcere il 16 febbraio di due anni fa, hanno dichiarato che sono state trovate tracce di epibatidina, una potente neurotossina, e che non esistono motivazioni innocenti per le quali quella sostanza poteva essere nel suo corpo, visto che viene estratta da una rana freccia del Sud America (che certo non passava per caso quel giorno in un gulag in Siberia) e che servono grandi competenze chimiche per maneggiarla.
Si tratta di una sostanza che sovrastimola i recettori nicotinici, amplificando in modo incontrollato i segnali nervosi e mandando in crisi muscoli e sistema nervoso. I sintomi all’inizio sono quelli di una forte nausea e di una sudorazione intensa, cui segue uno stato di confusione acuta ed agitazione neurologica. Poco dopo arrivano spasmi muscolari e convulsioni ed un rallentamento del battito cardiaco. A quel punto subentra una crescente difficoltà respiratoria fino alla totale paralisi dei muscoli respiratori, che inevitabilmente porta alla morte per soffocamento. Se somministrata nelle dosi giuste l’agonia è estremamente dolorosa, può durare diverse ore e, a differenza di quello che accadrebbe con potenti sedativi ed oppioidi, il soggetto avvelenato può restare cosciente e consapevole fino all’ultimo istante.
Mi scuso per i dettagli crudi, ma è bene che siano tutti consapevoli di quali metodi utilizzi Vladimir Putin con gli si oppone. Leggeteli ad alta voce ai tanti “pacifisti”, secondo i quali, “insomma, qualche concessione l’Ucraina la deve pur fare”, parlando di territori come se fossero distese vuote e disinteressandosi completamente della sorte dei milioni di donne, uomini e bambini che ci vivono.
Quello russo è un regime mafioso, malato e assassino, che ha scelto la strada della sopraffazione e dell’oppressione, che ha trasformato la morte in dottrina di Stato e la tortura in scienza. Il mito delle colpe dell’Occidente, davanti a queste evidenze, ha senso solo per gli imbecilli e i collaborazionisti.
La Russia perderà questa guerra e non c’è alternativa ad una condanna che la costringa a pagare per ogni singola malefatta. Di certo non potrà tenere un solo centimetro di terra non sua. Perché questo gigantesco paese, incapace di coesistere pacificamente col prossimo, nato da terre rubate in mille anni di guerre e che continua a volerne rubare, ancor più nel quarto di secolo di potere di Putin, ha sempre rispettato lo schema ineludibile secondo cui non esiste un solo criminale che, dopo essere stato premiato per i propri crimini, non senta il desiderio di compierne di peggiori.
Cari @NFratoianni, @AngeloBonelli1, @GiuseppeConteIT, oggi, in aula, prima di aprire bocca, date un’occhiata a questo video di pochi secondi e ricordatevi se che questo bimbo e la sua sorellina possono sopravvivere ad un allarme arreo e sognare una vita in un paese libero, anziché diventare sudditi di un regime fascista, lo devono anche agli aiuti che voi state facendo di tutto per interrompere.
Il vostro “pacifismo” a spese dell’aggredito è il miglior regalo che si possa fare a un aggressore e il miglior incentivo per nuove guerre e per chiunque sogni un nuovo mondo basato sulla legge del più forte.
Se poi lo sforzo che si richiede alle vostre menti è fuori portata, ve ne propongo uno più semplice. Domandatevi: un ucraino come vorrebbe che io votassi? E Putin come vorrebbe che io votassi? Persino per voi diventerà semplice capire quali interessi state diligentemente servendo.
"We forced Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and strategic bombers.
We promised to protect Ukraine from Russia.
We made Ukraine vulnerable.
So yes,this is our war."

The US has the most disgusting, deceitful, narcissistic, and corrupt president of all time:
"We never needed NATO," Trump declared.
"We never asked anything of them. You know, they say they sent troops to Afghanistan, and they did. But they stayed back a little, a little further away from the front line," the US scum explained.
As a reminder: According to official figures, 2,339 American soldiers died in the Afghan campaign. Soldiers from other NATO countries died 1,127. Among them were 44 Danish citizens.
“Europe is poor. Europoor! Low GDP. Broke continent.”
And honestly, it’s such a lazy argument that it almost answers itself.
First, let’s list the typical “Europe is poor” insults the way they actually show up.
MAGA, JD Vance and Trump say:
Europe is poor
Europe is broke
Europe has low GDP
Europe cannot afford anything without the US
Europe is falling behind
Europe is a declining continent
Now here’s the problem with that whole framing.
They are using national level money stats as if they automatically translate into human wellbeing. They do not.
GDP is not a quality of life scoreboard. GDP is an activity scoreboard.
It counts spending, not thriving.
It counts medical bills as “economic activity.”
It counts crime cleanup as “economic activity.”
It counts lawsuits, admin overhead, and debt servicing as “economic activity.”
So in a system where people pay insane amounts for healthcare, childcare, education, insurance, and legal friction, GDP can look fantastic precisely because people are paying through the nose to survive.
That’s not “rich.”
Meanwhile, Europe deliver more of what people actually want out of life: security, stability, and the ability to breathe without constant financial threat. Because a lot of essential things are cheaper at the point of use, and the social floor is higher.
Here’s the practical test I always use:
If a society is “richer,” why are normal people more anxious about getting sick, die, going to college, having a baby, or losing a job?
If the wealth is real for regular citizens, it should show up as reduced fear and increased stability.
And this is where the “Europe is poor” insult collapses.
Europe’s money is distributed in a way that buys normal life outcomes:
•Longer lives
•Lower infant mortality
•Lower homicide rates
•Far fewer people in prison
•Safer workplaces
•Less life wrecking education debt
You can scream “low GDP” all day, but you cannot argue with “people are living longer and safer lives.”
Also, that “Europe is poor” claim is usually based on cherry picking. Europe is a collection of wealthy advanced economies, many of which are among the richest in the world by any sane standard. The idea that Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the Nordics, etc. are “poor” is clown talk. It’s propaganda aimed at Americans who have never checked anything beyond a meme.
“They keep yelling ‘Europe is poor’ because GDP is the only metric where they feel safe. But GDP measures spending, not wellbeing. Europe turns money into longer lives, safer streets, less debt, and fewer people in cages. If that’s ‘poor,’ then their definition of ‘rich’ is just suffering.”
Europe converts its resources into human life better. That’s the whole game.

Farmers in Kansas are about to find out the hard way.
They voted for Donald Trump.
They cheered ICE crackdowns.
Now their carrot crops are rotting because the workers are gone.
You can’t deport the labour force and run labour-intensive agriculture.
So what’s the plan now higher food prices, or farms shutting down?
BREAKING: TACO! Trump chickens out on his Greenland madness, abandons his tariffs, and strikes a "deal" with Europe that accomplishes nothing and does NOT grant the United States ownership of the Arctic island.
Trump just destroyed our national reputation for nothing...
"It's a deal that everybody's very happy with," Trump told reporters.
"Does it still include the United States having ownership of Greenland like you've said you wanted?" a reporter asked.
"Uhhh..." replied Trump, pausing for a long moment in obvious embarrassment. "Eh. It's a looong term deal. It's the ultimate long term deal and I think it puts everybody in a really good position, especially as it pertains to security and minerals and everything else."
"How long will the deal be Mr. President?" pressed the reporter.
"Infinite. There is no time limit. It's forever. It's signed forever. It's a deal that's forever," said Trump, sounding exactly like an 8-year-old child playacting as a businessman.
While the details of this farcical deal have yet to be revealed, Trump made a big announcement on Truth Social in an attempt to paint his surrender as some kind of victory—
"Based upon a very productive meeting that I have had with the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region," he wrote. "This solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United States of America, and all NATO Nations. Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st.
"Additional discussions are being held concerning The Golden Dome as it pertains to Greenland," he continued. "Further information will be made available as discussions progress. Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and various others, as needed, will be responsible for the negotiations — They will report directly to me. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
The likeliest scenario here is that the U.S. and other NATO countries have agreed to place military assets in Greenland which, to be clear, we could already do before this so-called agreement! As he so often does, Trump created a problem just so he could pretend to solve it. He may have even thought for a while that he would "get" Greenland but Europe stood up to him and he balked.
So to summarize: Trump triggered an international crisis, pushed Europe closer to China, caused major pension funds to dump their Treasury bonds, undermined the stability of the global economy, and achieved exactly nothing in the process.
Please ❤️ and share if you think that Trump is a complete fool!
@joni_askola Putin is a ruthless, cunning terrorist. He even bombs Russians blaming others to herd them into voting for him. Trump and Farage are his creatures.
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton called it America’s war: he believes that the United States is obligated to defend Ukraine.
Clinton:
“We forced Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and strategic bombers. We promised to protect Ukraine from Russia. We made Ukraine vulnerable.
So yes, this is our war.”
Read this text from Volodymyr Kukharenko to understand the everyday life of Ukrainian people:
I have not been on vacation for four years. I have had no business trips to establish new connections. Currently, I live and work about 70% of the time without electricity. I had to buy batteries. On average, every two weeks I wake up in the middle of the night to explosions. My children have spent hundreds of days sleeping outside their own beds. Some of my friends have been killed; others are on the front line. Some members of my team joined the army, and one of them was wounded. I’ve seen hundreds of videos and photos of destroyed homes, murdered people, torture and executions, and children’s funerals. I may end up in trenches myself.
Do I want the war to end? Of course I do. Much more than you — believe me. So why don’t I support the “peace plan” Trump is pushing?
Because one does not have to be a genius to understand that this plan would bring only a short pause before a much bigger war. If no one but Ukraine uses force to stop Putin, why would he stop? He will come up with another excuse for why his army must move further. And if he knows that neither the U.S. nor the EU will intervene, what will stop him?
I often hear the argument: “I just want people to stop dying.” I want that too — far more than you —b ecause I am one of those people. But if Ukraine withdraws without a fight from the cities in Donbas that it has fortified for years, why do you think that will save lives? About 300,000 people live there. They will either have to flee or stay and undergo “filtration,” which means many will be tortured and executed. Men will be forcibly drafted into the Russian army. And then that army will march further, forcing Ukrainians to kill Ukrainians. Tell me — how does that save lives?
It also means the Russian army will gain the ability to bomb territories that are currently safe. The war will not end. Ukraine will simply lose its fortress cities without a fight. Those who “just want to go home to their families” and support this idea will eventually find themselves fighting again — this time in even worse conditions.
And who says that if they go home, they won’t be quietly taken in the middle of the night and simply disappear? That would be the most logical thing for Russia to do if it takes over. Genocide is the only way to break a nation’s spirit. In the 1990s, they killed 25% of the Chechen nation. They killed millions of Ukrainians before. They killed in Bucha and Izium in 2022, and in other occupied cities — you can find the photos if you want. Why do you think they won’t repeat it?
There is nothing that would protect us from this scenario. That is why there is absolutely no reason for me to support this plan. We need peace — not the horrors of occupation.
@JimBerg881888@YourAnonCentral Quindi la Cecenia (2), la Georgia e in Ucraina sono tutte perché l'Occidente brutto e cattivo voleva espandere la NATO a Est? Ripeta queste idiozie in un qualsiasi paese che confina con la Russia così lo prendono a calci in culo!
Ma non si sputa in faccia da solo allo specchio?
Ancora sui territori dell'Ucraina oggi pretesi dalla Russia: dopo il precedente video su come la Crimea fu ceduta da Mosca all'Ucraina, qui rispondo alla domanda: ma se non fosse passata all'Ucraina, oggi la Crimea sarebbe davvero «storicamente russa» come affermano al Cremlino?
The world knows this unforgettable melody and sings it in numerous languages. “Shchedryk” (Carol of the Bells), inspired by a Ukrainian folk carol, became a global symbol of Christmas.
It was composed by Ukrainian Mykola Leontovych, born on this day in 1877.
Leontovych was a teacher, composer, and choir conductor who dedicated his life to recording and revitalising Ukrainian folk songs.
His music carries a special kind of magic: no matter the language, the melody resonates with joy, hope, and the spirit of celebration.
Leontovych was tragically killed in 1921 by Soviet secret police for defending Ukrainian culture. But his legacy lives on, and "Shchedryk" continues to unite people around the world.
