There is far more outrage from tech leaders over a wealth tax than masked ICE agents terrorizing communities and executing civilians in the streets.

Perfect couple. Let us know when you find some polar bears. 😁

Der Bestrafraum: @ransport auf Sat.1 bei #PSGBAY.

Unterirdisches Dauer-Gelaber der Kommentatoren. Ständig Werbung, auch mitten im Spiel. Einfach 💩

[Karsten Lemm @lemmk]

#ELVFCH Bitter für Elversberg – aber ⚽️ auf Sat.1 ist eh eine Strafe.

Der Mann am Mikro klingt wie eine verrauchte, versiffte Eckkneipe, aus der permanent dümmliche Kommentare herauströpfeln. 🐺 🦶 🙄

When you’re completely clueless but feel like throwing hand granade into the fire anyway. 🙄

For the record: The AfD has never been centrist.

It defines itself as an “alternative” to traditional parties – and turned from anti-EU to neo-nazi.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Banning the centrist AfD, Germany’s, most popular party, would be an extreme attack on democracy

Kein hochrangiger Manager sollte mit einer #KI plaudern.

Audio-Daten -> voice prints.
Diverse Anfragen -> Persönlichkeits-Profil

Und natürlich die Gefahr, dass vertrauliche Infos in falsche Hände gelangen.

„Hallo Perplexity #KI, landen eigentlich alle meine Fragen und persönlichen Daten bei Euch in der Cloud?“

„Ja.“

„Oh“ 😮

Sollte man dem Chef von @dm_drogerie vielleicht mal klarmachen? 🤔

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

Zelensky’s meeting with Trump-Vance in a nutshell.

[Marietje Schaake @MarietjeSchaake]

If only Republicans had a fraction of Zelensky’s courage. The US President meanwhile has removed any doubt that he is making the US an adversary to Europe. European leaders must urgently treat the crisis as such. We need war economies in Europe

The Toddler in Chief is back, heckling a war victim in the White House.

What a disgrace.

@JeffBezos How it started: "I promise to never interfere with the editorial decisions of the Washington Post.“

How it’s going: "If you don’t like my editorial decisions l then it’s time for you to go."

“Democracy Dies in the Darkness of Trump’s Shadow”

[Jeff Bezos @JeffBezos]

I shared this note with the Washington Post team this morning:

I’m writing to let you know about a change coming to our opinion pages.

We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets. We’ll cover other topics too of course, but viewpoints opposing those pillars will be left to be published by others.

There was a time when a newspaper, especially one that was a local monopoly, might have seen it as a service to bring to the reader’s doorstep every morning a broad-based opinion section that sought to cover all views. Today, the internet does that job.

I am of America and for America, and proud to be so. Our country did not get here by being typical. And a big part of America’s success has been freedom in the economic realm and everywhere else. Freedom is ethical — it minimizes coercion — and practical — it drives creativity, invention, and prosperity.

I offered David Shipley, whom I greatly admire, the opportunity to lead this new chapter. I suggested to him that if the answer wasn’t “hell yes,” then it had to be “no.” After careful consideration, David decided to step away. This is a significant shift, it won’t be easy, and it will require 100% commitment — I respect his decision. We’ll be searching for a new Opinion Editor to own this new direction.

I’m confident that free markets and personal liberties are right for America. I also believe these viewpoints are underserved in the current market of ideas and news opinion. I’m excited for us together to fill that void.

Jeff

Sehr lesenswerte #Analyse von @akreye in der @SZ.

Von der libertären Ideologie bis zu Musks Plänen, aus X eine Bezahlplattform zu machen: alles drin. 👏

I have truly lost all respect for this deeply hypocritical human being.
