Сенатор-демократ Джон Оссофф:
І поки навколо нас увесь світ палає, у Вашингтоні та Мар-а-Лаго розгортається небачене в історії Америки видовище корупції
Можливо, ви бачили, як Трамп у розпачі благає путіна про дизель
Але послухайте: у той самий час Білий дім домовляється про продаж російських енергоактивів на мільярди доларів людям, які фінансують родину Трампа та його передвиборчу кампанію
Ідеться про нафтові родовища, НПЗ та АЗС по всьому світу, які мають продати поплічникам першої родини за посередництва та підтримки уряду США
Пам'ятаєте Джареда Кушнера, зятя президента, так званого спецпредставника з питань дипломатії з росією та Близьким Сходом?
А пам'ятаєте іншого спецпредставника – Стіва Віткоффа, співзасновника каламутного криптобізнесу президента World Liberty?
Так от, стежте за думкою: Джаред і Стів саме зараз ведуть переговори з путіним щодо продажу російських нафтових родовищ, заводів та мереж заправок на мільярди доларів близьким друзям президента
До цієї справи також долучився шейх Тахнун, очільник еміратської розвідки, який вклав пів мільярда доларів у криптобізнес Трампа та Віткоффа
А ще брати Аль-Хаят – двоє сирійців, які фінансують багатомільярдний проєкт курорту Джареда та Іванки в Албанії
Третій партнер – це мільярдер і великий мегадонор Дональда Трампа. До речі, уряд Сполучених Штатів забере собі 15 відсотків
Загальна картина вже вимальовується?
У розпал глобальної енергетичної кризи зять президента та його бізнес-партнер організовують продаж російських нафтових родовищ друзям першої родини. Тим самим друзям, які вгатили сотні мільйонів доларів у бізнес родини Трампа
А ще є Марко Рубіо, який виділяє 1,6 мільярда ваших грошей на підтримку гірничодобувних інтересів синів Трампа в Казахстані. Чули про таке?
Піт Геґсет спрямовує сотні мільйонів доларів Пентагону на підтримку інвестицій Дона-молодшого в магніти
Венесуельські нафтодолари спливають на рахунках у катарських банках. Бо, бачте, вони і є ті самі еліти, які вдають, ніби ненавидять
І ось головне: якщо ви до цього причетні, наступного року ви піднімете праву руку і будете присягати говорити правду, тільки правду і нічого, крім правди, і хай допоможе вам Бог, перед Конгресом Сполучених Штатів
🇺🇦 Zelenskyy delivers a blunt message to the United States:
“Just give us Starlink back. If you refuse, Ukraine will survive. We will continue defending ourselves with or without it.
But why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival? Why make it harder for us to defend our people?
I simply cannot understand the reasoning behind this decision. It is a mistake.”
Ukraine isn’t asking America to fight its war. It’s asking America not to stand in the way of its defense.
How delightful to watch the failed Trump regime make itself even more unpopular across Europe. American companies will feel the loss of European contracts for generations. A century of commercial relationships is being sacrificed to satisfy the egos of a handful of spectacularly incompetent men.
And one final point. Trump and his regime are among the most unpopular in modern American history. So I consider it an honour to stand against them every single day, exposing their arrogance, incompetence and breathtaking stupidity.
Europe has survived considerably more formidable enemies than this collection of failed businessmen and political clowns.
It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say. But that’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.
To understand why this is so appalling, it’s important to know the facts. Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically.
Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer, become the first Somali-American legislator elected to public office in the U.S., and win a seat in Congress. There, she has been one of the Trump Administration’s fiercest critics, which has led the president to repeatedly single her out as someone who he believes does not belong in this country.
Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen. Federal agents have raided her home, confiscated personal records, and seized her phone — all to try and uncover a nonexistent smoking gun from 20 years ago that will somehow make their case.
Think about that. The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president. And it’s not the first time this has happened. Under President Trump, the Justice Department has repeatedly gone after those he considers his political enemies — from the Attorney General of New York, to the former head of the FBI, to members of the Federal Reserve.
In those cases, the prosecutions either stalled or were dismissed for having no basis in law, and the same is likely to happen in this case. But not before Congresswoman Omar’s life has been turned upside down, her legal bills have piled up, and she’s been forced to spend time fighting unsubstantiated charges instead of serving the people of Minnesota.
The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views. Because if this becomes the new normal, there’s no reason to believe it will stop with her — or that future presidents, in either party, won’t do the same.
So just to recap how Big Tech oligarchs who have financed Trump are now cooperating with autocracy: Musk helps Putin to kill Ukrainians, Zuckerberg censors anti-Trump protesters on Facebook, and Ellison uses CBS News to kiss ass. This is the dictatorial regime America has become.
La decisione di limitare l'uso di Starlink/Starshield distruggerà l'industria militare statunitense.
Chi comprerà più armi moderne dagli USA, sapendo che da un momento all'altro possono disattivarle?
D'altronde se possono farlo con Starlink, possono farlo con aerei da combattimento, sistemi missilistici, radar e qualsiasi altra cosa che si basi sulla connettività di rete.
Le scelte scellerate di Trump, usate per distogliere l'attenzione dalla sua fallimentare guerra in Iran, costeranno all'America miliardi di dollari all'anno.
Si tratta di un errore strategico catastrofico, del tutto evitabile, commesso solo per assecondare i capricci momentanei di un presidente in caduta libera nei sondaggi, con un disperato bisogno di risollevare la sua immagine, dopo l'infinita sequela di scelte sbagliate che ha fatto.
L'Europa prenda nota e agisca di conseguenza.

The decision to limit the use of Starlink/Starshield will destroy the U.S. military industry.
Who will continue to buy modern weaponry from the U.S., knowing that it could be deactivated at any moment?
After all, if they can do it with Starlink, they can do it with combat aircraft, missile systems, radar, and anything else that relies on network connectivity.
Trump’s reckless choices—made to divert attention from his failed war in Iran—will cost America billions of dollars a year.
This is a catastrophic, entirely avoidable strategic error, committed solely to indulge the fleeting whims of a president whose poll numbers are in freefall and who is desperately in need of salvaging his image following an endless series of poor decisions.
Europe should take note and act accordingly.
Gli ucraini sono fantastici.
Gli USA gli revocano Starshield, e loro durante la notte colpiscono San Pietroburgo, dove distruggono:
1) il magazzino della logistica Ozon
2) il terminal petrolifero al porto
3) stazione elettrica e data centre VK (il Facebook russo, che è offline da oggi)
4) Un deposito di petrolio/carburanti
Come diceva Lino Banfi, continua continua...
Stanotte sono esplose due notiziole:
1) l’ordine di limitare Starshield per impedire all’Ucraina di difendersi è arrivato direttamente dalla Casa Bianca.
2) Musk ha pubblicato l’elenco dei finanziatori per l’acquisizione di X e dentro ci sono due oligarchi della cerchia di Putin
Cercare di fermare il bipopulismo è un lavoro difficile, lungo e rischioso.
@Azione_it lo porta avanti da sette anni, rimanendo al centro, e affrontando la politica con idealismo e obiettività.
Abbiamo avuto alti e bassi ma siamo ancora qui, in piedi e con la schiena dritta.
Eravamo e siamo oggi ancora più convinti che non esista un futuro per l’Italia e per l’Europa se continueremo ad andare dietro agli estremismi, ai trasformismi e alle false promesse.
In questa legislatura abbiamo visto Renzi rifugiarsi nel campo largo e parlamentari di Azione e IV andare a sostenere il Governo a metà legislatura.
Noi qui rimarremo. A difesa dei valori europei e della democrazia liberale.
Chi vuole lavorare insieme a noi é benvenuto, chi con l’approssimarsi delle elezioni, si spaventa e fugge a destra o a sinistra per cercare scorciatoie sarà giudicato dagli elettori.
A questi ultimi possiamo solo rivolgere l’esortazione di un grande romano: “Signifer, statue signum; hic manebimus optime!
