The EU wasn’t formed to screw anyone. Quite the opposite. It was formed to maintain peace, to build respect among our nations, to create free and fair trade, and to strengthen our transatlantic friendship. As simple as that. 🇪🇺🇺🇸

If you’re still on the fence about voting in this election, think about what really matters – about the values we were taught, the kind of country we want to be, and how this is a moment when your vote really does count. 

Your vote could determine the fate of our republic – the world that our children and grandchildren will inherit. It’s an awesome responsibility. But what an extraordinary privilege it is to live in a democracy that gives each of us the opportunity to make our voices heard.

People assumed that renewable energy development would increase once it became cheaper than fossil fuels. But capital doesn't care about cheapness. It cares about *profits*. Capital won't invest when the outlook is like this. You need to make the necessary investments directly.

Erschreckend wie klar Habeck am 26.9.2019 die Situation von VW und Co. vorhersieht und richtige Lösungen vorschlägt (die nicht umgesetzt werden), und absurd, dass heute einige ausgerechnet ihm die Krise anhängen wollen.

Incitement to war crimes, genocide and elimination of Ukraine on Russian TV.

Share this playlist. Flood Western echo chambers with the truth of what Russia is doing and wants to do to Ukraine and Ukrainians, admitted out loud by Russians themselves.

Michael is deployed serving our country, something you know nothing about. Someone who continually disrespects the sacrifices of military families has no business being commander in chief.

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

4 February 1925 | A French Jewish woman, Ginette Kolinka (née Cherkasky), was born in Paris.

She was deported to #Auschwitz from Drancy in April 1944. She was transferred to Bergen-Belsen and then to #Theresienstadt. She survived.
Today she turns 99.

Vor 90 Jahren ließ das Sowjetregime Millionen von Ukrainer:innen verhungern. Ein unfassbarer Genozid! Heute strebt 🇷🇺 wieder danach, die 🇺🇦 und seine Bevölkerung zu vernichten. Wir müssen den 🇷🇺 Imperialismus stoppen, damit so etwas nie wieder passiert.
#HolodomorRemembranceDay

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

They sought to humiliate us, wear us out, and annihilate us. They failed. They wanted to conceal the truth from us and cover up terrible crimes. They failed. They wanted to confuse, deceive, and cause us to lose our faith, forget, and thus forgive. They failed. And today, with deep sorrow and respect, we honor the memory of millions of our people—millions of victims of famines.

The tragedy for which we still weep and keep silent today, so silent that the entire world should hear it. This is the sound of Ukrainian pain.

We are grateful to all of the countries who have chosen justice. Recognized it officially. Acknowledged the Holodomor as a crime against people and against Ukraine. All those who call things by their names.

The world must unite and condemn the crimes of the past. The world must unite and stop the crimes of today.

Evil was not stopped. There was no atonement. We are stopping it right now. Ukraine will endure. Ukraine will not fade away. Ukraine will preserve itself and the truth.

With yet another deadly mass shooting in America, it’s worth re-watching Jon Stewart completely dismantle a Republican MAGA extremist on the issue.

We've lost some subscribers after we put this video/podcast out. And as I say in the video, I'm fine with that.

As the founder of @LeverNews, I'm not interested in cultivating - or comforting - readers who want antisemitism or Islamophobia.

Tears. This is incredible. Must watch.
