Alleen deze ene moord zou al genoeg moeten zijn voor iedere Ameerikaan om nooit meer op Trump of een van zijn kandidaten te stemmen en zou bovendien Trump moeten doen aftreden.
Alex Pretti's father: Our son was shot and killed by the government, federal immigration agents, on January 24th, 2026. We learned about his death from the media as we saw him being shot repeatedly in the back after helping a woman from his community. This was not a protest that Alex was at. His hands were in the air, and his face was on the ground when he was executed by ICE agents. We know exactly what our eyes saw. No one from the federal government called us on that day. But they did go on TV to tell lies about Alex. No one has called us since. No one has recanted those lies.

Similar to what happened in Hungary, Serbia’s RTV-1 publicly apologized to viewers for years of one-sided and uncritical reporting. Presenter Goran Er(r)or said the public service had failed to ask the right questions and had not fulfilled its role. #Serbia

In bijna alle races gaat het over dure boodschappen, benzine en energierekeningen. Trumps oliedomme (handels)oorlogen jagen de prijzen op. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (Mississippi) floepte eruit dat wie geen rundvlees kan betalen, maar wat anders moet eten. Haar tegenstander maakte er gehakt van:

Oh my, another idiot take that just won’t die. The Europeans are not funding Russia’s war. They started from a deep structural dependency on Russian energy and have made tremendous — and fast — progress on decoupling. This isn’t something you just turn off overnight. And they still contribute far more to Ukraine in aid anyway. In contrast, the US is not even remotely dependent on Russian fossil fuels and yet the Kremlin asset in the White House is easing sanctions anyway while completely shutting off aid. Contrary to the braindead takes of Trump apologists, the hypocrisy runs squarely through Washington, not Brussels.
In case you were wondering who was funding Russia's war on Ukraine, the EU is the number 1 purchaser of Russia's liquid natural gas and pipeline gas products through September 2026.energyandcleanair.org/august…

Slovenian philosopher Žižek: We would be much better without hope. We are not yet hopeless enough. Only when you are really desperate do you act. In a film on the Munich deal, an anti-Nazi German says hope is an excuse to leave to others what you should do now. 1/

Servië kiest voor Europa en tegen Poetin. Na Boedapest overwint ook in Belgrado de stem van een open en democratische toekomst. Studentenbeweging wint de verkiezingen. 🇷🇸 🇪🇺
Serbia 🇷🇸: celebrations erupt in the city of Niš following the victory of the Student List in the parliamentary elections.

Belangrijke ontwikkelingen in het VK! De rol van Farage lijkt eindelijk uitgespeeld, zijn corruptie en Pro-Poetin politiek halen hem eindelijk in. Labour premier Andy Burnham heeft eindelijk door dat de Britse kiezer terug wil naar de Unie!
🇬🇧🇪🇺 Reform is finished. The anti-EU party has fallen from first place a year ago to third. Labour, the party bringing the UK back towards the EU, leads the polls at 30%. Reform championed a Brexit that saw non-EU migration surge while European migration collapsed. A Brexit sold on lies that held back productivity, growth and British wages. Soon they will see the UK rejoin the EU and put an end to their sham. Great news for Britain.

This is what Putin is afraid of in Ukraine. After Kyiv left Russia it would have grown rapidly. Putin could not allow that it would have threatened his perpetual rule.
What happens when you finally get the Russians out.

21st century empires won’t need gunboats – they’ll just need to supply the AI running your defense network. When your national security relies on foreign code, military supremacy becomes digital colonialism. From the recent @RestIsPolitics podcast with @RoryStewartUK.

Zelenskyy: I offered the US three options if they want us to stop hitting Russian refineries: 1. Russia stops attacking our energy. 2. Open Starlink over Russian ballistic missile launch sites. 3. Give us Patriot missiles. We got none. Instead, Starlink was restricted.

Ondanks de massale steun en hulp van #Poetin en #Trump verliest na 10 jaar aan de macht de partij van Vucic. Servië kiest net als Hongarije eerder dit jaar voor democratie en Europa. #EU moet nu haast maken me uitbreiding!
Three pro-Trump influencers on the same day in Belgrade. All have the same script: visit the St. Sava church in Belgrade and post on how Serbia is defending Christian values and criticize Vučić’s oponents one day ahead of national elections. Two are US-based but there are more.

De voter suppression in #Brazilië door het saboteren van het openbaar vervoer is zo ernstig dat het hoogste gerechtshof in Brazilië de verkiezingsdag met 2 uur verlengde. Goed nieuws voor de democratie en voor Lula.
BREAKING: Brazil’s Supreme Court, in a rare move, ruled to extend voting by two hours after complaints by Lula’s campaign about public transport issues. 🟠 LIVE updates: aje.news/0i0tp1

Belangrijke dag vandaag, slechte dag voor regimes en dicators. #Servië 🇷🇸🇪🇺
Serbian 🇷🇸student/civic two year democratic movement incarnated politically today as the "Student List - Students Win" - makes historic electoral victory, and gains a full majority in Parliament, defeating the 14 year elective authoritarian regime of Alexander Vučić.
