I am old enough to remember that today is the day Trump wanted to impose secondary sanctions on all those who buy Russian oil if Russia does not agree to an unconditional ceasefire in Ukraine.

Die Union kann sich mal wieder darauf verlassen, dass andere, die sie schäbig behandelt hat, sich vernünftig verhalten und eigene Interessen hinten anstellen, um nicht den ganzen Laden zu beschädigen (wie zuletzt als man die Grünen fürs Geld brauchte)

The company says this is an “incentive for him to stay at Tesla.”

Hey, #shareholders
So #TESLA is going to pay #Musk 1.3 Mio US$ / hour, if the stock will stay at 75% of its YTD High until end of 2027?
Perhaps you better sell?

Honolulu Leads Legal Fight Against Fossil Fuel Companies The city says the companies knew for decades that their products caused global warming and profited from it. The outcome could indicate how other cases play out.

Honolulu is suing fossil fuel companies for climate change damages, and the companies are trying to get the suit dismissed by claiming that the statute of limitations has expired because we’ve known about climate change for decades. Lol.

Aber dass die Freunde der fossilen Brennstoffe Freunde des freien Marktes seien, war ja schon immer ein Märchen, das man nur erzählte, solange es zum gewünschten Ergebnis führte: ungestörte Externalisierung der Schäden durchs eigene Geschäftsmodell.

Fact Sheet: The United States and European Union Reach Massive Trade Deal MAKING GLOBAL HISTORY: Yesterday, President Donald J. Trump announced a trade deal with the European Union (EU), fundamentally rebalancing the economic

Believe it or not, the EU-US trade deal just got messier.

The White House has published a fact-sheet about the agreement with claims that directly contradict the European Commission's version of events.

Let's take a closer look.

Einigung im Zollstreit: Deutsche Wirtschaft kritisiert Handelsdeal als „fatal“ Die USA und die EU haben sich im Zollstreit geeinigt. Die deutsche Wirtschaft kritisiert die Einigung scharf. Von dem Deal gehe ein „fatales Signal“ aus, moniert der Industrieverband BDI. Der Außenhan...

Die EU verpflichtet sich, in den USA (fossile) Energie im Wert von 750 Milliarden Dollar zu kaufen und weitere 600 Milliarden zu investieren.

Das sind 1,35 Billionen Dollar (!), die wir NICHT für den Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien und die Stärkung der eigenen Wirtschaft nutzen. Wahnsinn.

Good question.

At least 3 killed and others injured in train derailment in southern Germany A regional passenger train has derailed in southern Germany, killing at least three people and seriously injuring others.

One reason a German train accident is international news and German car accidents are not is that roughly 1000x more people die in car accidents each year in Germany. It’s so common that it’s not newsworthy.

Screenshot of WhiteHouse Page showing the executive order with "the number of individuals living on the streets in the United States on a single night during the last year of the previous administration - 274,224 - was the highest ever recorded." Number 274,224 highlighted

I absolutely don't think that to be the most problematic part of that executive order, but I'm sure he has - unsurprisingly, as that is his trademark - his numbers wrong.
Too lazy, too dumb, or what for?

So Trump thinks the way to stop people from talking about him being a pedophile who collaborated with a pedophile ring, is to consider pardoning the person who was convicted for running the pedophile ring, presumably in return for her pointing the finger at others, & not him?

Brilliant. #Epstein

Beyond the 60 Minutes payoff & Colbert cancelation, an unprecedented capitulation: as part of merger agreement, new parent company agrees to install an official to "monitor bias" at CBS’s news division. CBS news will essentially be state controlled media.

Bin grad in Tirana. Hier sind alle neueren Taxis (und das sind sehr viele) BEVs. Aber Albanien hat natürlich nicht so eine deinvestierte Infrastruktur wie wir.

The British trade deal wasn't what they said it was, the Vietnamese are still yet to confirm Trump's announcement, and the Japanese say they're not signing a binding agreement. The White House has released the text of ZERO (0) deals, and maybe it's all just social media posts all the way down.

Here’s how it’s about to go down: Ghislaine names a bunch of Democrats, maybe tosses in a few billionaires. She says Trump did nothing wrong. MAGA praises her for “taking down the pedophiles.” Trump pardons her… for “telling the truth.”

I think @keithedwards.bsky.social nails it here, with the next step being Republicans like MTG and Burchett rallying around Trump for "exposing the Democrats."
