The US administration continues to push to the extreme right by threatening organizations protecting us from anti-constitutional hate groups. Just another indication of where the regime is heading. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04...
Beitragsbemessungsgrenzen müssen ganz abgeschafft werden. Sie belasten Geringerverdienende mehr als Spitzenverdiener und sind sozial ungerecht. Interressanterweise gibt es die auch hier in den USA bei der Sozialversicherung, die dadurch in finanzieller Gefahr ist. www.tagesschau.de/inland/innen...
They voted for a convicted fellon, sex offender, more of those in the administration, who knows what is still hidden in the Epstein files. Satire started when he became the GOP candidate for 45.
So his apotheosis, images on coins, name on Federal Buildings, Kennedy Center, Peace Institute, airports, his arc, etc. are in anticipation of his rapidly approaching demise? What are his physicians not telling us?
Still puny compared to the Grand Arche de La Defense in Paris with its 110 m or 360 feet. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The difference between Democrats and Republicans: accused of sex abuse, Democrats resign, Republicans become President, Cabinet members, or Supreme Court judges. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/u...
Perhaps a reason for optimism: as much as Orban may have provided a blueprint for Trump, Orban conceded defeat in today's election. Let's work on defeating MAGA in the mid terms to reactivate Congress as a check on the administration's abuse of power. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/w...
This Administration plans to kill us slowly. Most affected are most likely communities on the wrong side of the tracks, downstream and downwind of polluters. Rewinding over 50 years of environmental justice. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/09/c...
Why do they claim Artemis II crew will be the first to see the far side of the moon? Several Apollo missions orbited the moon, starting with Apollo 8. What do they all think the crew member in the capsule did while the other team members visited the moon?
Way to go to demoralize our military. ICE-agents: Third-Reich Germans also apologized that their higher-ups made them do it. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/05/u...
Trump continues to play into Putin's hands. If it's unintentional then he is not fit to be our President. If it's intentional then he needs to be impeached. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/w...
Trump continues his assault on our Constitution, continuing his election lies, and undermining voters' trust in our secure election system. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

Das Stadtbild war ironisch gemeint. Digital Gewalt hat eine noch größere Reichweite und ist zu leicht zu erzeugen, sodaß selbst eine Trennung oder andere Flucht aus der Gewalt diese nicht mehr beenden kann.
This makes sense as the USA has become an unreliable partner in the DEFENSE treaty that is NATO. Helping another treaty member that started a war is no part of that treaty. In any case, Europe needs to be able to defend itself in the reality created by Putin and Trump.
Der Kanzler schützt seine Töchter vor dem Stadtbild. Er ist noch nicht in der digitalen Wirklichkeit angekommen.
Ironically, nationalized immigrants do have naturalization documents in their names to prove citizenship. Folks born in the US may have birth certificates but will be in trouble if their names changed since. Clearly a move to disenfranchise citizens. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/26/u...
The GOP Senators do not have to do what Trump tells them. Checks and balances. Stop paying them with our tax payer money if they abscond their responsibilities.
The Trump administration is now even paying so we fall behind on beneficial technologies. Soon we'll be a smoke-belching dinosaur ridiculed by the rest of the world. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/23/c...
A philosophical giant has left us. He influenced the thinking of German post-war generations, including mine. In my opinion, he made Germany be better. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/b...
We know they don't care about laws or the Constitution. And the GOP majority in Congress blocks impeachment because they are scared into sycophancy. Look at how Lindsay Graham changed his tune.
Perhaps one cannot expect athletes to realize that everything and everyone Trump touches gets soiled. Hats off to the women's US ice hockey team. They knew how to bow out. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/w...
Trump family member benefitting from war against Iran. Trumpian greed. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/b...
Not as easy when trying to organize meetings, especially around the times of change-overs, because they are not globally aligned. Apparently not your bailiwick.
