Faustregel: Wenn ein Autokonvoi gegen zu hohe Benzinpreise protestiert, sind die Benzinpreise noch nicht zu hoch.

Das Deutschlandticket kostet die Bundesregierung 1,5 Milliarden Euro für das ganze Jahr.

Der ineffektive Tankrabatt soll für nur 2 Monate 1,6 Milliarden Euro kosten.

(Wenn es wie 2022 läuft, kostet er am Ende 3,2 Milliarden Euro pro Quartal.)

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented.

They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed.

That energy is all around us.

And it does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Die Deutschen hätten Habeck haben können. Eine der besten Politiker die ich kenne.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

Eigentümliche Stille zu alldem bei Ulfs Freiheitsreporter*innen

Widerstand gegen Migrationspolitik: Immer mehr Pi­lo­t*in­nen verhindern Abschiebungen Abschiebungen kosteten den Bund letztes Jahr Millionen. Dabei wendeten Polizisten tausendfach Gewalt an. Hoffnung macht das Verhalten der Flugcrews.

Ein Hoch auf die Pilot*innen: "Über 1.600 Mal mussten [Abschiebungen] abgebrochen werden, nachdem die Betroffenen schon in den Händen der Bundespolizei waren. In fast 1/3 der Fälle war dafür ausschlaggebend, dass die Pilot*innen von genutzten Linienflügen sich weigerten, dabei mitzuwirken.“

The Supreme Court confirmed what your bank account already knew: you were paying an illegal Trump Tax on nearly everything you bought. More than $160B drained from families under a fabricated “national emergency” the Court says never existed. This wasn’t a tariff. It was a heist dressed up as policy

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal.

Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.

Mia Valentina Paz Faria A 7-year-old from Venezuela who was living in Austin, Texas Detained for 70 days “I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

UPDATE: Staff at the ICE concentration camp in Dilley, Texas have begun raiding the dormitories of kids and their parents to confiscate and destroy letters from the children. This is in response to the ace reporting by @micarosenberg et al for ProPublica:

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

Raus aus der Manege - Warum öffentliches Reden mit Rechten ein Problem ist - 54books von Simon Sahner Vor bald zehn Jahren erschien ein Buch mit dem Titel „Mit Rechten reden“, in dem drei Autoren darüber nachdachten, wie…

"Was immer das Reden mit Rechten also gebracht haben soll, geschwächt hat es die Rechtsextremen innerhalb und außerhalb der AfD nicht. Trotzdem hat man das Gefühl, dass derzeit mehr als je zuvor mit Rechten geredet wird."

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.

Minneapolis' Community-Driven Anti-ICE Organizing Is Showing The Way What Minneapolis activists have to teach us about organizing communities to resist ICE

ICE’s tactics have been terrifying and tragic, but Minneapolis is responding in incredible ways. Residents are organizing, feeding and housing their neighbors, and putting real social infrastructure in place. What’s taking shape isn’t just a reaction, it’s a blueprint for resistance.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Sepia-toned vintage portrait photograph of Edith Clarke (1883–1959), the pioneering American electrical engineer, inventor of the Clarke Calculator (a graphical tool for solving power transmission problems), and the first woman to earn a master's degree in electrical engineering from MIT. She is shown in a close-up head-and-shoulders view against a dark, neutral background, gazing directly at the camera with a composed, intelligent expression. Clarke has distinctive curly hair neatly styled, and she wears thin, round pince-nez glasses perched on her nose with a thin bridge and side arms. She is dressed in a formal dark blouse or jacket. The classic early-to-mid-20th-century studio portrait style conveys her trailblazing role in electrical engineering and power systems innovation. #EdithClarke #WomenInEngineering #ElectricalEngineering #ClarkeCalculator #InventorsHallOfFame #MIT #MITAlum #PowerSystems

Edith Clarke, the first female electrical engineer in the US, invented a calculator (the Clarke calculator) to solve electric power transmission problems, a precursor to modern smart grid technology. It was patented in 1925. #WomenInSTEM

It's International Day of #CleanEnergy!

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."

Donald Trump has made America way less safe & the world way less safe.

His ICE makes our communities way less safe & he is destroying all relationships with our allies to the point of possibly dismantling NATO.

3 more years of this?

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏
