Vad Kristersson tror eller inte tror spelar ingen roll. Han börjar redan framstå som en förlorare och det är åtta månader kvar till valet.
Kristersson tror inte på Åkesson som statsminister
Statsminister Ulf Kristersson (M) menar att det inte finns tillräckligt stöd för Jimmie Åkesson (SD) att bli statsminister efter höstens val. Det säger han i en intervju med TT.

"Jag har aldrig någonsin stött på en vanlig svensk som är antisemit". säger Jimmie Åkesson. Jaså. Han behöver inte gå över ån efter vatten. Ni kan gissa vilket parti där antisemitismen är mest utbredd i den mig veterligt senast genomförda undersökningen. www.levandehistoria.se/wp-content/u...

Sverige hade ungdomsfängelser fram till 1980. Vet ni varför de avskaffades?

- Skyhög återfallsrisk.
- Fungerade som skolor för värre kriminalitet.
- Gav de dömda en kriminell identitet.
- Bristfälligt vårdinnehåll.
- Ingen fungerande eftervård.

Blir nog bra…

Varför avskaffades påföljden ungdomsfängelse 1980? - Tidskrift för KRIMINALVÅRD
Huvudargumenten för att avskaffa ungdomsfängelse (UF) 1. Det förebyggde inte brott – återfallen var extremt höga 2. Institutionerna hade negativa sociala effekter Man såg att UF-institutionerna: Detta...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

”Salla vaatii julkisen sektorin pilvihankkeiden välitöntä pysäyttämistä. Kyse ei ole osaamisesta, vaan poliittisesta tahdosta. Kansallista turvallisuutta ja itsemääräämisoikeutta ei saa ulkoistaa.” Totta💯

Suomessa, muissa Pohjoismaissa ja Euroopassa on kaikenlaista kammottavaa meneillään samanaikaisesti kun taivastellaan trumpilaisen fasismin etenemistä.

Hundattacker, sparkar och rena våldtäkter i israeliska häkten och fängelser. Det vittnar tidigare palestinska fångar om i en ny rapport av israeliska människorättsorganisationen B'Tselem.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.

And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Ike knew this.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
The Prime Minister of Belgium speaks:
The time has come for Europe to start treating X like Yandex or TASS. It’s an enemy operated propaganda outlet

In a sane country with adults in Republican party leadership, this would be the time to invoke article 25 and remove Trump.
The world-cracking insanity of Trump unconstrained—with no "adult in the room" to push back, with no Republican possessing spine sturdy enough to stand up to him, with many Democratic leaders unwilling to admit the peril, with Wormtongues like Stephen Miller affirming his every base impulse.

One thing that now even the most hopeful have to admit, is that the unctuous European tactic of flattering, praising, massaging Trump has been a catastrophic failure and made things worse.

Europe is heading to a point where Atlanticism becomes equated with Appeasement

An aspect of the Greenland-crisis that has received less attention than it should is that, in proclaiming Russia or China can and will easily snap Gl up, Trump seems to be signalling that the US does not intend to honour NATOs mutual defence principle.

Vähäinen reunahuomautus: ajatuspaja ("think tank") on eri kuin tutkimuslaitos. Vrt ETLA ja EVA. Asiassa olet toki oikeassa.

Worrying but wise by @edwardluce.bsky.social. ".. pacifying Donald Trump only gets you so far. It buys time but is no substitute for having protection against a rogue superpower. We are thus in the early stages of an accelerating process of US de-risking."

How is it so difficult for @royalsociety.org to do its job? Namely: to *defend the conditions for science*. Nobody has delivered a more concrete and direct attack on science than Elon Musk & the US government. Boot him!
