bill gates was never the “good” billionaire
Bill Gates has liquidated his climate policy and advocacy organization, laying off dozens of staff in Washington, Brussels, and elsewhere.
It’s another giant retrenchment for the billionaire, who had already slashed his climate grant budget last month. heatmap.news/climate/brea...

For national security, Europe and UK MUST NOT buy American weapons that the US has the ability to “turn off” if they don’t agree with policy decisions. This is JOB NUMBER ONE of a government. Keep your citizens safe from belligerent nations even if they may have been benign in the past.
Game-theory this out, Europe. The F-35 cannot be operated independently. Cancel it. Now.
Cancel F-35
It cannot be operated independently.
That’s it.
Since the US is a belligerent antagonist to all European values, this is a no brainer.

kinda like this idea…
If you aren't getting a refund, or you can afford a delayed refund, file your taxes on paper, via US Mail this year.
Mail them at the last possible moment.
If the percentage of people who file electronically goes way down, and Elon has fired half the IRS, they are screwed.
