Kaum jemand beherrscht die vor abstoßender Selbstgewissheit strotzende Inszenierung erratischer Analysen unter fehlerhaften Prämissen so virtuos wie Richard David Precht.

Praktisch nichts von dem, was der Mann heute von sich gegeben hat, war wahr, schön oder gut.

FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

In these times of geopolitical uncertainty, enlargement is a strategic choice.

It is an investment in our shared security and freedom.

Vor einer Woche kreiste stundenlang ein Drohnenschwarm
über einem #Bundeswehr -Ausbildungszentrum. Die Truppe hat die unbemannten Systeme nicht abgewehrt - das wäre "nicht verhältnismäßig"
DroneWatch: Klar hätten wir die abschießen können, wir wollten aber gar nicht – Augen geradeaus!

Stunningly poor understanding by POTUS of the actual state of the war in Ukraine, of why Soldiers “who don’t have the cards” fight (see Vietnam, Afghanistan, American Revolution), and why Ukrainian success is important to American strategic interests.
Trump reposted a message claiming that “Ukraine must be willing to give up part of its territory to Russia, otherwise the longer the war lasts, the more land it will lose.”

The EU just decided to indefinitely immobilise Russian assets.

This ensures that up to €210 billion in Russian funds stay on EU soil, unless Russia fully pays reparations to Ukraine for the damage it has caused. (1/2)

In an audacious move, the EU has decided to indefinitely immobilise the Russian sovereign assets, pushing back against external pressure to release the funds before Moscow agrees to pay war reparations to Ukraine.
By locking in Russian assets for good, the EU finally plays hardball

Dear Americans

We, in Europe, think you’ve elected a President that is a fuckwit, a very bad person and very obviously ill.

We do listen to him. With scorn.

And we wonder how the hell you did something so stupid TWICE.
President Trump claims that European countries want him to be our president as well

Is there anyone in the US who actually believes this garbage?

What a disgusting, ignorant, arrogant statement by the Secretary of Defense of the United States. Nobody trusts anything he says or does. That’s very dangerous for the US…we depend so much on our Allies. I served in Afghanistan in RC South 2009-2010 where thousands of Allies fought and many died.
HEGSETH: We wore a patch on our shoulder that said ISAF -- International Security Assistance Force. And you know what the joke was? That is stood for 'I saw Americans fighting.'

COONS: Let's just make clear for the record that our military partners in Afghanistan included many who served and died

China has provided strong diplomatic support to Russia since its 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine and has also extended an economic lifeline through increased trade.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Building a real single market for financial services.

We aim to integrate EU financial markets by removing barriers in trading, post-trading, and asset management.

Our proposal makes cross-border investing simpler, cheaper, and more beneficial for Europeans.
