From Denmark, with love — and deep concern. Cheering on the American people to stand up. Democracy is calling on all of us. “Never again” means NOW.

Presidential debate 2024:
”… I believe the reason that Donald Trump says that this war would be over within 24 hours is because he would just give it up. … you would give up for the sake of favor and what you think is a friendship with what is known to be a dictator who would eat you for lunch!”

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

When Orbán celebrates Trump and Putin making the world “safer”, that’s my cue to panic😳😬🫣

News story from Danish TV2 saying:

“The world has become safer after summit between Trump and Putin, says Orbán

The Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán, stated Saturday morning that “the world is a safer place” after the meeting between Trump and Putin. This is reported by the news agency Reuters.
For years we have seen the two largest nuclear powers dismantle the framework for their cooperation and send messages to each other. Now that is over, says Orbán.”

Thousands of Ukrainian parents are on the front lines, separated from their families. They live for moments like these. In a normal world, families shouldn’t be torn apart. Ukraine’s defenders fight so things come back to normal.

I can’t believe President T. is inviting Putin to Alaska handing him the upper hand before talks even begin.

Denmark stand by Ukraine and Zelenskyy all the way through this nightmare!

Well, it seems like you already are.

Income tax is progressive and depends on how much you earn. The lowest income tax rate is approximately 38%, while the highest rate is around 55%. Companies are taxed at a flat rate of 22% on their profits.

To make this possible, everyone contributes by paying their share of taxes. Employers are responsible for withholding taxes directly from your paycheck before you receive your salary. This ensures taxes paid automatically and consistently, supporting the welfare system that benefits everyone.

In Denmark, we have a strong welfare system that ensures support for those in need, elderly people, sick e.g., as well as access to free healthcare for everyone. Education is also free at all levels, from preschool through to university degrees, ensuring equal opportunities for everyone.
