Pääministeri Orpo lienee ainoa ihminen, joka ei ole saanut "mitään viitteitä" siitä että Suomen ja USAn kahdenvälinen turvallisuussuhde olisi muutoksessa.
On tärkeää että valtiojohtomme ei toista idioottimaisuuksia ja kiellä tosiasioita. Vakaa toiminta Euroopan tasolla rauhoittaa, ei lässytys.

Tämä Purran hallitus ei voi jatkaa. On täysin epärealistista kuvitella, että EU voisi tukea Ukrainaa ja vahvistaa Euroopan puolustusta ilman yhteisvelkaa nyt, kun USA on Putinin puolella. Purran hallitus on eksistentiaalinen uhka Suomelle.

Trump blindsides staff, Congress with conflicting Medicaid messages
Republicans are getting worried about how much they'll have to cut from the popular health safety-net program, and whether the president will protect them from political blowback.

I think it's the first case in human history where a nation fighting for its survival against a major aggressor is being forced—by a non-combatant partner—into paying Versailles-style reparations over military aid that had earlier been provided purposefully at no cost.

For me, the worst about Trump's unimaginably terrifying "Ukraine started the war" comment is that it destroys my sense of reality. Am I awake? Am I hallucinating? Is everything an illusion that can implode any moment? If I end up in a padded room, you know who to blame.

Musk and his army of dipshits on Twitter keep pointing to Bill Clinton’s federal worker reduction in the 1990s to defend Trump. The difference? Congress passed a law that Clinton signed, he didn’t just get the nearest billionaire to illegally start dismantling the government based on his whims.

Trump and his administration have been portrayed as defenders of free speech. The truth is quite the contrary. The presidential decree against DEI prohibits even mentioning certain issues. (cont. below)
