"The minting of this coin, while Trump is alive, appears to be illegal."

STING successfully neutralized several drones in Danish airspace 🇩🇰🚀

This happened during a combat experience exchange as part of a visit by a Ukrainian delegation.

Ukrainian pilots launched the STING interceptor, which accurately took down a Danish Banshee target drone.

Post a favorite econ paper: Lichter et al. (2021, JEEA) @sigginho.bsky.social

Regions with higher Stasi spy density in East Germany still show lower trust, lower incomes, higher unemployment, and less entrepreneurship decades after reunification.

Circus of lies: Russia “tried to join NATO twice,” sanctions “completely failed,” Ukraine’s tragedy is “pain for both Russians and Ukrainians,” Trump could have “prevented the war,” North Korea “tried to stop it,” and Russia only needs to “liberate 0.13% of Luhansk.” Propaganda mixed with delusion.
