At forsvare os selv bliver også dyrt, men går ud fra at vi - når alternativet er klart - vil være klar til det. Men det mener du måske ikke?

“The big plot twist this time is a Labour government that is prepared to say aloud that Brexit inflicted harm on the UK economy, and that closer relations with European neighbours are in the national interest” 👏

In the never-ending Brexit Wars saga, reality is finally fighting back | Rafael Behr

Voters can see that, in the world of Trump and Putin, Britain’s future is European. Westminster is playing catch-up, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

Infographic titled “Judges reject Trump at an accelerating pace” with subtitle “Federal district court rulings against the administration.”

The first bar chart, labeled “By month, %”, shows the percentage of federal district court rulings against the Trump administration:
• February: 53.8% (7 out of 13)
• March: 74.3% (26 out of 35)
• April: 76.1% (51 out of 67)
• May: 96.3% (26 out of 27)

The second bar chart, labeled “By appointing party, %”, shows rulings against the Trump administration by the party of the judge’s appointing president:
• Republican-appointed judges: 72.2% (26 out of 36)
• Democratic-appointed judges: 80.4% (74 out of 92)

Hvad er alternativet til at forsvare os selv?

Marlene Wind, PhD @profmarlenewind.bsky.social · May 24

Mars og Venus. EU og US er måske ved at bytte roller. USA er blevet svag og vil ikke længere bruge magt til at forsvare 🇺🇦, Europa har ikke helt forladt Venus, men lånt lidt fra Mars og er ikke længere bange for magten. Læs min nye klumme i @berlingske www.berlingske.dk/kommentatore...

Marlene Wind: Europa må forlade Venus og blive mere til Mars

Vores politikere antager, at det ikke er farligt at fastholde 🇺🇸 i Europa. At det kan købe os tid til selv at blive stærke. Men det hviler på den forkerte præmis, at 🇺🇸 ønsker et stærkt 🇪🇺 og det gør de ikke, skriver @jkaarsbo.bsky.social Alt i deres adfærd viser, at Trump’s 🇺🇸 kun ønsker at splitte os.

Jacob Kaarsbo @jkaarsbo.bsky.social · Apr 11

Den europæiske strategi tager ikke højde for den mulighed, at Trump ønsker et svagt og splittet Europa. Det svarer det til at have en ulv i fårefolden! De europæiske ledere bliver nødt til at stoppe med at håbe på, at “holde USA inde i Europa”! Min klumme👉🏻 www.altinget.dk/eu/artikel/j...
