Musk bought Twitter now 3 times in a row.

Musk bought Twitter now 3 times in a row.
Isn't it a fantastic coincidence that the perfect merger partner for a Musk company is always another Musk company?
But why isn't the car company (which is now an AI and robotics company) the perfect partner for the AI company (which is also a social media network)?

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

In Grenoble/France where I work, a steep rise in bicycle commutes (green) happened, mainly because of strong support from the local municipality through infrastructure changes - bike lanes! This coincides with a drop in car usage (red), while walking (yellow) and public transp. (black) stayed flat.
🚴♀️📉À Grenoble, il y a sans doute aujourd’hui plus de vélotafeurs que de voiture-tafeurs.
Analyse de Loïc Cedelle : la hausse du vélo correspond presque exactement à la baisse de la voiture, sans effet sur TC ni marche. 👉 vrai report modal.
Pendant que la France plafonne à 3–4 %, Grenoble dépasse 25%.

Since ramping up his threats over Greenland, Donald Trump has claimed that the US has “never gotten anything” out of NATO and that its allies wouldn't show up if the US were attacked.

"Come Europeans, don't be stupid. Bend over, take a deep breath, and let it pass. It's not that bad".
Scott Bessent is becoming the Comical Ali of the Trump administration. Going out to the world and saying trade deals with the US provide “great certainty”, when Trump is spewing tariffs out the wazoo every day, requires an uncommon ability to suspend disbelief.

And this is why Canada will be (and has recently declared to be) on the side of Europe in the case of a conflict over Greenland.
I don't know why nobody expresses openly what Trump's goal is: to be the president who made the home country larger, through invasions.

If this official letter to European politicians is not a clear indication that the president of the US is mentally insane and that he should be removed from office, I don't know what is. He is clearly not well and should seek help.
