Kaja Kallas: we have to be really clear-eyed. We have one aggressor and one victim. And the one that needs security guarantees is Ukraine, not Russia. In last 100 years, Russia has attacked at least 19 countries, some as many as three or four times. None of those countries has ever attacked Russia

💥Hungary’s probably most scenic anti-Orbán protest is underway under the banner “Let’s defend our children,” after new details emerged about sexual and physical abuse in the child care system — plus ignorance or cover-ups by authorities. Orbán rival Péter Magyar leads the march of tens of thousands.

A handful of corporations control what we eat - and profit from it 👨‍💼🤑 Seeds, pesticides, machinery, carbon credits, fertilisers, even poultry genetics. That’s not free choice - that’s corporate monopolies. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

Yesterday, in just one day, I am told that the Ukrainians killed or critically wounded 900 Russians. In one day. All for the imperial dreams of a tyrant

Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans. Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills. Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

Europe must defend Europe.

"..humouring Trump was distasteful but necessary. Europe was able to avert much worse outcomes and limit Trump’s ability to do harm by patiently manoeuvring him back in line after each outburst. However, the grovelling strategy always had an expiration date. That date has now definitively passed..."

Het gevaar komt in Nederland van binnenuit. We hebben geen Trump nodig om fascisme te normaliseren; we zien de fascist altijd ergens anders, nooit in onszelf.

He seems to be suggesting that anything short of actively drowning themselves is evidence they sought to paddle their shipwreck to US to continue their mission. If true, I want an inspiring biopic of the most determined employees in human history. That'd be some serious can-do attitude.

Satellite image of the ruins of Chasiv Yar. Not a single building in the city remains intact. Russia brings death and ruin everywhere it goes.

The Reagan National Defense Survey,released Thursday,found that the majority of Americans favor sending lethal aid to support 🇺🇦 This confirms what we've known all along:that so many US people firmly stand with us.Friends, we're beyond grateful. Thankful to everyone supporting Ukraine on all levels

When global temperatures shot up by ~6°C about 56 million years ago, plants were unable to thrive The reduced ability of vegetation & soils to capture & store carbon may have kept temperatures elevated for >100,000 years Today Earth is warming ~10 times faster than it did 56 million years ago

Gelukkig doet NRC ook nog wél aan goeie journalistiek: over 1,5 jaar vertragen en saboteren door BBB, met als gevolg enorme schade voor havenbedrijven, ondernemers, bouw en boeren (en natuur, milieu, dieren, aanzien van NL, goodwill in EU).

This is what #Ukraine is fighting for. Seven more Ukrainian children have come home after being illegally held by Russia. Every Ukrainian child abducted by Russia must come home.

After Elon Musk lashed out at the EU, calling for its dissolution and accusing the Commission of strangling Europe with bureaucracy, Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski fired back: “Go to Mars. There’s no censorship on Nazi salutes there.”

And the power just went out . It’s gonna be out till 4 am in the morning. Thankfully I have gas stove and lights on batteries and power banks and power station and wi fi that can work without electricity and the warm black tea I already made for myself. So fkc you Russia

This is literally neo-Nazi talking points that I've been tracking for years. This is what white nationalists have been promoting & is the thesis of mass shooters and terrorists such as Anders Breivik. Now? GOP talking points. Are they doing politics "the right way?" www.bbc.com/news/article...

If we do not get big money out of UK politics we are doomed. There should be strict (and enforced) rules on the funding of political parties.

Ook wij hebben met de Groenen een brandbrief gestuurd: aan @ec.europa.eu. Met dit plan zetten ze de gezondheid van Europeanen en de natuur op het spel! We moeten ons pesticide gebruik juist drastisch verminderen en inzetten op alternatieven. Wat ons betreft komt dit voorstel er niet.

These boat strikes will be nothing compared to the war crimes they will commit after they initiate regime change to seize Venezuelan oil companies.

NEW EPISODE: Donald Trump’s “revenge prosecutions” are threatening the rule of law — and former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance says our democracy may not survive unless Americans act now. We discuss how Donald Trump is weaponizing the Department of Justice to target his political enemies and much more.

Spot on.

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrDsk2TE/ The United States of America is disappearing people without a trace. That’s makes TACO no different than Augusto Pinochet and Idi Amin. Like EXACTLY the same. There is far far too little outrage over this shit. It INFURIATES me that MY country is doing this shit.

At the Kyiv railway station – a sculpture Volya by Oleksii Sai Made from the damaged letters of a welcome sign in Liubymivka, a frontline village in Kherson region, occupied in March 2022 and liberated that October. Volya means both freedom and will – a word that perfectly captures 🇺🇦 spirit.

Je kunt niet jarenlang migranten en asielzoekers vernederen, opjagen en criminaliseren en dan verbaasd zijn over de vurige haat en intimidatie die dat zaait. Misschien dringt nu eindelijk door dat racisme een directe bedreiging vormt voor de dem rechtsstaat en dus een gevaar is voor ons allemaal.

Walz on calling for Trump to release MRI results: "Here we got a guy on Thanksgiving where we spent time with our families, ate, played Yahtzee. This guy is apparently in a room ranting. It's not normal behavior. It's not healthy. Has anyone in history ever had an MRI & had no idea what it was for?"

Ireland is so beautiful. Just imagine how it would be if we actually protected and restored our nature, instead of killing it off everywhere, on land and at sea?

A woman recently went viral for holding up a window sign during a traffic stop, part of a growing trend of drivers using cards to assert their rights instead of speaking to police.

Ook Nederland wordt droger. Op de hogere zandgronden goed te zien als je je ogen niet in je zak hebt. Beken, vijvers en drinkpoelen die vaker en langer droog vallen. Daar komt het hoge watergebruik (vaak voor teelt van veevoer) nog bij. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
