So the next time you interview a grid operator complaining about renewables and electric cars, ask him: "What incentive structure do you have in place to reward electric vehicle owners for avoiding grid congestion on the moments and locations grid congestion actually occurs?"

curious how Trump decided to attack NATO right after his long phone call with Putin

Zeg #Waterlink, jullie hebben jaren geleden al een digitale watermeter geplaatst. Kunnen jullie zoals de collega’s van de gas en de ellentriek ook de 21ste eeuw binnenstappen en werken met nauwkeurige afrekeningen ipv dat prehistorisch gedoe met voorschotten en corrigerende afrekeningen?

🇭🇺 Hungary Orbánland It has come to this: a renowned and highly trusted investigative Hungarian journalist is being accused of espionage simply for doing his job. Please support @szabolcspanyi.bsky.social in every possible way and read his long message (1/3)

The US President casually announcing his intention to commit war crimes on social media. That's where you're at, America.

Waarom toch, #Wijnegem, zou een groendienst vandaag nog nood hebben aan een lichte vracht met expliciet een verbrandingsmotor? Er zijn performante e-modellen, die vermoedelijk goedkoper zijn qua TCO, zeker in geopolitiek spannende tijden.

A perfect summation of Trump's mental state.

Days after declaring total victory and boasting that no other military could match the US, Trump is now begging other countries — including China — to send warships to stop his Iran war from spiraling into catastrophe. A galactic humiliation.

Früher war das Autoland Deutschland ein Zentrum der Innovation. Heute müssen wir immer öfter nach #China schauen. #BYD zeigt Akkus, die in 5 Minuten von 10 auf 70 % laden. Trotzdem hält die Verbrennerfraktion hierzulande am Alten fest – und wir verspielen Zukunft und Wohlstand.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

This is it, right here, right now. The whole game. All his voter suppression, gerrymandering, and other election cheating has lead to this. If Trump takes over elections, it’s game over for democracy in the United States. If the people aren’t willing to shut down the country over this, it’s over.

A woman who has accused both Trump and Epstein of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor decades earlier gave four interviews to the FBI. Summaries of three of those interviews were not released with the Epstein files. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/25/u...

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Renee Good’s vehicle after an immigration agent fatally shot her, but Trump administration officials ordered them to stop investigating. About a dozen prosecutors have since resigned, leaving the Minnesota U.S. attorney’s office in turmoil.

This really shouldn't surprise anyone.

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Cellphone footage is an incredibly important source of accountability to report the news. Journalists rely on videos filmed by regular people. Government attacks on those who document the news, whether journalists or not, are attacks on press freedom and the First Amendment. By @juliaangwin.com

Of we van fascisme kunnen spreken? "Ik denk het, ja," oordeelt historicus Christophe Busch. Hij volgt met groeiende bezorgdheid de politieke situatie in de VS ("democratisch verval") na de dodelijke incidenten met ICE, die hij een 'politieke politie in opbouw' noemt www.vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/20...

"Two members of Elon Musk’s DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states,” and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls..."

A top doctor said the 79-year-old’s recent behavior “should trigger a bipartisan congressional inquiry into presidential fitness.”

Noorderlicht boven Antwerpen !

Elke dag denkt ge, nu kan het toch niet nog erger, maar met dit bericht houd ik nu mijn hart al vast voor morgen. Wat een absolute shitshow.

BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good? BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

New: meet ELITE, the Palantir app ICE is using to find neighborhoods to raid. Map interface; officers search for immigrants; click person to bring up individual dossier. This is clearest link between what Palantir is building and ICE's activities on the ground yet www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

The race is on to save records of Alpine glacier ice before they melt away. An archive is being created in Antarctica for ice cores taken from around the world. The cores store invaluable scientific information that would be lost to future study. phys.org/news/2026-01... #climatechange #glaciers

And here we are: the entire transatlantic alliance is now talking about Greenland, instead of talking about ending the war in Ukraine.

“A diplomatic source said: 'The generals think Trump's Greenland plan is crazy and illegal. So they are trying to deflect him with other major military operations. They say it's like dealing with a five-year-old'.” That’s an insult to 5-year olds. A dangerous and corrupt moron.

TRUMP: “We need Greenland” The guardrails are gone

Treinfanaten (to be), ge hebt nog juist 2 uur om een jaarkaart Train+ te kopen met 50% korting. Sla uw slag nog snel in de app van de #NMBS ! Met die geteouwheidskaart krijgt ge 40% korting op daluur- en weekendritten. Nu nog 24 euro voor een jaar, vanaf morgen 48 euro.

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

Israel approves 19 new West Bank settlements in major annexation push https://aje.io/7xi4oe

Wat een knal in Antwerpen een halve minuut geleden.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites. He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him. www.wsj.com/world/china/...

Current plans to tackle global warming will only save 3 percent of Europe's Alpine glaciers from disappearing this century, with most melting away within the next two decades, a new study has found.

As of today, there are more electric cars than diesel cars in Norway.

The glue of the emerging Russo-American alliance is corruption. The consequences will be more imperialist aggression and more war crimes.

Trump calls for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Ik hoor op vrt radionws dat Riziv enkel naar parket kan stappen als zorgverleningsfraude niet wordt terugbetaald. Dat kan toch niet kloppen ? Fraude is toch altijd misdrijf ook als het terugbetaald wordt ? En ambtenaren hebben altijd meldingsplicht bij misdrijven ?

Breaking News: House Democrats released emails in which Jeffrey Epstein alleged that Donald Trump knew of the convicted sex offender's conduct and “spent hours at my house” with a victim.

Laat u gerust eens gaan, maar klaag dan nadien de burger niet aan die bezorgd is over de capaciteit v/d burgemeester om bij lokale rampen snel en adequaat te reageren? Zoiets vastleggen lijkt me niet onverenigbaar met de vrijheid van meningsuiting? @jogchumv.bsky.social www.hbvl.be/regio/limbur...

1/ In de VS is het zo normaal, het 'unsealen' van gerechtelijke documenten met een publiek belang. Vandaag was dat het geval in de zaak-Epstein, met kennelijk linken naar "two US presidents", maar denk ook aan bodycambeelden met daarop soms overmatig politiegeweld. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/30/b...

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Dit kan niet fout gaan, toch?

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Trump posts AI video showing him literally dumping shit on America

Holy wow, +3.5 ppm CO₂ last year, up from +2.4 ppm average the past decade, and +0.6 ppm in the 1960s. It gets scarier the closer you look at it. All this is a stress test for the planet, and it's buckling. Two big reasons for the massive increase: wildfires, and the ocean sinks are shutting down.
