🔥SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 BILLION— as he leads 🇺🇸 diplomacy + asks sheikhs for billions more… Never have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia taking corruption to spectacular new heights.”

Isar Aerospace will be broadcasting the second flight and qualification mission of its Spectrum launch vehicle, starting an hour before liftoff, at the earliest 20:00 CET (19:00 GMT) on 23 March: youtube.com/live/MsbZj8P...

"Operation Epic Fury and Operation Roaring Lion are manifestly illegal, constituting both a violation of the UN Charter and the international crime of aggression."

Today has pretty much confirmed the North Korea argument of why you need nukes.

Putin’s lobbyist in Europe. Viktor Orbán is a pathetic traitor

Wasn’t the AI act supposed to force platforms like youtube to mark AI generated content as such? So many people around me get highly political short videos made by AI with fake news and antidemocratic propaganda! Why do we have these laws, if they do not seem to work?

Alexei Navalny was killed by the toxin epibatidine which has been developed by Russia, the U.K. government announced in a statement. "Only the Russian state had the means, motive and opportunity to deploy this lethal toxin." More on our #MSC2026 blog: www.politico.eu/article/muni...

One day China and the US mock Europe as old and declining; the next - like at #MSC2026 - they charm us, fearing we might obstruct their ambitions. Neither scorn nor flattery should distract Europe from its path to independence. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02...

It’s a great podcast, subscribe to it!

Made a bet that I would get monetised on YouTube by April so I need 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours until then. I've got 4,700 watch hours and 301 subscribers so I still need 699 more subscribers to get it done. If you have a YouTube account and you're into politics, help me win? Danke! 🙏

You go to the United States this can happen to you, too, my fellow Europeans.

This is huge. And my guess is that this doesn't lead to a two speed Europe but a mass bandwagon effect. If the Six agree others will almost all follow.

In meinem Beitrag habe ich hohe Hürden für einen Volksbefragung verlangt: sie muss schnell und geordnet verlaufen, kein Alt gegen jung, kein Abwälzen von Verantwortung, volle Unterstützung der Regierung. Trotzdem: besser wäre jetzt zu entscheiden. www.linkedin.com/posts/leopol...

Feels like Trump is pretty much unconditionally surrendering as support collapses

Now let’s do the same with those US social media poisoning our body politic… TikTok Strikes Deal for New U.S. Entity, Ending Long Legal Saga www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/t... let’s do the same with the Americans

Time to Ban Social Media for under 16 years and have all Social Media Companies operating in the EU owned by EU Companies and operating under EU laws: TikTok Strikes Deal for New U.S. Entity, Ending Long Legal Saga www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/t... #tiktok #socialmedia

I wonder how long it will take the media to catch on to the fact that ICE’s recruiting spree has effectively deputized every white supremacist hate group out there.

They don’t want Greenland. They want to end NATO, and Greenland is just a way to do it.

i have written this a few times now but the reason JD Vance spends all day posting is that they barely tolerate his presence in the white house and have locked him out of every decision of consequence. he is basically unemployed

Here's the thing. These guys have no sense of how to act in public order. And if they keep escalating in cities while diddy-bopping around foolishly, they are going to face some seriously violent consequences as the reality of numbers manifests.

Agents like this should be identified and their name and picture posted on a searchable web site with videos and content like this linked to their names

This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

⚠️ CENTCOM announces the US and unspecified “partner forces” have conducted “large-scale strikes” against ISIS in Syria tonight in response to the ISIS attack on US and Syrian forces in Palmyra that killed three Americans in December. They released footage of the strikes as part of the announcement.

Preventing the sharing of sexualised images of children is “censorship” according to Elon Musk. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Ok aber wo sind die Schritte, die wir ankündigen, um zu zeigen das wir es ernst meinen? Wo?!?!? orf.at/stories/3416...

So much winning. Please stop.

Per "internal documents written between 2023 and 2025 and viewed by The Washington Post... Instagram staffers considered the mandate to boost teen metrics their top goal last year," including "boosting their messaging activity... to set up an early pipeline for lifelong use of Meta’s platforms."

Xi Jinping trying to compensate for domestic economic and social stagnation through an export strategy based on hopes of endless expansion is not a sustainable political model

Geopolitics in 2026 will be the world beginning to grasp how weak a US leadership is that is good at campaigning but comically inept at governing and how fragile a Chinese leadership is that is good at power consolidation but blinkeredly bad at sustainable domestic stability

Most important is that Ukraine gets the money. Huge deal for EU: 1) if you want to do EU foreign policy, you need EU resources and debt. #EUCO delivered 2) First time this EU debt was decided without unanimity as far as I can remember www.consilium.europa.eu/media/wqmkno...

A few quick thoughts about this morning's decision. Don't believe the spin from various Russians & others: it's a big deal. The EU has now unambiguously demonstrated that it is able and willing to provide the external financial support Ukraine needs, for as long and as much as it takes. (1/N)

At the 2025 European Forum Alpbach Defence Lab, we brought politicians, generals, industry, and experts together to answer one question: What must Europe do to win in Ukraine, become a respected global actor, and adapt to an age of unpeace? Their 20 key points are here:👇

MAGA, Russia, China, Brexiteers, autocracy inc., etc. - all fire on the EU because it is the most dangerous organization for them out there. A strong EU is the only path towards a Europe that protects itself and supports liberty and the rule of law around the globe.

We need to show the world we are a player by building an independent eur security structure and taking the fight to Putin (and sorry to say, Trump).

No single human, at any point in history, has ever had so much of the world unite in ridicule. An utter tragedy of man. (📸 AP)

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse. The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead. "Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender" Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue." 1/

Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

Great to hear Austrian foreign minister @beate.neos.eu demands unity, speed and strength from Europe and favors qualified majority voting in EU foreign and security policy. This is no technicality, without this change we will be torn apart by global tensions. And it can only be the beginning.

As you read about service members' response to being underbussed by Pete Hegseth, consider how this will play as Trump tries to start an illegal war with Venezuela.

Wenn das unsere Strategie ist um wieder wettbewerbsfähig zu werden, dann gute Nacht

Great article by @sbeverts.bsky.social. I recently visited Brussels after some time away, and unfortunately, I could feel the fatalism in the institutions. What it needs is a defence union, with people in charge who can actually deter the other big powers from doing as they can.
