Don't say you weren't warned. Many, if not all, EU member states contract Palantir to run their most sensitive and critical systems in the areas of security, police and health care. While national governments publicly lash out at Musk, they quietly do business with Thiel. Palantir is a Trojan horse

If grovelling to Trump is meant to buy us time to end our dependency on the US, you’d expect feverish activity in Europe to rapidly become autonomous. So has Europe made good use of the time it has bought with self-humiliation? It has not. My blog:

While everyone is distracted by Circus Trump, European countries let his far-right sponsor and mentor of JD Vance in via the backdoor. No European government should work with Palantir. None.

A united Europe is a Europe that can take decisions by majority and speak with a single voice. Not a fairy-land where all government leaders miraculously hold identical opinions. In other words: unity can be achieved by abolishing vetoes, not by "hopes and prayers".

Europe sucking up to Trump as a strategy to buy time might be defendable. But only if that time is being used to make Europe independent and strong. But in the past twelve months there have been exactly zero efforts for a stronger, more integrated Europe. So the sucking up is a waste of time.

Trump’s appointees in the judiciary, military leadership loyally carrying out Trump’s illegal orders, ICE, the damage done by USAID cuts and DEI reversal: even if (big if) a model democrat will be elected president in 2028, (s)he cannot undo the damage. Europe has to stop dreaming and grow up. Fast.

Europeans cling to the idea that by 2028 latest, things will go back to normal. They will not. Much of the Trump devastation is irreversible. Ask Poland how hard it is to restore the democratic rule of law after 8 years of PiS rule (amateurs in comparison). State capture takes decades to undo.
