I'm sure if we just give that Hitler fellow the Sudetenland, we'll have peace for our time.

Wat een stupide kop (column zelf prima)

Trump always responds in this sort of asinine quasi-ominous way to questions of this sort, and the press should stop asking them and giving him an opportunity to bullshit everyone

Multi-layered “look what you made me do” lie. Because Norway didn’t give a him prize (it doesn’t decide winners) for ending wars (he didn’t end) the US won’t be peaceful anymore (bombing multiple countries) and will take Greenland (part of Denmark, not Norway) to stop Russia (it’d help Russia).

Let this radicalize you.

this is what it has come to for Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities

This is 100% correct and the EU should do it immediately. The USA will break if a bunch of entitled Americans suddenly can’t book get-aways in Paris.

In Nederland zijn in het afgelopen verkiezingsjaar elf Quote 500-leden verantwoordelijk voor 20 procent van alle donaties aan politieke partijen, waarvan 86 procent naar centrum- of rechtse partijen ging. www.rtl.nl/nieuws/binne...

I'm not saying Trump is a Russian asset, just that I can't think of anything he'd be doing differently if he were.

Maybe start declaring people like Bessent persona non grata. Performative, sure, but that's the sign o' the times.

They all casually use the language of abusers.

Heather Cox Richardson @hcrichardson.bsky.social suggests that Donald Trump's "Board of Peace" is designed to be a competitor to the United Nations. Different way to think about it. Donny as World Emperor.

thread about X’s new TOS. tldr is musk can now sue users for any reason in a TX court he basically owns, so he’ll almost certainly win. and this is a platform politicians and journalists largely refuse to leave.

Joint statement of the 8 European countries tariffed yesterday by Trump. Neither backing down nor escalating themselves (yet). Good to see the UK there with its EU partners:

🇩🇰🇺🇸 Leaked Danish defense documents reveal that the US quietly sought sensitive information on military installations, ports, and airbases in Greenland without informing Copenhagen, - Berlingske

Kijken jullie allemaal goed mee? Ze moeten zo snel mogelijk terug naar hun baasjes!

Worth reading. EU member states are preparing once again to meet Trump’s agressive provocations with unilateral concessions. I think the politicians involved underestimate how much ordinary European voters have had enough of this weakness dressed up as pragmatism: www.politico.eu/article/hit-...

Ach, voorheen de WaPo. Kop en lead kritiekloos geciteerd, afgerond met Hegseth voor z'n performatieve Department of War-bordje.

So you want to hit America hard because this is the only way to stop Trump from wrecking Europe? Do read this awesome, superbly argued and illuminating piece on 'anticircumvention' by Cory Doctorow. Europe could screw the US so hard, it's encouraging: pluralistic.net/2026/01/01/3...

I can't repeat this enough.

In Zweden hebben ze wel een regering.

When people talk about reasons to leave X, the fact that the owner is a mass murderer doesn't get mentioned enough. The Grok porn stuff is foul. The naked white nationalism is foul. This is worse.

what the hell is this revisionist nonsense? This *did not happen*—except in the minds of the far-right. You're buying their bad faith bullshit. MAGA called for and now is building a white ethnostate b/c *they are white nationalists*. That's what they do. FFS
