This is another project I am part of. Bluesky for EU residents, with the data stored in the EU. Fully EU sovereign social network. Take a look if you're in the EU.

This is how to "make a deal" with a president with dementia. Also, #BuyFromEU #ChooseEurope #EUTechAutonomy

Trump is happy to let madness happen in the Middle-East. You know what will happen if this continues? Another wave of refugees. And they will go to Europe. And the US will not pay for it. As usual.

He will get them together and make them talk. Trump will need to accept Elon's terms, he does not have any card.

@aoc.bsky.social talks about "girl fighting". This is a well picked term. The ones having the biggest problem being compared with "girls" are the White House "boys". AOC is teasing them, this is the best moment and the right thing to do.

Gameplan - Tech Oligarchs will go all in to remove Trump - Elon will get out all the dirty laundry on Trump - Replacement is ready: Vance - Tech Oligarchs will have full control of the gov and the tech coup will keep moving forward

Yes, I am posting the Simpsons. Reality is becoming this absurd.

FAFO

Conveniently forgetting the Services Trade Deficit... where the deficit is clearly favourable to the US in value added fields like datacentres and other technology.

Prorussian Ukrainian killed in Madrid outside a school. Wasn't Russia paradise on earth? Why was he living in Spain then? Why aren't we sending this people back to their beloved land?

Fidias is a Musk simp, a Russian asset, and an enemy of Europe. @caolanrob.bsky.social

A prankster youtuber is the savior of the decadent Europe, apparently.

Freude rings me often

6 months ago, this was considered a conspiracy. Yet, all the pieces were visible if you took a step back. Now we are getting closer to a full confirmation. US Big Take wants to take over the world and replacing democracies with corporations. Trump is the first CEO. Your voice will be irrelevant. 1/2

This is how true strategic autonomy looks like. This is also why Macron called out Trump's lies in the White House without blinking an eye. Plenty of work to do, but France is the strong card in a democratic Europe.

Great news. I hope this is a signal of Starmer looking towards Europe while the talk distracts Trump. Watch what they do, not what they say.

And Article 5 won't be there. NATO is a walking corpse.

Adolf, STOP PLZ!

1/5 The US-EU split is inevitable. Trump's retaliatory plans against allies are just the latest nail in the coffin of transatlantic relations. Europe must forge its own path, and fast.

Starmer & EU Commission president are expected to announce a defence & security pact & continuation of current fishing access for EU states. The hope is for a closer economic deal in future: energy co-operation, removal of trade barriers in food & agricultural products. Maybe a youth mobility scheme

🔥 @ninajankowicz.com to the European Parliament: "Before I describe the details of Russia's recent online influence campaigns, I would like to call upon you to stand firm against another autocracy: The United States of America."

Follow Eurobot if you care about EU news! @eurobot.bsky.social

So I'm setting up an EU news posting bot here on bluesky as well at the moment. If you're unfamiliar with Forum Gotterfunken and the EU news cycle, check this infograph out. I'll explain it below.

"Yes, it is Europe, from the Atlantic to the Urals, it is the whole of Europe, that will decide the destiny of the world." - Charles de Gaulle, November 1959

Bukele is about to run El Salvador's economy with "human-right violation at scale".

"It's a coup. [...] We cannot fight it if we cannot see it, and we cannot see it if we do not name it." @carolecadwalla.bsky.social at TED Talks. 17 minutes you must watch. Americans are burning daylight. Organize, and fight for your rights against the Tech Oligarchs.

Iceland added to the list of countries the EU is striving for a Security and Defence Partnership:

🧵worth reading

Hard to blame any European.

Ireland needs to consider a more active role in EU Defence.

The times we live in call for closer cooperation in defense. I'd rather have had that than join NATO, although I wasn't against joining it either. The EU might also need a shared foreign policy. It's constantly being berated for not having a coherent geostrategic plan. Of course it hasn't!

🧵1/5 The EU cannot be too close to China. We need strategic autonomy, and with the US being unpredictable, we must forge closer ties with democratic and reliable partners.

Vibe Governance

The patients are running the asylum.

While Pedro Sánchez tours China, Andalusia faces a staggering 15% unemployment rate. Instead of courting frienemies, Sánchez should prioritize investing in the EU defence industry, creating high-value jobs. Andalusia, with its strategic ports and skilled workforce, could boost the EU security.

@sn0r.bsky.social "there's a subreddit called redneckengineering, and it reminds me of this [U.S.] administration"

🧵 In response to Trump's tariffs, the EU must act decisively yet cautiously. A strong, measured approach is crucial to safeguard European interests and avoid escalation. 1/5

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, asked for comment on the Musk-Navarro spat at the daily press briefing, replied with a smile: "Boys will be boys, and we will let their public sparring continue." Source: @axios.com

"[...] frozen funds of the oligarchs and the Russian Central Bank to finance the reconstruction of Ukraine and strengthen our security [...] better taxation of the great fortunes and super-profits of multinationals [...] make it possible to finance our defence without increasing the public debt."

Incoming “pay or we withdraw from NATO”

Russian interference in EU democratic processes is a clear and present danger. We must take this threat seriously and actively work to stop foreign agents. Our Union's integrity and sovereignty depend on our vigilance and action against hybrid warfare.

Yes, there is a lot of fair criticism in regards to German & French position towards Russia, and for long time more reluctant support for Ukraine. I'd argue we need to move on from both - NCEE criticism of European strategic autonomy, and DE&FR naivety towards Russia.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Dictators ignore rights. And will ignore yours as soon as its convenient to ignore them. if you currently support they, it is irrelevant.

It’s time from move out of denial and take steps forward in the grief stages.
