Tesla’s shares dropped 14% on Thursday in New York, the stock’s biggest decline since March 10, as Elon Musk and Donald Trump feud devolved into a public war. The rout erased about $150 billion from the electric-vehicle maker’s market value

Interesting results from latest Eurobarometer survey.

52% of 🇪🇺citizens trust the EU, compared to 37% who trust their national government.

62% say they're optimistic about the EU's future, compared to 38% of Americans optimistic for 🇺🇸future (in 2023).

Merz announced all range restrictions on military aid to Ukraine are lifted. 🇺🇦 can hit any military target in Russia with 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪 long-range missiles.
While not a Taurus confirmation, this announcement would be quite pointless coming from a 🇩🇪 chancellor if 🇩🇪 wasn’t going to send long-range missiles 👀

APOLLO: “It’s been nearly two weeks since the China/US trade deal, but container traffic from China to the US hasn’t shown a strong rebound. .. Are 30% tariffs on China still too high? Or are US companies simply waiting to see if tariffs will drop further before ramping up shipments?”

***LEGALLY BLONDE LIVE-TWEET: THE RULES***

This lecture explores the cinematic classic 'Legally Blonde' through the lens of English and Welsh law.

Contributions and observations are welcome, but I'm perfectly prepared to tweet the entire film to a wall of embarrassed silence.

Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

- EU-US trade balance is much more... balanced when including services trade
- US records trade deficit with the EU for goods, but it posts a huge surplus for services
- Data highlight EU leverage in services trade through steps targeting access of US tech platforms to EU market [9/10]

The galaxy far, far away is huge.

In 3 BBY (3 years before the Battle of Yavin), the same year as this week's Andor story arc, Leia became Princess of Alderaan, before delivering Sphyrna-class Hammerhead corvettes to a Rebel faction. Maul is alive. Ahsoka meets Vader. The TIE Interceptor appears.

In der Schweiz wurden jetzt erstmalig Solaranlagen auf Gleise verlegt. 3 Jahre wird die Technik jetzt getestet, um bei Erfolg vllt. auf die 5000km Schienen auszuweiten. Ca. 250.000 Haushalte kann man so mit PV-Strom versorgen. Ein tolles Projekt das hoffentl. auch in 🇩🇪 großflächig zum Einsatz kommt❤️
