🤚😡‼️| Mensaje de #Trump al primer ministro de Noruega, Jonas Gahr Stoere:

👉 "Querido Jonas: Considerando que su país decidió NO DARME el Premio Nobel de la Paz por haber detenido 8 Guerras, YA NO SIENTO LA OBLIGACIÓN DE PENSAR PURAMENTE EN LA PAZ (...)".

¿Efecto del aumento del salario mínimo? Todo positivo: salarios, igual empleo, permanencia en el empleo, más ingresos para trabajadores de bajos ingresos.
New QJE for the minimum wage literature uses IRS data to study effects on small and medium size businesses. The effects seem…very good

🌴 Turismo en máximos en zonas frágiles

Canarias, Baleares y la costa mediterránea registran subidas constantes de pasajeros. Regiones muy visitadas… y también especialmente vulnerables a la escasez de agua y al estrés energético.
Nunca hubo tanto avión volando en España: récord histórico en 2025 con más de 321 millones de pasajeros - Climática, el medio especializado en clima y biodiversidad
La red aeroportuaria española ha crecido un 3,9% en pasajeros, un 4,1% en movimientos y un 7,2% en mercancías este 2025, tercer año más caluroso desde que hay registros. Estas cifras chocan con los objetivos de emisiones del sector y el Gobierno.

NEW: Coal-fired power generation fell in both China and India in 2025, for the first time since 1973. The drop came after record clean energy additions in both countries, and was the first time that clean energy was a major driver of falling coal power use.

Europe has tools at its disposal - including an eyewatering USD 2.4 trillion of European money invested in US stock markets via open-ended equity funds - that it could deploy as leverage in a Europe first strategy against US threats.

“What is well known and is a legitimate issue of concern is that policymakers, at least in the US and UK, are currently focused on reducing rather than increasing banking sector capital requirements.“

🌍 España se acerca a Europa: los vehículos electrificados ya suponen casi el 20% del mercado, ocho puntos más que en 2024 y cada vez más cerca de la media europea (26%).

Lo analiza @actisandres.bsky.social
El ocaso de los coches a combustión ya está aquí - Climática, el medio especializado en clima y biodiversidad
Las matriculaciones de 2025 en España confirman el derrumbe de los motores diésel y gasolina, que pierden casi 90 mil ventas en la comparación interanual. Los híbridos siguen creciendo –una señal del cambio de tecnología en el mercado nacional– y los eléctricos puros se disparan con un incremento del 77%.

Pues Trump tiene un preciado aliado en el estado español: Repsol. Connivencia con el agresor y miles de millones que deberían ir a otro tipo de inversiones alejadas de los combustibles fósiles.
Repsol dice a Trump que quiere "invertir con fuerza" en Venezuela y triplicar la producción
El consejero delegado de Repsol le ha trasladado al presidente de EEUU que la compañía está lista para triplicar la producción de crudo en el país en los próximos años después de que Trump haya asegur...

Iran is living massive protests against the dictatorship. They are being repressed through killings, beatings and the shutting of the whole internet. This follows already de massive and continuous courage of women fighting for their rights. All the support to Iran’s people!

Gopinath doesn't give a source for this number, but it's consistent with other evidence. It's a real puzzle why more tariff costs havne't been passed on, but the fact that they haven't been suggests that the net effect is more likely to be deflationary than inflationary. www.ft.com/content/9c82...

Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet.
Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.

Given supply dynamics and trajectories, I think control of Venezuela's actual oil is less relevant than the message sent to other countries hosting US oil majors. If national govts threaten their operations by demanding remediation/payment of liabilities, they now have to contemplate invasion.

Why Venezuela?

Oil.

Why now?

The affordability crisis, the end of the fracking revolution, and the threat of Chinese energy independence.

Si nos quedamos sólo en el "es por las reservas de petróleo" nos perdemos lo que hay detrás: con quién y cómo estaba negociando Venezuela ese petróleo.

It seems that in the recent military and imperialist intervention we are in the INVERSE of the entanglement between oil-politics-capitalism that Mitchell explains. It is not the oil companies that have motivated the president to intervene to maintain profits, as in the XXth century.

it’s about oil and yet from an energy markets perspective that doesn’t make much sense, unless we assume USG all but seizes control of US oil companies. Karthik Sankaran outlines the doesn’t-make-sense reasons here: responsiblestatecraft.org/venezuela-oil/

Last call for Europe for the next 10 years: we need a strong EU that is energetically and militarily independent from the US, that brings internal peace through a strong welfare state and communitarian networks, and that curbs inequality and division along ethnic and wealth lines.
