Vladimir Putin should make actual concessions before Europeans pick up the phone to re-engage, says Kaja Kallas.
"I don't think there is anything that we can offer to Russia on top of what they already get in their understanding with the Americans."

So does Germany. 3 states are using Palantir, the rest declines to implement it, which has the result that police in Germany doesnt work over state lines, every state has still their own system.
We urgently need a parliamentary debate on Palantir. Please sign this & share with your network. Via @the-citizens.bsky.social & @change.org.

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

The arrests of Afghanis began after the shooting of National Guard members in Washington D.C. All were in the country legally.
