This action of extortion against NATO allies crosses the Rubicon in terms of US relations with Europe. The threat destabilizes NATO and will cause long run damage to the United States economy.

Die USA belegen jetzt Leute, die sich gegen Hass im Netz einsetzen, mit Einreiseverbot. Das ist kein westlich-demokratischer Rechtsstaat mehr. Ich wünsche mir, dass das auch von PolitikerInnen in Europa so ausgesprochen wird.

This is not normal. Nothing about this is normal.
Krass: Die US-Regierung hat Sanktionen gegen Anna-Lena von Hodenberg und Josephine Ballon von @hateaid.org erlassen, dazu trifft es auch den früheren EU-Kommissar Thierry Breton, weil "These radical activists and weaponized NGOs have advanced censorship crackdowns by foreign states". Einreiseverbot

Twitter now displays where accounts are from and it has confirmed that too many of the political accounts are out of country bots.

Why are folks still there? To argue with bots? A waste of precious time while enriching the richest man on Earth.

CSWEP strongly condemns Larry Summers’ behavior as revealed in the email correspondence with the late Jeffrey Epstein. While abuse of power in the economics profession is not new, rarely has the intent behind such abuse been so clearly stated.

EXKLUSIV | Die BSW-Europaabgeordneten Michael von der Schulenburg und Ruth Firmenich haben Kontakte ins Einflussnetzwerk von Medwedtschuk geknüpft, das auch die Sotschi-Konferenz organisiert.

Gemeinsam verbrachte man einen "unvergesslichen Abend" im Bolschoi-Theater. Mit @larswienand.bsky.social
Erstmals konkrete Hinweise: Wagenknechts Kanal zum Kreml
Das BSW könnte in den Sog der "Voice of Europe"-Affäre geraten: Europaabgeordnete pflegen Kontakte zu Strippenziehern des russischen Schmiergeldnetzwerks.
