Hannah Arendt: "Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty."

Friedrich Merz sagt: "Wir werden den Wohlstand nicht halten können mit 4-Tage-Woche und Work-Life-Balance."

Aber was, wenn 4-Tage-Woche und Work-Life-Balance für die meisten von uns der eigentliche Wohlstand sind?"

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

Russia’s full-scale invasion began 4 years ago. It began in winter, and so this winter is the 5th. And, for civilians, the worst. Russia launches missiles and drones at energy infrastructure to force Ukrainians to endure the freezing cold. Here's how you can help

Man könnte ein Gesetz formulieren: Je schneller, reflexhafter und gegen jede Expertenmeinung ein Innenminister nach einem Gewaltfall "härtere Strafen!" ruft, desto weniger taugt er für das Amt. Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) liefert dafür gerade den eindrucksvollen Beweis.

Dieser Überreichtum bewirkt, dass jedes Gefühl für die Wertigkeit menschlichen Lebens abhanden kommt. Neben all der Machtkonzentration etc. ist das für mich ein Hauptgrund Reichtum zu begrenzen.

Kyiv.
Morning after a massive russian attack.

The district where we live is mostly without heating or electricity.
According to the mayor, 1,170 residential high-rise buildings in Kyiv are without heat (we still have a minimal one, but no power).

-19 °C outside.
This is genocide.

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

Greetings from Kyiv,
where it’s -15 °C (-24…-26 expected tonight).

According to the mayor, about 1,000 high-rise buildings are still without heating.
Ours isn’t among them, the heat is low but at least it’s there.

This is our reality. Ukrainians freezing in their homes.

Saturday morning.
No power.

I’m reading that similar problems are reported across the city. Total blackout in Kyiv.
