Authoritarian lying about violent, murderous suppression of citizens is much more difficult in the age of the smartphone - especially in a country like America where government cannot, yet, turn off the internet.

We are Christopher Isherwood, watching the scenes in the Berlin street below from our apartment window above.
There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.

Trump wants to increase military spending by 50% - half a trillion dollars - through magic economics.

I really wish people in Europe would wise up to the fact that the pushback against the invasion of Greenland is happening as much in Minneapolis as in Brussels.

There is a lot of talk about what Europeans will do if Trump follows though on his illegal plans towards Denmark. But I would like to know what Americans are expected to do

Harassing, humiliating, punching, and getting to shoot people (of color) is why people join ICE. It's a feature not a bug.

New, from me: The Trump administration isn’t just using social media to shape a narrative. They view the world through a social media lens in a way that is plausibly corrupting their judgment and undermining their performance.

Trump har som hevet Monroe Doktrinen ned fra hylden og justeret den til 2026. Det gav mig muligheden for at tale om amerikansk historie hos TV Avisen, hvilket man som historiker naturligvis kun kan glæde sig over. Desværre overskygges glæden af de alvorlige omstændigheder.

I wanted to see how many friends the President of Peace has made during his first and second term, so I made a map of countries he has threatened both economically and militarily, banned citizens from, and bombed.
Some things are up for discussion, so a bit on methodology below.

It’s not by chance that far-right authoritarians want to ban gender studies (and generally erase any recognition of how gender shapes societies and power relations).
Because once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

There’s a lot of talk about NATO’s Article 5, and what it would mean if one NATO country attacked another.
There’s not nearly enough attention being paid to Article 42.7 of the Treaty of Lisbon, and what happens if an EU member state is attacked.

It's important to understand that Greenland is not just part of Denmark, but has it's own domestic politics. The current crisis have meant that the Greenlandic government, Naalakkersuisut, have gained greater autonomy and room for maneuver.

One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.
