Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

The BBC is apologising for its Panorama edit. It shouldn’t. First, the narrative is true: Donald Trump *did* incite the Capitol riot. Second, the apology won’t appease those attacking it. So why not at least stand for something?

Wrote this on it earlier this week:

The BBC was right about the Capitol riots. In a sane world, Trump would be in jail
The US President faced impeachment over the violence, and in a world where Republicans had more courage, he would have been found guilty

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President.

Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty.

Endless projection. I hate him.

I have an alt account with ~200 Ukrainian mutuals so I asked how they're staying warm. Some have central heat via gas boiler but the ones that don't are using sweaters and blankets, hot water bottles wrapped in towels. One answered that they use gas stoves (😬). Temps in the 40s lately (3-9 C).
Yeah so several major Ukrainian cities are in a complete blackout right now. 0 generation from thermal plants and 0 idea when the power will be back. Just please don’t forget us

Meanwhile, Trump won’t renew subsides for American healthcare.

Die Horrorzahlen, die manche Lobbyisten bzgl Kosten der Wärmewende in den Raum strllten, waren schon sehr absurd falsch. Als ich das vor ca 2 Jahren öffentlich äußerte, wurde ich erst abgemahnt und anschließend verklagt. Ich habe mich nicht mundtot machen lassen. Das Gericht hat die Klage abgewiesen

The European Commission has banned the issuance of multi-entry Schengen visas to Russian citizens. From now on, they’ll need to apply for a new single-entry visa each time they travel to the EU, a move aimed at tightening security checks and minimizing risks across Europe.

Now in detailed Black and White: The #Trump administration is blackmailing other countries to actively destroy the environment at the behest of the US oil industry. There is no sugarcoating it.

Evil seems a fitting adjective.

Trump said we were “winning” the trade war with China. Then China threatened to cut off rare earth minerals—and suddenly we backed down. Americans are paying higher prices, no new jobs have been created, and China walked away stronger.
