Blijft bijzonder hoe @locuta.bsky.social beter overzicht geeft van wat er in VS gaande is dan alle Nederlandse media bij elkaar. Simpelweg door elke dag alle gekkigheden te noemen. Natuurlijk melden veel media onderdelen ook en krijg je soms mooie analyses erbij, maar dit is minstens zo indringend.

Today’s court order is a step in the right direction, but people’s ability to feed their families never should have been jeopardized in the first place.

I honestly wonder if these pics of the White House literally being torn apart will have more of an impact on the electorate than months of reporting on the same at USAID, State Dept, DOJ, or Dept of Ed.

Still appalled at how paltry and terrible the NYT coverage of the protests were and how nobody there feels any responsibility to address the criticism. This was not something that caught them off guard. This was many levels of decisions.

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

The message should not be that political violence is bad because it targeted a good guy who was “practicing politics the right way” (which Kirk definitely was not). Political violence is bad because it inherently corrodes the democratic polity, because it makes democracy impossible.

Russia must immediately stop its campaign of indiscriminate attacks. Targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure is a war crime.

The new EU-US trade deal reflects how misguided attempts by Brussels to appease the Trump administration run counter to the EU’s environmental responsibility and undermine the bloc’s climate action.

The scientific verdict is in.

Global warming made this summer's wildfires in Turkey, Greece and Cyprus 10 times more likely and 22% more intense. Without the climate crisis, such intense wildfires would be a once-in-a-century occurrence.

Last term - just a year ago! - a lot of my Republican colleagues were making a lot of noise about the pernicious influence of foreign "state owned enterprises". And here we are now.

The CDC shooting didn’t even really register in the news and the details are absolutely insane
First the terrorist tried to enter campus in a car filled with guns. When he wasn’t allowed past the gates, he started firing from a CVS drugstore across the street. From a semi-automatic weapon, 500 shots is a lot. He was at it for a long time.

Here are the weapons & shell casings he left behind.
