Als je niet durft te demonstreren uit angst voor geweld van fascisten, moeten jouw alarm bellen afgaan. is het misschien juist tijd de straat op te gaan

Instead of retaliation against #Trump with new #tariffs
now might be the moment that governments stop respecting perverted #US patent and copyright monopolies, and e.g. repeal so called “anticircumvention laws” see:

Trumps new #tariff policy made me realize that there is no need for me to buy Kellogg products any more.

To skip this highly processed (junk)food is healthier anyway ! 😀👍

Sad to see how the #USA slides down the gutter. Here - don't laugh- how they "calculate" the new import #tariffs

If you want to know where a product is from you can look at the barcode. The first 3 digits say in which country the code was registered.
For the #USA are reserved 100 – 139.
000 – 019 and 060 – 099 are used as well for US as Canada so you can’t see from which of the two

#Goodnews: Looks like JD #Vance just spared the US taxpayer a lot of money

Since his maiden speech at the Munich Security Conference today made it clear that there will be no need to invite him for such events in the future.

Thanks. I also wouldn't be surprice if the global shift in methan production to fracking had an influence.
The “shale revolution”.
In less than two decades, shale oil & gas have gone from negligible to major players accounting for 66% of crude oil / 79% of dry natural gas production in 2022.

The US Congress Research Office just published an Overview of U.S. Tariff Policy
crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/...
In it they also adress the “Presidential Discretionary Authority over Tariff Rates”
Would you/anybody know which of the legal means Trump intends to use ?

It should not be forgotten that any potential conflict of interest screening of Elon #Musk and #DOGE might lead to obvious problems related to #NOAA and its mandate to regulate commercial use of space

ask Wikipedia ;-)
As far as I know the phrase of "Business Oiligarch" indeed was developed in studies exclusively looking at the former USSR. But the "definition" would also cover US business leaders.

But the Koch Brothers are neither Bezos or Musk and they are no Potanin or Abramovitsj

Introduction of his personal “cryptocurrency” on 17th Jan and resulting problems still get totally ignored
