Paul Krugman points out that Republicans don't want to help people in need. Let's face it. A lot of Republicans are selfish, malignant narcissists. The world would be better off without them.

This fight in Congress is starting to resemble lucha libre where both wrestlers break their necks trying to fake a pile driver.

This is York Cottage, the modest future quarters poor former prince Andrew after his public disgrace. Still, better than sleeping under a bridge like some less privileged in the UK or the States.

The dark green belt in semi circle along the coast and across the South is the area needing food assistance. This is the slave belt. Our legacy of inhumanity that lives on 150 years after slavery ended here.

Heather Cox Richardson posts a list of people and companies donating to Trump's fascist hall of mirrors. Boycott them as you can. Shun them as you can.

The Berlin newsletter, The Pioneer, normally US-friendly, has been hitting Trump. Today they suggest he will default on interest payments.

ICE cuffing a 6-year-old girl is reported to be a deep fake. Agents have taken children for their own protection after parents were detained.

Stock in a major German armaments firm goes through the roof as Trump pulls back from NATO.

Another reason to like Portland Airport. We won't have to listen to Kristi Noem spout her fascist bullshit at TSA. Sad that the states have to enforce a federal law like the Hatch Act when the president and his minions violate it.

An interesting graphic showing growth in Germany around the major cities and decline in housing and population in much of the eastern lands.

French member of the European parliament receives death threats after opposing a moment of silence for the death of Charlie Kirk. Right wing Christian nationalist nutters are a threat in all countries, not just the States.

Some details on the drones I got from European news sources: the drones are of Iranian origin and came from Belarus, which is a staunch ally of Putin and located on the Polish border.

Still working on reading Proust, but it's slow going with all the other things I'm reading.

Max Liebermann’s Thomas Mann portrait.

Mann on Liebermann: “In Liebermann bewundere ich Berlin.”

Here we have a view of Thomas Mann’s modest country cottage in the Bavarian town of Bad Tölz. I used to ride the train past this town frequently, but, sadly, never stopped to look around.
