Diversity is a no-no word in today's American government. Strange. Look at the teams at the Super Bowl. They are not the same. Some are black, some are white, some are very good runners, and some are good defenders. They are all specialists with a designed role.

Since the US has declared that they want European institutions and cooperation destroyed, it is probably best not to hold vast amounts of US bonds.
This can be easily solved by telling the banks that they cannot count US bonds as security holdings.

That was extremly generous. Sweden with a population of 11 million people are only donating $4 billions a year for 2026 and 2027 in military aid. Add to this donations for civil use ($1 billion) and donations via the EU.
Shame on you!

There is a lot of talk of giving the Nobel Peace Prize to Donald Trump.
Completely ridiculous idea.
Why not give the prize to USAID, who has been a major contributor to struggling people all over the world?

There's a heatwave coming in the east of the USA. Expect a lot of air conditioning running. Expect the electricity grid to break down.
Solar panels could have helped. But Trump has banned them.
