Darf ich mir einen Hinweis erlauben. Ich trage ungefähr 0,000000001% zum gesamten Steuervolumen von Deutschland bei. Selbst wenn ich morgen keine Steuern mehr zahle würde, würde keine einzige Schule weniger gebaut, würde keine einzige Straße weniger saniert werden.

Banned for having a simple photo of the Vice President...
JD Vance made his first big speech all about the need for European free speech, and now a Norwegian is banned from America because of this pic.

DT’s embarrassing performance just made him a strong contender to win the Neville Chamberlain Peace Prize, for appeasing in face of a tyrant’s unprovoked aggression.

perhaps Bill Clinton, George W Bush, Barack Obama, & Joe Biden could be troubled to interrupt their retirements, explain clearly to the American people what is happening, and call on them to try to save the Republic -- preferably before he starts WWIII, a Great Depression, & shooting protesters

Die FDP leugnete beharrlich, auf einen »D-Day« hingearbeitet zu haben. Doch unter dem Druck von Presseanfragen hat sie nun den Plan zum Ampelbruch veröffentlicht – mitsamt der kruden Rhetorik. Wer soll dieser Partei noch glauben?

After 6 months of fieldwork in Bougainville, I'm ready to embark on leg 1 of my #NoFly journey to Germany. Travelling by ship,train,coach over 27,000km, I'll emit ~535kg of CO2, 10 times less than flying. This decision cost me my job, but I still think it was the right thing to do. 1/
