The right tone from Merz.

Blimey. Asked about Trump, Merz says he’s in close contact with European leaders about becoming “independent” from US (and confesses “I never thought I’d say that on TV show”). Casts doubt on value of NATO summit in June.
This from a die-hard Atlanticist. Things are moving fast.

This is about as disturbing as it gets. When Trump says he plans to be a dictator, there’s no reason not to believe him.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it.

Imagine the immaturity and cruelty that goes into a post like this. Zelenskyy has valiantly led a nation brutally and criminally assaulted by Putin and that has suffered tragic losses and destruction. And you think it’s cute to refer to denigrate him as a child. This a person with no soul.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.
