One thing I do regret about 2025 is how many nonsense meetings I had to sit through about how China is becoming the world's "green" super power. Two-thirds of electricity generation in China is from thermal power plants (blue). That's coal. Give me a break.

NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![The Government asked this Court to stay the District Court's order. After the response and reply were filed, JUSTICE BARRETT referred the application to the Court. We directed the parties to file supplemental letter briefs on an issue that the District Court had addressed but the parties' initial briefs had not: the meaning of the term "regular forces" in §12406(3). In its supplemental brief, the Government argues that the term refers to civilian law enforcement officers, such as those employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Federal Protective Service.
Respondents, echoing the District Court, maintain that the term refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary.
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under §12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress."
18 U. S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6h7b2i6ttw3l4t7pvbvxdith/bafkreiftbhzwvn3vgwhqsi7k2paizvdw4t26ailljvovso3chqupnmj364@jpeg)

Wie war 2025 für die Ukraine? Extrem schwer, aber nicht hoffnungslos. Mein Beitrag für @ntvde.bsky.social dazu, mit dem Ausblick auf 2026 in vielen Bereichen (und ja, um Donald Trump geht es tatsächlich auch, aber nicht primär, keine Sorge). www.n-tv.de/politik/In-d...
In der Ukraine ist Trump mittlerweile so beliebt wie Putin
Über die Weihnachtsfeiertage soll es in der Ukraine kalt werden - auch deshalb dürfte Russland seine Angriffe verstärkt haben. Zugleich geht es Putin darum, die Unzufriedenheit im Land zu befeuern.

In late 2021, there were a lot of smart people using their sound judgment to say "Russia isn't going to invade Ukraine, they can't conquer it all before the West mobilises, and the costs will be too high. Putin isn't that crazy". Those were well-founded assessments, and Russia invaded anyway.
I'm saying that if Russia has struggled to invade eastern Ukraine then it is not going to get anywhere in Poland, is it?
Your second point is bizarre. Zelensky's opponent was an anti-Russian hardliner? In 2010, eastern Ukraine voted overwhelmingly for Viktor Yanukovych.
