Tribune editorial: “The level of suspicion some senators have toward members of the public — not just journalists — who want to know what the government who rules them, which they pay for, is up to is enough to make a reasonable person wonder just what they are trying to hide.”

Was schon ein bisschen was über Österreich aussagt:

Eine von drei Personen meint tendenziell, man kann kein "guter Österreicher" oder "gute Österreicherin" sein, wenn man "Österreich kritisiert"

(Unter Menschen mit rechtsextremen Einstellungen sagt das sogar jede:r Zweite)

Risks of Tariffs on Long-Term Dollar Strength

1/ Retaliatory tariffs hurt U.S. exports, reducing demand for dollars globally. This weakens the trade balance and offsets gains from tariffs. #TradeWars #DollarStrength

Tariffs as hidden taxes: they raise consumer prices, increase costs for businesses, and erode purchasing power. They fuel inflation, distort markets, risk trade retaliation, and hurt global supply chains, impacting households, jobs, and slowing economic growth worldwide.

#DANA. Le gouvernement PP (droite dure) du Pays Valencien refuse l'aide des pompiers de la Catalogne. Certains critiquent ce refus car la raison serait parce que la Catalogne est gouvernée par la gauche. Ou pour ne pas assimiler les Valenciens aux Catalans.

L'any 2006, València va ser escenari de l'accident de metro més greu en la història d'Espanya. Un tren de Metrovalència va descarrilar, resultant 43 morts. Al 2020, quatre exdirectius de FGV van reconèixer la seva responsabilitat i van acceptar una condemna de 2 anys de presó. Ara, més i pitjor? PP?

When a cat named Rayne Beau dashed into the woods of Yellowstone National Park during a camping trip in June, his owners thought they’d never see him again. But almost two months later, the Siamese cat was found more than 800 miles away.

Drummond sat the Chief Engineer's exam SIX YEARS in a row. Was marked as failed every time.

In 1936, the Board of Trade were forced to admit they were deliberately failing her because she was a woman. Which meant failing EVERYONE who sat the exam with her to cover it up, as her scores were too high
I'm assuming people have you covered by now BUT a noteworthy example of getting an absurd level of performance out of a ship would be Victoria Drummond getting 12.5 knots out of a dog of a ship whose previous best was just 9.
