I'm getting tired of this President using his platform to verbally abuse and demean people in our country just because he can.
Hey dickhead, try doing your job better instead of focusing on all the 1980s put-downs.

🇨🇭 Eurovision 2024 winner Nemo will be sending their trophy back to the EBU.
"Eurovision says it stands for unity, inclusion, and dignity for all. [...] But Israel's continued participation [...] shows a clear conflict between those ideals and the decisions made by the EBU."

Go cover the financial fallout that will happen from the withdrawals then + the EBU's utterly irresponsible financial strategy over the last few years
According to Gabe, Roland Weissmann (🇦🇹 ORF) and Katja Wildermuth (🇩🇪 BR) used their positions on the EBU Executive Board to force any vote on Israel's participation to be conditional on the new voting regulations failing. They have a lot to answer for. #Eurovision

The lack of self awareness is so embarrassing and no one will fall for your bullshit anyway, not even casuals
🇦🇹 ORF General Director Roland Weißmann said in an Ö1 interview that the #Eurovision 2026 shows will "in no way suffer" as a result of yesterday's General Assembly vote.
It would be a "certain financial burden" if several broadcasters withdrew, however ORF are "well-budgeted".

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

The whole exurban reactionary swinger takeover of the GOP is wild
I suspect we are, probably for our own mental health, underestimating the degree to which the Trump administration is dominated by the worst swingers imaginable
Call me old fashioned, but aren’t both parts of this relationship currently, uh, married to other people?

I’ve had a lot of fun in my life telling Youths who were too young to remember it about the time Dick Cheney shot his friend in the face, which might be a fun treat for you too today if you know any teenagers
the part where the guy who got shot had to apologize to Cheney is the 2000s in a nutshell

I'd love to be excited about all the country returns but it feels so blatantly obvious that the EBU wants them back to divert attention away from Israel, where tf was this effort in bringing Eastern Europe back in the past

Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today:
1. Your countries all suck.
2. None of you know what you are doing.
3. The US is better at everything.
4. All because of me.
5. I’m right about everything.
6. You should listen to me & do what I say.
7. And give me lots of awards.

For over 3 years russian occupiers have closed off the city. war crimes are being covered up, evidence erased.

Per Axios, Trump is no longer sure of his ability to influence Putin.
Per Reuters, European leaders are shocked by Trump’s reaction to the Russian drones over Poland
and NATO members are questioning Trump’s readiness to defend them in the event of a real attack by Putin.

So now the argument is over which of the British political parties can deport people more efficiently. The Overton window has disappeared over the (rightward) horizon.
