A view from Europe
@viewfromeurope.bsky.social
In defence of Europe, our people, cultures and values. Against Putin, Trump, and lapdogs like Farage and Orbán.
Deutsche Bank has been through this movie before, particularly for helping Trump launder Russian money and get himself out of the hole he dug for himself with multiple casino bankruptcies.

(ps Aren't casinos supposed to be licences to print money? Only Trump could screw it up.)

Thiel spends most of his time now lecturing about the Antichrist, whatever that is.
He also chairs Palantir.
Teaming up with Palantir can't be a good idea.

There are few politicians as brave as Ilhan Omar.

Can you imagine Trump, Vance, Miller or Hegseth reacting this way?

Palantir, Peter Thiel's data company that helps ICE target people, landed big contracts from the Trump regime in the last year.
580 million was paid to ICE.

A striking feature of fascists is that they always turn against each other in the end.
The last one left either gets executed by the citizens or calls for a can of gasoline.

Shock in Italy at news that Trump is sending ICE thugs there for the Winter Olympics.
The mayor of co-host Milan called ICE "a militia that kills" after they killed two innocent people.
Trump claims ICE will help protect Vance and Rubio at the event.
The more likely purpose is to undermine Europe.

Trump will not be remembered for his golden ballrooms, his name on buildings, or the Nobel Prize he begged from someone else.

He will be remembered for this.

Canada, like many countries, should disinvest in big data company Palantir, which provides ICE with its target list.

Founder Peter Thiel is on record as being against democracy.

Yet Canada's Public Sector Pension Investment Board and the Canadian Pension Plan are major shareholders in Palantir.

Another lie. Trump has openly praised foreign despots for their ability to shoot people.

Rutte wants to make sure that his friend Trump benefits from EU money.

The EU should ban X and Grok.
Musk will bleat "freedom of speech", but our European view of that is not the same as the ridiculous US one, which disregards public protection.
Musk and his techno bros should not be free to damage Europeans even if Americans are stupid enough to let them damage them.
