European far-right parties are looking to turn voters’ cost-of-living concerns into opposition for aid to Ukraine. It poses a challenge to the mainstream powers to sustain support for higher defense budgets — even if that means competing with welfare. 🔗 vist.ly/5mjx9

Q: You mentioned you want people like Elon Musk to come here, but he didn't build his companies overnight. So how do you decide who is the next Elon Musk? VANCE: One, does the person fill a position that simply cannot be filled by an American worker? Two, is this person a truly elite human being?

A great cartoon by @bvdschot.bsky.social - The Firewall (Brandmuur) didn't work. The German middle-class loves the right wing populist narrative. It's nonsensical. Dangerous even. A shame that the #AFD is a #Putin #Pimp #Party and has no serious plan to restructure the German #Economy - #Merz #CDU

De energiekosten voor huishoudens uitgedrukt in kWh. #grafiekvandedag In NL zijn we gewend dat aardgas per m3 wordt afgerekend, in bijna alle andere EU-landen is dat per kWh. Ook de internationale gashandel verloopt per MWh. Ongeveer: 1 liter benzine = 1 m3 gas = 10 kWh.

#Salch on the current schoolprotests in France. One eye blinded by a riot gun (Lanceur des Balles de Défense). One hand missing because of a sting ball grenade used by the police. And the left leg. Gone after blood poisoning after a rat bite at school. #France #Schoolprotest

Only 86 days until Christmas! 🎅 Here’s a gift idea for that “special” friend or family member.
Cartoon image of a Jan 6 snow globe, packaged for consumers in distinctive red, shite, and blue colors, with white stars.

The snow globe contains the capitol building surrounded by many tiny figures wearing red hats and some holding confederate flags and red Trump flags. “Washington D.C.” is written on the base.

The packaging reads, “Jan 6 Snow Globe.” At the bottom of the box, “Shake to see the Republicans attack the Capitol!” The text, “derelict U.S. President not included” also seen in the front of the box.
