In just a few weeks, governments meet in Geneva to decide whether to start writing the first global rules on killer robots. Some European leaders have already said yes. Nearly nine in ten people in France, Germany and the UK want rules.

When I look at this photo, I can’t help but think of images of dictators and Nazis.
Two flags on either side, a large curtain bearing the Ministry of War’s logo behind Hegseth (I think), with his arms outstretched in front of a lectern. All in dark tones, giving off a menacing air.

Perhaps people in the US don’t care how the world views them, but as a European I fully agree with that. What’s more, the US no longer feels like an ally, given the way it extorts and intimidates its allies.

As a European, I wonder how the midterms will turn out as Trump rigs and falsifies the results of his policy; he even extorts allies to that end. I see many great protests here, but do they represent the broader US population? What about those who don't read Bluesky?

Sorry, ‘extortion’ is a better description than ‘blackmail’. These are the sort of practices the Mafia engages in as well.

How can we spot corrupt regimes? One way is this: The Trump administration is withdrawing the US from GRECO, a European organization that combats corruption. The US is thus only the third country to leave the organization, after Russia and Belarus. That gives you food for thought, doesn’t it?

Trump and his government are once again blackmailing the EU. He wants it to sell off a large portion of its emergency diesel reserves so that prices fall in the run-up to the mid-term elections. If Europe refuses to cooperate, the US will impose export restrictions. Disgusting.

When I saw how the American delegation, led by Witkoff and Kushner, is brown-nosing Putin, it made me feel sick. These days, I firmly believe the current US is a vassal state of Russia.

One year ago, the EU found that Google had broken competition law in its advertising business. Today, Google is still making an estimated €288 million every single day in the EU. That’s more than €2 billion a week.

Do MAGA and Trump supporters use Bluesky to inform themselves and see through Trump's (and the oligarchs') policies, i.e. how he is destroying and isolating the US from the rest of the world? Judging by what I read on Bluesky (though I may be wrong), it seems we're just preaching to the choir.

And Kushner is backed by Meta in Albania. The Trump mafia is not content merely to profit from the US, but also extends its greedy tentacles beyond its borders. So do not be surprised that many people hate the Trump dynasty and the oligarchs who support them. www.politico.eu/article/meta...

It's precisely that. More than 70,000,000 people voted for that madman: Republicans and oligarchs are backing him in all his malicious deeds. If it were just a few individuals, it might perhaps be resolved by a next generation, but it's a festering, systemic problem that won't simply disappear.

"They think it's dum". Is he perhaps referring to his MAGA supporters here? Didn’t he once say that he loves stupid people? Ok, but more importantly, isn't he simply a puppet and a symptom of a wider problem, a broken system that mainly benefits oligarchs and keeping ppl ignorant?
Cartoon. Drawing above: Trump talks to ppl at the left of the drawing that are representing Justice, Black lives matter and 'Equality now'. He says: "I don't care about you". Right side of drawing there are a man with a rifle, and a woman with a bible yelling: "Whoooo! Maga, Baby!"
Drawing below: Trump turns to Maga and says: "I don't care about you either. Franky, it's weird that you haven't picked up on it."

I’ve seen so much idiocy from the US government that not even Monty Python could have come up with it. MAGA seems like a cult, and I thought the US couldn’t sink any lower, but yet it keeps happening again and again with Trump. Will there ever be a breaking point?

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (Putin, Modi, Xi Jinping and the Iranian President Pezeshkian) is a response to Western power on the world stage. Trump blackmailing, intimidating and threatening his allies drives the Western alliance apart. Trump is dragging the US into the abyss.
