Nei, NRK-desken. Skjerp dere! Viken Park har ikke fått grønt lys. Alle klager på både reguleringsplan, utslippstillatelse mm skal fortsatt behandles. At AP-regjeringa legger opp til omkamp med sine egne statsforvalterjurister som prøver sikre forsvarlige natur- og miljøvurderinger er sin sak...

Fikk ikke lest denne før nå. Jeg synes denne traff godt fra @eivindtraedal.bsky.social. Hvis alle begynner med egne fakta er vi ille ute. Et annet eksempel er energipolitikken der Rødt fremdeles bruker formuleringer som «Teppebombing av vindmøller i Finnmark». Noe som rett og slett er helt galt.

Norge i internasjonale medier i dag igjen. Vi vil alle ha friske og rike fjorder. Hele verden er begeistret for dem. Norge: -Ja, og så fin dumpeplass for utslipp fra oppdrett og industri !?!

This is one of Norway’s most pristine fjords. So why is it being used as a dumping site for mine waste?
The Norwegian government has given a permit to a mining company to release waste into Førde fjord despite a 17-year battle by campaigners and a supreme court ruling against it

Americans pay billions to for-profit prison companies to incarcerate people. Their financial incentives reward keeping beds filled; some contracts pay even when beds are empty. Profits go to company owners and investors, not the public that funds them. That’s a profound conflict of interest.

Hunger is gripping occupied Oleshky: ca. 6,000 people, including 200 children, are trapped without food, water and medicine. Supplies last arrived in May 2026, and Russian forces won’t let civilians leave. One possible explanation is that Russia uses trapped civilians as "human shield."

I spent years working at DHS. ICE's HSI is supposed to hunt terrorists, traffickers & cartels. DHS recently claimed it found 16,000 potential voter fraud cases in Nevada. The real number is 185. Today, ICE HSI launches a “voter fraud surge” ahead of the midterms. This should raise serious questions.
