You may recall that in January of 2025, artist Ann Telnaes announced that she had quit The Washington Post after editors killed a cartoon that depicted owner Jeff Bezos, among others, genuflecting to Trump.
This cartoon feels even more relevant this week.

Opinion | How Trump Has Used the Presidency to Make at Least $1.4 Billion (Gift Article)
The president took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he’s focused his second term on enriching himself and his family.
www.nytimes.com
@nytimes.com «a government whose leaders worked to enrich themselves might still call itself a republic,…. but when the aim of government shifts from public good to private gain, its constitution becomes an empty shell. The government is no longer for the people. « www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

AI is able to do research. Should I be concerned as a researcher? Is there room for me in the equation? @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/t...

Opinion | Trump’s Neville Chamberlain Prize
www.nytimes.com
Thomas Friedman @nytimes.com does it again: Donald Trump as winner of the “Neville Chamberlain Peace Prize” « www.nytimes.com/2025/11/22/o...
How did you arrive at this space and what is next?
@financialtimes.com «Trump returned to power pledging to end America’s “forever wars”. To date, however, his readiness to be led by the nose by Putin and failure to follow through on threats to impose a higher price on Moscow has led only to an escalation of Russia’s offensive in Ukraine.»
As a European, I cannot comprehend how a supreme court can be politiziced. How did you get there?

Det er vanskelig å komme utenom betydningen av hell og uhell når situasjonen for dagens Høyre og partileder Erna Solberg skal oppsummeres.

«For et par år siden oppsummerte jeg Solbergs politiske prosjekt til å være ønsket om å få holde flest mulig nyttårstaler for NRK.» @einarlie.bsky.social i @aftenposten.no e-avis.aftenposten.no/shared/artic...
Norges Bank kutter styringsrenten til 4,25 prosent
Sentralbanken sjokkerer med kutt og sier at renten trolig settes videre ned i løpet av året.

@norgesbank.bsky.social kutter styringsrenten, men det var det ingen rentetipper som hadde tippet. Hvorfor ikke? www.dn.no/makrookonomi...

«Naturen har lover. Økonomien har antagelser. Når disse to krasjer, vil fysikken alltid vinne.» @celiseskaar.bsky.social deler gode tanker i @dagensnaeringsliv.bsky.social www.dn.no/innlegg/klim...
Partiet @Høyre og @ErnaSolberg er iferd med å begå «en Biden». Nåværende leder er ikke den som vil vinne valget «Høyre tre måneder før valget: 13,9 prosent på ny måling» iflg @aftenposten.no
Opinion | Trump’s Gilded Gut Instinct

NYT’s Thomas Friedman does it again: USA is run by Trump Inc. because «Democrats are too weak, Republicans are too craven, big law firms are too morally bankrupt and government bureaucrats are too defenseless to do anything.» www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/o...
