I don’t think I have ever publicly criticized any Presidential nominee before.

But E.J. Antoni is completely unqualified to be BLS Commissioner. He is an extreme partisan and does not have any relevant expertise.

He would be a break from decades of nonpartisan technocrats.

Wenn es einen Messerangriff gab, die Polizei auf den Täter schoss und #Ratingen nicht trendet und du erst zwei Tage später davon hörst, dann weißt du, dass der Täter Deutscher war, weil Gewalt niemanden interessiert, wenn die Rechten es nicht ausschlachten können. Wir werden gehirngewaschen.

"The EU’s ... supply constraints, especially its high internal barriers and regulatory hurdles, ... are far more damaging for growth than any tariffs the US might impose. The second factor ... is Europe's tolerance of persistently weak demand."

Says the man himself, Mr Draghi.

USA & China liefern sich ein atemberaubendes Wettrennen um die Dominanz in KI.
Im „Sofortprogramm“ der CDU/CSU steht währenddessen unter der Überschrift „Vorrang für Wettbewerbsfähigkeit & Wohlstand“: Agrardieselsubvention wird wieder erhöht. Umsatzsteuer für Gastronomie gesenkt. Kein Wort zu KI. 😳

Wirtschaftliche Stärke und Erfolg Europas sind die Argumente um alle Beteiligten zu überzeugen. Deutschland muss seine moralisierende Art der Diskussion hinter sich lassen und auf Erfolg getrimmt werden. Die Welt wird keine Rücksicht nehmen, auf uns warten oder uns fragen. 2/2

Still not quite ready to put into words what I think of #Merz, and today's vote in the Bundestag.

The AfD is celebrating because they know what today means.

Merkel-era “black zero” fiscal policy and budget surplus, insufficient investment into the future (infrastructure, digitalisation, green transition, education) are the reason why Germany is today so far behind other countries. And the AfD is cashing in the political win now.
The Brexit playbook, in Germany: run down public services and infrastructure to the point of collapse, blame immigrants for the fallout.

And the country is falling for it, too.
