Some really striking numbers in this new survey showing the flip in European public opinion about America.

But bear in mind this is only Western Europe. In Eastern Europe, it has been harder to take the blinders off peoples' eyes.

The Struggles Of Elon Musk 😔
A cartoon made in response to an Elon Musk tweet that reads “Whoever said “money can’t buy happiness” really knew what they were talking about 😔” The black and white cartoon shows Musk standing against the wind. There is a distant expression on his face and a single tear being blown from his left eye. He wraps his arms around himself, trying to keep warm. The world is so cruel to him. Punishing him for the meagre crime of hoarding massive amounts of wealth and showing no empathy for the vulnerable. Also, he uses his platform to boost racism, misogyny, and white supremacy but seriously guys who would hold that against a fella? Next to him a caption reads “Being a shit person is ruining my life”

A #defence tidbit.

After #Finland joined #NATO, we've noted that many foreign #military professionals have problems understanding our reserve-based (or cadre) system.

They tend to believe "conscripts" are poorly trained and unmotivated.

Then they learn they've been working with reservists. 1/

The exceptionally high willingness Finns have to defend the country, even if outcome is in doubt, certainly plays a part in all this.

I'm very far from the only one who uses quite a bit of their own time to prepare.

In fact, all my contributions are minor compared to e.g. volunteer instructors. 8/
A map of Europe showing the percentage of people willing to fight for their country, based on Gallup poll. 74% of Finns say they would defend their country, the highest in Europe. Greece follows with 54%, a 20-point gap. Willingness is lowest in Italy, where only 14% answer "yes."

En Europe et singulièrement en France, l'Etat de Droit signifie que "nul n'est au-dessus des lois" et que la règlementation européenne, retranscrite dans le droit français, s'impose à toutes et tous.

Merci à la lettre « La Vigie » d'accueillir à nouveau mes réflexions !

Il est discuté du principe de stricte suffisance : nombre de têtes ☢️ entretenues au service en France (290) vis-à-vis du concept de « dissuasion élargie » et sa réception européenne.

The Paris public prosecutor's office announcing on X that it's raiding X's offices and also leaving X is one hell of a mic drop
Autotranslated text of Paris prosecutors' tweet: A search is being carried out at the French premises of X by the cybercrime unit of the Paris public prosecutor's office, together with @CyberGEND and @Europol, as part of the investigation opened in January 2025. The Paris public prosecutor's office is leaving X. Find us on Lkd and Insta.
