Sorgligt att en ung (liberal?) generation tror att Ezra Klein har de politiska svaren för framtiden. Om något är han mindre radikal när det gäller "reformer, investeringar och stärkande av samhällsinstitutionerna" än vänstertänkare som Piketty & Naomi Klein. www.expressen.se/kultur/kultu...

BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

This FT account of pure thuggishness of Trump representatives posing as diplomats has not appeared in US media anywhere, but is being widely circulated and reported in media in Europe, the UK and the Asia Pacific area. Be sure to read it all.

This should first-page news everywhere and prompt all EU countries to invite US ambassadors to explain these actions. US aggression should not go unmet. But our mouse-like leaders are almost certainly going to let also this pass.

If events are making Europeans feel helpless and depressed, Finns might say, what is needed is more sisu—a personality trait or philosophy combining inner strength, perseverance and a can-do attitude towards adversity
The Finnish lifestyle philosophy that could save Europe
Sisu, or grit in the face of adversity, is just what the continent needs

"Such is their fear of jail, bankruptcy or reprisal, that most people I spoke to insisted on anonymity. This was in spite of the fact that many of the same people said Trump would only be restrained by powerful voices standing up to him." My Weekend FT essay. Please read it. on.ft.com/4hqblpr

Velkajarruasiaa koskeva sopu on vähän yllättävä. Yllättävämpää on, että sen yhteydessä ei keskustella lainkaan puoliväliriihessä päätetyistä veronalennuksista, esim n miljardi ansiotuloveroista. Eli aloitetaan kauaskantoinen julkisen talouden kiristys isoilla veronalennuksilla.

Tärkeä informatiivinen ketju @timostewart.bsky.social lta.
Verkossa käydään jatkuvasti Gazan ympärillä infosotaa. Yleinen virhekäsitys on, että kyse on jostain taitavasta ja hienovaraisesta operoinnista.

Usein se on päinvastoin todella pöljää. Ja silti se toimii.

Annan tuoreen esimerkin toiselta alustalta. Tähän liittyy monia suomalaisia tilejä.

News footage from Portland shows a calm, tranquil city. But an AI video that Stephen Miller texted to Donald Trump shows the city as a burning hellhole. The truth may lie somewhere in between.
