#TrumpIsARussianAsset, Portuguese president says

With one peculiar & complex thing: the supreme leader of world’s greatest superpower is, objectively, a #Soviet or #Russian asset. He functions as an asset

I am saying that, objectively speaking, the new US leadership has strategically favored #Russia

Despite months-long #US led effort to end war in #Ukraine, #Trump hasn't taken any concrete steps pressuring Russia to stop fighting

Verrückte Welt! Bandcamp bietet seinen Artists jetzt die Option Bestellungen aus den USA zu sperren, bzw. den Versand in die USA zu verweigern.

Das tun sie natürlich nicht aus Bosheit, sondern um ihre Artists außerhalb der USA zu schützen. Viele Paketdienste haben die Lieferung in die USA wegen den Zöllen wohl ganz eingestellt.

"Life for Palestinians in the West Bank means being trapped between a rock and a hard place: the Israeli occupation on one side and a Palestinian Authority that works with it on the other."

Another opponent of Trump’s lunacy bites the dust.

Lawyers representing Dr Monarez said her sacking was illegal, and alleged she was targeted by Kennedy because she refused "to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives".
The reason for her removal was that she was "not aligned with the president's agenda", the White House said in a statement.

Für welche Freiheit sind nun die Republikaner in den USA unter Donald Trump und weshalb erinnert mich dies an ein grundsätzliches Diktatur-Vorgehen?
