Generalisationen kotzt mich an. Mein anonymer Status hat sehr viel mit meiner Ost-Vergangenheit zu tun und dem Fakt, das ich Freiheit in den USA nicht erlebe wenn ich weiter meine Job behalten und meine Familie ernähren möchte.

Generalisationen kotzt mich an. Mein anonymer Status hat sehr viel mit meiner Ost-Vergangenheit zu tun und dem Fakt, das ich Freiheit in den USA nicht erlebe wenn ich weiter meine Job behalten und meine Familie ernähren möchte.
Das hatte mir schon 23andMe gesagt.
If this was really a concern of the oligarchs, why don't they improve women's healthcare, child protection and daycare, improve child education and reduce education costs. In short, why don't they make being a parent easier for all??
I hope all of maga will join!
This is terrible! I wonder how mainstream politicians decide to win back the support for democracy from their people. I remember that the EU was not popular with the people at the beginning. Maybe, European politicians ought to listen rather than blame obvious bogey men.
This is a weird headline. Commercial airliners are using other navigation systems than GPS, especially on the approach where they use ILS.
A reminder for the “Ukraine is a proxy” crowd which has come out of the woodwork again. Whatever propaganda the Russo-Trumpian alliance now tries to push, the truth is that Europe follows and backs Ukraine, it doesn’t set the goals or the tone.
"I just followed orders." was the standard excuse of German Nazis in the Nürnberg trials.
Above: Peskov on the Russian attack on #Kyiv last night, which killed 17 people, including 4 children, the youngest of whom was only 2 and a half years old: "The strikes are successful, targets are being destroyed, and the 'special military operation' continues.
Some strong North Korea vibes! Ridiculous!
Exactly! But in 1990, Gorbashev had hardly a good negotiating position. Sure, he had a large nuclear stockpile (much of it in Ukraine) and the largest stockpile of conventional weapons, but he needed to feed the Soviet people.
The debate about the supposed "not an inch to the East" promise to Gorbachev misses the main point. Yes, there was no formal promise but even if Ru informally expected to be allowed to dominate EEurope in perpetuity by dictating its geopolitical choices that should never have been respected!
I am in Europe right now and have not heard a single person say such a thing, quite the opposite!
Fighting fascism every day is more important than meaningless what-if.
German here; it might not be a part of the US general education, but WWII ended by defeating Japan, Germany, and Italy, not by negotiation!
Maybe that is what Jesus would do, sue the atheists to love him.
Always!
Wie jetzt, es war dann doch nicht die böse USA? Na dann müssen manche Menschen etwas machen das sie lange nicht versucht haben und wieder anfangen zu denken.
No concentration camps in the USA! Ever!!
The ruling sided with environmental groups and the Miccosukee Tribe, who had filed a suit alleging that the facility built in the Florida Everglades violated federal environmental laws.
It just shows me that the entire "security guarantee" concept might not be worth the paper it is written on.
Russia was included in the 1994 security guarantees.
If you start a sentence with "round up every .." you must know that you are part of a problem not the solution.
Finnish President Stubb put it plainly: “To help Americans grasp the scale of Russia’s territorial ambitions in Ukraine, imagine having to give up Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia.”
"Boston will never back down from being a beacon of freedom, and a home for everyone."
An idea:
Ukraine already has security guarantees from both countries, Russia and the USA, since 1994!
Kharkiv…
National Aeronautics and Space Administration, it is literally in the name.
Top: two people with nukes; Bottom: one person who voluntarily disarmed the third largest nuke arsenal based on security promises of the other.
So far, there is one important difference, Trumps NKVD is not yet killing millions of Americans.
Just an endless parade of war criminals ...
Blumenthal's words would have some weight if the USA would join the ICC.
The meeting was a disaster for everyone except two people. Trump got his photo op and his ego boost. Putin got his photo op, whitewashing of war crimes and no sanctions. No one in Ukraine, Europe or the United States benefited in any way.
"It could have been worse!' would be a great summary of Trump 1.0. Now that the bar is low, anything shy of a disaster is just "another Monday."
Is that even the real Putin or just one of his decoys? He seems more animated than usual.
This video is a reminder for the immediate need of the USA to join the International Criminal Court (ICC)!
Look at the body languages w/o sound and you will know all you need to know.
The new axis of dictators.
Maybe he is senile and needs a reminder where he is from. Maybe the sleeves say "beath in" and "breath out."
California strong!
All Trump is asked to wrt the war is to deliver weapons per 1994 security guarantees provided to Ukraine. He is not asked to do anything else, nothing! But he cannot or does not want to do the bare minimum.
Even if he was a Socialist, so what!? It is not against any laws including the constitution. Trump is a fascist and consistently ignoring the constitution. There is a "buzz word" that actually should have legal consequences.
That reminds me what we did to UK football fans in the 1990s.
I don't answer spam calls. I would hope Norwegians do the same.
Only very simple people cannot multi task. Duffy might be one of those.
Don't believe the reality you are experiencing, believe the reality the Fuehrer is creating. When have seen what that leads to before. Can we please not repeat it?!
Grandpa telling his crazy stories again before having his breakfast soup.
I wonder what it says about a country that spends its resources on policing and controlling its citizens rather than on elevating the citizenry to better standards of living for all. Fascism comes to mind which has never been successful, pleasant, or desirable in human history. #GotFreedom
Wasn't there a term for centralized decisions on production? Will we soon have a 5-year plan too?
Reporter (should have said): "I am not surprised that the Russian tried, I am surprised they succeeded under your leadership and administration."
OMG, I did not go through the US school system, but I had chemistry starting in 7th grade and knew about carbon dioxide. I feel so embarrassed for these two ignorant people.
Just always add 257,731 to each monthly number to please the Führer.
When you know DC and have been there a few times you will know how hilariously stupid this is.
If you give stupid people power, expect stupid things to happen!
Maybe we can divert some of the 860+ billion of defense and $100 billion ICE dollars to helps the poorest of the poor fellow citizens instead?
This is a watershed moment for us Americans! We are talking about our fellow American citizens who do not have the means to get housing! "Beautification of our communities" cannot mean to lock up poor people who have no options and fell through the social safety net! Disgusting!
I grew up in Washington DC and it has never felt safer or cleaner. Trump's "emergency" is fake, straight out of the authoritarian playbook
Die Nazis hätten sich in den 90gern nicht nach Ostkreuz getraut! Wahnsinn!
1994 Budapest Memorandum, Hegseth, read a freaking book!
Most homeless people in DC are US citizens with the same rights as all of us! Research and mitigate the reasons for homelessness! Do not just move the unhoused people out of the Führer's view!
I saw the 2025 tour concert in Oakland, my 5th NIN concert. It blew my socks off!! Trent Reznor not only remakes his songs, he keeps the lyrics and write entirely new music! What an amazing artist!!
I think the problem with Trump is that every time he talks one cannot believe how hopelessly simple the man is.
One difference to LA these goons do not understand; many middle and high school class trips go to DC every year. People actually know what DC looks like and won't fall for this nonsense. I have been to DC many times and never felt more unsafe than in any other large US city.
Jews in Vienna forced to scrub streets watched by SS & SA men
That is the $1 million question! I am an immigrant to the US and therefore not qualified to answer your question with any authority.
There is always at least one Eva Braun.
It is a bit much fascism for a Monday, isn't it.
They already tried in LA ... DC will not be any more welcoming to his goons.
I have worked out with police in DC and Baltimore for years. They are our neighbors, fellow parents at school drop off, our friends, and fellow crab-feast participants. Now, Trump tries to pit them in his fascist craze against the community. Let him not succeed!
Drug Enforcement Administration officers patrolling the National Mall. If you know DC you understand how tremendously goofy this is (h/t @lorenzohall1.bsky.social)
Trump just ordered homeless people to leave Washington DC "IMMEDIATELY" and be shipped "far from the Capital." Violent crime is down 26% but facts don't matter when you need a scapegoat for your authoritarian power grab. Meanwhile he’s rolling troops in.
Russians never learn from history, not from their own history, not from other countries. It is probably too painful to admit that one of their dear leaders killed 20 million of his own people for no good reason whatsoever.
Meine Großmutter konnte mehrere Russische Vergewaltigungen 1945 abwehren. Ich bin auf jeden Fall dabei das zu verhindern wenn es notwendig wird!
Because there were some drunken and violent Russian fur trappers in Alaska in the early 19th century? 🤣
Remember when we all talked about Greenland for two weeks? It seems years ago now.
How long before Witkoff and Trump figure out they're being played?
This is exactly the America we know. The only difference is that racism is visible and accepted (by some) again. I guess that is what the term MAGA represents.
Wernher von Braun, a German Nazi employing concentration camp forced labor and dropping rockets on the UK, led the US space program in the 1950s and 60s!
1994 Budapest Memorandum: US provided security and territorial integrity guarantees in exchange for Ukraine disarming the world's third largest nuclear weapons arsenal. - US obligations and promises are broken!
Prediction: Putin will get from Trump the maximum concessions such that he can declare victory, occupy Ukrainian lands, and regroup for the next, larger war on Europe.
Watch the moment a group of Israeli activists stormed a live television broadcast to protest Israel’s war on Gaza. Members of Standing Together, wearing 'Leave Gaza' T-shirts, jumped onto the stage during the airing of the Big Brother show on Channel 13.
If God wanted me, why would I speak to him through Christian doctrine? So many other good options with less baggage.
So, Europe gets the second level idiot while Russia gets the first level?
Under Trump, the US government is ally to the highest bidder.
Russian drones in direction of Kyiv region detected.
The lost WWII world order was also based on some "special countries" with permanent seats and veto rights in the UN Security Council.
Zelenskyy should counter by offering Russia Alaska.
It all seems exactly what evangelicals and Jehovah's Witnesses trying to push "the truth" on me. Seems a colossal waste of time. Good luck!
I am not sure why atheists would discuss the Bible with Christians. I respect my fellow humans to believe in whatever helps them on their journey as long as it does not violate common law. I reject Christian doctrine as my belief system as a personal choice.
I believe in free markets, individual liberty, and limited government. That's why I oppose spending 100s of billions on police who are dedicated to undermining free markets in labor, denying individual liberty, and imposing unlimited, authoritarian government.
I now see where Trump gets his interior decoration ideas. 🤣
Indoctrinated Katie Pavlich lectures Fox audience on indoctrination. Hilarious!
That is why we ought to study history all our lives; makes Mike sound like the complete idiot he is.
Lift = dynamic pressure * lift coefficient* wing area, saved you from reading 6 books.
Why always demean the German people and culture? Just own your American fascism!
Ru isn't interested in peace and is ignoring Trump's deadline.
I’m shocked and disappointed at how quickly everybody reverts to « Ru is a great power » and « great powers will decide Ukraine’s fate » against the ample evidence that Ukraine holds its own and Ru cannot advance and cannot militarily compel the capitulation that it keeps asking for.
"Walking on a sidewalk is antisemitism!" Where do these boneheads stop and start thinking?
