Sam Bankman-Fried was convicted of fraud in 2023 and is now in jail. Court documents show he considered rebranding as a Republican as part of a potential comeback strategy. Just last week, he announced on Twitter that he is a Republican and praised Trump.

Spanish is clearly now the world’s coolest language. So why do we push British children to learn French? | Gary Nunn As Bad Bunny showed at the Super Bowl, español is the coming thing. No wonder it’s now the top GCSE language choice, says journalist Gary Nunn

I'm the last person to discourage anyone from Spanish, my first love.
But French is a multi-tool. People focus on France and forget that it's a major language in Europe, North America, MENA West Africa. No other language but English is so global.

After Starlink terminals were cut off for the Russian armed forces, Russians reportedly began blackmailing the families of Ukrainian prisoners of war, forcing them to register Starlink in their own names so it could later be used against Ukraine.

Haha, Österreich, so possierlich.

Was ist jetzt schon wieder?

Yeah, but don't you agree, too, that China's new blueprint heralds new opportunities yaddayaddayadda?

Sanktionsbetrug: Kirgisistan im Fadenkreuz der EU Seit Russlands Überfall auf die Ukraine stiegen die EU-Exporte in das zentralasiatische Land enorm. Die Kommission droht nun mit einem Handelsembargo für sensible Technologie.

Die EU kann seit 2023 gezielte Handelsembargos gegen Drittstaaten verhängen, die ihre Sanktionen gegen Russland umgehen. Das hat sie bisher noch nicht getan. Gibt es nun eine Premiere? Mehr hier @diepressecom.bsky.social. www.diepresse.com/20562205/kir...

You're simply a better man than we could ever hope to become. 😉

Danke Dir, Toby. But you haven't yet seen the collection of weird takes I have in stock, muhahaha! 😸

All those who religiously read Playbook every morning while quietly cursing about the numerous mistakes and weird takes it serves up daily – could I interest you in The Morning Post Europe? Similar idea but far more substance. In French, English, and Italian.

Jon, I gladly invite you to run our editing, publishing, and subscription system (for free, and in the evenings, sometimes past midnight, as we did this case, will you?).

Finally found time to watch *that* Super Bowl halftime concert. Not my sport, not really my music, but BIST DU DEPPERT WHAT A SHOW. www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6Fu...

If Bad Bunny was serious about uniting Americans, he would have given his Grammy to Donald Trump.

I gib da glei ane aufn Ziguri, du alter Grieche! Es muss nicht immer Latein sein, es gibt im Wienerischen auch ein griechisches Erbe.

14 EU Commissioners go to the Munich Security Conference, as @henryjfoy.ft.com just helpfully pointed out at the midday press briefing of the @ec.europa.eu, and I only have one question: how sad, and disrespected do the other 13 feel for not being invited?

Ok. So if that's a Bad Bunny, I can't wait to see what a Good Bunny, or an Amazing Hamster, might do to MAGA's cultural panic receptors.

Yes, absolutely.

Unser Objekt des Monats Februar ist ein geschnitztes Herz von Franz Plotnarek. Der Mechaniker wurde für seinen Kampf gegen den Nationalsozialismus im März 1943 hingerichtet. Das mit improvisiertem Glaswerkzeug geschnitzte Herz ist ein letztes Geschenk für seine Tochter aus dem Gefängnis. 1/3

Maybe, just maybe, the like/dislike of pets isn't a very trustworthy marker of good/bad character?

Great analysis, as always, by @davidcarretta.bsky.social, on the Commission's omissions. With a reference to a very important paper by @rdanielkelemen.bsky.social and @tommasopavone.bsky.social.
