Norwegian fuel supplier refuses U.S. warships over Ukraine Haltbakk Bunkers will cease supplying fuel to U.S. forces in Norway and American ships docking in Norwegian ports, citing dissatisfaction with recent U.S. policy towards Ukraine.

A major Norwegian fuel company is refusing to provide fuel to U.S. warships after the “shitshow” in the White House yesterday over Ukraine. This is the way. ukdefencejournal.org.uk/norwegian-fu...

The first Republican senator to condemn the Trump administration for “embracing Putin.”👇

Protestors met JD Vance in Vermont when he went to vacation there today. This is a good one:

Hämmentäviä lukuja.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.

We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.

Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Elon Musk's Takeover Is Being Aided by a Trumpworld Power Couple Stephen and Katie Miller—he's "the prime minister," sources say; she's DOGE's comms guru—liaise between the White House and Elon Musk, and are centrally involved as he tears the government apart.

NEW: Who’s guiding Elon Musk as he navigates life in DC—and uses DOGE to dismantle key parts of the government? Stephen and Katie Miller, multiple sources tell WIRED.

An inside look into the couple who have become integral to the world’s richest man and his ambitions in Washington.

Great historical perspective. Guess I'll check this next: www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...

This article is great, and definitely starts at the (chronological) beginning doi.org/10.1017/S153...

Cheers! The abstract also mentions political theory's recent rediscovery of bureaucracy, have to check that out as well!

Thanks Petri, have to take a look!

Dear all, do you know of philosophical defences of bureaucracy? Starting from scratch (or Weber) here. Or do you know who would know? #philsky

No, 150-Year-Olds Aren't Collecting Social Security Benefits Elon Musk claims to have found rampant fraud in the Social Security Administration. There's a much simpler explanation.

For-Profit Companies Can’t Easily Replace NOAA’s Weather-Forecasting Prowess Replicating the abilities of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s fleet of weather satellites would take time and a lot of money—and expose private companies to a large amount of…

Anytime a storm is brewing, your local forecasters are getting the latest data from NOAA. As the agency faces an uncertain future, one thing's for sure: for-profit companies would struggle to replicate NOAA's weather-forecasting prowess.

Finnish pm Orpo reportedly said that while there are confusing messages from the US, things are basically ok. Eh.

We are nearing a precipice.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly.

Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences.

The public must turn on this madness and soon.

A critical point.

Essee | Länsimaisista arvoista ei kannata paljon ylpeillä Länsimaiseen arvoyhteisöön kannattaa suhtautua kriittisesti, sillä arvomme tuovat ja ylläpitävät paitsi vapautta myös tuhoa ja ristiriitoja, kirjoittaa Janne Saarikivi.

Hyvä essee. Erottelukykyisempää tosin olisi erottaa länsimaisesta elämänmenosta rakenteet kuten kapitalismi ja "arvot", jotta viimeksimainittu olisi hyödyllinen käsite. Kapitalismin pakkoja ei muuteta arvoja muuttamalla, monia asioita muutetaan.
