The damage is already done. A mere handful trust America or Americans anymore.

How about a #FIFA and @fifaworldcup26.bsky.social boycott after presenting a so-called peace prize to a felon, rapist, fictitious drug warmonger, serial liar and corrupt businessman.

I never thought it would take under a year to have almost anything positive about the US implode in under a year. Let alone witness the downfall of a democratic US in my lifetime. To wit, be threatening to a cohesive society fostering nasty so-called conservatism world-wide. #USAdestruction

Sākšu ar skarbu un nepatīkamu faktu. 2023. gadā Latvijā tika reģistrēts vislielākais feminicīdu skaits uz 100 000 iedzīvotāju.

Tagad par citām nevienlīdzības jomām.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

The overlooked issue of domestic violence against elderly women Among all women killed by their partners in France in 2024, 26% were over the age of 70, a figure that is on the rise. Yet, the murders of these women and the possible abuse that preceded them are poorly documented.

Finland announces migration of its rail network to international gauge The Finnish government announces the migration of its rail network from Russian gauge (1,524 mm) to international gauge (1,435 mm) from 2032. The change aims to improve military mobility and regional ...

Finland uses “Russia-gauge” rails. They are going to move to European compatible rail gauge for their own resilience.

This is what we should be thinking about for moving to open social away from American platforms: it should come with significant spending commitments & is absolutely necessary.

Alvja Hermaņa atklāsmes par ukraiņiem katastrofālo un mums vienkārši ļoti kaitīgo Trampa "miera plānu" liek man pievienoties sazvērestības teorijai, ka "Bez partijām" ir ietekmes operācija. 1. plāna punkts ir sačakarēt Latvijas demokrātiju. 2. Ir pievienoties Fico/Orbāna blokam.

Time is nigh (and too many reasons to enumerate) to impeach, arrest the felon and rapist wielding power in the White House. By Thursday. Please, someone in authority-act on this matter!

Valaini, kas tas tāds par ģenderu te notiek!?

Where is #Europe or the #CoalitionOfTheWilling when #Ukraine really needs them in face of America’s treachery submitting to Putin’s desired evisceration of Ukraine?

I think the American public has the right to see the secret protocols of the Witkoff-Dmitriev pact. What business deals have been agreed?

French conservatives are inching towards a pact with Le Pen that could enable a far-right takeover of the country | Paul Taylor In trying to woo Le Pen’s voters, Les Républicains risk destroying France’s Gaullist legacy and putting Paris on a collision course with the EU, says Paul Taylor of the European Policy Centre

A very scary thought that Putin’s well financed French national (if not fashist) party could rule in France. WW3 in Europe, especially in the East and North becomes so much more likely.

Vai arī - nav nevienas ministrijas pārvaldībā, bet vienas rokas attālumā caur valsts pārvaldi. Zinu, nav populāra doma, bet vairāku ministriju pārvaldība radīs haosu nevis izaugsmi.

Saeimas priekšsētāja parāda kāpēc nepiemērota savam amatam.Valsts svētkos nevajadzētu paust savas partijas vērtības kā aizrādījumu citiem. Vakar man 2 ļoti dažādi mūsu reģiona lieli, pieredzējuši investori dalijās pieredzē par EM/MK rīcību, kas man lika izjust kaunu par LV. Lielu. Pateicoties ZZS.

Filma #Tīkls negaidīti izcila. Nacionāla, izgaismojot daudz jaunumu man no tā laika. Aktieri, scenārijs, montāža-tīrāka bauda. Paldies visiem!

"Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania will soon crawl to Russia on their knees."

ZZS-partija kuras rīcība izraisīja lielākos protestus kopš atmodas- argumentējot budžeta procesu pierāda, ka joprojām postpadomju nevis eiropeiska partija. #Valainis #Rokpelnis #Mieriņa

Lasot šo, nevarēju nedomāt par LPV un, piemēram, L.Liepiņas sacīto debatēs pirms konvencijas denosēšanas balsojuma, proti, viņa aicināja izbeigt denonsētājus saistīt ar RU, bet labāk pavērst skatu mūsu galvenā stratēģiskā partnera virzienā. Nu, jā, pavērsām. Un milzīgas atšķirības tur vis nav.
