I’m in Oversight Committee right now. Ranking Member Connolly just called for a vote to subpoena Elon Musk. Republicans out-number us on this committee, but many aren’t in the room. We’ll see who wins this vote. We deserve transparency and answers.

German authorities revealed that hundreds of cars in German were sabotaged by a group of three men who operated for the Russian state. After damaging the cars they left messages pointing at the Green Party.

Gazan sota | Trump: Yhdysvallat ottaa Gazan haltuunsa Presidentti Trump sanoi toimittajille uskovansa, että palestiinalaiset lähtisivät mielellään Gazasta, jos he voisivat.

Tämä on täysin tuomittava ja erittäin vaarallinen lausunto. Joko alkaisi ääni muuttumaan kellossa myös Suomen valtiojohdossa? Vielä viime pääministerin kyselytunnilla Orpo antoi ymmärtää, että ihmisten pakkosiirrot olisi hyväksyttävä teko..

This is ethnic cleansing, plain and simple.

But will the UK government condemn this?

Olen elämäni aikana huomannut, että moni meistä ei ole kosketuksissa omiin tunteisiinsa oikein millään tasolla, ja tämä ilmenee sitten aivan naurettavuuksiin asti menevänä järkeilynä ja vähättelynä.

Itse olen täysin raivoissani Gazan tilanteesta.

Ihmisten itsekeskeisyys on kyllä järkyttävää seurattavaa.

Trumpin puheet otetaan Suomessakin tosissaan vasta sitten, kun hän uhkaa tehdä saman meille.

Siihen asti nämä ovat hauskoja diilejä ja puolihuolimattomia heittoja. Eihän se kosketa meitä.

Aldi quietly scrubbed its careers website of all DE&I initiatives According to one employee on Reddit, information on Aldi’s DE&I efforts is now only visible on the company’s internal employee website/portal.

No matter where you live, you should avoid this company in the future.

Egal, wo sie Leben. Dieses Unternehmen sollten Sie in Zukunft meiden.

“On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST). For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming. Thank you for your service”

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

Wolf promises pigs they will be spared.
