@GordonGChang Terrible loss for the people of South Korea! Similar to what happened in Brazil and what almost happened in the US.

Gordon G. Chang@GordonGChang·
Lee Jae-myung is accumulating dictatorial powers. The free world is losing—or has already lost—South Korea.
The Monarch Report@monarchreport25

Canadian conservative political theorist William Barclay published an op-ed calling South Korean President Lee "Asia's newest dictator." His argument rests on three pillars. 1. Suppression of Human Rights The Lee administration has violated freedom of religion, assembly, and expression. Barclay claims the government pressured X to remove accounts questioning the 2025 election, and cites Trump's remark: "What is going on in South Korea? Seems like a Purge or Revolution." 2. Political Persecution The Special Counsel was allegedly abused to raid opposition offices and churches. Former President Yoon was held in "inhumane conditions" before being sentenced to life imprisonment. On religious persecution, Barclay writes: >"The Lee regime has baselessly persecuted and arrested numerous Christian leaders, such as the brave Pastor Hyun-bo Son and the 83-year-old 'Mother of Peace,' Hak Ja Han. In truth, President Lee has effectively attempted to afford his government the ability to exile Christ himself from South Korea, via ghoulish new 'dissolution orders' that will permit the DPK to abort any 'religious foundations' adjudged to be even inadvertently implicated in the politics of the South Korean nation." Barclay argues that repeated impeachment motions against senior officials during the Yoon era were designed to paralyze democratic processes and manufacture "a false narrative of insurrection. 3. Distortion of Judicial Processes President Lee has exploited Korea's democratic processes, under the banner of the law, to re-entrench his power and nullify the will of the people. Judicial reform laws expand the Supreme Court from 14 to 26 justices, with Lee appointing 22. Barclay calls this a brazen power grab, citing former U.S. Ambassador Morse Tan, who labeled it something "done by leftist dictatorships." Conclusion Barclay closes: "South Korea as we know it is about to be lost." He frames Lee's authoritarian drift as a threat not just to South Korea, but to democracy across the region. This is only a summary. Please refer to the original article for further details: westernstandard.news/opinion/barcla…

Il est des moments où l’Histoire reprend son souffle et montre à l’Humanité l’horizon de sa grandeur. Avec Artemis II, plus de cinquante ans après Apollo 17, la Lune redevient ce rendez-vous des peuples qui mettent en commun et qui osent. Français, Européens, nous pouvons être fiers de participer à cette aventure extraordinaire en ayant un rôle clé grâce au module de service européen développé par l’ESA. Félicitations aux équipes de la NASA et de l’ESA pour ce lancement réussi. Nous allons suivre de près toute la suite. Dans l’espace aussi, notre destin s’écrit par l’ambition, la souveraineté et l’unité.

The genius of NATO is that it quietly did the impossible: it helped end the Cold War, anchored Europe’s peace, & still stands as the West’s strongest insurance policy. The UK has an historic chance to lead NATO Europe & prove it remains our security cornerstone. We must not fail.

The French President Just Reminded The World What Class Looks Like Donald Trump stood in front of a camera and did what Donald Trump does. He mocked Emmanuel Macron’s wife. He put on a fake French accent. He told the world that Brigitte Macron “treats him extremely badly” and that the French president was “still recovering from a right hook to the jaw.” It was the geopolitical equivalent of a man shouting at clouds. Macron was in South Korea when someone asked him about it. He paused. He considered the question with the expression of a man who has just been informed that a golden retriever has urinated on his Bentley. Then he said this: “Neither elegant nor up to standard.” Seven words. That was it. Seven words delivered with the quiet, devastating calm of someone who genuinely does not need to raise their voice because the staff will handle it. It was the verbal equivalent of a single raised eyebrow from a man in a perfectly fitted suit, looking down at someone who has just spilled red wine on the carpet at Versailles. Consider the man on the other end of that eyebrow. A man who wears a red baseball cap to diplomatic meetings and a white one to funerals. A man who arrives at the most solemn occasions in the world looking like he has just wandered in from a golf buggy. A man whose morning routine apparently involves industrial quantities of spray tan applied to a face that has, at various medical estimations, the cardiovascular profile of a blocked Manhattan sewer. A man whose idea of a state dinner is a quarter pounder eaten alone in a motorcade. This is the man who decided to lecture the world about Emmanuel Macron’s marriage. Trump called NATO a “paper tiger.” He mocked a head of state’s wife. He uploaded the whole embarrassing performance to the White House YouTube channel, briefly, before someone in the building apparently remembered that diplomacy exists and pulled the plug. Macron’s response landed like a white glove placed gently on a table. Not thrown. Placed. “Neither elegant nor up to standard.” In French diplomatic circles, that sentence is a declaration of war. In English, it translates roughly to: I have noticed your behavior, and I find it beneath comment, which is why I am commenting on it once, quietly, before returning to matters of actual importance. There is a man in this story who has spent eighty years on this earth and still cannot find a suit that fits, a tie that stops at his belt, or a shade of foundation that occurs anywhere in nature. And there is a man who responded to being publicly humiliated by the most powerful person on earth with seven words and a expression that could freeze the Seine. Macron has something Trump has spent his entire life trying to purchase and never quite managed. Class. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin claims Israel is not a democracy- despite being the only democracy in the Middle East. “It’s an apartheid state. Apartheid that is codified, enforced and now given the legal right to execute Palestinians…”

Rasmus Jarlov@RasmusJarlov·
As a European, I am not afraid that the USA will leave NATO. We already know that they do not have good intentions to Europe and that we, therefore, have to build our defence to be able to fight without the Americans. We are well on our way and it will happen a lot faster if the USA leaves NATO officially. Russia is too weak and small to be a long term threat to Europe. They simple can not match what we can produce. As long as we keep Ukraine from falling, Russia is also not a threat to us in the short term. So if the USA leaves NATO, it is simple for us: Keep Ukraine from falling at all costs and build up European defence and weapon production as fast as humanly possible. We can and we will do that and Europe will be absolutely fine and safe.

the 25th Amendment was written for precisely this situation. Trump cannot think clearly. he cannot function effectively as president. unfortunately Republican Party leaders are weak, low-character people unwilling to even try acting honorably
