@Strandjunker LOL Can't read? NATO formed when the US was going to go. We were there for their protection when they were vulnerable. EU can defend themselves now. We don't care. You get what you give. Germans show up to train with brooms instead of guns. Let's see how those brooms work now.
English
US troops are not in Germany to protect Germany. They’re there because the US needs bases to conduct operations beyond the North American continent. If Trump withdraws them, he will harm the United States, not Germany.
It’s absurd how many Americans fail to grasp this.
English
@JohnCleese lol no one has betrayed anyone. All we did was ask our alleged allies to do their fair share. They said yes but did not do their fair share. So who was betrayed? You get what you give. When you abuse generosity don't be surprised when it disappears. You get what you give..
English
But...what happens when Trump is replaced ?
Is the whole cabinet in the service of Putin ?
Joni Askola@joni_askola
Many Europeans knew exactly where Russia and China stood as geopolitical adversaries. There were no illusions there, but experiencing this American betrayal is uniquely devastating. It is a harsh blow when a trusted, long-time ally breaks the partnership

@Billsfan1991DMP @JohnCleese lol takes one to know one so thank you.
English
@RCragwall @JohnCleese How?
He isn't cleaning shit, but he sure is cashing in on you fools.

In five years, when all the truths come out, people will not be able to believe the ineptitude of this man

Trump: “I think Ukraine, militarily, they’re defeated. They had 159 ships. Every ship is underwater. Every one of their planes has been shot down.” Yes, he mixed up Iran and Ukraine. He really did
English
@elonmusk lol well DOH. Who doesn't know that? For such a smart guy to miss that is truly shocking.

Ancient cultures were extremely violent, not “peace-loving ecologists” at all!

David Reich on how much ancient DNA evidence has overturned so much consensus thinking how ancient cultures spread. "It wasn't peaceful, it wasn't friendly, it wasn't nice. Some of our archaeologist co-authors were just really distressed."

Pulling U.S. troops out of Germany hurts us more than them.

Pete Hegseth showed the American people this week that he’s unfit to serve. There’s a reason I’ve introduced Articles of Impeachment against him and I urge my colleagues to join our effort.
English
@SenMarkKelly I say get rid of the TSA. Not necessary and they can all go find a job elsewhere.
English
I spoke with TSA officers in Arizona who were working without pay. They shared what they were going through, so I introduced a bill to protect the credit scores of federal workers during government shutdowns.
They didn't choose to stop getting paid. Their credit score shouldn't suffer because of it.

King Charles’s speech to Congress is one of the best in history.

@theerealtao God said let there be light and the universe was brought into existence.
English
@Kasparov63 It's fact. US bases-troops around the world were for the protection of allies not the US while they recovered from WWII devastation. We assisted in the rebuilding. It is done. Time to stand on their own 2 ft. They either help or not. They said no. We pack our bags and head home.
English
Note the underlying stupidity behind these threats. US bases and troops around the world are there for US global force projection, not to protect Spain or Italy or whatever he thinks. America’s enemies would love it if he picked up his toys and went home.
The Bulwark@BulwarkOnline
Q: "You talked about possibly pulling out some troops of Germany. Would you be considering the same thing for Spain and Italy?" Trump: "I probably will…Italy has not been of any help to us and Spain has been horrible."
English
No strategy. No rational purpose. Pure idiocy.

Does anyone believe these church fires are coincidental ?
Yossi BenYakar@YossiBenYakar
BREAKING NEWS from France: The historic Saint-Cyriaque church in Montenach built between 1884 and 1886 and which survived two world wars has been ravaged by fire. Around sixty firefighters were called to the scene. No casualties reported. Yet another European church goes up in flames. Europe is watching its Christian heritage literally go up in smoke — and the silence is deafening.

Texas needs to explain to me why it’s 50° in May.

As a German, I find the political situation in United States very stressful. How hard must it be for the American people???
English
@PhilStudge @yvette_harms @jonburkeUK I know. I didn't negate their existence. I stated not feasible where I live and it's ok for me to express that one size does not fit all. Don't care what you call your public transportation you provided an image of. One size still doesn't fit all. It is what it is.
English
@RCragwall @yvette_harms @jonburkeUK We are speaking about transportation. Refusing to see alternatives doesn't negate their existence.
(BTW, those aren't buses)
English
The reason there will be no ‘fuel crisis’ in the Netherlands is that every town, city, & village in the land is connected by fully-segregated cycle lanes.
It’s possible for the Dutch to simply stop driving while fuel is short and prices are high.
That’s real energy resilience.
English
@RCragwall @eevblog It is English. A dialect of English. Or maybe as you tried to describe, a creole language. And thus cannot spell properly.
English
Americans, if you could stop using the word gas to mean petrol, that would be great, thanks.

@RCragwall @JohnCleese What did he do for the people exactly?
English
@benjyminty @jonburkeUK Sure that's great for you. I don't care one way or another here. If they yes then yes and if they say no then no. Not going to change how I travel around. lol
English
@RCragwall @jonburkeUK No one cycles from Rotterdam to Amsterdam on a daily basis. But the fact you can do it safely means that all possible journeys in between are safe to cycle.
