Trump has now set a deadline for Thursday next week, where he demands Ukraine signs an angreement to meet Putin’s demands: — No NATO membership — A reduction of its military to just 600,000 troops — Accepting the loss of Donetsk, Luhansk, Crimea, and most of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia — Forcing Ukrainian elections within 100 days While Russia will — Reenter the G8 — Have all sanctions lifted This is not a peace agreement. This is capitulation.

If a pyromaniac wanted to burn down your house and you were fighting back, Marco Rubio would suggests you instead let him burn down half your house as a compromise. #BothSides

Always looking for a hiking trip, today I read about our local forest called Polakkerskoven (Forest of the Polish people). But why that name? Legend has it, during the Danish-Swedish War of 1658, a group of Polish mercenaries camped in this forest. When they were defeated, 23 of their skulls were cut open and mortared into the outer wall of our church. At first I thought that was just a good story. Then I looked up the pictures, and sure enough… Let us hope Trump does not attack Greenland.

In a response to Democratic politicians urging US military personnel to to disobey unlawful orders from the US administration, Trump now writes on Truth Social that their seditious behavior is punishable by death. Watching this US administration is like watching hostage takers in a bank who keep escalating their demands, on and on… until they finally leave the scene in chains. We all know where this ends: Vote in 2026.

This is the wildest political article I have read in 2025: While Trump and his advisor Steve Bannon claim that the Epstein files are all about guilty Democrats, e-mails reveal that Bannon was working with Jeffrey Epstein to ensure crypto party donations without federal oversight. In exchange, Bannon was casting himself as being all for a movement against sexual predators, while promising Epstein that he would be able to delay the rise of that movement by 10+ years.

Steve Bannon Offered Trump’s MAGA as Shield for Jeffrey Epstein

Jeffrey Epstein helped shape Trump’s MAGA movement through a secret alliance with its chief architect, Steve Bannon, who told him it could help h...

Breaking: Trump has signed the bill to release the Epstein files.

The judge discovers major procedural error by Trump's prosecutor in the Comey case, which means the case might be dismissed. I cannot wait.

I need to ask this of someone with insight into Nazi history: I know that Hitler's regime confiscated a lot of Jewish properties, but I have been unable to find out, if this confiscation practice was more widespread. Would the Nazis also confiscate the homes of communists, gay people, black people, or whomever else they arrested?

All these new AI capabilities are awesome. I have a huge library of political documents, and I needed to look something up in Trump's Project 2025, and then — I kid you not — Mac Spotlight Search brought up Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler. As they say, "Once you go Mac… you never go back."

25 killed and 93 wounded in Ternopil, eastern Ukraine, after Putin aimed his ballistic missiles towards civilian homes. When Hitler's V1 cruise missiles hit London, we responded by ending Nazi Germany. What are we waiting for?
