None of this is pretty, I know, but the Europeans urgently need to start acting in a geopolitically reasonable way. In particular, the likely future German #Chancellor should make his first inaugural visit to Beijing together with Volodymyr #Zelenskyj and Emmanuel #Macron. If, however, #Merz goes to Washington instead, possibly alone, then #Europe is dead as a doornail as #Putin and #Trump will divide it up brutally between them. Sadly, it must be assumed that Merz isn't smart enough for this.

US President Donald Trump hailed the conservative alliance's victory in Germany's election, criticizing the Scholz regime's policy on energy and immigration. Friedrich Merz, set to become the next chancellor, plans a strict stance on undocumented migration, social welfare tourism, and crime, signaling a rightward shift.

"The #chancellor’s own calculations are off if she attaches no #economicvalue to #nature. In one #scientificstudy that tried to quantify the economic contribution of #wildlife, #researchers found that losing pest-eating #bats in North American #farmland would cost farmers several billions of dollars in #croplosses."

It is easy to fall foul of #goodhartslaw and get growth figures that have lost their meaning - the experience of the last decade and a half of the German Democratic Republic is salutary! Genuine growth would go up as a result of reducing unnecessary uncertainty - for instance increasing the quality and reliability of official statistics and improving the auditing of local government - and releasing the 'animal spirits' of entrepreneurs -which could mean a change of #chancellor !

Fair enough but worth remembering that the Bank's remit and indeed the composition of its monetary policy committee are set by #hmtreasury . They could be altered given sufficient political will there - although I suspect that we may have to wait for the next #chancellor for that to happen! Looked at objectively the case for a 2% inflation target rather than say one of 4% seems less than overwhelming.

Everything you need to know about the #Jerusalem Post's "#journalism":

"Since October 7: #IDF kills 600 terrorists in West Bank, arrests 2,000 #Hamas members"

Suuure they did. 🤮

jpost.com/breaking-news/articl

Even admitting freely #Israel's violations of #IHL including war crimes:

"The Air Force has carried out about 70 strikes"

"The IDF has destroyed 29 homes"

According to 🇩🇪 #Chancellor #Scholz that's okay (no doubts), boycotting 🇮🇱's illegal products he finds "#loathsome" and no arms #embargo.

Pediatric intensive care surgeon Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan (#MSF) giving testimony on what it is like in #Gaza during the first ever "#DNC Panel on Palestinian Rights". Just listen (and cry if you need or want to):

youtu.be/zy6eu4IYDoQ?feature=s

On a personal note: She'd probably never be heard on an "#SPD-#Parteitag" in #Germany. #Chancellor Olaf #Scholz would likely just loath (#eklig) her humanity (but not so much what #Israel did to those children).

Exactly 88 (…) years later, strikingly similar optics.

I'll never understand those #Germans but their war hungry maniacs sure do: a German #Chancellor posing with one or a couple female Olympic athletes and genocidal war becomes a literal no-brainer there.

Scariest thing: #Hitler looks less insane than #Scholz (aka. #Genocide Olaf); time will tell.
