Hungarian PM Péter Magyar: "I have just spoken by phone with the leaders of the Students List, who won the elections in Serbia, to congratulate them... I assured them of Hungary’s support. I was delighted to hear how much strength our victory in April had given them during this difficult struggle."

Et maintenant les Gilets Jaunes, que, dans un parfait mépris de classe, on réduisait à des revendications matérielles, appellent à manifester le 31 octobre pour « la défense des libertés publiques » et contre «la dérive autoritaire», objectifs politiques s'il en est. Félicitations au gouvernement !

www.lemonde.fr/idees/articl.... En apparence, une bonne idée. Sauf que, grâce au "génie de la recherche" (!) on nous propose en réalité une ultra-mal bouffe, devant tout à l'industrie agro-alimentaire. Et c'est signé par deux représentants de l'élite intellectuelle.

This might be hard for Americans to hear, but the USA getting humiliated by its abject failure as a power during this Iran War might be the best thing possible at this time. The country needs to understand there are consequences for electing a crook.

Evidemment, tout ceux qui profitent du drame pour cibler *exclusivement* les magistrats le font sciemment. Cela leur permet : - D'occulter les autres responsabilités (surtout celle des gouvernants successifs); - D'affaiblir un pouvoir qui les dérange (car à l'audace de les soumettre... à la loi)

La différence entre Grégoire @egregoire.bsky.social et Bournazel @pybournazel.bsky.social c'est que Emmanuel Grégoire fait ce qu'il dit. Ceci dit j'ose à peine imaginer les pressions subies par Bournazel, et en conséquence Edouard Philippe peut toujours se brosser pour obtenir mon suffrage en 2027.

Five years ago, our great American democracy was put to the test, and Donald Trump failed it. The danger he poses was clear then, and it remains clear now. We must never forget that.

"American dominance" is our new foreign policy. And it will create a counter-reaction, everywhere. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Fin 2025, il est extrêmement indécent d'entendre les Européens se plaindre du coût l'aide apportée à a l'Ukraine, car l'aide apportée par l'Ukraine a l'Europe (du sang et du temps) a incommensurable ment plus de valeur (4)

Do I understand correctly that there is now a dispute within the administration about whether this "peace plan" was written by Russians or Americans?

Watch to the end

The story of the vote in the USA last night is that the Democrats have an amazing opportunity to retake the center ground of US politics and have a strong working majority--while forcing the GOP to the far right. If the Dems do not do this, they have only themselves to blame.

Hungary's struggle for freedom under decades of brutal Russian rule lasted almost 45 years. Today, as the Russian-backed Orban regime attempts to drag the country back into darkness, a reminder of October 1956.
