Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.

As of now, 44 people have been reported injured in the massive Russian strike on Kyiv and the Kyiv region. Another 17 people, tragically, were killed.
My condolences to their families and loved ones.
It was a heavy strike - 24 ballistic missiles, 4 Zircon/Oniks missiles, and another 115 drones, a significant number of them jet-powered. The main targets of the attack were warehouse facilities belonging to civilian businesses. There were also strikes on infrastructure and a railway station. These facilities had nothing to do with the war - a brewing company, construction materials warehouses, and civilian logistics tacilities.
Ballistic missile interceptors could have saved the lives of those killed today. It is very important that our partners understand that delays in supplying them, or an unwillingness to provide anti-ballistic systems, lead directly to such horrific casualties and destruction. Partners who are not yet ready to play a more active role in supplying interceptors can help by implementing new sanctions. A significant share of Russia's ballistic missile production is still not under sanctions. Even now. New steps are needed - from the G7, the European Union, and everyone who supports the protection of life. Thank you to those who are willing to help in this way.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 According to the Financial Times, Trump rejected Zelenskyy’s request for an additional 300 Patriot interceptor missiles, citing limited U.S. stockpiles. Trump reportedly said the missiles are needed to protect American assets in the Middle East and Gulf countries amid tensions with Iran.

Boeren klagen over droogte, maar zijn zelf de belangrijkste oorzaak ervan. Wil NL een vd grootste landbouwexporteurs ter wereld blijven, of minder droge bodem? Allebei kan niet. Neehee ook niet als BBB met vuist op tafel slaat in Brussel. Boerenprotest dient enkel belangen v grote agro-industrie.

Palantir hoovering up European defence and NHS contracts whilst funnelling earnings back to the US to pay negligible corporate tax is a complete failure of digital sovereignty. European states must stop enriching tech firms that drain public coffers. Is it time to ban them? #FBPE

Palantir funnels earnings to US to avoid European taxes, report finds

A new study finds that Palantir, which boasts of high profit margins in the U.S., barely scrapes a margin in Europe, which helps slash its tax bill.

BP expects capital expenditure in 2026 to be between $13.5 billion and $14 billion. Business as usual. More greenhouse gas emissions. More climate change. Greater impacts. Is that not climate "doomism"? Because it is dooming us to a 3°C to 5°C or more world that will not support humanity.

BP's Q2 profit more than doubles from a year ago

Just another casual reminder that you’re being laughed at by corporates because a) governments facilitate them and b) we don’t push back. Cost of living crisis, for you not for them.

Stop expecting Washington's tariffs to end the war in Ukraine. Western leaders must face reality: only sustained European defense production and direct military aid to Kyiv will force Putin to stop. (Read on — 🧵 1/15)
