Last thought on Swedish elections for tonight (more tomorrow). Results will take days. After 2018 elections it took 4 months to negotiate a new government coalition. In 2022 it took a month. Assuming the Left-Green-Center bloc win by a hair, things now will be far MORE complicated than 2018 & 2022.

If we ever needed a reminder about the dangers of taking polls at face value, this is it. In an exit poll at 20:00 tonight, Swedish Television predicted that the Left-Green-Center bloc would win the election by 4.5%. With almost almost 90% of districts reporting, their lead is 0.1%.

A fantastic example of 'Sometimes resistance is just being annoying as fuck.' Not a single moments public peace ever. No fun vacations, no nice meals out, no uninterupted shopping. No beach, no theme park, no tourist town should be enjoyable for them for the rest of their lives.

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance berated President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine on Friday, a public confrontation unlike any seen between an American president and foreign leader in modern times. Here are key excerpts from the heated exchange.

Excerpts From the Fiery Exchange Between Trump and Zelensky at the White House

During the Oval Office meeting, President Trump told the Ukrainian leader: “You’re either going to make a deal or we’re out.”
