I mean, he just needed to look at Vettel’s broken spirit after spending some years at Scuderia. Let’s face it: there won't be an eighth title for him and not with Ferrari for a long time.

I watched a documentary on Arte a few months ago, since I never really knew much about Allende and the circumstances of the coup d’état.

Two aspects I found personally interesting:

  1. A reactionary and conservative opposition — backed by powerful elites and foreign influence — was blocking all progress and reforms initiated by the democratically elected Allende government.

  2. Allende’s response to the sabotage and obstruction by the conservative and right-wing opposition was to continue seeking dialogue, uphold the constitution, and try to avoid a constitutional crisis at all costs.

A lot of similarities and parallels can be seen today in how conservative and right-wing parties operate — using the same playbook we saw back then in Chile. A strategy all too familiar, and somehow still (and once again) disturbingly effective.

JD Vance. Fascist vice president of the USA.

That's a caricature of him that went viral after his infamous quote "did you ever say thank you" during Ukranian President Zelenskys visit in the white house.

Let Tesla fail and Musk too. You don't want to save Tesla as long as the fascist Musk profits from it. Let all his companies fail.

Absolutely. On the other hand this shenanigans put pressure on our economy and we need to get back on track and prepare for the next round of Trumps grifter moves.

The last one was just a grifter move to funnel more cash to his billionaire buddies.

This time, it’s more strategic — the goal is to weaken China. The alliance between Russia, Iran, and China is built on a shared opposition to the U.S. and Western democracy. But Trump’s return throws a wrench into that dynamic.

Putin sees an opportunity: Isolate and economically hurt China, and improve Russias own leverage on the global stage — all while using Trump as a tool once again.

Nice community financed radio channels. Highly recommend. They still need $12k to keep operation going this month, please support if you can :)

We had our own: Wirecard. But who knew it was tied to shady dealings and connected to Putin? Certainly not the EY auditors /s

While Merz’s move might not have any immediate impact on the polls - since the CDU is currently leading - it will soon create a much bigger problem: no party across the democratic spectrum will be willing to form a coalition with him.

He may win over some radicals and see a temporary boost (or no negative impact) in the polls, which will likely lead him to believe he’s on the right track. But in the long run, he’s undermining his own trustworthiness.

Imagine being in a coalition with him, and then he starts pushing radical policies that have no support from his partners or the democratic parties. He’ll likely work with the far righters of AfD.

That’s a person you simply can’t trust or work with. The CDU may still win the election, but Merz has effectively destroyed his chances of becoming Chancellor.

His only remaining path to power would be through a power-hungry, partisan approach that prioritizes politics over the country’s well-being and democracy - ultimately paving the way for working with the AfD, which would be disastrous for Germany’s democratic foundations.

At this point, he became Germany’s version of Trump.

Seriously. Americans act like scared puppies, barking but backing down when facing an inbred orange pomeranian.

The people have the power. Organize statewide protests, block roads, and mobilize the working class to stand against fascism. Be more like the French citoyens.

Stop waiting for someone else to save your asses. This is 2016 all over again, when you pinned your hopes on Mueller or some other investigator. No one is coming.

Stop whining. Take action. Fight fascism.

 

According to information gathered by Motorsport.com, the agreement between Doohan and Alpine is done, and the signing and subsequent announcement (expected in the coming days) will confirm Jack alongside Gasly for the 2025 season.

Currently, Doohan is at Spa with Alpine for the Pirelli tests, replacing the unavailable Esteban Ocon. Jack is well known to Alpine’s new team principal, Oliver Oakes, having raced for the HiTech team, which Oakes co-founded. Doohan is also supported by Mark Webber, a former driver managed by Briatore, with whom he still has good relations.

 

Ausgeprägt rechte und rechtsextreme Einstellungen sind in der Bundesrepublik seit 2016 nicht stärker oder weniger stark verbreitet. Die Bindekraft der AfD in diesem Milieu hat sich deutlich verstärkt und die Anhängerschaft fühlt sich durch rechtsextreme Strömungen wenig abgeschreckt.

Die Befragung macht deutlich, dass sich die deutsche Gesellschaft im Zustand großer Sorge befindet. 81 Prozent blicken derzeit mit Beunruhigung in die Zukunft, nur 14 Prozent mit Zuversicht. Vergleichbare Werte wurden bisher nur zwischen 2003 und 2005 in einer Phase hoher Arbeitslosigkeit gemessen. Das sind Ergebnisse eines DeutschlandTrend extra, den Infratest dimap im Auftrag des WDR durchgeführt hat und der sich vertieft mit den Einstellungen und Überzeugungen der AfD-Wählerschaft beschäftigt.

Spanish FA president Luis Rubiales has been provisionally suspended by Fifa following his conduct at the women’s World Cup final in Sydney last weekend.

Rubiales has refused to resign from his post after kissing Jenni Hermoso – who has stressed she did not consent – on the lips, prompting Fifa to step in.

A Fifa statement said: “The chairman of the Fifa Disciplinary Committee, Jorge Ivan Palacio (Colombia), in use of the powers granted by article 51 of the Fifa Disciplinary Code (FDC), has decided today to provisionally suspend Mr. Luis Rubiales from all football-related activities at national and international level.

 

The Spanish football federation has threatened to sue the 79 women’s football players who signed a letter in which they refused to play for their country as long as the federation president, Luis Rubiales, remains in his post.

In a statement, the federation said that it would take the “necessary legal action” and told the players that “playing for the national team is an obligation on any member of the federation called upon to do so”.
