When people explain Trump helping Russia by saying Putin has "dirt" on him, they're absolving Trump of responsibility. In blackmail, the target is coerced to act against their will. I don't think the "dirt" theory intends to argue Trump's a victim and would otherwise be acting better. But it does.

Frederik Vad wrote that he did not know Søren Gade personally and had not worked closely with him either. After Vad's speech about his "third realization" in the Parliament in April 2024, which according to him triggered a massive storm with shouts in the street, media criticism, and harsh comments on anonymous debate boards, Gade wrote to him. Vad shared the text message with Gade's permission and noted that only a few colleagues had reached out that early. He believed that some had waited to see if it would be worth it, while Gade contacted him before the situation was clarified. Vad wrote that the experience had taught him something about good collegiality and thanked Gade as he was now leaving Christiansborg. #dkpol #dkpol #kollegaskab #fællesskab (translated)

Interest on interest criticized environmentalist Henrik Jalalian for his statements in Agenda about natural forests being rapidly logged and being completely gone in 25 years, according to a report from the Forest Agency. The writer claimed that the agency itself had rejected the conclusions of the report. According to Interest on interest, the data was still used to justify political proposals that threatened the forestry industry, restricted property rights, and would cost taxpayers billions. The writer also questioned Jalalian's reasoning about forest areas excluded from forestry and objected to natural forests being treated as a clear, scientifically established category. The writer argued that the debate should be based on facts rather than scare figures and political slogans. Interest on interest stated that forest owners maintained, utilized, and renewed the forest, and that problems within the industry were not solved by incorrect information or by casting suspicion on the entire sector. #Skogsbruk #Miljö #Politik (translated)

Mikkel Andersson wrote that in the early 2010s he met a group of young university students in a pub in Lublin in eastern Poland. He described them as left-leaning, inclusive, and critical of the national conservative party Law and Justice (PiS), but stated that they did not reject non-Western immigration to Poland. According to Andersson, they then referred to Sweden's experiences with immigration. He wrote that the meeting came to his mind after Hungary's and Poland's leaders, who according to him had succeeded markedly more right-leaning predecessors, had linked the riots in France to immigration. Andersson described that connection as correct. #Polen #Indvandring #Venstreorienteret (translated)

I believe measures have been taken to convince Ukraine to capitulate. I'm not saying this is exactly the objective pursued by our partners. I don't want to believe that our American partners think the war against Russia can be ended more quickly at Ukraine's expense. But that is exactly the impression they leave," Zelensky said Sunday in Kyiv in an interview with Bloomberg. #Ucraina #SUA #Zelenski (translated)
