Dá pra fazer toda uma tese sobre as pessoas se informando cada vez mais pelo celular e como isso aterroriza algumas elites políticas brasileiras, mas não é nem 8 da manhã, então deixa pra depois. #informação #celular #política
A qualidade das nossas elites é péssima! Gente sem valores morais, alienada, muitas vezes corrupta. O maior trabalho de reconstrução do país será reformar as elites, mas é um dilema: quem vai fazer isso? Será que passamos do ponto de inflexão? Muita gente boa já se mandou, não por acaso. É um quadro desolador… #Elites #Corrupção #ReformaSocial
Umar Kremlev, a Russian oligarch at the center of the controversy for allegedly financing Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding, has had a remarkable rise in the world of boxing and Russian political elites, despite his criminal past for extortion and assault. (translated)

Most shocking about Trump 2nd term is not the epic grift, ICE paramilitary violence or the assaults on free speech. These abuses, while horrifying, are predictable. What's stunning is the capitulation of so many US elites to Trump’s vulgar authoritarianism https://t.co/EI02lJyKrL #Trump #Authoritarianism #USPolitics #US
Vladimir Putin considers feminism to be degenerate Western values, while his regime exerts authoritarian control over bodies in Russia, advocating for an ideal of masculinity and physical preparation among both the elites and the population to restore national power. (translated)

The historian Johann Chapoutot analyzes how the German bourgeoisie facilitated the rise of the Nazis to power in his work "The Tipping Point," stating that the servility of the elites allowed Hitler to quickly establish his authority despite his electoral minority. (translated)

In the article, Jérémy Silvares Jerónimo addresses the political return in Portugal, expressing skepticism about the effectiveness and seriousness of the rulers, questioning whether the motion of censure against the Government by Chega truly represents a significant change or if it is just another episode of the political-media circus that characterizes national politics, while criticizing the corruption and mediocrity that permeate the Portuguese elites.

O que esperar da rentrée política?
Quand l’AfD triomphe, Poutine jubile, le RN roule les mécaniques, LFI rêve de chaos. Et, comme toujours, les cyniques accusent «les élites qui méprisent le peuple opprimé». La République de Weimar est tombée quand la dénigrer est devenu la règle dans les salons et les rédactions. #politique #République #Histoire
What has become glaring is the great failure of the elites. The mission of leaders is to protect the inhabitants. When they fail at that, they suffer from discredit. We want more from them. They should leave! (translated)
Welcome back populism! The vote in Saxony, where AfD is close to an absolute majority, is a signal. Right and left have nothing to do with it: it is the people's rebellion against the elites. Germany has entered a serious political crisis, with a chancellor who wants war. (translated)
En France on n’a pas demandé l’avis du peuple pour faire rentrer 550 000 immigrés l’année dernière… Évidemment que les élites s’en foutent car dans les beaux quartiers ça n’a aucune conséquence. Aujourd’hui on a une vengeance du peuple https://t.co/9fdRCEnUzH #immigration #France #politique

SciLight Global South Sustainable Development (GSSD) – Street Art as Participatory Infrastructure and Community Mental Health SOURCE: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/scilight-global-south-sustainable-development-gssd-sardella-ph-d--ojtlf/ It is with considerable satisfaction that I have the honour of announcing the publication of our scholarly contribution, produced in collaboration with Professor Matteo Mantuano (Unitré, Università degli Studi di Milano), with the generous support of the Stramurales International Street Art Festival, Stornara Life APS, under the direction of Lino Lombardi, and the Banda dei Fischietti of Stornara, Puglia, Italy: "Street Art as Participatory Infrastructure and Community Mental Health: The Case of the Stramurales Festival of Stornara Life APS" Global South & Sustainable Development, 2026, 1(1), 6 🔗 https://www.sciltp.com/journals/gssd/articles/2602003135 Published by Casa Editrice SciLight, with its headquarters at Suite 4002, Level 4, 447 Collins Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000, Australia. What Does this Research Concern itself with? The present study examines the Stramurales International Street Art Festival of Stornara (Puglia) as an innovative instrument of participatory public health intervention, analysed through the theoretical lenses of environmental psychology, resilience theory, and the emerging framework of "EnvironMental Health." Stornara constitutes a paradigmatic instance of the structural violence that afflicts rural Southern Italy: youthful emigration, infrastructural deterioration, and collective despondency together form a constellation of deeply interconnected public health crises. The Stramurales model—founded by Maestro Lino Lombardi under the auspices of the association Stornara Life APS—addresses these considerable challenges by means of three cardinal democratic mechanisms: the voluntary participation of property owners, the democratic selection of mural content through annual community assemblies, and a system of transparent governance expressly designed to forestall appropriation by local political élites. Principal Findings ISTAT data document a reduction in the annual rate of youth emigration from approximately 175 per 1,000 young adults during the period 2014–2017 to approximately 118 per 1,000 between 2018 and 2022: a diminution of some 33 per cent, notably coincident with the festival's inception. Whilst one must naturally refrain from attributing this variation causally and exclusively to the intervention in question, the quantitative evidence integrates compellingly with a rich body of qualitative testimony: participants who now describe their community no longer as "a place from which one flees", but rather as "a place actively engaged in becoming something". The psychological mechanisms thus documented — affective regulation, social cohesion, narrative reconstruction, and collective self-efficacy — are produced not by the murals as such, but by the democratic process through which they are brought into being. It is participatory governance, one must insist, that constitutes the genuine therapeutic agent. Why Does This Matter at the Global Level? Through comparative analysis with experiences drawn from the Global South—among them Casa Kolacho in Medellín, post-apartheid initiatives in South Africa, and festival projects within the Brazilian favelas—the study demonstrates the transferability of this model to contexts of structural marginalisation of markedly different character and provenance. The implications for public policy are unambiguous: democratic governance of urban space is not a procedural nicety but a fully-fledged therapeutic intervention, at once economically sustainable and eminently replicable. This work forms part of a broader research programme initiated with the publication of Street Art as Public Health Infrastructure in the Harvard Health and Human Rights Journal, and aspires to contribute, both theoretically and empirically, to the consolidation of an integrated discipline at the intersection of cultural policy, urban design, and public health. I remain profoundly grateful to all those in Stornara who possessed the singular courage to paint their own future.

Señor Ocampo, no hubo en la historia del país un gobierno que favoreció más a Avianca. Uds sacaron a los funcionarios de la @sicsuper y la @AerocivilCol que tenían decidido negar la integración con VIVA e investigaron todos los detalles de una operación oscura e irregular. Petro, Sergio Paris y la SIC se arrodillaron ante Avianca. Uds sacaron a "los trabajadores" técnicos y honrados para favorecer a los dueños de Avianca-Viva con un pacto de elites de espalda al país. #Avianca #Colombia #Corrupción
🔴🇫🇷INFO - Adresses de luxe, soirées jet-set, costumes sur mesure, hôtel aux Maldives, compagne au sang bleu… Comment dénoncer le « #système » et les « #élites » quand on y est immergé jusqu’au cou ? Une position intenable qui inquiète au #RN. « Jordan #Bardella a toujours été attiré par tout ce qui brille, le luxe c’est son point faible », affirme un ancien conseiller. Côté fréquentations « bling bling », Jordan #Bardella et Cyril #Hanouna se connaissent bien. Avec le jeune animateur télé Jordan de Luxe, ils ont longtemps écumé des adresses huppées, de Paris à Saint-Tropez. Début juillet, le Canard enchaîné révélait que le président du RN s’était rendu au Jimmy’z, une boîte de nuit sélect de #Monaco, dans la foulée du Grand Prix. Prix des tables affichées ce soir-là dans le club : 25 000€ ! À Paris, Bardella est régulièrement repéré dans les lieux les plus clinquants, notamment au Cercle de l’Union interalliée, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, pour déjeuner avec des francs-maçons de la Grande Loge nationale française. Pour être sûr de le croiser, il faut se rendre chez Laurent, ancien pavillon de chasse de Louis XIV. On y croise en effet Sébastien #Chenu, Jean-Philippe #Tanguy, Erik #Tegnér, le directeur du magazine identitaire Frontières, et nombre de têtes d’affiche de #CNews. Sans y venir aussi fréquemment, Pascal #Praud y déjeune de temps en temps... Jordan Bardella, le jet-setteur ou quand le train de vie XXL d’un responsable politique finit par poser une question : peut-on durablement dissocier ce que l’on est de ce que l’on prétend défendre ? #Politique #Élites #Luxe
Contrary to what many want us to believe, Europe has its own identity and culture. We are much more similar than some elites want to sell us. Europeans must unite and defend themselves from the threats and enemies that hate us. (translated)
In the face of the heat wave, we don't even have a window shutter plan, we have a "survival cover for the windows" plan. In the face of the fires, firefighters are fighting without protective hoods. Our elites have failed, and for a long time. They no longer protect the French people. (translated)
