Let them destroy Los Angeles or San Diego, a small price for the safety of the world. These are the words😬 Los Angeles and San Diego are located in California, the state that symbolizes American progressivism and is a constant target of Trump’s rhetoric. Out of magnanimity, he could also symbolically offer Atlanta, which is another completely Democratic island and a crucial hub for civil rights; it would follow the very same political scheme. The geopolitical value of the "Blue States": Politically (or ironically🤥) sacrificing the large blue metropolitan areas (Democratic) serves to warm the crowds of deeply rural or conservative states like Nebraska, where the electorate perceives those cities as distant, alien, and ideologically opposed. The more evident the nonsense is, the more it is hidden from the eyes of the fools who believe it. (translated)

Due to the housing crisis and a rise in social tensions, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced early legislative elections for November 29, although his chances of success seem slim against a consolidated right-wing bloc. #Logement #PedroSánchez #ÉlectionsEspagnoles (translated)

"I told the president that we have a majority for early elections, a majority that can be verified. Secondly, I told the president that he must stop the degradation of the presidential institution by spreading lies in the public space. He accused us of undermining the financial stability of the state, which is not the case, since we were not in power. He accused us of being outside the Euro-Atlantic current, and I explained to him what the definition of Romania's Euro-Atlanticism is, the unconditional attachment to the three treaties that are the basis of Romania's Euro-Atlanticism: the NATO treaty, the EU treaty, and the EU functioning treaty. (...) I reproached him for starting with an unworthy attack on a party, unjustified, illegitimate, and I urged him to choose if he wants to be president or Parliament," also mentioned the leader of the AUR senators, Petrişor Peiu. #AUR #alegeriantropate #crizăpolitică (translated)

“President Nicușor Dan chose to publicly state the following: ‘I exclude the AUR Party from forming the majority.’ And this is where the issue arises that needs to be addressed to Nicușor Dan: firstly, that he exceeds his constitutional duties. Practically, he becomes both president and Parliament, which is not the case in our constitutional system.” Later, Petrișor Peiu declared, after the consultations at the Cotroceni Palace, that he asked President Nicușor Dan to stop “rolling out lies in the public space.” #NicușorDan #Politică #AUR (translated)

Veronika Abelová wrote that the South Moravian governor Grolich was beginning to amuse her. She referred to his words that his opponents are not used to someone making fun of them, and they dislike it. According to Abelová, they wanted to discredit him, get rid of him, and demotivate him, but just like in the case of the president, they encountered someone who managed to proceed in a new way and respond in kind. She added that people might end up voting for the Christian Democrats again. #Grolich #politika #volby (translated)

Sandu Negrea claimed that fears regarding a possible rise to power of Călin Georgescu did not come true, and negative effects occurred under the governance of those he called "pro-Europeans." He stated that the leu was at 4.97 in November 2024 and was expected to reach 5.40, that gasoline prices had risen from 6 to 11 lei, and that investors had been driven away, unemployment had increased, and Russian or possibly Russian drones had arrived in Romania. Negrea also wrote that the parties in power no longer had the support of a quarter of the electorate and criticized the president for allegedly saying he could not organize elections due to external partners. He accused Georgescu's opponents of having destroyed institutions and argued that Romania risked becoming a bargaining chip for Russia in exchange for cheap gas and the regaining of its goodwill. He also described the person who came to power as unstable. In conclusion, Negrea stated that a young entrepreneur from near Brașov, whom he identified as Ciprian Cristian, had personally received 13 million euros reimbursed by the Romanian state after the elections. He mocked his mathematical studies, referring to a French summer school called "Soros University." #România #economia #politică (translated)

V americké politické praxi se těmto mincím a plaketám říká challenge coins a rozdávají se po krabicích prakticky každému sponzorovi či návštěvě, která nezakopne v předsíni o koberec. V českém marketingu se z toho ale během vteřiny stane posvátná relikvie a ekvivalent Nobelovy ceny zkombinované s Řádem bílého lva. #politika #marketing #challengecoins

Nadcházející měsíc bude velká volební divočina: 🇧🇷 Obhájí Lula, nebo bude pokračovat pravicová vlna v Jižní Americe? 🇷🇸 Padne po letech Vučičova parta v Srbsku? 🇮🇱 Skončí Netanyahu jako premiér? 🇺🇸 Získají demokraté Senát? A všechno to jsou skoro hody mincí... 😅 #volby #politika #JižníAmerika

Doamna ambasadoare MAGA de la Atena e acuzata ca a inspirat căderea guvernului de la București, vinovat ca nu vrea sa cumpere pepeni cu 100 de dolari kilul de la Dăbuleni-A-Lago. Bine, nu e ambasadoare. E sales agent. E purtător de cuvânt al lăcomiei familiei si prietenilor lui Trump. E general in retragere din Armata Minciunii Naționale numita Fox News. O inteleg. Ce nu inteleg e de ce românii trebuie sa se ploconeasca in fata vânzătorilor de iluzii nucleare si gaz la preț de specula. De ce? Ca ne apară America? Cum sa ne mai apere cel mai important aliat vestic al Rusiei? Cum sa ne mai apere o administratie pentru care totul e de vânzare? Pai daca iese mai bine cu noi predați in partea ailaltă, credeți ca putem face ceva? Daca Rusia da 10 miliarde si noi avem doar doua, cam cum credeți ca va decide The Swampshinghton? Putem să-l dam jos si pe Patriarh, ca ăștia tot ne vând! Asta e esenta MAGA: doar America contează (si nici ea toată, doar fanii lui Big Orange). Restul: be damned! Restul sunt aliați de unică folosință. Clienți de țepe stars and striped. Fraieri olimpici cu parul creț, fura idealul din coteț! Mizeria asta cere un raspuns. Astept idei de la voi, caci liderii noștri încă mai strâng bani de microscop, să-și vadă testiculele! #MAGA #politică #România

Televiziunea americană de știri CNN va deveni curând conservatoare, ba chiar trumpistă.

https://t.co/ssaXdXUjwH Monsieur Labeaume, relisez (ou lisez) mon Cadre financier avant de jouer au professeur Dumbledore. Vous qualifiez Éric Duhaime d’« alchimiste budgétaire » parce que le Cadre financier du @PconservateurQc intègre des effets dynamiques. C’est moins de la magie que de la lecture. Vous auriez dû ouvrir l’Annexe A du Cadre financier PCQ, « Effets dynamiques » écrite pour les nuls. Ce n’est pas de la poudre de perlimpinpin. C’est exactement ce que mesure déjà le simulateur fiscal de la Chaire de recherche en fiscalité et en finances publiques de l’Université de Sherbrooke : effet direct, effet indirect et effet comportemental. Le Directeur parlementaire du budget à Ottawa applique la même logique, avec des élasticités prudentes. Des économistes québécois le documentent depuis des années. Le @PconservateurQc ne prétend pas qu’une baisse d’impôt « se paie toute seule ». Il refuse l’hypothèse inverse — l’élasticité nulle — que ces outils ont déjà écartée. Récupération retenue : 15 à 18 % sur le montant personnel de base. Ce n’est pas de l’or fabriqué avec du plomb. C’est plutôt du travail de fourmi de Poufsouffle : méthodique, documenté, sans baguette magique.   Vous trouvez « cocasse » de réduire 20 000 postes par attrition. Pourtant, huit jours avant votre chronique, La Presse vous présentait comme le champion du « régime minceur » : près de 800 postes coupés à Québec, environ 15 % de l’effectif, « sans mettre la hache », par non-remplacement des départs. Ce qui était de la gestion responsable à l’hôtel de ville devient de l’ésotérisme dès qu’on l’applique à l’État. La CAQ, elle, a ajouté de l’ordre de 100 000 employés au secteur public depuis 2018. Résultat ? Budget de la santé en hausse d’environ 58 %, attente médiane aux urgences allongée de 41 minutes. Page 39 du Cadre : Sonya Lebel, président du Secrétariat du Conseil du trésor de la CAQ,  a elle-même déjà envisagé, dans des travaux internes, une cible de l’ordre de 3 % des dépenses de portefeuille. Le PCQ vise beaucoup moins, sans toucher aux services de première ligne.   Quant à la déréglementation et aux barrières interprovinciales, le Cadre n’invente rien : il retient une portion seulement des hausses de PIB documentées par des sommités en économie et le FMI — de l’ordre de 1 à 4 % selon les années. Le Québec a encore 27 exceptions à l’accord de libre-échange canadien. L’Ontario en a zéro. Ce n’est pas de la magie. C’est de la paperasse. 
Parlons de vos propres « grands succès financiers », le Centre Vidéotron. Construction sous le budget, d’accord. Exploitation : onze ans, et la Ville a encore dû renvoyer le loyer à Québecor presque chaque année — quelque 25 millions $ pour éponger des déficits. Les Nordiques, eux, n’ont jamais débarqué.  Un amphithéâtre payé par les contribuables pour un rêve de ligue majeure, ce n’est pas de l’alchimie. C’est de la politique spectacle.   Le Cadre PCQ refuse les trucs comptables du PQ, de la CAQ et du PLQ pour balancer les livres: ajout d’écarts à résorber (vous connaissez?), dépouillement de la réserve d’urgence en cas de choc financier (genre: tarifs) et inscription de transferts fédéraux non signés. Il refuse aussi de détourner les versements du Fonds des générations comme le propose QS. Il présente des gestes de contrôle rigoureux identifiés et des allègements chiffrés. Votre texte, lui, mélange Harry Potter, le chien de Pavlov et Northvolt pour éviter de discuter les chiffres. Les Québécois n’ont pas besoin d’un élixir d’immortalité. Ils ont besoin qu’on arrête d’embaucher des dizaines de milliers de personnes pendant que les civières s’empilent. Ce n’est pas de la prestidigitation. C’est de l’arithmétique.

Les contribuables étouffent pendant que l’État engraisse.  Avec le PCQ, on ose sonner la fin de la récréation. Plus de tours de passe-passe digne de Poudlard, plus de pierre philosophale : juste du sérieux, des chiffres et un peu de travail de fourmi. #PolitiqueQc #Économie #Fiscalité
