We need to trust our own democratic institutions to take decisions on our behalf. It’s as simple as that. Sadly, UN SECCO is no longer fit for purpose. I don’t see us deploying forces outside of Ireland but we ought to have the right to do so without asking permission from #Democracy #Sovereignty #InternationalRelations

The Supreme Court of the United States authorized the continuation of the construction of Donald Trump's ballroom at the White House, without ruling on the legality of the project, causing disappointment for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which challenges the initiative.

The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily approved the controversial construction of President Donald Trump's ballroom at the White House while it examines the legal situation regarding the lawsuit from the preservation organization National Trust for Historic Preservation. (translated)

❗️ JEST BARDZO DOBRZE. x #WAGNER2026 ⚪️🔴 Każdy nadzwyczajny stan podczas Memoriału Wagnera miał martwić, ale akurat ten kiedy jest bardzo dobrze na niecałe dwa tygodnie przed rozpoczęciem imprezy docelowej martwi mnie najmniej. Jestem zadowolony z tego, co całościowo zobaczyłem podczas krakowskiego weekendu z udziałem drużyny prowadzonej przez Nikolę Grbicia - bardzo dobra forma, zwłaszcza na tle Francji. Biorąc pod uwagę ostatnie lata i obsadę turnieju, nie pamiętam już tak dobrej dyspozycji naszej drużyny podczas Memoriału Wagnera. Niemal wszyscy, którzy brani są pod uwagę w kontekście turnieju Mistrzostw Europy, wysłali sygnał naszemu selekcjonerowi, że są gotowi do walki o awans na igrzyska olimpijskie. To cieszy najbardziej. Cieszy również, że uraz Bartłomieja Lemańskiego to nic takiego i za kilka dni wraca do pełnych treningów. Jest nam potrzebny podczas turnieju Mistrzostw Europy. Widzimy się za tydzień w Gdańsku i tam czeka nas mecz z reprezentacją Finlandii, ostatni mecz reprezentacji Polski w 2026 roku przed własną publicznością. Ależ to zleciało... TRUST THE PROCESS. ⚪️🔴 Foto: @KLukawski #gangłysego #MemoriałWagnera #ReprezentacjaPolski #Siatkówka

The Age of Experts Is Over If the past two decades—COVID-19, the 2008 financial crisis, and the net-zero charade—have taught us anything, it is this: the age of unquestioned experts is over. Authority issued by corrupt, bloated institutions no longer commands automatic respect. We are entering an era in which trust must be earned, not assumed. Credentials matter less than results. Expertise can become conformity wrapped in a credential; status is no substitute for trustworthiness. The future belongs to those with proven track records, not merely letters after their names. Friedrich Nietzsche warned of this more than a century ago. He distrusted experts who served the spirit of their age—those who mistook consensus for courage and conformity for principle. To Nietzsche, many authorities were functionaries of the status quo: too timid to challenge the sacred assumptions of their time. University professors, state philosophers, and moral enforcers wore obedience as a badge of honor. They did not think; they repeated. They did not challenge; they conformed. They made the ordinary seem profound through jargon, complexity, and ambiguity. Nietzsche saw these not as signs of insight, but as camouflage—cowardice in disguise. He also distinguished knowledge from wisdom. Knowledge can be taught, measured, and tested. Wisdom must be earned through suffering, struggle, and brutal self-examination. Nietzsche admired those who forged their own paths rather than simply climbing institutional ladders. Even in science, he saw a danger. He respected its methods but feared their sanctification. Science, he argued, still required justification; materialists confused method with meaning and data with truth. Experts who presented science as the only path to knowledge were, in Nietzsche’s eyes, dogmatists in lab coats. So the question is no longer, “What are your qualifications?” It is: What have you done? What have you risked? What have you proved? We must recover the courage to think for ourselves—and place our confidence only in those who have earned it through action, not appointment.

Nuclear tests shatter trust, fuel a nuclear arms race & betray every community still living with the legacy of past nuclear tests. I call on all countries possessing nuclear weapons to maintain existing moratoria & bring the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty into force. #NuclearBan #Disarmament #Peace #US #CN #RU #UK #FR #IN #PK #NK

When the Fog Begins to Lift If you feel as though the world is going crazy, you’re not imagining things. Over the past decade, a media-driven “woke” movement gripped Western societies, creating what Michael Shellenberger calls “mass psychosis.” He argues that Democrats and media figures labeled opponents of DEI, racial quotas, and open borders as far-right—not because those people had changed, but because the political left had moved dramatically further left on cultural issues. Evidence continues to support this view. U.S. General Social Survey data suggests that center- and right-leaning opinions have remained relatively stable since the early 2000s, while left-wing views have shifted substantially. Meanwhile, publications such as *The New York Times* and *The Washington Post* sharply increased their use of terms like “racist” and “white privilege” after 2012. Shellenberger writes: “The media did this. The mass brainwashing came from college-educated elites in control of the most powerful propaganda machine in world history. These elites convinced the public that the West had grown more racist than ever, a blatant contradiction of the evidence. While the public was distracted by manufactured culture wars, governments exploited the chaos to consolidate power. Authoritarianism, spiraling debt, and economic devastation were the crippling costs of this deception.” He describes the political consequences just as bluntly: “By the time we got to 2016, Democrats had become completely unhinged. They made everything political, hunted heretics, and weaponized the government—three core characteristics of totalitarianism.” The fallout has been severe. Institutions lie in ruins, public trust has collapsed, and communities remain deeply divided. This was not simply a political miscalculation. It was ideological warfare, designed to divide and control. As the fog begins to lift, one question remains: Have we learned enough to resist the next wave of fearmongering and manipulation—or will we once again accept the same tactics from new faces?

The End of Blind Authority If the past two decades—through COVID-19, the 2008 financial crisis, and the net-zero charade—have taught us anything, it is this: the age of unquestioned experts is over. Authority granted by corrupt, bloated institutions no longer commands automatic respect. We are entering an era in which trust must be earned, not assumed. Credentials alone are not enough. Results matter more. Expertise can become conformity wrapped in a credential. The age of trusting people solely because of their status is fading. What matters now is trustworthiness, not titles. The future belongs to those with proven track records, not simply to those with letters after their names. Friedrich Nietzsche warned about this more than a century ago. He distrusted experts who blindly served the spirit of their age—those who mistook consensus for courage and conformity for principle. To Nietzsche, many authorities were not pioneers of truth but functionaries of the status quo: people too timid to challenge the assumptions of their time. He mocked the bureaucrats of knowledge: professors, state philosophers, and moral enforcers. They wore intellectual obedience like a badge of honor. They did not think; they repeated. They did not challenge; they conformed. To Nietzsche, jargon, complexity, and ambiguity were not always signs of insight. They could also be camouflage—cowardice in disguise. He distinguished between knowledge, which can be measured, taught, and tested, and wisdom, which must be earned. Wisdom comes through suffering, struggle, and honest self-examination. Nietzsche admired those willing to rise above institutional thinking. Even in science, he saw a danger. He respected its methods but feared their sanctification. He believed materialists could confuse method with meaning and data with truth. Experts who presented science as the only path to knowledge were dogmatists in lab coats. The question is no longer, “What are your qualifications?” It is: What have you done? What have you risked? What have you proved? We must rediscover the courage to think for ourselves and trust those who have earned authority through action—not appointment.

Vasco tem confiança total na venda da SAF para Marcos Lamacchia e vê como IMPROVÁVEL um veto da ANRESF. Internamente, dirigentes e advogados encaram a investigação (sobre possível conflito de interesses) da ANRESF com naturalidade e mantêm o discurso de que a venda será feita. Representantes de Lamacchia já vinham mantendo contato com a ANRESF e apresentaram previamente a estrutura que pretendem utilizar na compra da SAF. Eles também se mostraram dispostos para realizar qualquer ajuste exigido pela ANRESF. Uma das alternativas previstas no regulamento é a criação de um "blind trust", estrutura em que um fundo controla os ativos sem influência do proprietário. No caso do Vasco, essa solução poderia valer até o fim do mandato de Leila Pereira no Palmeiras, no fim de 2027. Enquanto o processo estiver em análise, Vasco e Palmeiras ficam impedidos de estabelecer relações comerciais. O Cruzmaltino também não pode pegar novos empréstimos com a Crefisa. O DIP de R$ 150 milhões pedido pelo Vasco não entra nessa restrição, por estar ligado à Almirante Participações, de Marcos Lamacchia. A investigação deve durar cerca de 1 mês. 🗞️ @geglobo 📸 Bruno Murito/ge #Vasco #SAF #ANRESF

🚨 Vasco demonstra confiança na venda da SAF para Marcos Lamacchia e não acredita em veto da ANRESF. A diretoria e os advogados do clube encaram com tranquilidade a investigação aberta pela ANRESF sobre um possível conflito de interesses e seguem confiantes de que a negociação será concluída. A equipe de Lamacchia já vinha dialogando com a entidade e apresentou a estrutura planejada para a aquisição da SAF. O grupo também sinalizou que está disposto a fazer eventuais adequações solicitadas pela ANRESF. Entre as possibilidades está o “blind trust”, modelo que limita a influência do proprietário sobre a administração dos ativos. A estrutura poderia ser adotada até o fim de 2027, quando termina o mandato de Leila Pereira no Palmeiras. Durante a investigação, Vasco e Palmeiras ficam proibidos de realizar negócios entre si, enquanto o Cruzmaltino também não poderá contratar novos empréstimos junto à Crefisa. O DIP de R$ 150 milhões não é afetado pela medida, pois está relacionado à Almirante Participações, empresa ligada a Lamacchia. A expectativa é de que a investigação seja concluída em aproximadamente um mês. 📰 @geglobo #Vasco #SAF #ANRESF

O Benfica de Marco Silva chega aos 28 golos em 8 jogos. Na época passada demorou 18 para atingir os 28 tentos. Os jogadores que têm jogado já cá estavam quase todos. A direção é a mesma. Só mudou o 👇 In Marco we trust! #Benfica #MarcoSilva #Futebol

Rendu là il n’y a qu’une sortie sanglante de Julian qui pourrait renverser la situation, exactement comme l’avait fait Isak. Qu’il fasse bien comprendre dans un communiqué qu’ils ne compte plus jouer avec eux car la relation de confiance est brisée à cause de leurs mensonges Mais ce teletubbies est dans un RP tristounet de chien battu, a un agent faiblard et a une personnalité réservée donc le plus facile pour lui serait d’accepter son sort et d’aller à Arsenal pour éviter la confrontation #Football #TransferNews #TrustIssues

Possível conflito na venda da SAF do Vasco pode ter alternativas para ser resolvido. Segundo o advogado Marco Antônio Dias, especialista em direito desportivo, a relação de parentesco envolvendo os envolvidos pode representar um dos principais obstáculos do processo, já que, pelo Código Civil, enteados possuem o mesmo grau de parentesco dos filhos. Caso o conflito seja reconhecido, porém, a venda não seria necessariamente vetada. Uma das alternativas previstas no regulamento é a criação de um blind trust, ou “fundo cego”, que afastaria o acionista da administração e de qualquer conselho. A medida poderia vigorar, por exemplo, até o fim do mandato de Leila Pereira no Palmeiras, em dezembro de 2027.
