The proposed model, unnamed but also unhidden, is partition. Washington gets access to Ukrainian mineral resources. Moscow gets a fat slice of Ukraine. Russia and America reset diplomatic relations and renew commercial ties without any of the old fuss around rule of law and human rights – an oligarch entente.

Kudos to my amazingly talented and brave USDS colleague, Daisy Kid Henderson, for putting herself out there to help get the word out about the mushroom cloud of destruction which DOGE is wreaking throughout the federal government.

Rather than saying anything more than that, I'm going to let this article and Daisy speak for themselves. Please read.

The DOGE Takeover Is Worse Than You Think | WIRED

https://www.wired.com/story/doge-worse-than-you-think/

Don't know if you guys noticed, but Trump in one moment said to Zelenskyy - "This is no way to do business".

That's everything you need to know about the "peacemaker" #Trump.

#Politics #zelensky

This looks like a setup to humiliate Zelenksyy. Also, in the eyes of the orange muppet, it was a win-win scenario for USA. If #Zelensky signs the deal - great. If not, Zelenskyy "did it to himself" and made the whole Ukraine suffer making Putin happy in the process. #politics

Well done #Zelensky! EU should waste no time with this

#Trump's "Art of a deal" lmao

what a bully

#deepwork

@cryptadamist that should surprise no one.

This is like something from a cyberpunk novel. #Technology https://werd.io/2025/tiktoks-cute-winter-boots-meaning-explained

A very good point from @august here:

Proton Mail’s core product isn’t really technology; it’s •trust•.

And with a few rash words, their CEO has severely damaged that core product.

Yes, it was only a few words — but what else do we have to go on? If they’re doing something shady behind closed doors, we won't know about it until it’s far, far too late. The best we can do is just assume that where there’s smoke there’s fire.

Welcome to the era of gangster tech regulation

Stole the comment, but the point stands...

"Sir, a second shitcoin has hit the public"

Comment under the article "Google decides it won't comply with EU fact-checking law":

> Who decides what the facts are?

Yep, that's real ladies and gents.

Andy Yen and other techbros fawning over Trump really need to cut it out.

The next 5 years are pivotal for EU digital policymaking, with European regulation shaping global tech standards. As the new EU mandate begins, we have outlined key recommendations to protect rights, empower users, and ensure fair competition: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/12/fundamental-rights-centered-eu-digital-policy-effs-recommendations-2024-2029

Great ep of the #TechWontSaveUs #podcast with @parismarx who interviews @tante about the #WordPress implosion and the @osi #OpenSource #AI definition and how it turns on training #data for #ML.

A nuanced conversation - thank you both!
