Daniel: Verwandel mal den, der hier weint, in irgendwas, dann hat er's hinter sich.

President Donald Trump reportedly fired three pro-war neocons on his National Security Council shortly after he met with Laur Loomer in the Oval Office.

The president met Wednesday with Loomer, a conservative investigative journalist. Loomer has publicly accused Trump administration staffers of disloyalty and said there have been vetting failures at the NSC and elsewhere through various posts on X.

The New York Times reported Loomer discussed NSC staffers she said were disloyal and whose loyalties lie firmly in the camp of Washington’s neoconservative war hawks. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz (pictured above with Trump) was reportedly present at the meeting along with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Journalist and author Glenn Greenwald posted to X:

“Wild: Laura Loomer got Trump to fire 3 pro-war members of the National Security Council: Daniel Feith, son of the Bush/Cheney über-neocon Douglas Feith; a long-time top foreign policy advisor to Marco Rubio, and another top adviser to Mike Waltz.”

Axios reported that three senior NSC officials were fired after the Loomer meeting at the White House. The firings came a week after the Signal group chat leak, in which the Atlantic’s editor-in-chief was added to a group chat with Waltz and other national security officials by Waltz’s staff.

Biennale Architettura 2025 | Terms and Conditions | Corderie dell’Arsenale

Carlo Ratti as Curator of the 19th International Architecture Exhibition Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective., invited Transsolar to participate in the Biennale Architettura 2025 with the Special Project 'Terms and Conditions': In climate-controlled buildings worldwide, the true costs of comfort are often overlooked, and our climate future is continually postponed. Adjusting the thermostat may seem trivial, but it has profound implications. What have we truly signed up for? Did we read the fine print? Outside, air conditioning systems hum and drip, working tirelessly off electrical grids still predominantly powered by fossil fuels. These cooling systems sustain sealed, optimized interiors but contribute to a planetary infrastructure that emits greenhouse gases, accelerates global warming, and raises sea levels. This vicious cycle – cooling to maintain comfort while heating the planet – becomes the unnoticed background hum for the privileged, who often tune out its dissonance. This anteroom 'Terms and Conditions' brings the outside world inside – air conditioners surround you, dispersing waste heat from cooled exhibition spaces. The passage becomes a spatial metaphor for the growing global thermal inequality: who benefits from comfort, for how long, and at what cost? On one side: cool, predictable, normed, and contained. On the other: hot, noisy, damp, unpredictable, and precarious. These conditions reflect how luxury lifestyles impose thermal burdens on vulnerable populations and future generations... Carlo Ratti has asked us to create a realistic future scenario that can be experienced in this exhibition space. The common goal is to do everything we can to avert this future.

In its latest lurch to the far right, Denmark plans to send refugees back to Syria They did not speak a word of Danish yet the Scandinavian country was an outpost of calm for the siblings, who fled the destruction and death that followed the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011. On arriving in 2015, it only took them a year to learn the language, and now Dania is months away from finishing high school in the Danish port of Kolding. “We were very happy at the beginning and felt safe being here,” Dania, who hopes to work in bio-medicine, said. “We [wanted] a good future, therefore we did everything [we could] to learn Danish.” The siblings asked CNN to withhold their last name due to concerns for family members back in Syria. Hussam, 20, described Denmark as a place of peace, a country where his family felt at home, and “a society that gives you the freedom to live the way you want.” He hoped to study engineering or medicine once he completed high school next year. Those dreams were dashed when Denmark became the first democratic European nation to tell Syrian refugees originating from Damascus and its surrounding countryside to return to the war-torn nation. In 2019, the Danish government began reviewing the residency permits of refugees who came from Damascus — a move based on its assessment that the conditions there had improved and it was therefore safe for refugees to return. In February, it was announced they were also reviewing the status of several hundred Syrian refugees from Damascus’ surrounding region. But critics say the policy of stripping Syrians of residency permits is the latest salvo aimed at Denmark’s non-White refugee and immigrant community. While fighting has subsided considerably in the region around Damascus, activists say the Danish government is actively putting Syrians in harm’s way. “We disagree with the decision to deem the Damascus area, or any other area [in Syria], safe for refugees,” Charlotte Slente, the secretary general of the Danish Refugee Council, told CNN. “We have knowledge from various reports of arbitrary detention and ongoing civil rights abuses of the civilian population in Syria,” she added, citing a March Human Rights Council report, which found that the Syrian government’s policy and acts “amount to crimes against humanity [and] have continued unabated for nearly 10 years, without any sign that the government intends to discontinue them.” The Danish minister for immigration and integration, Mattias Tesfaye, defended the policy in a statement to CNN, saying that “Denmark has been open and honest from day one” that residence permits for Syrian refugees are “temporary, and that the permit can be revoked if the need for protection ceases to exist.” “The approach of the Danish government is to provide protection to those in need of it, but when the conditions in their home country have improved, former refugees should return to the home country and reestablish their life there,” Tesfaye added. Dania and Hussam’s family have been caught in the dragnet. The Danish Immigration Service uprooted their lives in February by refusing to extend their father’s residency permit, which their own visas are linked to, according to their lawyer Daniel Nørrung. Dania and Hussam had been told to leave Denmark by March 5, but with the help of a lawyer, the family is challenging the decision with the Refugee Appeals Board. “It’s a bit problematic, Dania and Hussam were given a date to leave Denmark when their father’s case has not even been finalized,” Nørrung told CNN. If the appeals board upholds the immigration service’s decision, the family will be stripped of their rights to study, work or live in the country. This mean they risk being sent to one of two deportation facilities — known as “departure centers” — for people who have been refused asylum and refugees like them who have lost their status. “We are going to languish in a center, where people are broken down, humiliated and held in helplessness and hopelessness, instead of being able to go out and contribute to society,” Dania said. Uprooting lives The Danish government has refused to extend the residency permits of least 300 Syrian refugees since 2019, after its security assessment concluded that the situation in Damascus was “no longer so serious.” Authorities are currently reexamining the protection of more than 400 more Syrian refugees living in the country, according to figures given to CNN by the Ministry of Immigration and Integration. This is part of a self-described paradigm shift of Danish refugee policy, said Nikolas Feith Tan, a refugee law expert at the Danish Institute of Human Rights. The move has seen successive governments enact legislative amendments that have shifted the country’s focus from the integration and permanent protection of refugees to the kind of temporary residency permits Dania and Hussam were placed under. In January, the country’s left-wing Social Democrat Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen reiterated her party’s intention to be as restrictive on immigration as her right-wing predecessors, telling parliament the goal was to have “zero asylum seekers.” Frederiksen adopted a hardline stance on immigration in the run-up to Denmark’s 2019 election, luring voters away from the right-wing populist Danish People’s Party (DPP). After winning the election, the Social Democrat party is “locked in now” to prove it is not soft on immigration, or it risks drawing the ire of right-wing parties or the electorate, Kristina Bakkær Simonsen, an associate professor at Aarhus University, who specializes in immigrant integration, discrimination and stigmatization, told CNN. While the Danish government “cannot carry out forced returns” as it does not have diplomatic relations with Syria, “the government’s clear hope is that this group of people will choose to return voluntarily, which some Syrians already have done,” Tan added. To help with the move “a bag of money from the Danish state” is provided to the voluntary Syrian returnees, the immigration and integration minister Tesfaye has said. His ministry told CNN the financial support is around $28,150, and since 2019 more than 250 Syrian refugees have taken the financial support package. But activists say Syrians are being compelled to return by the Danish government’s efforts to make life intolerable for those without residency rights. The deportation centers Dania and Hussam dread entering “are like torture, designed to break people down,” Michala Clante Bendixen, the head of Refugees Welcome Denmark, told CNN. The centers are partially open, which means their occupants are able to move in and out freely, said Bendixen. But the occupants have to check in every evening, and have no income, rights to employment or access to public housing. One center is around four miles from the nearest bus stop, making it impossible for anyone to leave in the day. “There are no activities, no training courses, you can’t even cook your own food,” Bendixen said, noting that even in prison there are opportunities to make money. Instead of returning to their country of origin, refugees sometimes “go underground” and flee to other European countries “where they will try and reopen their asylum cases,” Bendixen said. Targeting immigrants and refugees In recent years, Denmark has rolled out some of the harshest anti-immigrant policies in Europe, including a so-called jewelry bill that allows the government to take certain assets from asylum seekers to contribute to the country’s welfare state. In 2017, the former Liberal Party immigration minister Inger Stojberg celebrated the passage of another law that tightened immigration controls with cake. The following year, a decade-old proposal by the right-wing populist DPP to ban face coverings in public came into force, essentially criminalizing Muslim women who wear the niqab or burqa. In 2019, the government forced social and ethnic change in 15 low-income housing estates across the country — which it called “hard ghettos” and which Danish regulations define partly according to the races of residents. This year, the authorities said it would drop the term “ghetto” but expand the law to prevent the growth of such enclaves. The aim is that by the end of the decade, “residents with non-Western backgrounds” can only comprise up to 30% of any neighborhood in Denmark, according to a press release from the Interior and Housing Ministry. “For far too many years, we have closed our eyes to the development that was underway, and only acted when the integration problems became too great,” housing minister Kaare Dybvad Bek said in a statement. “We will do this by preventing more vulnerable housing areas and by creating more mixed housing areas throughout Denmark.” But the government is not succeeding in escaping the scrutiny that “they are trying to avoid by renaming ghetto areas, when they keep prioritizing ethnicity as the prime criterion” of these policies, Simonsen told CNN. ‘Copying the far right’ Critics say the governing coalition, which is led by the Social Democrats, is copying the language of the Danish far right. “Denmark is strong when it comes to rights and solidarity; burden sharing and economic equality; fair governance and no corruption,” Bendixen said. “In that way, it is very surprising and very paradoxical we have this growing xenophobia and also managed to make … clearly discriminatory laws” for refugees and immigrants, she said. Some maintain that, at its core, Denmark’s identity is tied to its White heritage — something reflected in official statistics, which divides the population into three categories: “persons of Danish origins,” “immigrants,” and “descendants of immigrants.” This means that second-generation immigrants, who are naturalized Danish citizens, are not counted officially in the Danish category. Last year, the immigration and integration minister Tesfaye announced a new classification for people from primarily Muslim countries. The category, called MENAPT, will include people from or with heritage from Middle Eastern and North African countries as well as Pakistan and Afghanistan. “It will provide a clearer picture of how people from 24 countries, primarily in the Middle East and North Africa, who have played a major role in immigration to Denmark, cope in relation to, for example, crime and employment,” a government statement wrote. What it shows, Bendixen said, is that there appears to be “two sets of laws” in Denmark: “One set for ‘the real Danes,’ and one set for the ‘others who don’t belong here.'” While analysts have noted that Danish political discourse on immigrants is extremely negative compared to other European countries, the policy of removing the refugee status of Syrians has been controversial in the country. The plight of young Danish-speaking Syrians have filled the pages of the country’s largest broadsheets and Facebook groups have been set up to campaign for them to remain. The action has also made the country an outlier among its closest allies. In March, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken told the UN Security Council that it was “not in the interest of the Syrian people to pressure Syrian refugees to return to Syria, including to regime-held areas, where many fear they will be arbitrary detained, tortured, or even killed by Assad’s security forces in retaliation for fleeing.” “We agree with the UN that refugee returns must be voluntary, well-informed, and should ensure the safety and dignity of the people involved — or else they should not happen,” Blinken added. But Denmark does not appear to be reconsidering the move. “The government’s policy is working, and I won’t back down, it won’t happen,” immigration minister Tesfaye told Agence France Presse. In a statement to CNN he pointed to reports by the UK Home Office, the European Union’s Asylum Office and the Swedish government that said the security situation in Damascus had improved. However, neither of those nations are repatriating Syrians to the Damascus region, while the EU does not recommend doing so. All Hussam and Dania want to do is remain in Denmark. But instead of worrying about exams and other everyday concerns like their Danish friends, the siblings now fear their family may face repercussions on returning to Syria for “turning our backs” against the regime. Hussam also stands the risk of being conscripted into the Syrian army, he said. “Syria is not safe, and will not be safe no matter what city it is, as long as a dictator rules it,” he said.

Worked at the Reagan White House as a Middle East Specialist for the National Security Council and then served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Negotiations Policy. Served as Under Secretary of Defense for Policy in the G.W. Bush administration from 2001 to 2005. He is closely associated with the extremist group the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), which attacks Jews that don't agree with their extremist views. Feith supervised the Pentagon Office of Special Plans, a group of policy and inteligence analysts created to provide senior government officials with unvetted raw intelligence. The office was responsible for hiring Lawerence Franklin, who was convicted along with AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) employees Steven J. Rosen and Keith Weissman for passing classified national defense information to an Israel diplomat, Naor Gilon.

Henry Kissinger --- Israel/U.S. Dual Citizen

Was the 56th U.S. Secretary of State from 1973-1977 under Pres. Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. Was Assistant to the Pres. for National Security Affairs under Nixon and Ford. Member of the Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board from 1984-1990. A member of the Commission on Integrated Long-Term Strategy of the National Security Council and Defense Department from 1986-1988.

Janet Yellen --- Federal Reserve Chair

Stanley Fischer --- Federal Reserve Vice-Chair

There are well over 100 high-level members of the U.S. goverment who are citizens of Israel.

The U.S. State Department allows Dual Citizenship. Dual nationals owe allegiance to both the United States and their foreign county of origin.

The U.S. government is awash with Israeli citizens. If you don't think Israel is exerting tremendous influence over the decisions, policies, and wars of the United States --- Then you have your head stuck so far up your ass a team of surgeons couldn't remove it.

It is absurd that people who are citizens of foreign nations would be allowed to hold public office in the United States.

Man can not serve two masters, anymore than he can be in two places at once. It's just impossible.

'We just want to live': Millennials might survive GOP tax plan but are still finding grown-up life impossible

New Post has been published on https://kidsviral.info/we-just-want-to-live-millennials-might-survive-gop-tax-plan-but-are-still-finding-grown-up-life-impossible/

'We just want to live': Millennials might survive GOP tax plan but are still finding grown-up life impossible

After the Senate passed the GOP tax reform bill early Saturday morning, the mood on the Left was apocalyptic: Newsweek’s Kurt Eichenwald declared America dead, and comic Patton Oswalt tweeted, “There’s no America now.” Once the initial shock passed, in came the statistics. So far we’ve heard from economist Larry Summers that the GOP’s tax bill will kill 10,000 people a year, although ThinkProgress has boosted that number to over 15,000.

But what about the survivors? Won’t anyone think of the Millennials? Chris Plante, executive editor of gaming site Polygon, went viral over the weekend with his tweet about how the GOP is making it impossible for his generation to live life:

The GOP is making it impossible for my gen to: -Payoff student loans -Buy a home -Earn a living wage -Go to the hosipital without risking financial collapse -Imagine a future unburdened by debt accumulated by older generations Millenials don’t want a trophy; we just want to live

— Chris Thomas Plante, or Christmas Plant for short (@plante) December 2, 2017

EXACTLY. We want to LIVE. https://t.co/jF0XXagFRY

— Jasmine Batchelor (@JLashelle2) December 2, 2017

The GOP is making it impossible to earn a living wage and buy a home? Really. Plante revisited his tweet on Monday after it made the rounds over the weekend.

This tweet went viral and turned my replies into a tour of the most lazy hostility. The insults don't hurt (they're toothless!) but it's depressing to see so many people showing so much fury at the mere suggestion that life should be better for others https://t.co/A1KqcRnnYZ

— Chris Thomas Plante, or Christmas Plant for short (@plante) December 4, 2017

“The mere suggestion that life should be better for others?” That’s not what the initial tweet said; it was more along the lines of, “Life should be easier for us.” But let’s check in on some of the “fury” anyway.

“I don’t understand basic economics- the tweet” https://t.co/KelvMLzgX8

Whatever did those of us who had lower tax rates and none of the nanny-state entitlements that Millennials beg for do…? Oh yeah, all those things, with 90% less bitching. https://t.co/LDD14A0S6w

I just recently bought my second home, an extremely nice one at that. No student loans despite graduating in May 2018 with an MBA. Just took my third promotion in same number of years with a 20% pay increase. Maybe it’s not the GOP, maybe it’s your decision making. https://t.co/IexFsz4Zav

I went to a private school that cost $40K per semester and I paid off my loans in 6 years. I currently have a job making a great salary at 28 years old. I survived cancer and still have enough money to buy a home. Quit the lying and fear mongering. https://t.co/4QAaCzPsJ1

I made it through college without taking out loans, it's called working and working hard. I'm also earning more than a living wage. How bout you major in something that will get you a job. The GOP isn't preventing you from doing anything. You are. https://t.co/7p6hpAzJk4

What is your degree in? English, History? What was your plan to sell the skills gained from that education upon entering the work force? And if you did not plan for such event, why should other people be required to off the debt you’ve undertaken for your own foolish reasons? https://t.co/QTAP5FRKOX

Für viele war er der erste Batman. Der Darsteller des Superhelden aus der 60er-TV-Serie starb im Alter von 88 Jahren an Leukämie.

Der legendäre Batman-Darsteller Adam West ist tot.

Der US-Schauspieler Adam West ist im Alter von 88 Jahren verstorben. Das berichtet unter anderem Hollywood Reporter. Er wurde vor allem bekannt in seiner Rolle als Batman in der skurrilen TV-Serie aus den 60er-Jahren an der Seite von Burt Ward (Robin), die in den 90ern in Deutschland auf Sat.1 ausgestrahlt wurde.

West schlug sich mit verschiedensten Jobs durch, bis er in den 60er-Jahren als Darsteller des Batman in der gleichnamigen Fernsehserie des US-Senders ABC gecastet wurde. In 120 Episoden verkörperte er dort den damals noch ganz und gar nicht dunklen Ritter. Die Show wurde international ein Erfolg und erreichte durch ihren skurrilen Humor und die teils extreme Überzeichnung des rechtschaffenen Batman und der ulkigen Bösewichte Kultstatus.

Die Rolle des Batman haftete so stark an Adam West, dass er sich nach Einstellung der Serie 1968 schwertat, ähnlich populäre Rollen zu finden. Erst in den 90er-Jahren gelang ihm ein kleines Comeback mit Synchronrollen in The Simpsons, später dann vor allem als Bürgermeister in Family Guy.

Adam West starb im Kreise seiner Familie nach einer kurzen, schweren Leukämie-Erkrankung in Los Angeles.
