Bei Hannover wird heute Tempo 30 wieder abgeschafft, weil sich Autofahrer nicht daran gehalten haben. Fürs Schwarzfahren kann man in den Knast kommen. Wenn du dich aber als Autofahrer nicht an die Regeln hältst, werden sie abgeschafft. Diese Doppelstandards beim Auto müssen endlich ein Ende haben!
Something that's being overlooked: The Saudi government—yes, the same gov't that butchered a Washington Post journalist a few years ago—is set to be a part owner of CNN.

From @theathletic.com: A Massachusetts board calculated it will be about $7.8 million to cover police and public safety expenses during the World Cup, yet so far, no one has provided financial commitments to cover the cost. Until it's paid, FIFA has a problem.
Das französische Finanzministerium publiziert Studie: Rund 13.000 Millionäre (und Multimillionäre) zahlen keine Einkommenssteuern. Zéro. Null. Nada.
Wie sähe es in Deutschland aus?

vividly remember, in the Corbyn Hell Years, seeing people on Twitter quite actively bonding over their joint hatred of me - trying to outdo each other in their meanness - and I just don't think it's possible to explain how weird and unpleasant it is, especially as someone who's....no-one
People don’t really understand the nature of the problem. It’s not lots of little random ankle-biter tweets. That’s annoying but whatever. It’s when hating you becomes this communal pursuit that exists separately from yourself. Like there’s an entire group of people working together to target you.
“IOC disqualifies Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych over helmet.”
A helmet.
Honouring victims of an illegal war and genocide.
That’s not “politics.” That’s basic human morality. That’s grief. Sadly that’s Ukrainian life and culture now.
Shame on you IOC.
China just sentenced Hongkong journalist Jimmy Lai to 20 years in prison. It’s a death sentence. More about how Hongkong journalists and activists tried to fight for their civil rights and got crushed by the Chinese dictatorship? read “Among the Braves”, its so good. cpj.org/2026/02/jimm...

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.
Since everyone is rightfully talking about Epstein these days: You should REALLY read the amazing investigative book “Perversion of Justice” by Julie Brown, who uncovered Epstein’s child abuse crimes and conspiracies when the case seemed dead in 2018. Must read! www.nytimes.com/2021/07/13/b...
Among the other outrages in today's news from the @washingtonpost.com, management has gutted the Pulitzer-winning climate team, according to @sammyroth.bsky.social. Their work has been so important — one more reason to be heartbroken today. And pissed. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/washington...
No struggling newspaper ever saved itself by becoming a worse and less essential product. But what's happening today at the @washingtonpost.com is not just the latest devastating contraction of the news industry; it's the gutting of an American institution vital for a healthy society
The annual losses of the Washington Post are to Bezos what a couple of hundred bucks are to an average person.
It’s like an average person cancelling their newspaper subscription.
But instead of cancelling a subscription, he’s cancelling the newspaper.
Incredibly shameful.
Second book recommendation this year! “Evicted” by Matthew Desmond is one of the most detailed books about homelessness and the system that keep people in poverty and won the Pulitzer Prize in 2017. You won’t forget the stories of these families and landlords from Minnesota, very much recommended.

That one of the richest people on earth is essentially destroying one of the biggest newsrooms in the US is a moral stain that will forever stick.
Seven years ago yesterday, this ad ran during the Super Bowl.
Good opportunity for MacKenzie Scott to get a lot of great press for a reasonable price…
In diesem Fall wäre das Wegklicken ein großer Verlust.
Eines der besten Bücher der vergangenen Jahre erscheint im Februar auf Deutsch — und ich hatte die Ehre, das Vorwort zu schreiben. Es geht darum, wie PFAS-Chemikalien die Welt vergiften. Und wie Menschen (teilweise) erfolgreich dagegen ankämpfen. Mehr hier: steady.page/en/danieldre...

I know these things, but thanks a lot anyway :)
If you are affected, you can help us @netzwerkrecherche.org by getting in touch here, we’re trying to find out more. netzwerkrecherche.org/signal-phish...
Someone tried to break into my Signal account to expose my sources and private chats. I didn’t fall for the phishing attempt and all is safe, but @nicoschmidt.io reports that this is a wider issue and has affected a lot of people. Be safe out there and share widely: www.linkedin.com/posts/nicosc...

Ein Post auf X von Martin Sellner, der ihn im Thüringer Landtag zusammen mit AfD-Abgeordneten zeigt. Dazu der Text: "Thanks to @DanielHaseloff from the AfD for inviting me to the state parliament in Erfurt. The party holds 32.8% there and has a strong remigration policy. We had a very fruitful exchange. Remigration is inevitable."
Wenn der Faschismus wiederkehrt, spaziert er entspannt und ohne Probleme in den Thüringer Landtag.
Wie komme ich an relevante Informationen? Wie kann ich Hürden überwinden, um Geschichten doch noch zu erzählen? Welches Tool ist für meine Recherche am sinnvollsten? Und ist es überhaupt vertretbar, diese Geschichte zu recherchieren? Gestern haben wir den Support Desk Lokale Recherche gestartet. 1/2
