Entlebuch, der 'wilde Westen von Luzern' – abgebildet schroffe, teils begrünte Bergrücken vor dahinter liegendem Alpenpanorama. – Foto ?
Im Entlebuch fliesst die hervorsprudelnde Entle in die kleine Emme und dominiert der Napf das Bergland – tönt ja schon schön.
Pelican.
A Great Egret is standing in marsh waters. It's a large white bird with a yellow beak and black legs.

Time for 🛏️
#sunset
The bright sun shines its rays through the mostly cloudy sky and it looks a bit like water flowing. Some tree tops at the bottom.
#blueskyartshow (theme #flowing).
I thought the sun’s rays looked as if they were flowing across the #clouds.

It’s been a busy week for pardoned January 6th insurrectionists:
This week alone, THREE more insurrectionists were charged with committing new crimes since they got pardoned by President Trump last year 🧵
No Musky, your math, as usual, doesn't math.
Higher corporate tax rates benefit the country.
A small bird sits in a meadow and looks to the right. Its body is brown, its breast and face are white, and its upper plumage is dark brown. It has a broad black stripe across its eye and a V-shaped black stripe below its eye. It has grass seeds in its short beak.
For #SmallBirdSaturday, my choice goes to a Rock Bunting that I photographed yesterday 🪶
Wishing you a wonderful weekend 🫶

I actually found this sickening
A sunset over the river with mountains in the background.
“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
― Emily Dickinson
Almost nobody in the media reported on the former Tory Government's sweeping power grab of the electoral commission. This week Labour have announced that they will reverse what Boris Johnson did and return the commission to independence.
Ofcourse Labour will get absolutely no credit for doing this
“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.”
-Dwight Eisenhower 1953

At least there's one almost sane one
“We have confirmed reports from U.S. officials that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran to help it target U.S. assets in the region.”
"Frankly, it does not really matter", Leavitt responded.

When Putin has something on you, you put up with a lot.
Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

Farage is a shirker, and has been in every elected role. As an MEP he skived off the Fisheries meetings when he should have been representing the UK, and only showed up in the EP for the chance of a soundbite on camera. He *doesn't want* public office - just the grift that goes with it.
In the #DailyExpress alternative universe it was a good day for #ReformUK despite losing a seat to #Labour and also losing in other by-elections to the #Tories and #Greens.
So #Farage was played 5 lost 3. He'd be sacked if he was a football manager.
