The sheer savagery of the Versailles reaction and revenge against the Communards was such that even the correspondent for The Times was appalled. It was a defining moment in the political education of Lenin and he took the necessary lessons from it.

September 2025 was the third warmest on record in the Berkeley Earth dataset. But this downplays how anomalous it was; without 2023 and 2024 this year would have been well above any prior records and well above the long-term trend:

border patrol bernie says: good job trump, thank you for protecting Our Nation
BERNIE: “If you don’t have any borders, you don’t have a nation.” “Trump did a better job. I don’t like Trump, but we should have a secure border. It ain’t that hard to do. Biden didn't do it.”

In many ways Germany is turning into Italy: has been in recession for years but the economy does not get discussed that much, the debate is about immigration and how it's not possible to discuss immigration, how we should be able to discuss immigration more.
@hoyer_kat Germany does nothing but discuss immigration 😂

If you read the official court documents (link in ALT), it is very clear that the underlying reason driving the eventual takeover of the company were the prospect of escalation in U.S. trade sanctions under the 50% rule, which was officially released on September 29th.
The Dutch newspaper NRC has now published the official court documents from the Ondernemingskamer, confirming that the Dutch government's intervention at Nexperia was not primarily driven by geopolitics, but by a serious internal financial conflict.

Germany’s sheer determination to box its already-struggling car industry into a dying technology will never cease to amaze me.

Imagine if a climate policy decision had had this massive effect on the automotive industry. The media would be *outraged*. Yet the coverage of this is relatively muted.
The Dutch government's too-clever-by-half decision to seize control of Nexperia, a chip maker, away from its Chinese owners is having a massive effect on European supply chains. The German car industry is 10-20 days away from a total production stop. The problem came after
