@HellmerMitzi @Anna_Giaritelli It is not cruelty to encourage undocumented foreign nationals to return to their home countries.

America, by law, has not chosen to welcome the entire world to live in our country.

It was cruel for the Biden Administration to lie to them.

Why is 🇸🇪 allowing Samidoun to expand while other gov'ts, including in Europe, are cracking down?
Last week, 🇬🇷 authorities detained Samidoun's Europe head Mohammed Khatib, citing “national security" concerns. The group is banned in the 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇮🇱 🇩🇪 for its affiliation w/ the PFLP.
🧵>>Image
NGO Monitor’s new report documents how Samidoun is expanding its operations in Sweden, organizing nationwide demonstrations that promote “armed resistance”. Samidoun members have publicly praised Hamas, Hezbollah, and the PFLP, declaring these groups “our comrades” and “our heroes”. >>Image
Samidoun’s recently detained European Coordinator Mohammed Khatib, a PFLP member, admonished Sweden at the 2024 Gothenburg radical book fair for not offering stronger “support for the resistance.” In 2025, 🇧🇪 revoked his status. >> Image

🧵 COMMS DIE. THEN MEN DO.
Russia built its battlefield on two lies: stolen satellites and phantom territory.
Ukraine just called both debts due.
Thread. 🔽
2/18
📡 Russian forces had been running battlefield comms on hijacked Starlink terminals — routed through 3rd countries. Commercial access. Unauthorized. Systematic.
Not edge cases. Battalion C2. Drone ops. Artillery correction. All of it.
3/18
Early Feb 2026 — Ukraine + SpaceX deployed a whitelist system.
Every Ukrainian-authorized terminal registered.
Everything else: deactivated.
~90% of Russian front-line Starlink access went dark. Simultaneously.

The Guardian says it’s “searching for Palestine.”

What it’s actually doing? Searching for a verdict.

From the first episode, the conclusion is already written – Israel is guilty, context optional.

Let’s look at what’s framed… and what’s left out. ⬇
2/6
From the outset, every Palestinian interviewee rejects Israel’s legitimacy.

Only one state can exist, they say.

Yet when peace fails, the blame lands solely on Israel.

If one side rejects coexistence outright, that isn’t background noise.

It’s the central obstacle. You wouldn’t know that from this episode.
3/6
An interviewee claims Israel “came and cancelled everything” – culture, currency, identity.

But the footage shown includes the Palestinian pound from the British Mandate. With Hebrew printed on it.

That inconvenient historical reality? Left unexplored.

Last week, GAI’s VP @seamusbruner revealed to Josh Hawley that the anti-ICE groups in Minnesota and their affiliates have received over $60 million from a vast network of Dark Money NGOs.



It's time to take a look under the hood of this machine.
🧵👇
We’ve been told that the anti-ICE activity in MN is the result of a grassroots-led movement, organically sprouting from backlash against ICE activities.

But if you follow the money, you'll see that the chaos is being orchestrated by big-money groups.

Over the past year, our team at GAI has been untangling this Dark Money web, often tracing funding to civil unrest.

Last June, GAI revealed how the Arabella, Tides, and Soros networks were funding chaotic “No Kings” protests across the US.

Introducing Lyria 3, our new music generation model in Gemini that lets you turn any idea, photo, or video into a high-fidelity track with custom lyrics.

From funny jingles to lo-fi beats, you can create custom 30-second soundtracks for any moment.

See how it works. 🧵
To try Lyria 3, head to and select “Create music” in the tools menu, then describe what you want to hear.

Gemini will transform your prompt into a high-quality track. You can even ask Gemini to take inspiration from a photo or video you upload.

Here are three ways to get started 👇gemini.google
1) Text to Tracks:

Describe a specific genre, mood, or topic to create unique tracks with lyrics or instrumental audio that fits your vibe.

For example, you could prompt, “Create a 90's skate punk rock track to tell my roommate Ryan to wash the dishes, high energy, fast drums.”

🧵Exclusive!! Stardust Solutions: Power, Money And Secrecy!!

A clandestine startup near Tel Aviv backed by Silicon Valley elites is quietly preparing to spray particles into the sky to dim the sun. $75M raised for a risky bid!

Let us unpack and dive into Stardust Solutions!! Image
Stardust Solutions has already raised a massive $75 million to pursue solar geoengineering. Funded by Lowercarbon Capital the company is currently planning outdoor experiments. It claims to specialize in "sunlight reflection technology" to mitigate global warming! Image
These are three primary architects of Stardust. At the helm are Yanai Yedvab (CEO), Amyad Spector (CPO), & Eli Waxman (lead scientist). Their lack of transparency & refusal to disclose the composition of the particles or publish peer reviewed research has raised red flags. Image

Since most of my fellow Europeans haven’t had the time or stomach to fully acquaint themselves with who’s who in Trump’s up and coming American Reich, I’ve taken it upon myself to create a short guide to the main cartoon villains and abominations of this administration.🧵
Affectionately referred to as "pure fucking evil" by her closest friends, family and by everyone who has ever met, seen, or heard her really, Kristi Noem is the woman Trump tasked with deporting people to Salvadoran concentration camps, after learning that she shot a puppy.
Married to an obscenely rich man whose children were already having children by the time she was born, and often seen wearing oversized crosses to differentiate herself from her North Korean counterpart, Karoline Leavitt is currently serving as White House Press Secretary.

Kasparov: If a 200,000-strong army reaches Latvia’s border, will anyone shoot? NATO membership is paper if no one acts.

Article 5 works when leaders are ready to enforce it. Putin’s plans failed not because of NATO — but because Ukraine stood as an unbreakable wall.

1/
Kasparov: The army will keep killing, looting, seizing land. The Baltics are defenseless.

It may start not with invasion, but with 500 special forces crossing the border, taking a square kilometer — testing Article 5. We know the answer: no one responds.

Kasparov: Any real compromise removes the causes of conflict. Ukraine-Russia “peace talks” are cowardly and corrupt, openly corrupt on Trump’s side.

Europe isn’t ready to admit this isn’t just a standoff, but a real war. Even after four years, it’s still living in illusions. 1/
Kasparov: The cause of this war is Putin’s desire to destroy Ukrainian statehood, restore imperial influence in Eastern Europe, and revise the Cold War’s outcome.

A “compromise” just lets him regroup — his war is against the liberal democratic West.

2/
Kasparov: Witkoff is basically a mid-level real estate speculator now trying to “sell property the size of New Jersey.”

Europe makes a brave face but avoids saying the simple words: Ukraine must win. Instead, it keeps searching for a middle ground to avoid decisive action.
