Trump open to invoking the Insurrection Act
Irie Sentner,  Staff Writer  -  Politico

Stephan: We are watching the military, ICE, and CBP Gestapo takeover of cities where Americans voted for Democrat control. In my opinion, this is all being done because Trump wants to frighten Americans into submission, and control the outcome of 2026 election so a submissive Republican majority retains control of Congress.

@prologic@twtxt.net Germany was listed as “opposing” on https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ for a while, now it’s back to “undecided”. According to netzpolitik.org, it’s still debated. Also according to that page, there could be an important vote on the EU level on October 13/14.

What #TheLEFT had to say about #vonderleyen ’s #SOTU speech?

There are several news stories going around saying that there are two no-confidence votes to Von Der Leyen about to be submitted, saying little to nothing about them, and even filing them together as if they both want or mean the same.

It might be useful to know exactly what the criticisms are, so here is a link to The Left’s comment to today’s speech. Read it in full, but here is my summary:

  • “acts as the guardian of the interests of the most powerful, at the expense of democracy, justice, and the future of the planet”;

  • Gaza: “The bare minimum is ending military cooperation and fully suspending the EU–Israel Association Agreement. This is genocide and we need to do everything to stop it”

  • pushing the MERCOSUR deal (they are actually light on their criticism of this treaty, but I’ll leave my rant about ot on a another toot)

  • the EU-US deal: “subjugation of European policy to the economic and military interests of the USA. You are sacrificing energy, digital policy, security, and climate protection on the altar of the hollow phrase of transatlantic partnership”

  • “Europeans’ living standards are falling, jobs are lost, authoritarianism grows, and social systems are under pressure”

In-reply-to » Finally I propose that we increase the Twt Hash length from 7 to 12 and use the first 12 characters of the base32 encoded blake2b hash. This will solve two problems, the fact that all hashes today either end in q or a (oops) 😅 And increasing the Twt Hash size will ensure that we never run into the chance of collision for ions to come. Chances of a 50% collision with 64 bits / 12 characters is roughly ~12.44B Twts. That ought to be enough! -- I also propose that we modify all our clients and make this change from the 1st July 2025, which will be Yarn.social's 5th birthday and 5 years since I started this whole project and endeavour! 😱 #Twtxt #Update

@eapl.me@eapl.me I honestly believe you are overreacting here a little bit 🤣 I completely emphasize with you, it can be pretty tough to feel part of a community at times and run a project with a kind of “democracy” or “vote by committee”. But one thing that life has taught me about open source projects and especially decentralised ecosystems is that this doesn’t really work.

It isn’t that I’ve not considered all the other options on the table (which can still be), it’s just that I’ve made a decision as the project lead that largely helped trigger a rebirth of the use of Twtxt back in July 1 2020.
