Musk has been in regular contact with Putin over the past couple of years. Its fair to say he serves as a “useful idiot” for Putin, much like Trump.

The EU has strict content moderation laws that Twitter currently violates, which Elon explicitly ignores. The EU could take actions based on the same principles that Brazil did.
Privatization means getting rid of Obamacare/ACA. Trump and GOP see that as socialised health care and have “concepts” to replace them.
Fortunately for them, Republicans will inherit a healthy economy from Biden, which will eventually lead to decreased inflation and lower prices, so all the voters will continue supporting Trump and his bullies.
Repeating the problem wont make it go away either.
Yet here we are after Trump’s awful first presidency and after he tried to overthrow the government. It’s all because we are giving him more attention than he deserves.
We should stop posting about Trump and his group of extraordinary morons.
The news cycle thrives on Trump, as every decision he makes manages to anger half the population, while the other half cheers him on simply to annoy liberals and progressives. This dynamic generates more clicks and ad revenue for news outlets, allowing Trump to continue making foolish decisions just to remain in the spotlight.
The only way to change this is to stop giving him space in the news.
There should be a petition to vote for banning Twitter in the EU. It’s time we take a step against US Oligarchs and their election interference
Come on, people here need to read the article and not just headlines:
“I don’t know what exactly happened, because if we knew, we would have helped him. But the speed and, above all, this late braking, and then he goes left or right… in these last few years he tried but it was no longer there, the killer instinct was gone.”
And further
“[The timing] was related to a variety of factors and obligations,” he explained. “He was informed, and the worthy farewell performance was, I think, the fastest lap.”
“That still showed what potential he has, not continuously and not at the level that would have justified him coming to Red Bull Racing, but that was an impeccable performance.”
A very difficult interview considering that it’s pretty clear what will be happening but not official announced. Sad to see him go like this.
He’s the reserve driver for both Mercedes and McLaren, which means he spends a significant amount of time in simulators and occasionally gets test runs in their cars. He’s also done Pirelli tire testing and even had a shootout for Alpine. All done in more recent F1 cars than his Haas days.
No crashes, no complaints—just praise from several team principals. Steiner crafted a particular narrative around him, but without that, he’d likely be seen in the same light as Drugovich or any other experienced reserve driver familiar with Merc engines.
Come on. We are not on reddit, check the facts and make fair assumptions.
In the second half of his last F1 season Mick was much better than Magnussen and didn’t crash at all. In endurance he had no crashes at all and is besides the fastest driver for Alpine.
The boy is not the next Verstappen, but a solid driver that shows potentials, a really great team player and is learning from his mistakes. Give him a fair chance and judge afterwards.
Wasn’t it announced already Haas paid the $12 Mio. to Uralkali and Monza is safe?
Still don’t know how the Swiss court could rule in favor to Mazepin/Uralkalis with all that embargos in place against Russia.
Currently still a rumor, but Motorsport Italy is usually solid with its sources. It seems Doohan showed better times than Mick Schumacher in the shootout. For German fans, Mick still has chances with Audi.
He was prime minister from 2003 to 2014 before initiating a constitutional referendum, creating a presidential system for him in 2014. Ball slapping happened 4 years into his prime minister government.
And he’s not…or at least Mercedes screwed it up again
Edit: Sainz signed with Williams. Truly silly season. So Antonelli announcement for Mercedes soon?
I doubt that Sainz has a clause for Red Bull. This option is unlikely, as it’s tied to two scenarios:
It’s clear that neither Lawson nor Tsunoda will get a shot for the second Red Bull seat. If they only decide to kick out Perez after this season, Sainz may have a chance at Red Bull, but so does Horners favorite Ricciardo.
Until then, Sainz will likely sign with Alpine or get the Mercedes seat, as Antonelli has publicly stated that he still needs some time to develop, which means either he takes a stint in the Williams seat or another year in F2.
Honestly, I doubt that Horner, who reportedly protected Perez so far and pushed for his contract extension, can keep him in his seat any longer.
Unfortunately, we likely won’t see Tsunoda or Lawson in Perez’s seat after the summer break; instead, Ricciardo will probably take over until end of the year.
This could also shift the driver market, possibly leading to Sainz moving to Red Bull if Ricciardo underperforms.
He wants the Red Bull or Mercedes seat, with Audi or Alpine (most likely his 3rd option) as fallback options. I see Carlos more likely replacing Perez, as RB seems hesitant to give Tsunoda or Lawson a shot next to Max. Ricciardo might get a chance this year to prove himself if they decide to replace Perez after Spa.
My bet is Andreas Seidl will takeover. A week ago I would have bet a return for Binotto for Alpine. Cyril returning would also be funny as hell though.
Seriously. Americans act like scared puppies, barking but backing down when facing an inbred orange pomeranian.
The people have the power. Organize statewide protests, block roads, and mobilize the working class to stand against fascism. Be more like the French citoyens.
Stop waiting for someone else to save your asses. This is 2016 all over again, when you pinned your hopes on Mueller or some other investigator. No one is coming.
Stop whining. Take action. Fight fascism.
