#IAA: EU wants 25% low-carbon steel in every bridge by 2029. EV batteries must be 70% EU-made. Germany calls it a โ€œbureaucratic monster.โ€ France calls it a fortress. The real fight? A 3โ€‘year cliffโ€‘edge for cathode supply chains. Watch the breakdown ๐Ÿ‘‡ hyperion-tree-digital.eu/

EU wants to blacklist entire countries from your digital supply chain. The EU Cybersecurity Act 2 gives ENISA new teeth & a โ€œhighโ€‘risk countryโ€ mechanism. But how to prove a countryโ€™s legal system is a security threat? Thatโ€™s the real battleground. Watch the short โ†“ ๐Ÿ‘‰SHARE

If you claim to support human rights yet canโ€™t bring yourself to show solidarity with those fighting for their liberty in Iran, youโ€™ve revealed yourself. You donโ€™t give a damn about people being oppressed and brutalised so long as itโ€™s being done by the enemies of your enemies.

The Iranian regime once again tries to survive by sheer brutality toward its own people.
A massacre is unfolding in Iran. The world must act now to prevent further loss of life.

The Regime in #Iran turned off the internet and even street lights in Teheran so the world wouldnโ€™t see how big the crowds are. Iranians still went out in thousands, lit the crowds with their phones and circumvented the Blackout. Letโ€™s amplify their voices: (1/2)

Les progressistes occidentaux peinent ร  comprendre la rรฉbellion contre la Rรฉpublique islamique parce quโ€™ils considรจrent la religion musulmane comme une identitรฉ raciale et non une idรฉologie, et tout rejet de l'islam comme raciste. Le plus comique รฉtant que les mollahs font partie de ceux qui ont le plus ล“uvrรฉ pour populariser cette idรฉe en occident oรน elle devrait leur survivre. #Iran #IranRevolution2026 ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป @DeTahmineh

Het dappere Iraanse volk maakt schoon schip en wil voorwaarts. Het moet over zijn met het onder geweld dragen van een hoofddoek, het zaaien van terreur en het exporteren van geopolitieke chaos. Documenteer de misdaden en verwelkom de daders straks in Den Haag ๐ŸฆMalieveld vandaag:
Sprekers op manifestatie in den Haag waren @ANanninga (Ja21), @DonCeder (CU), #BartGroothuis (VVD), @rosenthal_uri en #KeyvanShahbazi. Ze roemden de dapperheid vh Iraanse volk en eisten het plaatsen vd RevolutionaireGarde op de terreurlijst. De demonstranten riepen om #RezaShah

Tehranโ€™s streets, and cities around the world, echo with the footsteps of Iranian women and men demanding freedom. Freedom to speak, to gather, to travel and above all to live freely. Europe stands fully behind them. We unequivocally condemn the violent repression of these legitimate demonstrations. Those responsible will be remembered on the wrong side of history. We call for the immediate release of all imprisoned demonstrators. We call for the restoration of full internet access. And we call, at last, for fundamental rights to be respected.

โ€œThe woke brigade are the least inclusive, the least tolerant, the least kind people. They became the fascists they claim to hate.. They became cancellers of free speech. Thatโ€™s not liberalism. Itโ€™s the antithesis of liberalism.โ€ ~ Piers Morgan xitter.cf/TheBritishIntel/statusโ€ฆ
