Göran Sundström kallas till SR P1 så fort något Tidöförslag ska kritiseras. Och behandlas då som en objektiv statsvetare. Här visar @PatrikKronqvist att Sundström är en S-teknokrat som felaktigt hävdar att svensk demokrati urholkats av Tidö. expressen.se/ledare/patrik-k…

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's decision to abolish the country's citizenship income welfare scheme and introduce stricter benefits has coincided with unemployment falling to its lowest levels in two decades, including in southern Italy.
Italy reached a record 24.36 million employed people in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 246,000 from the previous year. Unemployment fell to 6.3%, while the employment rate reached a historic high of 63.4%.
In southern Italy, approximately 500,000 jobs were created between 2021 and 2024, with regional GDP growing 8.5%, compared with 5.8% in central and northern Italy. Sicily's employment rate rose from 44.4% in 2020 to 51.4% in 2026.
Meloni's reforms, introduced in 2023 and fully implemented in January 2024, replaced the previous welfare system with targeted assistance for vulnerable households and employment or training requirements for other eligible adults.

Jos Venäjä jatkaa hyökkäyssotaansa, ei venäläisurheilijoilla ole ensi vuonna Suomeen asiaa.
Aion edistää tarvittavia toimia tulevina päivinä.
Lokakuun ulkoasiainneuvostossa kirjelmöin EU-kollegoille, että rajoittaisimme venäläisurheilijoiden pääsyä koko Schengen-alueelle. Komissio on työn päällä.

Spanish cybersecurity authorities have detected jihadist messages encouraging terrorist attacks against police officers and demonstrators in France, Spain, Italy and Portugal.
The messages, published on a website linked to supporters of the Islamic State (ISIS), urge extremists to exploit mass demonstrations, street clashes and civil unrest to carry out attacks.
France is specifically highlighted as a potential target because of the large crowds gathering in its streets. Police officers occupied with controlling riots are also identified as potential targets.

This is a must-read, from a man who defected from the Communist bloc to the USA 40 years ago. "What worries me the most is not Trump himself or those who do his bidding, but rather the willingness of so many ordinary citizens to look away."

In today’s Vatnik Soup, we examine the ties of Donald Trump and his family to Russian intelligence operatives and the Kremlin. His current dealings with Putin may shock some people, but the pattern of collusion has been clear for more than a decade.

A lack of spare parts for aircraft due to sanctions was a serious problem for Russia. Trump rushes to Putin’s rescue yet again, while Russia concedes nothing and continues to murder Ukrainian civilians.
The United States has lifted restrictions on the Boeing Corporation’s engagement with the Belarusian national airline, Belavia -Igor Cherginets, Director General of Belavia, as reported by the news agency BelTA.
The U.S. Department of Commerce has granted Boeing authorization to work with the Belarusian airline. "This will allow Belavia to directly obtain spare parts, components, and software for the aircraft currently in its fleet. Furthermore, it paves the way for negotiations regarding the direct acquisition of aircraft from Boeing. It is worth noting that a similar authorization had previously been issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, which provided the technical framework for direct cooperation between Belavia and Boeing. A year ago, the U.S. government issued an authorization that removed all sanctions—specifically political sanctions—against Belavia," the airline’s Director General stated.

Our long-range sanctions have targeted the Rostov region. The Kamensky Combine, a Russian defense industry enterprise involved in missile production, was hit.
A Pantsir-S2 system and a command and staff vehicle of the S-400 Triumf system were also hit. The total value of the air defense assets struck is around $70 million.
I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine @ServiceSsu and other units of the Defense Forces for their accuracy! We are justly defending ourselves against Russian aggression and doing everything to reduce Russia’s capability to continue it.

In October, our Defense Forces of Ukraine inflicted record losses on the enemy and recaptured more territory than the Russian occupiers managed to seize.
In just one month, Russia lost 54,400 troops killed or badly wounded. This is a record for any month of the full-scale war. There was also a record for daily losses – the Russian army lost 2,250 troops on October 21. Importantly, we continue to reclaim what is ours. In October, the Defense Forces liberated 96.2 square kilometers of Ukrainian land, which is 10.4 square kilometers more than the occupiers managed to capture during that time.
We thank all our defenders, all our warriors, every brigade, and every unit for this important result for our country. Russia is suffering losses. We are holding our positions, liberating territory, and making every day of the war as costly as possible for the aggressor. To stop these insane losses, all Russia needs to do is choose a ceasefire and diplomacy.

"Did Donbas rise up? Yes, Donbas rose up, I was there and saw with my own eyes how the uprising was strangled." "By whom?" "By Moscow."
This is a stunning admission from prominent Russian Z-blogger and journalist Maxim Shevchenko. He openly confirms what Ukraine and international investigators have stated for 12 years: Moscow never intended to "help" or "liberate" Donbas. Instead, the Kremlin staged a hybrid operation, hijacked local sentiments, and ruthlessly crushed any genuine autonomy to turn the region into a completely dependent, war-torn gray zone. The puppet masters themselves are now forced to admit that Russia set up, used, and abandoned Donbas to ruins

Hahahaha. “Ukraine's strikes on Russian oil infrastructure have been greeted with a ‘shrug’ in Washington, according to a U.S. official who spoke to the Kyiv Independent. Another figure close to the administration told the Kyiv Independent that much of the administration's rhetoric around Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil infrastructure was aimed at a domestic audience, pointing out that the CIA was still supplying Ukraine with intelligence on Russian air defense dispositions that helped facilitate Ukraine's deep-strike campaign.”

In 2020, I wrote about the Law and Justice government's assault on the judiciary. This is the background you need to understand what is happening in Poland today.
