       Security Strategy that claims Europe is facing quote
       "civilizational collapse". Polish PM Donald Tusk has sharply hit
       back at Washington in what is now one of the world’s most-viewed
       social media posts of the weekend.

       Sometimes you just have to spit in the face of all of your
       allies in favor of a racist "gas station with a military" called
       Russia so that Russia doesn't release the pictures of you
       blowing "bubba" I guess?
       Lest we also forget that it's the Russian nation that's
       constantly collapsing, not European nations...
       This also begs the question; how does the US actually recover
       from Trumpism without collapsing itself?

       "how does the US actually recover from Trumpism without
       collapsing itself?"
       The main difficulty is winning back international trust. Even if
       a leftist administration retakes power at some point, how does
       it convince other countries that MAGA will not come back again
       later? The only way to do so is, as I have said from the
       beginning with absolute seriousness, to physically exterminate
       everyone who voted for Trump in 2020 or 2024. Without the whole
       world witnessing American determination in carrying this out,
       why should anyone ever trust the US again?

       Europe 'already formidable enough to deter any aggression even

       Germany summons Russian ambassador, accusing Moscow of sabotage,
       cyberattacks, and interference
       --- Quote ---
       > We begin The Day with Germany pointing the finger at Russia.
       On Friday, Germany summoned Russia’s Ambassador, accusing Moscow
       of carrying out sabotage, cyberattacks, and election
       interference. Berlin says it's all part of Russia's hybrid
       warfare that has intensified since its full-scale invasion of
       Ukraine.
       >
       > Germany is not alone in saying Russia is meddling in Europe.
       In recent months, Poland has accused Russia of sabotaging its
       rail infrastructure, while several European nations report
       violations of their airspace, including drone sightings, airport
       disruptions, and growing cyber threats. These claims have been
       denied by the Kremlin.

       No One Wants to Defend the West

       Democracies can implement conscription as well, lest we forget
       the US draft for the Vietnam war as an example. The real point
       is that Putin's Russia has the political will to wage total war
       over Ukraine, whereas the west does not.
