Wurde als Politikwissenschaftler gefragt, warum POTUS Trump auf die Kritik seines Vizes JD Vance so erstaunlich kleinmütig reagierte. Die Antwort findet sich im 25. Zusatzartikel der US-Verfassung von 1967: Vance könnte Trump mit der einfachen Mehrheit im Kabinett für amtsunfähig erklären & absetzen. Würde Trump schriftlich widersprechen, so entschiede binnen 21 Tagen der Kongress (Repräsentantenhaus & Senat) je mit Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit über die Rechtmäßigkeit der Absetzung. Da die Demokraten nun in beiden Häusern des Kongresses solide Mehrheiten haben, reichen Teile der GOP-Gewählten, um Trump ohne Impeachment-Verfahren loszuwerden. Vance weiß das & Trump wittert es. Und wer wollte bestreiten, dass der 80jährige Wutsurfer der algorithmischen Wutwelle seit 2012 zunehmend amtsunfähig erscheint? Trump ist 1 „lame duck“ im Fadenkreuz des Zöglings von Peter Thiel… #Politikwissenschaft #USA #Verfassung #Trump #Vance #Artikel25 #Absetzung #POTUS #Thiel #Wutwelle #MAGA #Kongress

@snaefell@mastodon.social Ja, ich halte den auch vom deutschen Axel-Springer-Konzern hofierten Apokalyptiker Peter Thiel für außerordentlich gefährlich. Und habe das auch mehrfach öffentlich gesagt. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten hat Thiel die Medienpsychologie der Mimesis im Blick, glaubt zudem an Verschwörungsmythen sogar Richtung Papst & an die Notwendigkeit eines rechtsdualistischen Katechon. Und hat sich dabei besser im Griff als die Thymoten Trump & Musk. #Thiel #Mimesis #Katechon #Vance #Verschwörungsmythen #Papst #Apokalypse #USA #Deutschland #AxelSpringerKonzern

Peter Thiel: Wenn der Antichrist instrumentalisiert wird

Mit seinen Investitionen machte Peter Thiel Milliarden. Gleichzeitig gilt er als Strippenzieher der Neuen Rechten in den USA. Jüngst schrieb er über Benedikt XVI. und den Antichristen – und offenbarte ein gefährliches Weltbild.

Next #pandemic could be brewing on mink farm in #Utah; little being done to stop it

#Mink farms are perfect petri dishes for #deadly #flu strains to emerge

Could this be ground zero?

It’s a candidate, because chain of events to trigger #plague far worse than #Covid-19 looks like disaster film opening sequence. A really bad disaster movie

Mink farms are the perfect petri dishes for deadly flu strains to emerge. Yet officials appear to be protecting business interests over human lives, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

#USA #US — Slower electrification could cost the U.S. economy a cumulative $2.3 trillion through 2035. — Restricting renewable growth is estimated to cost $121 billion from 2027 to 2033. — Policy uncertainties have led to the cancellation of 20-25% of solar projects. — U.S. electricity prices have already risen more than 40% since the start of the pandemic (text available in “reading mode”) https://www.masslive.com/opinion/2026/11/environmental-injuries-mount-with-each-passing-day-of-trump-20-paul-chiampa.html #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#USA #US This was the “affordability election” with concerns about inflation & high energy prices Newly elected lawmakers will enter office with energy policy proposals to address voter concerns She noted that renewable energy is less expensive than fossil fuels and can be developed quickly, promising rapid benefits for consumers. The growth of electric transportation reduces greenhouse gas emissions & shields consumers from the volatility of gasoline & diesel https://insideclimatenews.org/news/05112026/inside-clean-energy-democrats-trifecta-results/ #climate

Democrats’ Big Statehouse Wins Could Transform Climate and Energy Policy - Inside Climate News

Before Tuesday’s election, Republicans held more governorships and state legislative seats than Democrats, along with an advantage in state trifectas—unified control of the governor’s office and both chambers of the legislature. That advantage has disappeared, clearing the path for more climate and clean energy legislation, according to analysts and advocates. Democrats swept the vast majority […]

#students #USA #US Only four percent of college students in a recent survey reported feeling hopeful about the climate crisis frequently or “a lot.” Many others reported a bleak mix of powerlessness, frustration, and anxiety. Yet universities may not be doing enough to help students manage these difficult emotions https://www.earth.com/climate/a-generation-feeling-powerless-college-students-are-overwhelmed-by-climate-anxiety/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#USA #US Fires in the U.S. are getting faster, larger and more dangerous, but people continue to develop and move into fire-prone regions. New research from the University of Colorado Boulder's Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) shows that if we don't act on climate change, which fuels fires, manage vegetation or transform how we build and adapt to fire, the risk to structures in the U.S. will almost triple by midcentury https://phys.org/news/2026-11-losses-triple.html #ClimateChange

#USA #US Most forecasts project Democrats winning the House and a narrow majority in the Senate in the November 3 election. But without control of the White House, passing any legislation will be difficult and almost any climate policy will have to be a bipartisan endeavor, say analysts Given that and the Democrats’ messaging-shift to affordability over climate, few experts expect a fully resurrected Inflation Reduction Act https://globalnation.inquirer.net/345354/for-us-democrats-climate-policy-is-now-about-energy-bills/amp #ClimateChange #pollution #ecology #climate

@tusk81@mastodon.social With all that the Trump regime is doing with ICE, I am constantly reminded of this quote from *The Diary of Anne Frank* "Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared". Anne Frank, 1943 #Trump #ICE #Nazis #GOP #Politics #US #USA #Quote #Quotes #Meme #Memes
