> wirkt auf mich gesteuert und inszeniert und ist es auch.🤔Jep. Erinnerungen an 2015 werden wach, als Putin Syrien bombardiert hat und damit die Fluchtbewegungen ausgelöst hat, die seine Parteien in ganz Europa massiv ausgenutzt haben. Auch wenn nicht ganz klar ist wer hinter dieser aktuellen Aktion steckt (Hmmm… wen hat die spanische Regierung zuletzt erzürnt?) ist klar: Geflüchtet als Waffen. Das ist Hybrider Krieg.

Welcome to the next iteration of Hybrid War. If you thought only RU, CN, IR, KP were the enemies, think again.
All autocratic-protofascist regimes are our enemies, even if our governments & media still call them our friends.

The sadmission showed how #Trump has #weaponized the provision of federal #education, #energy, #health, #housing & #infrastructure #aid in his second term. Far from rooting out the sort of misspending that Trump sees as rife in Washington, the White House has instead sought to #leverage the budget as a tool to assist its allies — or as a cudgel to hurt Trump’s foes.

#AI is now #weaponized. With the use of Grok by the USA and autonomous drones in Ukraine for target selection, AI is now a "dual use" #Technology. So expect more embargos in the future.
[BTW: I personally never believed Human-in-the-loop is a viable solution to exert human control over AI. It just slows the processes down to be efficient.]
AI is not only military weaponized, but also geopolitical. Countries that want to use advanced US-made #ArtificialIntelligence, are bound to comply to the whimps, euh… conditions of the USA. AI soeverignity is a political choice, no longer a pure business one. Use second class AI technology and be "free" or use state of the art technology and be dependent.
And AI is becoming socially weaponized. More and more people don't want to live in an AI governed society. The dreams of a brave new world envisioned by Silicon Valley will face more and more opposition. Building massive data centers with huge energy and water consumption is facing more and more civil protests.
I know businesses don't like to incorporate geopolitics in their #Business strategies. Using AI agents is no longer an economical or commercial decision, it is a political one. The question will be: will my business be sustainable when using AI (or not). Though choices.

#Weaponized #dysregulation is one of the most subtle and effective control tactics in narcissistic and high‑conflict systems.
It doesn’t look like aggression.
It looks like emotion — big, overwhelming, destabilizing emotion.https://survivorliteracy.com/2026/06/04/narc-move-11-weaponized-dysregulation/

For #activists , #journalists , & everyday users, that means now living with a constant threat: the phone in your pocket, the platforms you organize on, and the systems you rely on for safety and connection can be #weaponized at the flip of a switch. A global surveillance industry has treated repression by many #MENA governments as a growth opportunity, …now shape digital authoritarianism

I am writing an open #letter to all #political sides as an #introduction to #hope I wish to turn #hurt away from and closer into as such through #affirmative #action accordingly if at all possible.
Let me start out by saying, that I #believe in the #power of real human prayer as #unbound #energy finding its way through us. And in turn, I'm no #religious #person by and large, but I am going to send this #prayer out there anyways because I feel it needs to be #said as is.
This will be a prayer covering several #topics of conversation that I #feel are important and significant enough to relay as one broadcast.
To all #people I #pray that:
You realize living on your own #political #island sounds great in theory, be it on the #left or the #right of the spectrum. Or even at the #top or #bottom of it as well. But being unable to find or care for the #center of it, leaves you #vulnerable to #attack more so than anything else. And that is not a state of things I #desire for you to have to #live by.I pray that:
As #individuals you #collectively and #personally #understand that there are differences between the #perception of how you come across to others, and how others #perceive you in turn. It is okay to have a #difference of opinion, but to be #blind sighted by this, leaves you open to being #weaponized and I do not #wish that for you to have to #experience at all.#sovereignty
I pray that:
You can #recognize how someone wants to be able to experience #respect without having to diverge or divulge your #interest in a #potential #conflict as such. In order for us to be able to #trust each other, we have to #remember how to #treat one another as #equals rather than constantly #competing for #dominance based on denying that there #exists a spectrum of #agreeability at play that we are all apart of.#CommonSense
I pray that:
We keep building upon #frameworks that do not need to become a totally separate #foundation that exists just to serve you. But rather, exist as #modular #blocks that can join and detach from one another as already built #structures full and complete. This way, we are not trying to conflict over what block we have to share space with someone else in prioritizing. Because the entire thing is ours to shape in our own way. And so as a #metaphor, I feel it is #important to attach to the idea of having a sense in common, as opposed to a common sense where applicable, of things that cause us to #fight over how #relevant it is to most of us around the #actual or #planned #change currently in motion.#battles
I pray that:
We are able to tell when to be #still and when to #move upon any #focus that #captivates us in part. Whether it exists as apart of a #whole or not. Doing so will help us make the best #impact #possible for the change we want to make a #reality for the #cause we are #concerned for.And ultimately, I pray that we can move past the blatant need to have an #existential #crisis be on full display at the #crossroads of #agendas being carried out as they are each in turn, #instigated by #georegional #tribalism that serves nobody accept to put #humanity as a whole last, not first, as I intend to do.
All of these things are #real and can be #fixable and #doable as such. And I want to make sure, that this reality does not have a chance to get far out of #control the way it currently has.
For it is #outcomes like this, that #incomes should never have appropriately #manifested into #place that I want to #avoid and keep #preventable from ever #happening again.
To me, I find it very #unfortunate that we are living through #times of such blatant #hardship that should not have to be so unnecessary in today's day and age. For in this latest #protest #style #news #video we see this very inteersection of mounting, preventable #activities #culminating all at once in a display of #violent #behaviour best #repurposed for other #interests in my #opinion acordingly.

In #America #israel and #Canada or anywhere else in our #world we should not have to worry about #migration #problems at home #effecting the #symptom of #indifference at the #core of #ineffective #deference as such. Rather, if we simply #agree to #adapt our time towards #focusing on the #things we can #bear #witness to as our own #personal #legacy then I say we have done enough for our #community be it or we tied to a particular #faith or not.
I say this, in my own #human name for all it is worth. Because that is who I am now, and if any #guardian #angel believes this to be #true then all I ask, is that you add yours to this prayer and pass it forward.
Thank you for your #attention to this #matter as such. I #appreciate it and you very much for the #blessing that you are.

Our need to weaponize everything is extant. We have #Weaponized farts, dirt, light, sound, atoms and their nuclei, beef, chicken, fish and potatoes. Enough already. Having to pry more money away from blowing stuff up in order to fix roads and bridges was a line crossed a long time ago.
We should prioritize #Peace . It's a lot less expensive. -

“These professionals were taken off anti-#terrorist investigations. They were taken off #HumanTrafficking investigations all to look up … what dirt they could find on this group that some private agency, at the very highest levels of the #DHS decided — that’s the best use of those people,” Young said. “If ever you want chapter & verse about how the #government can be #weaponized against a disfavored group, that’s the record of it.”

Mills Lets ICE-Limiting Bill Become Law, Sidestepping Signature as Public Safety Critics Sound Alarm
By Jon Fetherston, December 15, 2025
"Gov. #JanetMills (D) announced on Monday she will allow a bill restricting how Maine law enforcement may cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to become law without her signature, advancing a controversial policy change opposed by law enforcement advocates and Republicans.
"The legislation, #LD1971, limits when state, county, and local police may investigate, detain, or search individuals solely for immigration enforcement purposes. The bill passed the Maine Legislature largely along party lines at the end of the June session.
"Mills had delayed action on the bill, previously calling it overly broad and confusing. Under Maine’s lawmaking process, that delay carried the measure into the next legislative session, where the governor could either veto it or allow it to take effect without her signature. On Monday, Mills said she would choose the latter.
"In explaining her decision, Mills said she still has concerns about the bill’s scope but pointed to what she described as increased and politicized immigration enforcement at the federal level as justification for allowing it to become law rather than vetoing it.
" 'As a former District Attorney and Attorney General and now as Governor, I carefully considered this bill. I’ve weighed my concerns that it imposes confusing restraints on law enforcement about when they can and can’t interact with Federal authorities against the extraordinary and horrifying actions of a Federal agency that has been #weaponized by the President to undermine the rights of us all. And I also agree with the bill’s aim of ensuring that Maine law enforcement are enforcing Maine laws, not Federal immigration law'. 'LD 1971 is imperfect, and we should not need it, but the times call for it. We cannot turn a blind eye to ICE’s unacceptable actions, and so I have chosen to allow LD 1971 to become law.' said Mills.
"Mills, also added 'Under any other president, this may be acceptable, but under this Trump Administration, it has become a broad and dangerous promise that Maine will not make,' she specified."

https://youtu.be/Qu8pudJk_-A?si=x56Y1X3k7pre8_5mI think finally we have the recognition that AARO is a dead letter box tasked with running interference. This is not new or revelatory but it matters that folks know the bad behavior is repetitive and purposeful. We don’t need to do a deep dive on intricacies of counterintelligence to get there.
From here there are no issues whatsoever… -

No tyranny is more cruel than the one practiced in the shadow of the laws and under color of justice — when, so to speak, one proceeds to drown the unfortunate on the very plank by which they had saved themselves.
[Il n’y a point de plus cruelle tyrannie que celle que l’on exerce à l’ombre des lois et avec les couleurs de la justice, lorsqu’on va, pour ainsi dire, noyer des malheureux sur la planche même sur laquelle ils s’étaient sauvés.]Charles-Lewis de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755) French political philosopher
Considerations on the Causes of the Greatness of the Romans and their Decline [Considérations sur les causes de la grandeur des Romains et de leur décadence], ch. 14 “Tiberius” (1734, 1748 ed.) [tr. Lowenthal (1965)]More info about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/montesquieu/79852/

Trump has weaponized the government to replace ‘wokeness’ with his version of diversity | CNN Politics

Trump has weaponized the government to replace ‘wokeness’ with his version of diversity
Analysis by Zachary B. Wolf, Updated 11 hr ago
A version of this story appeared in CNN’s What Matters newsletter. To get it in your inbox, sign up for free here.
It’s not news that the government is using withheld federal funds, the threat of blocked mergers and other strong-arm tactics to exploit pressure points and impose President Donald Trump’s version of diversity on the country.
It is new that the efforts are yielding results.
In higher education: The Department of Justice has transformed its Civil Rights Division into a strike team against what it views as unwarranted and illegal diversity efforts in higher education.
In private enterprise: The Federal Communications Commission approved a $6 billion merger between Paramount and Skydance only after in-writing promises to dismantle diversity initiatives.
In the media: That Paramount merger also hinged on commitments that CBS News’ “reporting will be fair, unbiased, and fact-based.” Given the furor raised by Trump and others over “60 Minutes,” the implication is that there will be changes. Read CNN’s full report.
Just as its parent company was agreeing to a diversity of opinions in programming, CBS also, coincidentally, cited financial losses to cancel “The Late Show” with Trump critic Stephen Colbert, who called Paramount’s settling of a lawsuit with Trump related to “60 Minutes” a “big fat bribe.”
In sports: There’s no evidence yet that Trump is willing to follow through on his threat to hold up a new stadium for Washington’s football team, now called the Commanders, unless owners revert to calling it the Redskins. The team has rejected the idea. Then again, pre-season camps are just now underway and Trump has been out of the country.
