⚡️🇪🇸🇺🇸 NEW - Spain’s PM Pedro Sanchez: After much reflection, Spain has decided not to participate in the so-called Board of Peace. We thank them for the invitation, but we decline. This board is outside the United Nations framework. It does not include the Palestinian Authority. The future of Gaza and the West Bank must be decided by Palestinians. Spain has tripled its defense spending since I became prime minister. We are investing €34 billion a year in defense. At the same time, we will not renounce public healthcare, public education, social cohesion, or development aid. Security is not only weapons. Security is scholarships for our children. Security is public hospitals for our elderly.

They’re an Israeli network, their former name was literally FreeMap Israel before it was Waze. I was exposing my location public everyday for years. Bye-bye Waze."

⚡️🗣️ WATCH - One of the most revealing moments from Trump’s Davos speech was when he stated an uncomfortable economic reality out loud — whether people like him or not. You cannot lower housing costs for young people without destroying millions in wealth for boomers "Every time you make it more affordable for somebody to own a house cheaply, you are actually hurting the value of those houses. I don't want to do anything to hurt the value of their house. If I wanted to crush the housing market, I could do that so fast that people could buy houses. But you would destroy people who already have houses." Our politicians are sacrificing people in their 20s and 30s for the prosperity of boomers Let that sink in

⚡️💬 MY THOUGHTS - They have trapped part of humanity. Since people no longer have religion, they spend hours and hours debating politics. On the internet, with their families, everywhere. They cling to politics like monkeys to a branch. They debate, debate again, defend their camp as one once defended a faith. Some no longer speak to their own family because of politics... When the party collapses or disappoints, there is nothing left. No more attachment, no more transcendence, no more meaning. So they put their hope in the new candidate who is in vogue. Religion has not disappeared. Unfortunately, it has been replaced by politics in some families. Only horizontality. No more verticality. And what a bad change... I won't go any further.
