BER Abschiebegefängnis: Der Flughafen aller Probleme

Beim geplanten Abschiebezentrum am BER geht es nicht „nur“ um mehr Abschiebungen und mehr Abschiebehaft, sondern auch um richtig viel Geld: Mehrere hundert Millionen Euro hat das Land Brandenburg allein für Mieten und Pachten in den Haushalt eingestellt. Ein Investor soll das Abschiebegefängnis bauen, das Land Mieter werden. Obwohl es um so viel Geld geht, wurde der Bauauftrag ohne öffentliche Ausschreibung vergeben. Neue Recherchen der Rechercheplattform Frag den Staat in Kooperation mit dem Tagesspiegel weisen auf zahlreiche vergaberechtliche Ungereimtheiten hin.

New PM Starmer pledges to rebuild Britain after years of chaos

Britain's new Prime Minister Keir Starmer pledged on Friday to use his massive electoral majority to rebuild the country, saying he wanted to take the heat out of politics after years of upheaval and strife.

Standing outside his new office and residence at Number 10 Downing Street, Starmer acknowledged the scale of the challenge after his party's landslide victory in a parliamentary election ended 14 years of often tumultuous Conservative government. read more

Kylian Mbappe has called on people to vote against the far-right in France. The French captain and biggest cultural icon in the country has spoken out against Le Pen for the second time now during the Euros.

Le Pen came in first place at the recent EU parliamentary elections and then again during the first round of voting that took place at the end of June. Le Pen’s closest rival is the “New Popular Front,” a new alliance consisting of the Socialist Party, Communist Party, Melenchon’s “France Insoumise” and other leftist parties.

Macron’s centrist party is insisting that both “extremes” are as bad as the other, nevertheless, many local candidates from both his party and others are withdrawing to ensure that the anti-Le Pen vote is not split.

French police have mobilized 30,000 officers for Sunday due to fears that clashes could arise between the far-right and anti-fascist groups.

On this day, 5 July 1852, abolitionist and women's rights advocate Frederick Douglass delivered his famous speech "The meaning of July 4th for the Negro" in Rochester, New York. In it, he declared: "The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity, and independence, bequeathed by your fathers, is shared by you, not by me. The sunlight that brought life and healing to you, has brought stripes and death to me. This Fourth [of] July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems, were inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony."More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/10524/frederick-douglass-%22fourth-of-july%22-speech * If you enjoy our social media posts be sure to check out our podcasts.

Happy birthday, Frida Kahlo! While Kahlo is renowned worldwide for her art, style, and persona, many forget that she was a political activist whose artwork reflected her communist, anti-fascist, and anti-imperialist views. She joined the Mexican Communist Party in 1927 and her political convictions stayed with her even after her death when a hammer and sickle flag covered her coffin. Watch this video on her revolutionary legacy.

Good Idea: Do not hope for mars as backup plan

https://www.asimov.press/p/grow-mars

Transforming Mars into a habitable planet faces insurmountable challenges, including extreme radiation, toxic soil, freezing temperatures, and a severe lack of accessible water. Despite advancements in synthetic biology, creating life that can survive on Mars is unlikely.
Given these obstacles, it makes more sense to focus on restoring Earth, where life already thrives and where our efforts can yield more immediate, impactful results. Prioritizing the healing of our own planet is both a practical and scientifically sound strategy for ensuring a sustainable future for humanity.

God has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever
