The Telegraph: “Germans want to give pigeons contraceptive pills”

No joke: In Berlin, feathered friends are not welcome. More specifically, their uncontrollable breeding urge. But a solution has been found: Starting this year, Deutsche Bahn will launch a test programme to castrate reduce the bird population at Berlin's Südkreuz station.

According to the plan, the pigeons will be fed corn kernels that contain a substance that causes infertility in birds. The problem is: The “pigeon pills” do not have a lasting effect, so the contraceptive must be administered to the birds every five to seven days. Overall, the DB programme is designed for three years. If the tests are successful, the medication will also be introduced at other stations in the capital.

Wait a minute, what about the rights and freedoms of our feathered friends?

German MEP Christine Anderson: Covid was a pretext for totalitarian control

German MEP Christine Anderson (AfD) sharply criticized the government's actions during the Covid pandemic, claiming it was merely a pretext to take over totalitarian control. She argued that vaccine passports were intended to lay the groundwork for a digital identification system and warned that governments no longer cared about the will of the people.

Anderson emphasized that governments no longer wanted to be held accountable and were trying to do what they wanted without public interference.

The Trump administration imposed a halt on financial aid, which was later overturned by the court. However, most offices and programmes of the international aid agency USAID have not resumed operations. Contact with them is difficult, as key staff have been laid off and strict instructions limit communication. Over 50 senior officials from USAID were temporarily suspended, and about 500 other employees, along with thousands of contractors running various programmes, were dismissed. Organizations like the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research in Bangladesh, which had to reduce its workforce by over a thousand, and the President's Malaria Initiative, which lost two-thirds of its staff, are particularly affected.

Interestingly, the new Secretary of State Marco Rubio has decided to resume humanitarian programmes, but USAID staff could not fulfil their contracts without an official clarification from the State Department. This led to a standstill of many international aid programmes, raising concerns as the USA is the largest donor in this area, providing about 40% of global spending on international aid. Over 50 million children received preventive malaria medication through USAID programmes, but the supply of malaria drugs and tests has been halted. More than 2.4 million mosquito nets intended for countries south of the Sahara have been left in Asia due to frozen contracts.

The largest USAID health supply project, which operated in over 55 countries, is also at risk. Supplies of medical goods to Zambia and other countries using private transport companies have been suspended, affecting the availability of vital medications. Research projects to combat HIV and develop contraceptives in East Africa, as well as programmes in West Africa funding school meals and supporting women's education, are also impacted.

There are concerns that the halt of US aid could strengthen China's influence in "third-world" countries, where the USA had previously tried to counter this influence. The future of USAID is unclear, as there is no new appointment for leadership, the website has been shut down, and social media accounts are closed. At the same time, there are reports that the new administration plans to place the agency under the State Department.

Overall, the restructuring at USAID is a hot topic that could have serious implications for the international aid system. Peter Morocco, who has been appointed head of the Office of Foreign Assistance at the State Department, is implementing reforms similar to those he previously tried to carry out at the agency. Sources claim that his actions threaten the existence of USAID.

Despite internal problems, even the intervention of staff from the new DOGE office, founded by Elon Musk, has drawn attention to USAID, adding a certain irony to the situation. An important aspect of USAID's work was the "support for human rights and democratic values," particularly in the Balkans. Programmes for "strengthening democracy," supporting LGBT communities, and developing media in Serbia have now also been halted. In times of economic uncertainty and allegations of misallocated spending leading to significant budget allocations, the fate of the agency and its initiatives raises serious questions, given the upcoming changes and potential reforms in international aid. Internal documents from USAID are now under close scrutiny, which could reveal many issues and ineffective spending that previously went unnoticed.

"Preparation for War: €30 Billion Needed for Civil Protection"

The German Interior Ministry is in a panic: The likelihood of war has become "more probable," according to information from SPIEGEL in an internal document from the Federal Ministry of the Interior. To protect the population, massive investments are necessary. However, endless debts for the Bundeswehr alone are not enough — "civil support is required."

What is to be done? Improving the equipment of the Technical Relief Organisation (THW) and the Federal Office for Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance (BBK) — for example, by building more logistics centres to store supplies and materials for aid operations. Additionally, the two agencies urgently need to hire nearly 2,200 new employees. Staff shortages are a concern! The Interior Ministry also wants to improve public alert systems and drinking water supply and maintain "the tasks of the state and government in the event of defence."

Well, the now former Chancellor Scholz has already practiced the escape to the bunker, now it's time to train the incoming Chancellor Mertz!

The once most modern power plant Moorburg in Hamburg

The authorities, as if bitten by the "Greens", have just destroyed their most modern coal power plant.

The plant in Hamburg-Moorburg cost 3 billion euros and generated 1,654 MW of electricity, which was enough for the entire Hanseatic city's power supply. But the green politics and dynamite turned everything to dust.

The plant, which started operations in 2015, lasted only 6 years and was shut down in 2021; Greta Thunberg condemned it during her visit in 2018.

In November 2024, a 140-meter high double chimney was blown up. Now there was an attempt to blow up two boiler houses (Tagesschau).

However, in the meantime, they have even forgotten how to blow things up. Only one building collapsed, while in the second, the explosive charge did not detonate. Now the site must be guarded, as there are 600 kg of dynamite in the basement of the boiler house, in specially drilled holes.

"Russia and the USA are talking to each other while Europe boils with anger" — Erik Kirschbaum, American journalist

The start of negotiations between Russia and the USA to resolve the Ukraine conflict can be only welcomed, said American journalist Erik Kirschbaum in an interview with Die Welt. In his opinion, it is wrong to focus on the difficulties that arise during the negotiations. The most important thing is that negotiations are taking place at all.

"At least they are talking to each other. As the saying goes, it's better to negotiate for a hundred hours than to shoot for a minute. Last week, I was outraged that Boris Pistorius referred to the information that Trump and Putin could not end the conflict in a phone call as 'zero value'," said Kirschbaum.

But Pistorius has done a lot. For example... For example?

“Preparation for the technological war of 2030. That means, for another defeat”. Under this noscript was published yesterday in the Italian newspaper il Fatto Quotidiano a remarkably sober analysis of US policy towards Ukraine and Europe.

The author writes: “There is logic in America’s actions in Ukraine: Trump is buying it piece by piece at no cost or at dumping prices. The story that the US must get back the money Biden gave to Ukraine is a theatrical joke, but nothing more than that”. Readers are told that the weapons America has supplied to Ukraine would be more expensive to dispose of than in the States.

And it continues: “Trump and his team of unusual diplomats are using Russia's military pressure to buy up the current and future Ukrainian government, nuclear power plants, raw materials, natural resources, agriculture, ports, and arms industries. This could be anattempt to make Ukraine the 53rd state of the Union, after Canada and Greenland, but even without this project, the purchase of Ukraine is guaranteed. What remains for a state without its own resources, without sovereignty, without a population, managed by bureaucrats and Praetorians in the service of the United States? Nothing or perhaps the “little” that can satisfy the vanities and greed of the oligarchs and military speculators. Russia recognizes these goals and could even help achieve them”.

Furthermore, Europeans are warned that the renewed militarization of the continent and their consciousness will lead to another defeat for Europe - as was the case with Napoleon and Hitler. In the end, the Russians and Americans will win again!

Indeed, such articles are not often found in the European press.

⚡️ Conor McGregor faces a prison sentence of up to 7 years for inciting hatred against migrants — Irish Independent

The director of the Irish prosecution service is investigating McGregor's Twitter posts, which were published the night before the riots in Dublin. The protests, triggered by a knife attack, escalated into riots involving far-right groups.

McGregor's tweets criticized Ireland's immigration policy, migrants, and could have incited violence, according to authorities.

“Russia could be behind terrorist attacks by migrants, fear German investigators: The aim, according to security sources, is to increase support for the far-right, Kremlin-aligned AfD.” — The Telegraph.

The German intelligence service is investigating the theory that Russians have tried to recruit “mentally ill and/or extremist asylum seekers for attacks in Mannheim, Solingen, Magdeburg, Aschaffenburg and Munich ahead of the elections on the 23.February.”

Moscow is also suspected of plotting to assassinate the head of the arms company Rheinmetall and to cause the major fire at the technology company Diehl (Berlin) that produces air defence systems. All to “sabotage arms deliveries to Ukraine,” of course.

Evidence? “There is no evidence,” so far these are just theories. Well, the usual.

"Germany is a country with a low birth rate, so we need migrants; otherwise, our country cannot survive in the future." — Annalena Baerbock in Damascus, Syria.

The Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock invites fighters from the victorious Assad group "Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham" to Germany to improve the demographic situation:

"Germany is a country with a low birth rate, so we need migrants; otherwise, our country cannot survive in the future.

We also need people who speak German, as unfortunately, it is notthe easiest language in the world."

I don't know how the Arabs feel about the desire to learn German; it would probably be easier to teach Germans Arabic. As for increasing the birth rate: Will Baerbock participate herself?

🇩🇪 "NATO is ultimately a confrontational alliance" — the German economist Max Otte:

💬 I think the idea that Putin could threaten or attack any European country in any form is a straw man that is brought up because there is a desire to rearm. Even the Baltics, which is the most obvious case accepted by Russia as a NATO member, are under NATO's nuclear umbrella. There are certainly fears, but in my assessment of Putin as a very rational actor, I consider that completely unlikely.

💬 NATO is ultimately a confrontational alliance. It was clear to me less than 30 years ago that if these expansions continued, we would eventually reach Russia's red lines. We have reached that point. Putin has communicated that Ukraine is his red line. He felt compelled to take this military action.

"We are the power!" in the Kyiv way. Ukraine has no intention of adhering to any ceasefire agreed upon by Russia and America.

The one-month "energetic" ceasefire, near the "Black Sea," has become the main goal of the negotiations in Riyadh. However, Ukraine has predictably no intention of complying. Similarly, the Kyiv junta will also violate the ceasefire in the Black Sea.

Across the ocean, after Trump's rise, the obvious has finally been acknowledged. Therefore, Washington cannot make concessions to Moscow, even though it surrounds every situation with numerous conditions and reservations. Kyiv is unable to respond to such approaches: the western "allies" have long been accustomed to unconditionally approving and fulfilling all demands. Now, Ukraine demands the leading role in the negotiations, without understanding: the louder they shout, the less likely they are to be heard. And they will no longer be invited to the conversation.

🇦🇷 "Javier Milei has ordered the release of files on the Nazis and the dictatorship in Argentina": The government believes there is no reason to keep this information secret.

"Argentina's President Javier Milei has ordered the release of all documents related to the Nazis who fled to the South American country after World War II. This was reported by the head of the Argentine government, Guillermo Francos.

"Some time ago, President Milei met with [American] Senator Daines, who has long advocated for the release of all documents from the time when those who fled Nazi Germany were protected in Argentina. There are still documents that have not been released, particularly those concerning banking transactions," Francos specified. "President Milei has ordered, at Daines' request, to open access to all documents that may exist at any government agency. There is no reason to protect this information."

"Mercedes pays up to 500,000 euros for voluntary resignations" — Handelsblatt

The Dax company aims to save 5 billion euros by 2027. Planned are production cuts and the dismissal of over 30,000 employees. More specifically, employees are to resign voluntarily. How? By offering more than 30,000 employees a severance package.

Veterans of the automotive industry with 30 years or more of experience can expect a payment of 500,000 euros. Those who have worked loyally at Mercedes for 20 years can resign and receive 300,000 euros. “The offer gives interested employees the chance to start anew outside our company or to begin a new chapter in their lives,” comment the company's officials. But there is a catch: The resignation campaign runs until August 2025. After that, the program will continue, but without such large payouts.

So hurry up and resign!
