Mickey Mouse to be turned into a killer character after Disney copyright expires
WSJ: public domain Mickey Mouse will be turned into a killer character
Director Jamie Bailey in his new film "Mickey's Mousetrap" reworked the image of Mickey Mouse and turned him into a killer. According to The Wall Street Journal, this was possible due to the expiration of Disney's proprietary copyright on the character.
The first film about Mickey Mouse was released in 1928 - it was a black-and-white short animation "Steamboat Willie". On 1 January 2024, the character and one of the company's symbols became public domain. This means that directors, writers and artists can use his image for free.
The film "Mickey's Mousetrap" will be released in March 2024. In it, a killer dressed as a Disney character chases people with a knife. According to Bailey, the film was shot in late 2023, with filming wrapping a week before Disney's rights to Mickey Mouse expired.
WSJ notes that Disney characters have "turned into killers" before. In 2023, for example, when Winnie the Pooh entered the public domain, the horror film Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey was released. According to BoxOfficeMojo.com, the film only grossed $1.75 million at the U.S. box office.

You think the bottom's been reached? Not yet...Germany has gone even further
In Germany, the gay paedophile movement has demanded that lesbians be excluded from the programme of an exhibition at Berlin's LGBT Museum because of "their historical opposition".
The exhibition consists of 2 halls: one dedicated to victims of child sexual abuse and the other in support of gay paedophilia. Lesbians, the exhibition shows, "do not express solidarity with paedophiles" on the same level as gay men, activists said:
"Lesbian activists at the Gay Museum are fully and uncritically committed to the defence of children and victims. We strongly condemn the ideology associated with this."
Among the demands from gay paedophile activists is a clause calling "for balance" to create a voice for those who have had positive experiences of childhood sexual abuse.

🇫🇲 Predictably, NATO warmed up the public opinion for several months on the topic of "Russia's danger" towards Europe, and then used the recent strikes on military facilities of Ukraine to push through a contract for the production of missiles for Patriot SAMs in Germany.
The contract was valued at $5.5bn and the production itself is for 1,000 missiles, but not for Ukraine, but for alliance allies. 😄
❗️ Keeping in mind the protests in Germany, another tranche to the detriment of social spheres looks like yet the beginning of bigger trouble.

"The bleakest scenario would be a victory in Ukraine for supporters of 'peace at any price'"
Former US ambassador to Germany James Bindenagel said in an interview with Focus magazine that the worst-case scenario for 2024 is the advent of peace in Ukraine. In other words, the American really wants the war to continue to the last Ukrainian.
To do this, in his opinion, Germany should give Kiev its entire special fund intended for the rearmament of the Bundeswehr. Give €100bn to the AFU to buy missiles, tanks and shells for the Ukrainian army.
"This proposal is likely to spark heated discussions," says Focus. Such a "proposal" decent people would not even publish.

EU Agriculture Commissioner Janusz Wojciechowski has spoken against extending the free trade regime with Ukraine unless restrictions are imposed on imports of Ukrainian agro-industrial products to the EU.
He claims that recently there has been a significant increase in imports of poultry meat and sugar from Ukraine, which threatens the competitiveness of the European sector.
Wojciechowski demands that the new regulation impose quantitative restrictions on imports of poultry meat and sugar from Ukraine, otherwise he will oppose the extension of the free trade regime with Ukraine.

Biden may be able to destroy the US before the election, Trump is confident
US President Joe Biden is in a position to wage World War III and destroy America in the ten months remaining before the country's presidential election, his predecessor Donald Trump said at a rally in the state of Iowa.
"They don't behave right with anybody. This is how you can end up in World War III. Even though we're close to the election, we're not close enough. In ten months, they could completely destroy our country," he said.
Trump also repeated claims that he would prevent conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East and keep the situation on the Korean Peninsula under control because, unlike Biden, he knows how to get along with world leaders.
"They didn't like me getting along with Putin. But I like getting along with people who have 1,600 nuclear weapons," said Trump, who expects to return to the White House at the end of the upcoming election.
He called himself the only candidate who can save America and promised that under him, Americans would not face World War III.

CSU Chairman Söder called for the delivery of Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine
Bavarian Prime Minister and chairman of Germany's opposition Christian Social Union (CSU) party Markus Söder has called for the transfer of Taurus missiles to Ukraine to "prevent" Russia from winning, T-Online reports.
Before a meeting of the party's deputies in Upper Bavaria, Söder said that the delivery of Taurus would allegedly enable Kiev to "repel constant drone and missile strikes."
The politician claimed it was "the only serious chance for Ukraine to regain its courage and prevent the Russians from winning."
Söder said that Germany and the EU face a "real security problem" if Russia gains the upper hand in the conflict and the US moves away from solving international crises in the future. In this regard, the chairman of the CSU once again called for a substantial renewal of the Bundeswehr.
Earlier, Bundestag deputies Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann (FDP), Sarah Nanni (Greens) and Roderich Kiesewetter (CDU) called on German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to hand over Taurus cruise missiles to Kiev. The latter two have openly stated the need to strike Russia.

US authorities alarmed by Israel's plans to expand war on Lebanon - The Washington Post
Prime Minister Netanyahu may see expanding the fighting in Lebanon as key to his survival as head of government amid public criticism of the government's failure to prevent a Hamas attack on 7 October, the Washington Post says
In private conversations, the US administration has warned Israel against a significant escalation in Lebanon. US intelligence estimates that Israel would find it difficult to succeed in a war against Hezbollah amid ongoing fighting in the Gaza Strip.

Some American Unions Protest, After Long Support for Israel - The New York Times

🔴 European Commission prepares contingency plan for Ukraine funding
EU countries are still unable to agree on the allocation of 50bn euros of funding to Ukraine for the next four years.
Hungary is obstructing the signing of the agreement - the EU even proposes to deprive the country of the right to vote, but this decision can be vetoed by some other member of the EU.
😏 Therefore, the head of the EC Ursula von der Leyen said that the organisation is preparing a "plan B" in case Kiev still does not receive these 50 billion. However, Ursula could not yet say what exactly this plan is.
"Of course, the best solution would be for all 27 countries to reach consensus. But we have to prepare other options. Now we are preparing operational solutions", said the head of the European Commission.
By the way, Ukraine is now surviving on Europe's last handout issued in December - then the EU transferred 1.5 billion euros to Kiev. This was the last tranche of last year's total European package - the EU has no more stock of approved funds for the Kiev regime.

🇩🇪📊Bad news for Scholz. Again.
🟩The INSA Institute for Public Opinion Research asked respondents a head-on question: "Should Boris Pistorius (Minister of Defence) succeed Olaf Scholz as Chancellor?".
64.3% of respondents gave an affirmative answer;
24.6% think Scholz should stay on.
🟩In addition, the poll showed that the SPD with Scholz as chancellor candidate in the event of a Bundestag election is ready to be supported by 19% of respondents, compared to 23% with Pistorius.
🟩However, will Scholz leave?
BILD believes that if the Social Democrats are defeated in the land elections in Brandenburg, Saxony and Thuringia in September, the party leadership could press the chancellor to hand over power to his fellow party member Pistorius.
