DIAGNOSIS: “TRUMP” Trump once again declared himself a “damn genius,” supposedly confirmed by doctors. Fine. But what he actually demonstrated—again—is something very different. And this time it happened in Florida. “You know, I’m the only president who’s taken a cognitive test. I don’t think Obama could pass it… And Biden? Give me a break… The first question is very simple. There’s a lion, a giraffe, a bear, and a shark. And the question is: which one is the bear? It’s a very standard test, but the last ten questions are very difficult. Not many people—even in this room—would be able to answer them.” The room, which had been laughing, went quiet—then broke into applause. As if to say: yes, Mr. President, we’re the idiots here, not you. And he kept going. “When I got my results, the doctor said: ‘Wow, I’ve never seen anything like this…’” Let’s slow this down. The test Trump is talking about is the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). It’s a basic screening tool used to detect possible cognitive impairment—dementia, Alzheimer’s, vascular or Parkinsonian issues. It is not an IQ test. It does not measure “genius.” Recognizing a bear isn’t an achievement—it’s a baseline function. These tasks assess visual recognition, language access, attention, and memory. Failing them can indicate neurological problems like agnosia, where a person sees an object but cannot identify it. Passing them simply means those basic functions are intact. Nothing more. The “very difficult” final tasks? Name as many words as possible starting with a given letter in 60 seconds (11 is considered normal). Explain what a train and a bicycle have in common (they’re both modes of transport). State the current date. That’s the level. If this feels like a major intellectual victory, that’s not reassuring. So what’s actually happening? Trump is using a medical screening tool to sell an image of brilliance. He’s replacing meaning with performance—turning a routine check of cognitive baseline into “proof” of exceptional intelligence. It’s not just incorrect; it’s manipulative. The real purpose of the test is simple: to determine whether an aging person remains cognitively stable. Now, could this behavior itself point to something? Possibly. In the DSM-5—the global standard for diagnosing mental disorders—there’s what’s known as Cluster B: personality disorders marked by dramatic, emotional, and erratic behavior. One of them is Narcissistic Personality Disorder. It’s defined by a persistent pattern of grandiosity, a constant need for admiration, and a lack of empathy. It affects relationships, judgment, and emotional stability. It occurs in about 1–2% of the population, more often in men, and typically begins in early adulthood. On its own, it doesn’t always require treatment. But it becomes a serious issue when it leads to destructive decisions—especially at the level of state power. And that’s where the real question begins.

MAGA calls Europe freeloaders. Here’s what they’re not telling you. ​1. Ramstein Air Base, the most important US military hub outside America, is built on German land provided rent-free, with Germany contributing hundreds of millions to its upkeep. The US couldn’t replace it anywhere in the world. 2. Every US military operation in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia flows through Ramstein. Lose it and US power projection in the Eastern Hemisphere is crippled. 3. The UK provides and maintains RAF Lakenheath used almost entirely by the US Air Force. Italy provides Aviano. Greece provides Souda Bay. Turkey provides Incirlik. European land. European infrastructure. American operations. 4. The US Sixth Fleet depends entirely on European ports for fuel and supplies. Souda Bay, Naples, 11 Greek ports. Without them the Sixth Fleet cannot operate in the Mediterranean or project power into the Middle East. 5. The majority of NATO’s intelligence and surveillance capacity is hosted on European soil and fed directly to the CIA, NSA and Pentagon. 6. Early warning radar at Fylingdales, UK. Missile tracking in Greenland. Norwegian monitoring stations near Russia. All dependent on European goodwill. 7. It would cost America MORE to bring the troops home than keep them here. European hosts subsidise roughly a third of all basing costs. 8. Europe is America’s largest arms customer. Stop buying American and part of their defence industry goes bankrupt. 9. The bases aren’t charity. They’re America using European soil, European money and European goodwill to project power across the world. 10. We’re not the freeloaders.

Who needs allies? Trump talking about Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: "He didn’t think he would be kissing my ass, he really didn’t. And now he has to be nice to me. He better be nice to me."

Roligt med liberalerna. De tjafsar alltså om de vill stanna kvar i riksdagen eller försvinna som parti?

This is hilarious! Saturday Night Live is funny again.

He killed 542 men in 100 days without ever looking through a scope. Then he disappeared back into an ordinary life — so ordinary that the world nearly forgot he had ever existed. Simo Häyhä was small in stature — five foot three — stocky and quiet. His hands were calloused from farm tools, not polished by ceremonial sabers. In the rural southeast of Finland, near the village of Rautjärvi, he was known as a dependable neighbor. He hunted. He farmed. He kept to himself. Nothing about him suggested legend. Then came November 30, 1939. The Soviet Union invaded Finland, beginning what would later be known as the Winter War. Moscow expected a swift campaign. The Red Army brought roughly half a million soldiers, along with tanks, aircraft, and artillery. They outnumbered Finnish forces by nearly three to one. On paper, it looked less like a war and more like an inevitability. But snow does not follow paper calculations. That winter was merciless. Temperatures dropped to minus 40 degrees. Engines froze. Metal stuck to bare skin. Forests swallowed sound. The Finns knew the terrain the way farmers know their fields and hunters know animal tracks. Simo Häyhä was one of those men. He had grown up skiing through those forests, reading wind and shadow, standing motionless until game appeared. When he joined the Finnish Army, he did not transform into something new. He simply applied the skills he had built over years to a different purpose. Dressed head to toe in white, he vanished into the snowfields. He packed snow in front of his rifle barrel so the muzzle blast would not kick up powder and reveal his position. He held snow in his mouth to cool his breath, reducing the visible vapor that could give him away in the cold air. He lay still for hours, sometimes entire days, letting the forest settle around him. He did not stalk. He waited. What made him especially dangerous was a choice most snipers would consider illogical. He refused to use a telescopic sight. While others relied on scopes, Häyhä used only iron sights — the simplest aiming system available. He believed a scope could reflect sunlight like a signal mirror. It required lifting the head slightly higher, increasing visibility. In extreme cold, lenses could fog or freeze. Iron sights were lower, sturdier, and more reliable. He trusted his rifle and his eyes. In fewer than 100 days of combat, he recorded more than 500 confirmed kills with his rifle. Some estimates place the number at 542. That figure does not include additional enemy soldiers he killed with a submachine gun in close combat. Five hundred men. In forests locked in ice. In a war his country was not expected to survive. The Soviets gave him a name: the White Death. White Death. Sniper teams were dispatched to hunt him. Entire units were tasked with finding one farmer in a white jacket. Artillery shelled forests where scouts believed he might be hiding. Officers warned soldiers against careless movement across open ground. The idea that one man could inflict such damage deeply unsettled them. He was no longer just a sniper. He became winter with a trigger. On March 6, 1940, a Soviet explosive bullet — designed to maximize damage — struck him in the face. It shattered his jaw, tore through his cheek, and disfigured the left side of his face. Comrades found him unconscious, barely recognizable, and carried him from the battlefield, assuming he would not survive. He fell into a coma. Seven days later, he opened his eyes. The day he regained consciousness was the day the war ended. Despite overwhelming odds, Finland endured. The country lost territory but retained its independence. Häyhä, disfigured and permanently changed, survived the conflict that turned him into a myth. Then he did something almost no one expected. He went home. No book deals. No speeches about heroism. No attempt to turn reputation into money. He returned to Rautjärvi, to fields and forests.

Hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää Viro. Suomi ja Viro ovat läheisiä ystäviä ja liittolaisia. Virolla on erityinen paikka suomalaisten sydämissä. Pieninä maina tuemme toisiamme ja tuomme yhdessä äänemme kuuluviin Euroopassa, EU:ssa ja Natossa.

Tomorrow, 24 February, marks four years of russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. Tomorrow also marks the day Finland has been free for exactly one day longer than we spent under russian rule. We endured - and so will Ukraine. Слава Україні! 🇺🇦🇫🇮
