The European caviar left is now tearing its hair out over the danger Musk poses to democracy. In contrast, when he was funding Democratic campaigns, he was something of a myth. Of course, not a word about Soros or the CEO of JP Morgan. The latter in particular wants to open the world’s largest digital bank in Europe by gobbling up European savings and acquiring sensitive data. But since the banks have always been generous with the Left all over the world, for heaven’s sake, no one says anything. The usual double standards

BUBBLEFLASH – The Council of European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) has just elected former Polish Prime Minister and PiS leader Mateusz Morawiecki as its president, succeeding Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. The head of the FDI delegation in the European Parliament, Carlo Fidanza, is one of the three vice-presidents of the ECR, the others being Marion Marechal of France and George Simion of Romania

In Greenland, the plan is Biden’s. And Europe sleeps as usual, lost in ritual declarations about the inviolability of borders under the now blind leadership of France and Germany. No one seems to want to understand that Trump’s shock phrases are more an invitation to the allies to open their eyes. In fact, the activism of China and Russia in such a resource-rich and increasingly crucial region as the Arctic should have worried the EU the most. Which, as usual, has no idea how to defend the area because it has no common army. And so it does not even consider how to exploit the raw materials that are essential for the continent

After Musk’s remarks about the EU being ‘undemocratic’, in Brussels there is strong disapproval of the creator of SpaceX and Tesla and his views. This is not the first instance of tension in this relationship. Meanwhile, the billionaire’s influence, having spent the past few weeks with President-elect Donald Trump, is growing and will inevitably influence his policies and his attitude towards the old Continent

BUBBLEFLASH – Parliament approves the Commission that will govern the old continent for the next five years. A team that will be the most conservative in a long time: almost half of the 27 commissioners, including von der Leyen, are from the centre-right, one is an ultraconservative and one is from the far right. There were 370 votes in favour, far fewer than last July. Not a particularly encouraging sign

Western Europe’s most important eastern flank surprised everyone with the first-round victory of Calin Georgescu, the candidate of the pro-Russian ultra-right. Romanian farmers and young people find Putin more attractive than Lady Ursula. In fact, if we are still arguing about yes or no to Eurobonds, or if we are still arguing about whether or not to put nativity scenes in institutions instead of creating a common European army and focusing on the traditions of Western culture, the battle with the Authoritarian East will be lost already at its start

The last few days have been a theater never seen before at the beginning of a European legislature. But one positive fact stands out: the essential role of the Parliament, which is to give confidence to the executive, has for the first time taken place with a higher degree of authenticity. This happened thanks to the tragedy of Dana in Spain and the resulting clash between the EPP and the S&D. Therefore, it would be appropriate to change the Treaties and make the relationship of trust between Parliament and the Executive continuous over time, as is the case in all developed democracies in the West. And not just once at the beginning of the legislature, as the basic treaties provide. A motion of censure on the Commission can then only be adopted by an extremely qualified majority and is therefore not comparable to a real vote of confidence or a motion of censure. This is what the seductive socialists and liberals of the S&D and Renew should propose instead of trying to exclude the ECR from the so-called “presentables”, a party that has instead shown great maturity in defending Ukraine and Western values

Proportional representation often leads to variable majorities in parliament. Something that S&D and Renew are unable to understand. So it seems that the stalemate that the EU institutions had reached in the process of forming the Commission has been overcome with a somewhat questionable formula: the three parties of the “Ursula” majority (EPP, S&D and Renew) will draw up some kind of political document that will serve as proof that this kind of majority is good, while the other majorities are bad. The EPP had cleverly divided the right into a pro-Western and constructive right (ECR) and a pro-Putin and defeatist right (Patriots and ESN). An operation carried out in the interest of the survival of Europe itself. Which of course the idiocy of the socialists and liberals would not accept because they are still intimidated by the electoral defeats they suffered in Europe

The tragicomedy of Europeans and the American speed – The hearings of the European Commissioners turn into a madhouse. But it is understandable because the possibility of events beyond the actual will of the protagonists is becoming concrete. Yesterday, the President of the Commission rushed to the Parliament. She spoke with the leaders of the S&D and Renew groups, who have plunged into the darkness of “political ebetism”

The defeat of the progressives, who in Europe have begun to tear their clothes off and scream the end of the world because of Trump’s victory, without realizing that this is an opportunity for the EU to become something serious. That is: to become a real state, capable of being a state. That is: to have at least a common defense, a parliament with the right of initiative, a central bank capable of acting as lender of last resort, a common debt and a common industrial policy capable of boosting internal demand, without wasting time behind the antics of Lindner, Ferber and other austerity-minded Germans, or the green stupidity of the Greens and Timmermans. Finally, do the most important thing: acknowledge your roots. All the most democratic and federalist constitutions in the world. From Switzerland’s to America’s, are not ashamed to guard the Word of God while allowing freedom of religion

The first four commissioners, Sefcovic, Micallef, Tzitzikostas and Hansen, pass the parliamentary test. All in a balancing game with words based on “but also”. Like Sefcovic, who on China looked like a juggler hanging by a thread. Also in these hearings, the formidable ECR-EPP axis jumps out at you.  If Fitto, for example, lacks the support of the Socialists, retaliation against Spain’s Teresa Ribera would be automatic. And in this case it would come not only from the conservatives, but from the EPP itself

The calm before the storm – Thousands of Georgians gathered in front of the national parliament in Tbilisi to demand the annulment of the election result, which saw the pro-Russian ‘Georgian Dream’ garner an absolute majority of votes. And what about reactions here? From Europe, solidarity, but no political action. So the Georgians who would like to be part of the EU will inevitably feel betrayed, and also inevitably end up in the arms of Moscow

Down to the last vote – In an incredible coup de theatre, the pro-Europeans take the lead in Moldova, but the country is split down the middle. Premier Sandu, winner of the elections with 42% (but with a runoff to face), denounces three hundred thousand votes bought from Russia. Heavy accusations made when the vote seemed to be going ‘No’. Now, however, all is silent: the country and the region remain with bated breath waiting for a definitive outcome. Tbilisi also watches from a close distance
