Maybe she just wants to do some housework by herself and cleanse her soul
As much as we would like to pile on Von der Leyen's idiotic rant and stance against China not to mention fantastical expectations and power she assumes EU has over China posting ps pic of her ironing clothes is unnecessary and unbecoming of us as men. I don't need to go on spiel on how women are capable of doing x,y,z because we have women in our lives that testifies to the fact that they are very formidable in their own right.

Al-Jazeera pretty much parrots the western narrative regarding Taiwan and having a guest from Taiwan separatists clearly unaffected by the recent PLA military drills. His camp is more or less asking CHINA to bring it on.

Well, that’s what I told the fat kid at my elementary school before he beat my ass and buried my face in snow for around half a minute.

I think the leadership must know they are vassals (IRL, some S koreans got all mad when i told them they were lol) to be used and abused. Their main problem is that they are economically dependent on the US market and tech too much. I have no doubt, the US warn these guys jokingly over a bottle of soju "you want hyundai/kia to be tarrif? you want samsung to be sanction as national security risk?"

Is there any information / speculation in the public on the LAPIS satellite that came out of those leaks?
Likely no. ISR assets are easily among the closest guarded secrets of militaries. Let's look at what they written about it after the leak.

“LAPIS time-series video.” Officials familiar with the technology described it as an advanced satellite system that allows for better imaging of objects on the ground and that could now be more susceptible to Russian jamming or interference. They indicated that LAPIS was among the more closely guarded capabilities in the U.S. intelligence arsenal.

So we know it is an imaging satellite that is capable of video. We also know it can be jammed. My guess is it is a high-res video SAR satellite. I make this guess also because I remember some defense industry corporations advertising video SAR as a "revolution in intelligence gathering" a few years ago.

He asks Europe if Macron represents them, and if yes, and Europe doesn't want to be involved in Taiwan, maybe the US should also dont help Europe on Ukraine and instead focus on Taiwan.
Lil' Marco doesn't seem to understand that the war in Ukraine was primarily pushed by the US and every step towards peace was sabotaged by it (e.g. NS2 pipeline bombing). Absent US influence, the war would either have ended a long time ago or never began at all.
