Before the 🇳🇱 election a lot of people (including me) said Yesilgoz’s strategy was idiotic and the VVD were doomed to disaster. That didn’t happen-they won more seats than expected, and are now kingmakers. It’s odd that there’s been no effort at a reckoning about how flawed the punditry was

The next time Trump disrespects a reporter, the whole press corps should leave the room. Forget that he's the president. If he won't respect others (esp. women and POCs), then why the fuck should anyone else respect him? (A press boycott would especially pain him since he thrives on attention.)

“I’d have no problem releasing the video” “I didn’t say that, you said that. Fake news.” 5 days apart 😬 (From @therecount.com )

What a strange coincidence

Trump dag 323: ICE eist afbreken kerststal zonder Jezus, Trump staat export chips naar China toe, dreigt in te grijpen bij overname WB/Discovery, kondigt AI-decreet aan, Habba weg als aanklager, Trump pleegde mogelijk zelf hypotheekfraude: reportersonline.nl/trump-dag-32...

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.

Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy identifies Europe as the main threat to America. Trump's agents are never going to stop interfering in European democracies until they are all comparable to MAGA.

It is becoming increasingly obvious that the oligarchs, backed by the scum in the Kremlin and the White House, want to carve up Europe between the USA and Russia.

The Trump Plan: * No independent Ukraine * No more European Union * No more NATO It's what the Krasnov regime has agreed to. It's *always* been the Trump-Putin.

Donald Trump isn't interested in wielding his antitrust authority to protect the American people and preserve competition in our economy — he's using it to reward his allies. It's all out on the open.

Dus de VVD en Yesilgöz worden dus beloond voor pueriel gestampvoet en een destructieve houding. Wat een kutland is dit toch geworden.

"Wapenstilstand"

BBB pleegt verraad jegens de boeren nu BBB-bewindslieden het vliegveld Lelystad willen gaan openen over de rug van talloze boeren. Een groter politiek verraad van de eigen achterban is nauwelijks denkbaar

Kabinet wilde niks doen tegen geitenhouderijen: eerst meer onderzoek. Nu is dat onderzoek er: omwonenden 73% meer kans op longontsteking. Zelfs op een km afstand nog 20% meer kans. Dus, minister Wiersma? Wil nog steeds niks doen. Kan die vrouw niet gewoon gearresteerd en opgesloten worden?

Saboteren, vertragen en ontkennen dat is hoe het ministerschap van Wiersma getypeerd zal worden toekomstige historici.

Ik vraag een debat aan over de Nederlandse afhankelijkheid van Big Tech! Sinterklaas is net uitgezwaaid en hoewel de goedheiligman alleen op zijn verjaardag cadeautjes uitdeelt, doet Nederland al jaren niks anders dan alle ICT in de uitverkoop!

Every right-wing oligarch, podcaster, hack, Russian apologist, paid influencer, and bot has been activated in a coordinated manner to attack Europe after the EU fined Musk.

For the first time, the Kennedy Center Awards were presented in the tiny Oval Office instead of the Kennedy Center For Performing Arts. Donald used his now-vulgar Oval Office for the ceremony to avoid the embarrassment of TV audiences seeing an almost empty theater.

Over het publieke bestel zijn ondertussen boekenkasten volgeschreven. Terwijl adviseurs lachend rijk worden, verandert er al jaren niets. Onze tweewekelijkse nieuwsbrief ‘Het gaat nooit om de kijker’ is weer uit. medianieuws.substack.com/p/rechtse-ra...

The new US National Security Strategy, in its predictable and characteristic ugliness, is a good occasion for Europe to finally let go of the time-consuming transatlantic crisis management efforts and start focusing on a proper and proactive own strategy instead.

This will be remembered as the most pathetic moment in American history. What a needy fool.

Door regels te schrappen lost het probleem zich als vanzelf op... En dat soort amateurs zat (Madlener)/zit (Keijzer/Wiersma) dan aan de knoppen... Mede daarom is het een zegen dat de EU de derogatie opnieuw heeft afgewezen. Maar intussen is onze goodwill in Brussel wel naar de filistijnen.

Totaal verbijsterend dat dit in Nederland blijkbaar non-nieuws is...

Mocht je je nog afvragen waarom de formatie vastzit. VVD kan als gewoon doorgaan met uitvoering van haar partijprogramma. Wegsturen kan niet meer en moties kunnen naast zich neergelegd worden. Maatschappelijke organisatie een stem in de Haagse politiek? “Onwenselijk.” Geen woorden voor. (1/2)

Yesilgöz zou deemoedig het hoofd moeten buigen, maar doet alsof ze de koningin van Seba is

Verbijsterend dat zo'n talentloze querulant maar ongestraft haar nare gang kan blijven gaan...

The United States is now not only pro-Russia, it is also taking a stand against Europe, and has a clear objective to meddle in European affairs. The U.S. will support European patriotic parties (pro-Russia fascists). The U.S. with its current regime is an enemy of a free Europe.

Sobering.

Speaking of lingering issues, anybody seen a guy skulking around with $50k in a CAVA bag? It's been nearly 15 months! Today would be a good day for the FBI to reveal what happened to the taxpayers' money that Tom Homan apparently took in exchange for propsective official favors.

Trump has no real peace plan. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Russia just to make business deals with the Russians to enrich themselves and their friends in exchange for selling out Ukraine and NATO countries.

Trump has issued 1500+ pardons and counting…a who’s who of drug kingpins, crypto scammers, violent insurrectionists, terrorism financiers & corrupt politicians. In Trump’s oligarchy, the rich and powerful can pay their way to reside above the law.

What's that Kegsbreath? Soldiers shouldn't follow unlawful orders? Agreed.

I definitely need my own intro musicl...

We didn’t hit it twice We did hit it twice and that’s legal The Admiral did it We didn’t see them I’m in the fog of war and you’re not even though I am right where you are

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Hundreds of millions. Wow, that's a lot. That's more than have died in every single war combined in the entire world since 1900.

Good point from @swin24.bsky.social and team here: Trump and Hegseth suddenly refusing to take credit for the second strike, after they've spent weeks sadistically yukking it up over their killings, is a key tell: zeteo.com/p/trump-hegs...

Do it. Take these to another grand jury. Then a 2nd and a 3rd, until we get a breaking news story about how much you suck at this. And if you do manage to get a true bill, we can watch you lose again in pretrial motions. Do it! I live to watch you lose! www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

FACT: If you Invested $12,500 in Melania Trump's memecoin scheme 11 months ago at its peak, you now have $118. Congrats for getting scammed by the First Family.

Keep in mind: Trump put tariffs on Ukraine and exempted Russia

This tired, deeply-damaged man is so needy. He has to have references to him being president on his hat, on his shirt, and on a golf-framed placard next to his overcooked cheeseburger he's almost too-out-of-it to eat.
