I remember a time when the world was up in arms because the Houthis were seizing tankers. The silence is deafening now.

Goddam why does 1918 go so hard

What a story.

An earlier version of the NSS specifically said that the US should try to pry Italy, Austria, Poland and Hungary away from the EU www.defenseone.com/policy/2025/...

De wreedheid waartoe we in dit land in staat zijn benoemd mij soms de adem. Uit dit eerste onderzoek van onze nieuwe generatie onderzoeksjournalisten blijkt dat dit 'vrijwel uitsluitend moeders van kleur' treft. Ombudsmannen herkennen het en hebben gemeenten aangesproken, toch gaat het door

The Russian dark fleet is going even darker! Read this new investigation of our international team of @ftm.eu @pointerkro-ncrv.bsky.social @tijd.be @vrtnws.be @recherche.ndr.de SZ and WDR www.ftm.eu/articles/swi...

I've waited nearly ten years to tell this story: In 2016, I developed a source in Iranian intelligence named Mohammad Hossein Tajik. He told me he came from a politically connected family. That he had led Iran's cyber army. And that he had secretly worked for the CIA. 🧵

Kleine maar schokkende scoop: Marit de Roij, ambtenaar BZ, die geen kans naliet om haar liefde en steun voor genocidaal Israël uit te dragen en collega's die zich wél uitspraken tegen de genocide te shamen. Haar nieuwe job vanaf de zomer 2026: landenmedewerker Israël op Buitenlandse Zaken. 🤡🎪

Nightmare blunt rotation.

I'll be attending #gijc25 in Kuala Lumpur this year. In case anybody wants to meet and discuss investigative journalism, pitching to Al Jazeera or anything related (or just say 'hi'), hit me up on Signal: onray.96

To see what happened, watch our investigation '36 Days in July', which features audio by Hassina ordering to shoot unarmed protesters. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt2-...

JUST ONE SMALL PROBLEM, SELL THE HOUSES TO WHO RODERICK? x.com/nporadio1/st...

"Uit Nederland is uitgeverij De Blauwe Tijger vertegenwoordigd, specialist in complotdenken." Oh, dezelfde Blauwe Tijger waarvan de oprichter - Tom Zwitser - op de emaillijst van Anders Breivik stond? Wow, wat een toeval.

Well well well!

Our @ajiunit.com investigation into Myanmar’s civil war is online. It exposes abuses on the battlefield and beyond aje.io/junta

On the “defeat” of the far right in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 The total number of far-right seats in the Tweede Kamer: 2021: 28 2023: 41 2025: 42 👈 And I don’t even count BBB here, which has radicalized significantly in the last year.

Twee walgelijke racistische losers hebben maandenlang, met instemming van hun politieke baas, in hun zolderkamer, met schuim op de mond, anti-Timmermans- en nazi-propaganda gefabriceerd en verspreid. Zonder enige consequentie. De PVV krijgt 25 zetels en Timmermans vertrekt. Dit is Nederland.

Oh shit rip Don Ceder

Lol, NY Times noemt D66 'center left'.

Letterlijk een exit poll.

Bari Weiss taking the German meaning of her last name a bit too seriously.

Hey maar er is ook goed nieuws, want huisjesmelker Wybren van Haga haalt weer geen zetel. Het zijn de kleine dingen die soms een beetje troost geven.

As a scholar I rarely offer electoral guidance. But today I do: DO NOT USE AI CHATBOTS AS YOUR VOTE ADVICE APPLICATION AHEAD OF (THE DUTCH) ELECTIONS Full of errors, bias and lack of transparency. @ernesto-deleon.com @favstats.eu @theoaraujo.bsky.social and🙋unpack why algosoc.org/results/1-in...

Timmermans VS Wilders:

Zo blij dat er geen applaus is bij het NOS-debat. Altijd zo storend.

I think the proliferation of online betting apps and ads for them is a danger to society and requires much tighter regulation

Big Yordi vibes van Faber. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnaV...

The US has been executing people with impunity, alleging they are drug smugglers. Now this. Honestly, from a human rights perspective this should raise some questions about the 2026 World Cup, right? Right?

In een gezonde democratie zouden deze verkiezingen draaien om de staat van onze rechtsstaat, niet om migratie.

Het zou vandaag en tijdens de rest van de zo goed als nergens anders over moeten gaan.

Deze beeldtaal is buitengewoon schadelijk. Ze wekt de indruk dat Nederland van alle kanten wordt bestookt door migranten, versterkt de obsessie met migratie als hét probleem van onze tijd en legitimeert daarmee de zogenaamde ‘anti-immigratieprotesten’.

Also, hou op met debatten met publiek. Dat applaus voor elke scheet is zo kut.

‘remigratie’ is het logische complement van ‘omvolking’. Beide klinken onschuldig als je de ideologische achtergrond niet kent, maar zijn in wezen diep racistisch.

Chiitan has a dream. I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past. I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination. Until then, let's all support each other🤍

"For months, the Russian army has secretly recruited hundreds, if not thousands, of jobless migrant workers in Qatar to fight on the frontline against Ukraine." josimarfootball.com/2025/09/25/t...

A great and worrying data viz. I've stayed far away from using TikTok, and everything I read about it makes me happy about that decision.

Horrific reporting from the AP on the Myanmar families watching their kids starve to death from Trump and Musk’s aid cuts apnews.com/article/myan...

Wát een verhaal. Zeer sterk en belangrijk onderzoek van collega's Lineke Nieber, Romy van der Poel en @hannekechin.bsky.social: www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

You work hard as a journalist. You lead with empathy, and you sweat details. You operate in good faith. You believe in honesty and truth. You get yelled at by the president of the United States. You worry that you'll get laid off. Again and again. And then you see this. www.wsj.com/business/med...

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

Oh, man. After reading the article, what it actually says is that an historian did a lot of archival work and spatial research to determine the site of a killing and then the family of the likely perpetrator stepped forward with photographs to confirm identity. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Breaking: Dutch court rules that Meta needs to offer chronological/ non algorithmic feed as clear and stable option (to Dutch users). Changes must be implemented in two weeks. 100,000 euro fine per day if non compliant. Case brought fwd by @bitsoffreedom.bsky.social nos.nl/l/2584891

To get an idea of how the insanity of this: If one million dollar was equal to 1 meter, Musk's wealth would be 500 kilometer.

Meer bewijs dat je uiterst-rechtse politici geen podium moet geven. Interviews zijn gebaseerd op een “good faith effort” en uiterst-rechtse politici zijn “bad faith actors”. De Vos liegt bij bijna ieder antwoord, primair door gaslighting en door naief te doen.

Bruh.
