And actually astonishing when you think about it: The Trump administration's top officials are choosing to separate themselves from the public—more to the point: separate themselves from any visible protest—and live on military bases.

Could we have a new PM in The Netherlands before March 2026?

Dutch politicians love the Winter recess. And New Years tax season.

March 2026 marks municipal council elections and the national coalition could influence council votes.

Dutch 🇳🇱 election preliminary results Rob Jetten #D66 taking the lead by the thousands 15,165 so it’s early days.

Vote counting will close next week.
The process of forming a coalition government will start and a new formal government is to be expected in March 2026.

Ik voel plaatsvervangend voor Timmermans zo’n spijt dat ie uit EU naar hier is gekomen. Hij had daar nog zoveel zinvol werk kunnen doen, zijn kwaliteiten kunnen benutten.

George says @whateverhewants.bsky.social · 8h

While D66 and GroenLinks/PvdA primarily retain urban support.
PVV – broad national dominance
The PVV is by far the largest party in large parts of the South, Central, and North of the Netherlands, with
strong support in Limburg, Brabant, Flevoland & Overijssel. Less dominant in the Randstad cities.

A U.S. agent tried to flip Nicolás Maduro’s pilot — offering riches if he secretly flew Venezuela’s leader into U.S. custody.

The failed plan, which reads like a Cold War spy novel, shows how far the U.S. has gone to oust Maduro.

US sought to lure Nicolás Maduro’s pilot into betraying the Venezuelan leader

A federal agent had a daring plan: persuade Nicolas Maduro's chief pilot to surreptitiously divert the Venezuelan president’s plane to a place where U.S. authorities could nab the strongman.
