Walgelijke politiek. Met het uitlokken van een proefproces wordt politieke verantwoordelijkheid bij de rechter gelegd. Wetend dat de rechter ophoging niet toestaat kunnen populisten rechter als schuldige aanwijzen.

The White House website has updated it's Major Events Timeline to include some extremely political content attacking Democrats. Every structure, symbol, and system has to be debased to serve the MAGA-agenda.

17,8 miljoen m2 potentiële woonruimte staat leeg. Dat komt neer op 200.000 appartementen. Daar kunnen 377.000 mensen wonen.

Als rechts hun kiezers eens serieus zouden nemen, dan zouden ze dit verhaal moeten vertellen, in plaats van migranten de schuld te geven.

Weer dat gezwets over die nationale asielwetgeving! Europa wordt van alle kanten bedreigd: door Rusland, door Europese autocraten, door China dat enorm haar macht aan het projecteren is op de rest van de wereld en ons nu in geo-economisch opzicht in de tang heeft en door de Trumpiaanse boevenbende.

Ik mis de visie op de lange termijn. Waar moeten we naartoe met het land? Wat is onze positie in deze onrustige wereld? Hoe gaan we om met de klimaatverandering.

'BBC has published research into audience use and perceptions of AI assistants for News. This shows that many people trust AI assistants to be accurate - with just over a third of UK adults saying that they trust AI to produce accurate summaries, rising to almost half for people under-35.'

There is absolutely nothing he could say or do that would get 67 Senators to remove him. NOTHING.

A thing I wonder about (and I don’t want to sound naive asking it but I mean it genuinely): is there any red line for any Republican lawmakers for Trump, currently? Like is there anything he could do, that he realistically might, that would get them to, say, vote to impeach and remove?

Klimaat geen verkiezingsthema, kan jongeren machteloos laten voelen

De omvang van de klimaatproblematiek verlamt jongeren en maakt hen somber, concludeerden onderzoekers. Helemaal nu andere thema's het klimaat verdringen.
