Vandaag leerde ik dat Arnold Karskens een nieuw boek heeft.
Het heet 'Lekker Kontje' en gaat over Willem Koning, de directeur van omroep Onbehoorlijk Nederland die 'non-actief gezet na valse klachten over grensoverschrijdend gedrag."

Dit verhaal wordt als schattig en lief gebracht, maar ik vind het eerder creepy en not done om een account voor iemand te beginnen en daar zonder consent videos op te plaatsen van die persoon.

Ze wist van niets – maar nu wel: zo reageert Harriet op haar virale Instagramaccount
Wat begon als een lief gebaar voor zijn Britse vriendin, liep volledig uit de hand. Jeroen Bosch 29 maakte in het geheim een Instagramaccount om Harriet, die binnenkort naar Amsterdam verhuist, zich thuis te laten voelen in Nederland. Zonder dat ze ervan wist, vergaarde ze meer dan 140.000 volgers. Inmiddels weet ze het wl. En zo reageert Harriet.

Reuters reporting that some US military personnel in Qatar's Al-Udeid airbase have to leave the base by tonight.
Last year, a similar warning came ahead of an Iranian missile attack.
This could be an indication the US is expecting an Iranian attack (maybe in response to a planned US strike?)

They didn't do the redactions right, and a bunch of financial information and immigration fraud detail is viewable on the Epstein files if you just highlight the black bars, and copy and paste into a new doc.
