Volgens @frankx.bsky.social hangt het antwoord op de vraag of JA21 straks wel of niet meedoet in een kabinet Jetten, mede af van hoe het CDA van Bontenbal daarin staat.
Dat mag zo zijn, voor mij is het een no go dat het anti-democratische JA21 straks meedoet. D66 heeft met de VVD al genoeg geslikt.

Don has been sounding the alarm about Schedule F, and was the first person I read warning about Project 2025.
We're heading toward the nightmare stage of this pretty fast, with the goal and hope of making the federal government operate like the veritable one-party rule of, say, Mississippi.

New, from me: by embracing unitary executive theory, the Supreme Court is moving towards making all public employees fireable at the will of the President.
This will not just hurt government competence, it will aid democratic backsliding. 🧵

At will? Whose will?
Removing independent agency heads is part of a broader assault on a nonpartisan government

Quite something to see the whole of the US watching as a single crime family betrays their national interest and robs them blind.

Those in power recognised that oppression is best maintained by keeping the masses illiterate, and those oppressed recognised that literacy is liberation.

Never forget that the airlines were instrumental in reducing the Covid isolation requirements and paid time off.
Why? It was hurting their profits.
They were about to lose money again due to the shutdown… so the Dems caved.
Medicaid & ACA will be gone to keep airlines happy.

JD Vance has always been the tech oligarchs’ plan for a long-term dictatorship. Trump is just the vessel to get their guy in place.

De kwestie van één-lid-partijen raakt direct aan de kern van transparantie en democratische legitimiteit.
Er zijn voorstellen om dit aan te pakken, zoals het verplicht stellen van minimaal drie leden en interne democratische organisatie als voorwaarde voor deelname aan verkiezingen.

De eindstand is dat het meest extreemrechtse kabinet sinds WOII niets voor elkaar heeft gekregen, behalve miljarden belastinggeld laten verdampen, het land onbestuurbaar gemaakt, racisme genormaliseerd en alle crises verder verdiept. En toch blijft het zetelaantal voor extreemrechts nagenoeg gelijk.

Trump... I think he's terminal and he knows it. All he does is setup his family to be comfortable and take revenge on everyone he feels he's been wronged by. That can be individuals or groups.
The people supporting him are just making sure they benefit as much as possible as well.

Aleksandr 'Putins Brain' Dugin wants Farage to be PM
Just to be clear - Dugin = ultra-nationalist fascist ideologue obsessed with shattering European unity & dragging the West into chaos.
In his book, from '97, he wrote "The UK should be cut off from Europe."
Patriots, Nigel is not your man.

Het is moeilijk wakker worden. Als PVV en D66 gelijk staan, de VVD redelijk op peil blijft, FvD groeit, Ja21 veel stemmen krijgt, dan is het ontwaken in een door en door verrechtst land. Daar kan geen promoRob tegenop.

Even voor de duidelijkheid de PVV is geen "partij" maar een autoritaire fascist met stromannen. Die meneer Wilders kan ook geen competente kabinetsleden leveren. Daar stem je dus zowieso niet op, zinloos. Gebruik je verstand alsjeblieft
