In ‘n podcast bespreken Boekestijn en De Wijk wie zij het meest geschikt vinden als premier v NL.
Dit land heeft met Schoof (die niets te zeggen had) schade opgelopen binnen de EU.
Conclusie: het is Frans Timmermans die met zijn EU-ervaring en netwerk het snelst ons land weer uit het slop trekt.

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/

Yesilgöz heeft blijkbaar moeite met antifascistisch gedachtegoed. Bijzonder voor een liberaal. Ik heb vooral moeite met fascistisch gedachtegoed.

Yesilgöz zou antifa-motie niet weer steunen, maar 'wil dat gedachtegoed gewoon niet'
De afgelopen weken was er veel kritiek binnen en buiten de VVD op de motie. Die zou in strijd zijn met de liberale kernwaarden.

Hoe het ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken de leugenaars van BBB/Remarkable hun goddelijke gang liet gaan (en zo mogelijk de uitkomst van verkiezingen beïnvloedde).

Isn’t “stop the fascists” okay?
Stephen Miller: "They say they are trying to kill the fascists & stop the fascists. It's deliberate. President Trump is saying that we as a nation are not going to tolerate it anymore & the joint terrorism task force at the FBI is going to find these terrorists & we're going to put them behind bars"

Former Trump adviser John Bolton believes Putin achieved nearly all his goals at the summit, while Trump got only promises of more meetings. Bolton notes Putin avoided sanctions, faced no ceasefire demands, and that Trump appeared very tired after the talks.
