@waarneming.nl ik probeer een waarneming van een aziatische hoornaar door te geven maar aldus uw meldingssysteem werd het als "ladybird spider" herkent. Daar gaat iets mis want het was een zwart gele/oranje wesp en geen spin met rood en wit.

Het is bekend we mogen in Nederland 29 oktober weer naar de stembus. Vrije verkiezingen als fundament van de democratische rechtstaat. Maar hoe vrij van buitenlandse invloeden is onze democratie?

What is it that makes protests in the US seem to escalate this quickly and fervently throughout history? Why is the National Guard deployed in the ICE Protests?

The Dutch government fell after #Wilders pulled the plug because "there is no guarantee, that his laws on asylumn will pass in the Tweede Kamer (House of Commons)".
So boiling it down - because Wilders is not allowed to dictate the general vote he is pulling out

In Poland the rightwing candidate won the elections. It was a very narrow result with 1.7% difference. Unfortunately it looks like Poland will be heading for a anti-EU course rather than unity and cooperation in a time where many threaten peace.

Should we see the new #tariff announcement by #Trump as an intention to conquer #France as well? Champagne comes from the #Champagne region in France - so if he wants champagne to be produced in the US, he needs to conquer the Champagne region......otherwise it is "sparkling wine"

Can someone explain to me what #Trump means with "E.U. Represented countries". Does he mean Member States or including those who have an agreement with the EU? Or just any country outside of the US?

A bit late, but did I hear #Vance say "Putin invaded Ukraine" (1:14). I thought that #Trump and the #US said it was #Ukraine that invaded #Russia.

In the US #Trump is destroying further education, in the Netherlands the #PVV government is cutting funding for academic education. Leading to overworked, underfunded and uncertain academic jobs.
Almost as if some leaders do not wish people to be educated and potentially disagree with them.
Almost as if some leaders do not wish people to be educated and potentially disagree with them.
People with doctorates are the most liberal and progressive. The entire mission of destroying academia is to eliminate entire voting demographics. They explicitly spell this out.
Shutting down PhD programs isn't an accident, it's the goal.
