Wilders, gekozen “door mensen wier naam we niet kennen”, (?!) zegt het volk te representeren. Zodra een dwarsdoorsnede van het volk met plannen komt, maakt hij ze verdacht.

Trump’s tariffs achieved one thing: higher prices for American citizens.
Now also for foreign visitors to U.S. national parks with $100 up to 300%
Good news: the rest of the world’s national parks aren’t run like this and tourists are more welcome without discrimination.

The EU drafted its own peace proposal and guess what emerged in the meantime?
Trump’s 28-point plan appears to be translated straight from Russian.
Fully written by Moscow.
Fascinating how easily Trump adopts it.
Are the rumors true that Russia has leverage over Trump?

The 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine, sprung on Europe by the US and Russia, reads like a Russian dictate for Ukraine’s surrender.
What kind of “leadership” gives Russia a free lunch and calls it a peace plan?
Cut support unless Ukraine accepts surrender.
Is that what a friend does?

Keep It Simple, Stupid:
1 Point peace plan:
• RUSSIA ENDS THE INVASION AND FULLY WITHDRAW FROM UKRAINE, INCLUDING OCCUPIED CRIMEA.
(Only then is anything worth negotiating.)

Trump, who never spent a day in uniform, drops Russia’s wish list as a “peace plan,” tells UKRAINE to give everything to the aggressor, and then claims they’re “not grateful.”
The absurdity is staggering
America, after 9/11 Europe stood with you out of values, not transactions
Stand with Ukraine.

A Dutch TV show just RESTORED the REMOVED PANELS honoring Black WWII soldiers.
The Trump-era ABMC said stories of Black troops fighting both Nazis and American racism “don’t fit the mission.”

Global warming is fueling more and bigger wildfires.
From Canada to California and globally, climate change now drives most of the burn area.
And yes: even at #COP30 a pretty wild fire broke out.
When do we carry fossil fuels to grave before it’s the other way around?

NL en Colombia nemen het voortouw voor top om fossiel af te bouwen, meldt Hermans. BBB not amused.

Plan Trump about Ukraine to give everything away to aggressor Putin shows he is in the pocket of his so-called friend.
Meanwhile, the most deaths of civilians in one strike with a cruise missile since the whole war in an apartments building.

The Netherlands hosts one of America’s most sacred WWII sites: the Margraten cemetery, where 8,000 U.S. soldiers are buried.
Yet the tribute to the Black troops who dug the graves has been removed, quietly, 80 years later, erasing their place in history
