OPINION by Ja’han Jones:
“The Trump administration’s bigoted assault on historical accuracy — and in particular, history involving Black people — has become an international embarrassment. Some Dutch officials are making it clear they want no part in such a crusade.”

Mensen als Angela de Jong denken te weten wat alle PVV-stemmers vinden, je kiest in Nederland voor een partij, niet voor een coalitie, aannames wat kiezers wel of niet willen op dat vlak is speculatie en irrelevant. Het gaat erom wat een partij voor haar kiezers kan realiseren, samen met anderen.
Net mijn abonnement @brabantsdagblad.bsky.social opgezegd.
Het platte, botte, onversneden domme populisme van #AngeladeJong (in een krant waar analyse en duiding toch al
met een microscoop gezocht moeten worden) is de spreekwoordelijke druppel.
Dan maar geen lokaal nieuws meer.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

SNAP embarrassed him. So now he's against SNAP. SNAP is now the James Comey of government assistance programs.
President Trump criticized the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) during a Fox News interview tonight, saying people "get it automatically now so the number is many times what it should be, it's disgraceful."
Trump says "we can reform" SNAP
"SNAP is supposed to be if you are down and out," Trump said on Fox News this evening.

Dems Reward the Hostage-Taker
Perhaps ending the shutdown was the responsible thing to do. But by caving, Democrats risk legitimizing Trump’s maximum-pain shutdown tactics.
