Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Ik hoor op vrt radionws dat Riziv enkel naar parket kan stappen als zorgverleningsfraude niet wordt terugbetaald.
Dat kan toch niet kloppen ?
Fraude is toch altijd misdrijf ook als het terugbetaald wordt ?
En ambtenaren hebben altijd meldingsplicht bij misdrijven ?

Laat u gerust eens gaan, maar klaag dan nadien de burger niet aan die bezorgd is over de capaciteit v/d burgemeester om bij lokale rampen snel en adequaat te reageren? Zoiets vastleggen lijkt me niet onverenigbaar met de vrijheid van meningsuiting? @jogchumv.bsky.social www.hbvl.be/regio/limbur...

Holy wow, +3.5 ppm CO₂ last year, up from +2.4 ppm average the past decade, and +0.6 ppm in the 1960s.
It gets scarier the closer you look at it. All this is a stress test for the planet, and it's buckling.
Two big reasons for the massive increase: wildfires, and the ocean sinks are shutting down.

The Nobel Committee recognised her “struggle to achieve a just & peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”
In other words, exactly the opposite of what Trump is doing to the United States.
