Clearly, the European People’s Party does not know how ships work.

This photograph of a cross on fricking wheels (!!!), brought to the Charlie Kirk memorial, is the perfect symbol of how modern American political Christianity has become a showbizz that has very little to do with actual Christianity.

Gekke vraag misschien, maar sinds wanneer is de Tweede Kamer een Amerikaanse vazalstaat geworden? Los van de verwerpelijke ideeën die extreemrechts Den Haag uitspuugt, lijkt het ook alsof het geen eigen ideeën meer heeft, tenzij die worden ingefluisterd door de Big Boss in Washington D.C.

If German and French reforms will not be Piketty-style reforms - i.e. less taxes on labour and more taxes on lazy capital - it will *not* be progressive, it will *not* stop inflation, and it *will* push people towards populism.

This is what European humiliation looks like.

On June 20 (World #RefugeeDay), Catholic bishops in San Diego will stand in silent witness at federal court as migrants face removal. Their presence won’t stop deportations - but in a country where the President is behaving like a feudal King, religion seems one of the few moral compasses left.

Dit zou ook in Maastricht kunnen, maar de Gemeente is - as we speak - honderden nieuwe parkeerplaatsen aan het bouwen in het Centrum. Waarom deze gemeente ons de jaren 70 in wil trekken blijft onduidelijk voor mij. #Autoluw

Exactly 81 years ago, the Stalinist regime launched a genocide against the Tartars of Crimea. Today, more than ever, we cannot underestimate that the risk of genocides. Not in Europe, not in the Middle East, not anywhere.

Don’t fall for Orbán’s scandalous behavior. His regime has ignored the Court’s values for years. More than this, he has inpoverished Hungarians to the bone. Every circus act of this man is just an attempt to shift the attention, away from his disastrous economic policies to another diplomatic riot.
