Op de dag dat Piet Lekkerkerk zich moest melden bij de politie n.a.v. een aangifte van Henk Vermeer, schoof het BBB-Tweede Kamerlid aan bij Café Kockelmann. De redactie zweeg over de aangifte en liet Vermeer desinformatie verspreiden over de overstromingen in Valencia. (1-11-2024) #HowDemocraciesDie

How Democracies Die?
Step 1: Elect a wannabe strongman.
Step 2: Let him rewrite reality.
Step 3: Watch institutions roll over.
Step 4: Call it “patriotism.”
Congrats, America. The autocrat isn’t at the gates. He’s on the ballot.

I spoke to a couple of people at the Wilson Center a few years ago while researching about climate security. All excellent experts on a range of crucial foreign policy issues. Willfully destroying such expertise is just madness and makes America small again #Trump #Musk #SelfCoup #HowDemocraciesDie
RIP Wilson Center. Musk staffers visited the center, and shortly after, its leadership staff and senior government employees were ousted. Dozens of federal employees, about a third of the center’s workforce, were also slated for administrative leave.

2. Vilify & Frame Political Opponents
3. Subdue & Silence Critical Voices like universities & media outlets
DJT is transitioning our Democracy into Authoritarianism right before our eyes.
