JD Vance is the PayPal mafia’s lapdog, and they plan to make him president

In verdediging van de muggenzifter (en waarom ik liever nauwkeurig ben dan populair)

Mijn eerste stuk voor Schuurpapier staat live. Over Amerika, vaccins en hoe een discussie op Bluesky me eraan herinnerde waarom precisie in journalistiek geen luxe is, maar noodzaak.

Trump could summarize his new "National" Security Strategy in a few sentences:
I am a loser.
I am cruel & mean.
I oppose democracy, freedom & civilization.
I hate Europe.
I have nothing against Russia & other dictatorships.
I understand nothing of foreign policy.

Vicepremier van Polen geeft technofascist Musk een klap op z’n bek:

Donald Trump winning the ‘FIFA Peace Prize’ is like when I didn’t win at school sports day so my mum made me a medal out of a yoghurt lid.

Boycotten deze shit, zou je denken, maar in 1936 gingen we ook gewoon.

A war criminal without a war It's just murder.

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Proving once again that nobody does corruption quite like FIFA

Where Did These Famous Hip Hop Screeches Come From? Two of the most famous screeches in music history are from House of Pain’s Jump Around and Cypress Hill’s Insane in the Brain — you likely heard both of them in your mind just reading the names of the songs. This short

Two of the most famous screeches in music history are from House of Pain’s Jump Around and Cypress Hill’s Insane in the Brain. Which one of them was sampled from a horse (and not Prince)? [kottke.org]

Vriendin van mij die bij AvroTros werkt:

“Al mijn collega’s van wie de mailadressen te vinden waren hebben haatmails gekregen”.

Wilders:

The new National Security Strategy is a propaganda document, designed to be widely read. It is also a performative suicide. Hard to think of another great power ever abdicating its influence so quickly and so publicly. It will be worth following the reactions around the world, not just in Europe.

1/ The new US National Security Strategy blames 'undemocratic' European governments for failing to make peace with Russia, takes a pro-Russian position on NATO, reflects white nationalist views on European demographics, and pledges overt support for far-right parties. ⬇️

Thomas L. Friedman:
“This is one of the most shameful episodes in American foreign policy, and the entire Republican Party is complicit in its perpetuation.”

There was a time when Americans would have laughed at this sycophancy. And that would have been all of American history before now.

I have rejected my own proposals for peace that I had Donald present to me.

Why Did Hundreds of Porsches in Russia Suddenly Shut Down? Imagine waking up Monday morning, coffee in hand (they drink that in Russia, right?), ready to fire up your beloved Porsche — only to discover it’s transformed into a very expensive lawn ornament. Tha...

Porsches door heel Rusland staan stil en starten niet meer. Oorzaak: het Vehicle Tracking System. Als dat geen satelliet-verbinding heeft, geeft de wagen geen sjoege meer. Waar je op dat moment ook staat.

Seriously, how many times does Russia need to reject all the peace plans and propositions before people in the US administration understand that they actually don't want peace?

'Gepikt' van Jacques Vriens op Facebook, deze column van Paul Bots in De Limburger.

🇩🇪🇺🇦🇺🇸 German General Christian Freuding says the most unsettling change in Europe isn’t happening on the battlefield but in Washington, - The Atlantic

The direct lines he once had to U.S. defense officials “day and night” have been “cut off—really cut off.”

Watching Americans find out that the guy with a drinking problem and white supremacist tattoos does bad things is wild.

Cut Trump out of all talks on Russia-Ukraine relations!
1. Trump overwhelmingly supports Putin's aggression, even voting for it in the UN.
2. Trump has given no military or financial aid to Ukraine.
3. Trump issued an ultimatum to Ukraine to effectively surrender by Nov 27. /1

While passenger planes fly across the skies over Europe, in Ukraine the skies are filled with Russian missiles and drones. One continent, but two different realities.

Mocht u denken dat dit ‘noodweer’ is, check even het verband tussen klimaatverandering, opwarmende oceanen en (hoeveelheden) neerslag.
En als n politicus begint over de KOSTEN VAN KLIMAATBELEID is t wellicht zinvol de kosten van klimaatschade - al jaren, nu, komende jaren - er tegenover te zetten?!

Why are war criminals asking for pardons 🤔 does that make everything normal again !!!
