Wij zullen ons constructief opstellen en samen met coalitie wetgeving mogelijk maken die dit land weer uit de crises halen.

Het landsbelang vereist deze ongebruikelijke stap.

Met vr. grt.,

In Chicago, a Nativity scene features a zip-tied baby Jesus and Roman centurions in "ICE" vests.

Near Boston, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus are absent from a Nativity scene, replaced with a sign reading "ICE was here."

It's all part of growing religious blowback to ICE. religionnews.com/2025/12/05/i...
ICE Nativity scenes: Churches reimagine Christmas story amid deportations
(RNS) — 'We know that Jesus was born into a Roman imperial occupation, and pretty much immediately becomes a refugee in Egypt, has to flee and faces political violence,' the Rev. Michael Woolf said.

This is creepy as fuck, perhaps the worst piece of shit I’ve seen plastered in gold. It looks like pleading children’s hands trying to caress that cunt Infantino’s bald head. Just fuck off and die FIFA .

What is happening here?
There are now 7 pro-Palestine political prisoners in the British prison system who are on hunger strikes, some for 1 month+. Their health is deteriorating rapidly, but there has been no state response or major media coverage.

We have to ⬆️ the pressure now!!!

OSU alumni with pictures of Lex Wexner with Jeffrey Epstein…are demanding answers and justice. Powerful people may try to bury it…but…when thousands show up shouting…nobody looks away. Truth doesn’t fade under pressure. They demand Wexner testify about allegations against Dr. Richard Strauss.

De VS van Trump/Vance laten Europa als 'n baksteen vallen. En passant mengen zij zich in de politieke aangelegenheden van Europese landen door extreemrechtse partijen te prijzen in hun strijd tegen omvolking.
Stuitend!

Nieuwe veiligheidsstrategie VS is 'frontale aanval op Europa'
"De groeiende invloed van patriottistische Europese partijen is een bron van groot optimisme." Het Witte Huis doelt daarmee op radicaalrechtse partijen zoals de AfD in Duitsland.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

I can't help but wonder . . . what has the notoriously corrupt FIFA already gotten (or hopes to get) in exchange for its silly award to flatter the perpetually needy Donald Trump?

Modern transportation is problematic. It is fundamentally unsustainable because it is energy-dependent, resource-intensive, and pollution-generating, thus creating economic, social, and environmental problems.

There is a suspect in custody for the pipe bomb left in D.C. just before the January 6th terrorist attack on the Capitol.

His motive? This man actually, legitimately believed the LIE that “the 2020 election was stolen” by Biden-Harris.

Shocker. The terrorist was a Republican voter and cult member.

#Trump pardoned Tim Leiweke — who his own DOJ indicted in July for rigging a public university’s arena bid—

It’s all a grift — Saudis to crypto to pardon seekers — everything gets turned into a revenue stream. With 1,500+ pardons already, clemency is a monetized market
