🇳🇱 After 5 months a right-wing government has finally been formed! 🇳🇱

During the first press conference Wilders announced he’ll be introducing the “toughest immigration policy the nation has ever seen”.

His party, the PVV, will govern with 3 other centrist and moderately right-wing parties.

They reached an agreement that included the abolishment of indefinite asylum permits will be abolished. Another big promise is that asylum seekers who have been rejected will be "deported as much as possible, including by force." Also, status holders will no longer be given priority in the allocation of social housing. Automatic family reunification will also be scrapped.

Furthermore, the government will “seek permission” from the European Commission to opt out from the European asylum and migration policy.

With regards to the farmers: the government pledges to “pull out all the stops" to change the European directives targeting farmers.

The coalition wants no forced shrinkage of livestock. Nor should there be any forced expropriation. However, they think there still should be “generous voluntary buyouts” and full commitment to innovation in agriculture.

Other measures include lowering taxes, building 100.000 new houses per year, making childcare effectively free and many more.

Of course, nothing in politics is ever perfect: For instance, we’ll continue to send support Ukraine and the government won’t deviate from the already established climate goals - but it is absolutely a huge step in the right direction.

Before COVID, I didn't think there were serious issues with the childhood vaccines, but now, like many, I've come to question that assumption.

This excellent article examines each one and identifies which are more likely to harm than help our children.

The DC Swamp is an eight-headed Hydra. Cut off one head and two more grow back. We can't just fire one-off corrupt officials, we need to shut the thing down. Mass firings & mass reorganization of the beast.

Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia Has Been Shot

Here's Fico in December 2023 calling the WHO Pandemic Treaty "nonsense invented by greedy pharma companies."

He also said, “One study after another confirms the scandalous consequences of mass vaccination with untested experimental vaccines.”

There is no other head of state in the world who has had the guts to say this publicly and so explicitly.

He also rejects funding for Ukraine. You can imagine that there are a lot of powerful people who would want him dead.

How to do climate scare mongering:
When it's cold, just report actual temp, like below 10 C in Baguio, below 20 C in QC last January 27. No "cold index" made by @dost_pagasa.
When it's hot, exaggerate by constructing a "heat index" which are +10 C, even +14 C over actual temp.

PETERSON: When people read the history of nazi Germany, they always think they’d be Schindler.

They never think they’d be the perpetrator. They think “I wouldn’t have done that.”

Did you watch people during the pandemic??? ☠️

Earth's known coal reserves are supposed to last 300-500yrs using today's mining technology. But geologists say there's 15 times more coal & this could last human society 5,000-7,000yrs. Coal, oil & gas are not running out. It's part of the climate hoax. https://t.co/56A7Ss0Cuz
