’t Grootste risico is de gevaccineerde die, omdat hij maar “een klein beetje ziek” wordt, gewoon door blijft lopen.
Stelling die bewezen zal worden als er straks overal plaatsen zijn waar alleen ingeënten mogen komen om te eten, te feesten of te sporten.

“Wie in Nederland openlijk oproept tot geweld tegen Joden en zionisten én de moord op Charlie Kirk verheerlijkt, is geen artiest maar een haatprediker.”
BBB roept het kabinet op om Bob Vylan te weren uit Nederland. Kamervragen zijn namens de gehele fractie ingediend.👇🏼

A while ago, probably in 2017, I appeared on Tucker Carlson's Fox show to talk about God knows what. Afterwards a name I barely knew sent me a DM on twitter and told me I did a great job. It was Charlie Kirk, and that moment of kindness began a friendship that lasted until today.
Charlie was fascinated by ideas and always willing to learn and change his mind. Like me, he was skeptical of Donald Trump in 2016. Like me, he came to see President Trump as the only figure capable of moving American politics away from the globalism that had dominated for our entire lives. When others were right, he learned from them. When he was right--as he usually was--he was generous. With Charlie, the attitude was never, "I told you so." But: "welcome."
Charlie was one of the first people I called when I thought about running for senate in early 2021. I was interested but skeptical there was a pathway. We talked through everything, from the strategy to the fundraising to the grassroots of the movement he knew so well. He introduced me to some of the people who would run my campaign and also to Donald Trump Jr. "Like his dad, he's misunderstood. He's extremely smart, and very much on our wavelength." Don took a call from me because Charlie asked him too.
Long before I ever committed (even in my mind) to running, Charlie had me speak to his donors at a TPUSA event. He walked me around the room and introduced me. He gave me honest feedback on my remarks. He had no reason to do this, no expectation that I'd go anywhere. I was polling, at that point, well below 5 percent. He did it because we were friends, and because he was a good man.
When I became the VP nominee--something Charlie advocated for both in public and private--Charlie was there for me. I was so glad to be part of the president's team, but candidly surprised by the effect it had on our family. Our kids, especially our oldest, struggled with the attention and the constant presence of the protective detail. I felt this acute sense of guilt, that I had conscripted my kids into this life without getting their permission. And Charlie was constantly calling and texting, checking on our family and offering guidance and prayers. Some of our most successful events were organized not by the campaign, but by TPUSA. He wasn't just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists. And after every event, he would give me a big hug, tell me he was praying for me, and ask me what he could do. "You focus on Wisconsin," he'd tell me. "Arizona is in the bag." And it was.
Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him.
Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he'd encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.
Charlie had an uncanny ability to know when to push the envelope and when to be more conventional. I've seen people attack him for years for being wrong on this or that issue publicly, never realizing that privately he was working to broaden the scope of acceptable debate.
He was a great family man. I was talking to President Trump in the Oval Office today, and he said, "I know he was a very good friend of yours." I nodded silently, and President Trump observed that Charlie really loved his family. The president was right. Charlie was so proud of Erika and the two kids. He was so happy to be a father. And he felt such gratitude for having found a woman of God with whom he could build a family.
Charlie Kirk was a true friend. The kind of guy you could say something to and know it would always stay with him. I am on more than a few group chats with Charlie and people he introduced me to over the years. We celebrate weddings and babies, bust each other's chops, and mourn the loss of loved ones. We talk about politics and policy and sports and life. These group chats include people at the very highest level of our government. They trusted him, loved him, and knew he'd always have their backs. And because he was a true friend ,you could instinctively trust the people Charlie introduced you to. So much of the success we've had in this administration traces directly to Charlie's ability to organize and convene. He didn't just help us win in 2024, he helped us staff the entire government.
I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that's how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in.
God didn't answer those prayers, and that's OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I'll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly.
You ran a good race, my friend.
We've got it from here.
De PVV trapt vandaag in Venlo de verkiezingscampagne af die draait om ‘asiel, asiel en nog een keer asiel’.
@Geertwilderspvv: “Je kan geen krant lezen of geen televisieprogramma kijken of je ziet weer die ellende die in Nederland plaatsvindt. Mensen zijn dat zat”.
“Je verandert niets in een crisissituatie door de desinformatie-agenda van de hoofdverantwoordelijke over te nemen: dan ben je mede-uitvoerder van de strategie van #Hamas. Het #CDA trapt er blind in.” https://t.co/X9Rk4JHLDQ
“BBB en Henk Vermeer hebben vanaf dag één samen met mij gestreden voor verbeteringen in het pensioenstelsel en meer inspraak.”

Pensioenen lopen zes maanden na het "invaren" al gevaar. Deze grafiek van het pensioenfonds voor loodsen toont waarom de nieuwe pensioenwet een ramp is: ouderen mogen alleen nog beleggen in staatsschuld en dat maakt het nu al onmogelijk om de inflatie bij te houden. Dit pensioenfonds moet na een half jaar "invaren" uit de reserve putten om de pensioenen te kunnen betalen; zo slecht zijn de rendementen van de ouderen. En als de bodem van de reserve in zicht komt? Zie ook mijn waarschuwingen sinds 2021 in Wynia's Week en in website Me Judice tegen de dwang van DNB op de pensioenfondsen.
‘Dit is het moment om lidstaten van de EU nog verder leeg te zuigen,’ denken ze in Brussel. Roep dat #Rusland Nederland gaat aanvallen en de Nederlandse belastingbetalers geven je van schrik hun portemonnee.
Wanneer komt die #NEXIT nou, @geertwilderspvv?

Vooroordelen over ouder worden hebben grote gevolgen. SIRE wil dat met campagne 'Je bent nooit te oud om te leven' doorbreken door vijftigplussers te laten zien, die midden in het leven staan

Het zou heel wijs zijn als de @PvdA dit zou terugnemen. Er loopt wel eens wat mis in een partij, er wordt wel eens een fout gemaakt. Dan kun je, en moet je corrigeren.
En @DilanYesilgoz van de @VVD sluit de jodenhaters en antisemieten van @gl_pvda niet uit. Maar wel de PVV als grootste vriend van Israël. Wat een lafheid, wat een gebrek aan moreel besef, wat een opportunisme. Maak de VVD klein en de PVV groter dan groot!

Klaus Schwab und seine Frau sollen laut dem Wall Street Journal Gelder des Forums veruntreut haben – etwa um Massagen oder Luxus-Reisen zu finanzieren. Erst am Montag war Schwab zurückgetreten. https://t.co/ChcbYWQfKz
Al heel mijn volwassen leven, zeg maar sinds de krakersrellen in 1980, hoor ik over #woningnood. Dan denk je op een gegeven moment: óf het probleem is onoplosbaar óf het wordt bewust in stand gehouden.
@AKeppel Bekijk de hele lijst maar eens op Truth Social, @AKeppel, dan schrik je van de tarieven die concurrenten van de VS zelf in rekening brengen, waaronder de EU. Hypocriet geblaat in de Nederlandse media.
Het is bizar dat de Tweede Kamer de hele dag debatteert over lintjes, terwijl er zoveel échte problemen in Nederland zijn.
Toch wil @gideonvmeijeren er één ding over kwijt: het staat minister Faber vrij om wel of niet te tekenen voor de koninklijke onderscheiding. Dat is een ministeriële verantwoordelijkheid.
Chi ha paura del giudizio degli elettori, spesso si fa rassicurare dal giudizio dei tribunali.
A Parigi hanno condannato Marine Le Pen e vorrebbero escluderla dalla vita politica. Un brutto film che stiamo vedendo anche in altri Paesi come la Romania.
Quella contro @MLP_officiel è una dichiarazione di guerra da parte di Bruxelles, in un momento in cui le pulsioni belliche di Von der Leyen e Macron sono spaventose.
Non ci facciamo intimidire, non ci fermiamo: avanti tutta amica mia!
Dit is waar het allemaal om draait: Frankrijk, Engeland en Duitsland kunnen miljarden verdienen aan een oorlog met Rusland, die ver van hun bed wordt uitgevochten in Oekraïne.

‘Links’ zijn betekent tegenwoordig: voor censuur, voor dwang, voor het uitsluiten of verbieden van bepaalde politieke partijen, tegen vrijheid van meningsuiting, tegen vredesonderhandelingen.
Schiet mij maar lek.
