Premier Rob Jetten belt met president Zelenskyy van Oekraïne YouTube video by Minister-president Rob Jetten

Morgen is het vier jaar geleden dat Rusland de grootschalige invasie van Oekraïne begon. Oekraïne strijdt dagelijks voor vrijheid. En de strijd in Oekraïne gaat over de veiligheid van heel Europa.

It’s not leadership anymore it’s a circus, and everyone’s fighting for center ring.

In Major Breakthrough, Volkswagen Auto Workers Reach Tentative Deal Volkswagen had dangled a treat: a ratification bonus of $4,000, sweetened by $1,500 if a first contract at its assembly plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, was approved by Halloween 2025. But auto worker...

VW workers have voted by 96% to ratify their first union contract, @lfelizleon.bsky.social reports. Read his piece this month on the deal, which comes with a 20% wage increase (equal to around a $7 wage bump for production workers) over the 4-year contract labornotes.org/2026/02/majo... 1/2

Howard Lutnick misled the American people about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein because he didn't want to admit he continued interacting with Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of soliciting a minor.
 
It's a disgrace. Lutnick needs to resign as Secretary of Commerce.

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

State legislature: cities have to plan for housing growth but we will let them decide where it goes.

Local gov’t: ok we will rezone some land that we know will never actually get redeveloped.

State: alright we will directly preempt your zoning.

Local: why are you taking away our local control???

Amy and I realize IVF isn’t a topic many people discuss publicly, let alone when you’re running for U.S. Senate. But our story of infertility is just one among many.

We know we aren’t the only people struggling with this. And we don’t want anyone else to feel alone in it either.

ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

You can still find us elsewhere: Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, and of course, at mediamatters.org, where we are still full speed ahead calling out right-wing media misinformation.

The IVF clinic in New England wanted a $500 non-refundable fee to schedule a 15-minute Zoom call 6 months later.

Amy emailed the clinic in Norway on a Monday. We had an hour-long intake that Thursday. And when we asked how much we owed, they looked at us genuinely puzzled.
