Congrats! If you have an hour to spare, watch this fascinating video of what might be happening within your wall. I found it to be very well made, funny and I somehow felt extremely zen afterwards.

This on the eve of the 80th anniversary of VE Day is especially shameful

Same scenario in the Netherlands.

The same is happening in the Netherlands. The right-wing party of Geert Wilders, the largest party in the coalition since 2023, is losing steadily in the polls. Centre-left and left-wing parties are gaining and would win if elections were held today.

I'm an European and I concur. Every day, hour, minute it's a bombardment of just too much everything, everywhere, in a state of persistent shock. Gobsmacked and - having strong ties to the US on a personal level - heartbroken. I try but can't imagine what it must be like for you.

The Netherlands is putting in practice Keir Starmer's advice to show the series in all schools.

Someone should investigate whether Kash Patel sold his $5M in Shein shares.
"Donald Trump’s pick for FBI director told senators he has no plans to divest his shares, which his financial disclosure form says were received in exchange for consulting services."

The goal is to bring awareness that $20 is a lot of money for some people, let alone $1000, and it means absolutely nothing to him.

There's always next year! Keep on fighting! (let me also add that I really feel for what you are going through, I have a long bond with the US, have family living there and I'm devastated to what is happening)

As the article notes, it will happen. I keep reminding friends that it's fairly easy for a population to impress their dissatisfaction with their government in an European country. The US is a continental country, the distance to travel to the capital enormous. Not like Istanbul with 16M or Berlin.

I know but April 19th was right there. This historical date makes slogans like "Fight the tyranny!" & "No Kings!" extra powerful.
comment in response to
post
😀 Yes, I do know that. But April 19th is the day the United States became an independent nation. Boggles the mind this date is not celebrated.

European here 🤚
I can't believe there are no major protests planned on Saturday April 19, the start date of the American revolution. Symbolism can be such a powerful force.

I'm curious though: how many cases were NOT blocked but, from Dems' / civil liberties advocacy groups' perspective, ought to have been?

The French Air Force did a little 🫣 and practiced landing on ice runways in Greenland 04/03. The purpose was to certify the aircraft Airbus A400M for landing on ice runways. A 🇫🇷🤝🇩🇰 collaboration initiated in '24 but I wonder if the 🇺🇸 tried to block it.

Having said this, where indeed is a Women's March caliber protest? We'll see on March 5, supposedly large protests expected. But as an European I'm dumbfounded they are not using Sat April 19 for a large protest as it's the start date of the American revolution. Symbolism can be a powerful force.

One aspect that IMO needs to be taken into account is that it's fairly easy for a population to impress their dissatisfaction to their government in an European country. The US is a continental country, the distance to travel to the capital enormous. Not like Istanbul with 16M or Berlin.
