Thread: Musk's dishonesty is an order of magnitude worse than any fraud he claims, and used to hide real cuts. For example, he claimed that the Interior Department spent $1 billion on an internet survey. There did not happen. Completely made up. So what are they cutting?

Dutch parliament hides behind fiscal rules to reject ReArm Europe. Soon mainstream right will blame Wilders and pressure from far right. Don't be fooled. This is classic Dutch egocentric policy, at the core of VVD policy, rooted in widespread Dutch chauvinism and supported by many Dutch citizens
