Amerika slaví 250 let v čele s maligním narcistou, který se díky tamnímu systému neocitl ve vězení, ale neuvěřitelně zbohatl.

Hrůza. #DemocracyUnderThreat #Oligarchy #America250 #US

Een vuurwerkbom werd gisteravond gegooid in het D66-partijkantoor in Den Haag, waarbij ongeveer dertig aanwezige jongeren in de tuin schuilden en niemand gewond raakte, terwijl de politie een uur later een verdachte arresteerde en politieke partijen het incident als een gevaarlijke aanval op de democratie veroordelen. #DemocracyUnderThreat #PoliticalViolence #FreedomOfSpeech
