I believe in democracy and accountability, and there's a lack of both lately.

Zo belangrijk dat jongeren dit doen. Vooral in deze tijden dat we bijna vergeten zijn wat fascisme de vorige keer heeft gedaan met ons land en de rest van de wereld.

von der Leyen and others in the EU parliament are in the pockets of big industry and big oil. They're conservatives, it's in their DNA to serve their capitalist overlords instead of the people. As long as they stay in power, things will only get worse.

⚡️ Putin weaponizing migration to destabilize Europe, Kyiv says.

"The Black Sea blockade is part of his plan," Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said, as Russian strikes against ports and vessels in Ukrainian waters are choking off Ukraine's agricultural exports.

Science informed political policy, which led to global cooperation, and decisive action to fix a problem affecting all of us.

Don't let anyone convince you that global problems cannot be fixed if we listen to the science and work together.

IT IS POSSIBLE

Looking forward to the new #SouthPark series. Last year was epic with the orange menace running naked through the desert in the 1st episode. Wonder how they'll top that this year.

There has to be a history of inbreeding in that family to explain this, just look at their grandparents for a start.

If hellenist had posted that on Bluesky, there would be no community notes needed because the post would have been removed and the account restricted. But on X(crement), this stays up. Why decent people are still on that site.... don't get it.

Every day more #ruSSianWarCrimes, and every day Ukraine's allies are complicit with their inaction. ruSSia could have been stopped years ago if only our leaders had a spine.
🚨 BREAKING: A Russian drone strike targeted a passenger bus in the Dnipropetrovsk region, killing five people at the scene and injuring at least seven others, local authorities reported.

If you want to waste your time hearing someone make empty promises as per usual, be sure to tune in to von der Leyen's meaningless bla bla
September 16, 2026 at 9:40 AM
The proof for this has been around for decades but you did fuck-all about it all this time. Why should we believe things will be any different now? All you do is bla bla bla, never any useful climate action.
Last summer proved we need to step up dramatically our climate preparedness. Europe is warming at double the global rate.

This is why we will present a European Heatwave Plan.

For better early warning, health preparedness, and taking care of our most vulnerable.

You should have done this years ago when you already knew the harmful effects.
We do not have to accept big tech's harmful features for our children.

Tomorrow, we are proposing the KIDS ACT. For each age, a tailored protection level on online platforms.

And we will present a Digital Fairness Act - addressing online harms for all, not only minors.

Funny how you call it a 'union' when the EU is so divided. It's going nowhere fast under the useless leadership of von der Leyen. She's in the pocket of big industry as are so many at the top. The EU needs to clean house and elect people with the EU's best interests in mind, not big industry's.
Next year we will celebrate 70 years of our Union.

We will mark it by launching a new Congress of Europe.

Together, let’s shape a vision to inspire a new generation of Europeans.

As per usual, the EU under von der Leyen is pretty much useless. She needs to go, all the conservatives in EU parliament need to go. They are all fascism enablers.
⚡️EU unveils new NATO-like mechanism against Russian hybrid threat, offers little new for Ukraine.

The new mechanism will include a "counter-hybrid playbook" and "a mechanism to flank NATO's Article 4" against incidents which "fall below armed aggression but clearly threaten our security".
