King Charles, "So this city, Washington, D.C. is the home of more Shakespeare folios than anywhere in the world. 82 copies are carefully preserved and shared at the Folger Library" "And at this time, when the search for peace in the world is more critical than ever, I can only turn to Shakespeare's genius to remind us of the plea for peace spoken by the Duke of Burgundy at the conclusion of Henry V" "My speech entreats that I may know why gentle peace should not bless us with her former qualities" "Thank you, Mr. President and Mrs. Trump, for your splendid dinner this evening, which, um, may I say, is a very considerable improvement on the Boston Tea Party" "So whether your cup contains tea, wine, Scotch whisky, bourbon, or even cola, uh, let us raise our glasses and voices as we toast, uh, the past, the present and the future" "Thank you, uh, of our two proud and allied nations, to the United States and the United Kingdom. God bless both our countries" "Thank you very much. Thank you, everybody"

An incredibly touching moment on board Orion as the Artemis II crew calls down an unnamed crater that they have observed on the Moon, asking to name it 'Carroll', after Carroll Wiseman, Commander Reid Wiseman's wife who tragically passed away in 2020. ❤️

Europa staat voor een duidelijke opgave: meer doen voor onze eigen veiligheid. De NAVO blijft daarbij de hoeksteen van onze veiligheid. In Brussel sprak ik met @SecGenNATO Mark Rutte over hoe Europa meer verantwoordelijkheid kan nemen binnen het bondgenootschap. 1/3

If you want to understand Mark Carney, you have to put aside all of your preconceived notions. He is not a heartless banker or a champagne socialist. He is not a bleeding-heart Liberal or a hard-nosed realist. He is not an environmentalist or an oil baron. He is not following the United States, Europe or China. He is not antisemitic or always supportive of Israel. He does not oppose international law or rely on it in all circumstances. Mark Carney can only be described as a pragmatic realist. Many people misinterpreted Mark Carney’s speech at Davos. When he spoke of removing the sign from the window, he was not just talking about the United States and Donald Trump (although that was the main context). He was talking about the world at large. He never said that only the United States breaks the rules when it suits that country. He said great powers do it - all of them. This refers not only to the United States’ trade policies, but also China’s trade policies and threats against Taiwan, as well as Russia’s energy policies, attack on Ukraine and threats against Eastern Europe. He may have even been referring to the United Nations itself. If you think about it that way, then Carney‘s recognition of a Palestinian State and response to today’s attack on Iran make more sense. He recognized Palestine not because he believed that it would be a successful state in its present form, but because he believed that failure to do so would leave Netanyahu to tighten a Gordian knot, where the allegations of apartheid that have been untrue to date might one day become true. That did not, however, mean that he opposes Israel or Zionism. Last summer he said any future Palestinian state needs to be Zionist! As we saw today, Carney continues to support Israel’s right to defend itself and he continues to view Iran as the main source of instability in the Middle East. It is Netanyahu‘s treatment of Palestinians with which he correctly disagrees. When Israel tries to take over the West Bank, it is wrong. When Iran surrounds Israel with terrorist proxies, it is also wrong. Carney has not said it, but I suspect he would agree that when the United Nations puts the Iranian regime on a human rights council and claims that attacking the country is what is causing instability, it is wrong. Carney is not trying to take sides. He is trying to take principled positions on specific topics that he believes will lead to real world results. That does not mean that Carney would have advised Trump and Netanyahu to attack Iran. Neither does it mean that he will send over Canadian resources. What it means is that the attack happened, he has analyzed the positives and negatives and he has decided that he is going to highlight the positives. I tend to take the same view. If an attack on the Iranian regime is inevitable, then I hope it succeeds. I hope that success leads to a world where the potential for war between Iran and Israel no longer exists. We can both take action based on the world as it is and hope that it results in the world that we want to see. I suppose that is where I disagree with what Carney said at Davos; it is not necessary to pick one or the other. I suspect if he had thought about it more, he might have phrased it differently himself. #cdnpoli

Ik was vandaag in een Albert Heijn waar een Turkse mevrouw haar boodschappen aan het afrekenen was. Ze had nog een vraag aan een medewerker van Albert Heijn, die ook Turks was. Ze communiceerden vervolgens gewoon met elkaar in het Turks. @albertheijn, mag dit? Ik moest meteen denken aan de woorden van @lidewij_devos, die zei: als Nederlanders een minderheid in hun eigen land worden, waar moeten mensen dan nog in integreren? @StephanvBaarle doet ook nog een oproep in het Turks om te gaan stemmen. Ik vind het ongelooflijk dat we dit in Nederland toestaan, vooral omdat @denknl bezig is met het uithollen van de Nederlandse samenleving.

Mona Keijzer has announced to the Telegraaf that she has decided to leave the BBB and will continue as an independent MP. This could prove fatal for the BBB, with the party seemingly in decline and many BBB'ers preferring her to the party leadership's choice of Vermeer.

Seems like this decision has ignited a possible civil war within the BBB: According to the Telegraaf, several prominent BBB'ers including Senator van Gasteren and outgoing State Secretary for Defence Tuinman are very upset about Keijzer being passed over in favour of Vermeer.

@geertwilderspvv u bent toch nu de grootste partij in nederland nu mvr Berkel D66 is verwijderd van de kieslijst. Zij had 40.000 voorkeursstemmen. Dus u heeft nu 20.000 stemmen meer als D66.

U.S. Ambassador to the Netherlands
I have seen a great deal of discussion about President Trump's statement regarding NATO participation in Afghanistan, and I want to make clear for our Dutch friends that I have seen no indication it was directed at the Netherlands. The United States recognizes and honors the Dutch heroes who gave their lives fighting shoulder to shoulder with American servicemembers in Afghanistan, following the United States 2001 invocation of Article 5 in response to the September 11 attacks. The United States values the Netherlands' steadfast commitment to NATO and its dedication to defending democracy and individual freedom as part of the coalition of the willing. We are proud to share that commitment.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Riveting, extraordinary and brutally honest speech by Mark Carney, Canada's prime minister. God, I wish we would have European leaders like this. Here's an excerpt: In 1978, the Czech dissident Václav Havel, later president, wrote an essay called “The Power of the Powerless,” and in it he asked a simple question: how did the communist system sustain itself? And his answer began with a greengrocer. Every morning, the shopkeeper places a sign in his window: “Workers of the world unite.” He doesn’t believe in it. No one does. But he places the sign anyway to avoid trouble, to signal compliance, to get along. And because every shopkeeper on every street does the same, the system persists — not through violence alone, but through the participation of ordinary people in rituals they privately know to be false. Havel called this living within a lie. The system’s power comes not from its truth, but from everyone’s willingness to perform as if it were true. And its fragility comes from the same source. When even one person stops performing, when the greengrocer removes his sign, the illusion begins to crack. Friends, it is time for companies and countries to take their signs down. For decades, countries like Canada prospered under what we called the rules-based international order. We join its institutions, we praised its principles, we benefited from its predictability. And because of that, we could pursue values-based foreign policies under its protection. We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false, that the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient, that trade rules were enforced asymmetrically, and we knew that international law applied with varied rigor, depending on the identity of the accused or the victim. This fiction was useful, and American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, open sea lanes, a stable financial system, collective security, and support for frameworks for resolving disputes. So we placed the sign in the window. We participated in the rituals, and we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality. This bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition. Read/listen in full: globalnews.ca/news/11620877/…
