Kennelijk zijn de media er nog helemaal niet aan toe om verder te kijken dan t riedeltje wat de hele tijd opnieuw rondgepompt wordt.
Als ik de media mag geloven rijden we in t hele land gewoon verder en tanken we waar mogelijk in België of Duitsland.
Ik geloof er geen klap van voor wat betreft bepaalde groepen.

North Korea conducts engine test for long-range missile
North Korea reports that Kim Jong Un watched a test of an upgraded solid-fuel engine for missiles that can reach the U.S. mainland. State media say the test boosts the country’s strategic strike capability. Experts say the claim may be exaggerated because key data is missing.

In een week tijd is het virusniveau van ongeveer 18 naar ongeveer 29 gegaan.
Er zitten 6 nieuwe dagen in de data: 15 t/m 20 mei, waarbij op de laatste dag na de cijfers op tenminste 75% van de meetstations gebaseerd zijn.

Trump's latest war may end with the United States and its allies
(or, rather, countries that used to be allies)
worse off than when the war started.
His feckless and irresponsible secretary of defense acknowledged on Tuesday that Iran retains the ability to launch missiles and drones.
(Pete Kegsbreath is mystified that the MAGA base, which was told Trump opposed regime-change wars, is upset.)
He also insisted regime change has already occurred, a sign of h…

Trump Is Serious About Accepting a Humiliating Defeat
The disastrous war could end in a geopolitical nightmare.
