Barack Obama at his last press briefing with reporters, 2017: "I have enjoyed working with all of you. That does not, of course, mean that I've enjoyed every story that you have filed, but that's the point of this relationship. You're not supposed to be sycophants. You're supposed to be skeptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions. You're not supposed to be complimentary, but you're supposed to cast a critical eye on folks who hold enormous power."

Ik reis heel veel voor theater. Blijkbaar begrijpen sommige mensen dat niet, en leidt dat tot populistische, domme opmerkingen. Daarom breng ik van nu af graag verslag uit van elke reis en de resultaten. Zo kunnen jullie alles hier perfect volgen. #graaggedaan

Gouverneur De Caluwé wordt met veel lof uitgezwaaid, van de afscheidnemers niets dan goeds. Ik zal hem nooit vergeten als - wanneer de microfoons uit stonden - het meest boertige, onbeschofte en misogyne Vlaams parlementslid dat ik daar ooit zag passeren. Fijn pensioen CDC.

Om een paar weken vakantie af te sluiten ging ik gisterenavond naar Wilco in het Openluchttheater in Deurne. Vlak voor me stonden twee blondines luid te tetteren. Mijn ‘Witte vrouwen naar achter!’, viel niet zo goed. Ik moet iets gemist hebben in mijn afwezigheid.

Is dat nu nog niet gedaan met die zotternijen op onze kosten 🙄. Waterstofmoleculen zijn te waardevol om ze compleet inefficiënt in te zetten voor transport

Andrew Tate is facing 42 charges, 19 of which are related to child pornography. Just remember all the podcasters who promoted this pedophile.

That went quickly from something that should be raised at the NATO Summit to ‘soccer isn’t our thing anyway’ 🤭 #Fifaworldcup2026 🇺🇸-🇧🇪 1-4

Rooting for the reinstatement of a birthright citizen after fighting with the Supreme Court to deport him. Weird.

We didn't win against Iran but at least it didn't cost us 300 billion USD. 🤷‍♂️

Hungarian Prime Minister-elect Peter Magyar: Ukraine is the victim of this war. Everyone knows that. No one should tell Ukraine under what conditions it must enter peace or sign a peace treaty. We cannot ask any country to give up its territory.
