Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

Levi noticed that during election night, the live stream of the official AfD YouTube channel played a techno version of “Erika”, the most popular marching song of the Wehrmacht. They want us to know!

Duizenden demonstranten op het Domplein in Utrecht. Ze zijn 'vóór solidariteit, vóór vluchtelingen'. 🗣️👏 "Say it loud, say it clear: refugees are welcome here!" De politie verwacht 5.000 deelnemers. Straks volgt een mars. #DeStraatOp #Utrecht

Wat kunnen we in de exit polls zien? Centrum-rechts (CDA, VVD, CU, SGP, 50PLUS) was nog nooit zo klein. De linkse partijen (inclusief D66) is het grootste blok. Radicaal rechts handhaaft zich.

This is the final 'poll of polls' before the Dutch elections. Three parties at the same level, and two more not much smaller. Given the high percentage of late deciders and voters in doubt, the outcome is still very much uncertain. 🧵
