Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent 14h

"We find it very important to evolve from a situation of opacity to more transparency between the first and second world power in the field of AI." The American Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent, already proposed last week to establish a reporting mechanism between the US and China "for incidents, when something happens that affects national security." (translated)

VS en China zetten meldpunt op voor incidenten met AI na meerdere hacks: ‘Moet onder menselijke controle blijven’

Just a little more about that Corona fund, NextGenEU. Don't think that only the Netherlands is being kept on a string. Brussels is doing this everywhere. Spain had to make diesel more expensive at the insistence of Brussels. The Spanish parliament said no. Time and again, they could do it (Maybe because they had already received 77 billion?) Italy had to open its beach tents. Family businesses that have been there for generations are losing their place ten years earlier. Otherwise, no corona money. Belgium? Pension reform not strict enough for Brussels. Money withheld. Poland and Hungary only received their billions when a government was in place that was more to Brussels' liking. And us? Pension system overturned, CO2 tax cannot be reduced, gas tax cannot be reduced. The man who said yes to the Corona fund as finance minister in 2020 is now in Brussels as climate commissioner. Wopke Hoekstra. You couldn't make it up. The EU calls it a recovery fund. But it's blackmail, paid with our own money. And look who the designers of that time are? @cdavandaag @d66 @vvd.

Betaalt je moeder een keer de boodschappen? Dan wil de gemeente het jaartotaal weten. Tot 1.200 euro mag je in 2026 houden, daarboven wordt de hulp van je eigen familie gekort. Zo ver is het gekomen: de overheid rekent na of je familie niet te aardig voor je is. https://t.co/1Ea9EX0Ffa #overheid #financiën #gezinssteun

@MinPres Bijzonder. De vorige keer werd het budget ‘eenmalig’ opgehoogd ‘vanwege het virus’. Die stijging van 800 miljard is volgens de commisssie permanent en daar moet nu iets af. Dat is sluipenderwijs meer geld pakken. U kunt ook de hele ‘eenmalige ’ verhoging terugdraaien. #budget #financiën #overheid

Een extra dag werken en aan het einde van de maand nauwelijks meer geld overhouden. Het toeslagenstelsel straft mensen die extra uren maken. Jetten beloofde: ‘Het kan wél’, maar zijn kabinet doet er helemaal niets aan. Wie meer werkt, moet ook écht meer overhouden.👇🏻 #algemenebeschouwingen #toeslagen #werk #financiën
