In October 2023, Dutch doctor Menno Oosterhoff made a home visit to one of his patients. But unlike most of his work, his purpose that day was not to save a life, it was to end one. His patient was 17-year-old Milou Verhoof, a rape survivor who had endured profound psychological trauma. After years of unsuccessful treatment, she asked to be euthanised, and Mr Oosterhoff was the doctor who carried out her request. Now, years later, Milou's parents and Mr Oosterhoff are facing legal battles after 14 psychiatrists and doctors privately wrote to the Dutch public prosecutor asking to conduct...

The Maine Democrat Party successfully pressured Graham Platner to step down. Not because of his Nazi tattoo or his alleged physical abuse of a former (Republican) girlfriend. It’s not even because he mocked a teenager’s failed suicide attempt. Heck, it’s not even because he suggested women who don’t want to be raped should “take some responsibility for themselves” and not get too drunk.It was only after a second ex-girlfriend (this one left-wing) came forward to allege a break-in and rape that Democrats suddenly decided he was not fit to represent their party.The ousting says less about Platner, however, and more...

Graham Platner is about to drop out. It’s not a question of if, but when he has lost all significant support. The news broke in a bombshell story claiming he allegedly raped a woman, Jenny Racicot, in 2021. Politico had the report; once it was published, everyone distanced themselves. The disturbing part is that we saw this coming because The New York Times’ piece was a whitewash. When Lyndsey Fifield shared her allegations of domestic abuse, no one paid attention because she worked for Republicans, but Racicot, a committed liberal, is what caused the situation with Platner to unravel. Only...

At the time, Platner had already cancelled his upcoming events before the July 13 deadline to withdraw his nomination as the Democrat candidate for US Senate from Maine. His withdrawal from the race appeared imminent, so much so that Polymarket actually shut down the betting pool on it.Well, it has been 24 hours since then, and ... all is quiet on the Totenkopf Front. Platner has lost almost every endorser in the race, and the...

..... A German investigative journalist has urged her fellow countrymen to “listen to police officers” and their experiences and “act accordingly”. German broadsheet newspaper Die Welt reports the words of Liv von Boetticher who said she had spoken to police officers across Germany, “from all departments, of all ages, and from all federal states”. The journalist said she was prompted to come forwards with what she’d learnt after noticing speaking to her officers told a very different and unvarnished account of Germany after official interviews had finished and the cameras stopped rolling.

Tuesday, British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, the leader of the Restore Britain party (sorry to say, at this point I think it is more accurate to look at Nigel Farage and his Reform Party as controlled opposition rather than a real choice), released a report that probably ensures that British politics won't be quite the same. His 219-page "The Rape Gang Inquiry Report" unmasks the concerted effort by British officials to cover up the systematic rape of British girls in their early teens, if that, intimidate the girls into refusing to press charges, and protect the feral Pakistani gangs...
