Travel update!
Berlin airport strike -> rebooked to travel to Leuven via train.
Booked ICE train (with reserved seat) to Köln was cancelled.
Follow on ICE train to Köln inevitably very busy; I’d allowed up to an hour for the connection, so it was *theoretically* possible to catch still pick it up… except that this train is now also late, as well as packed 🤦
Will get there, eventually! 💪🏻

@andypiper these kinds of adventures make me curious whether there is at least one railway company in Europe that doesn't do strikes *and* doesn't treat the schedule as a suggestion. And has routes all throughout the EU.

@andypiper Always try to get a seat reservation if you can! People that never take trains never think of getting seat reservations and then complain about having to stand 😅

@graves501 we had reservations, but the train with the reservations on it was cancelled, and there was no way to “migrate” them to the following service! And we will miss the connection that has the next set of seat reservations. Cycle continues.

Il presidente degli Stati Uniti ha invitato lo speaker della Camera, Mike Johnson, a rivelare le condizioni di salute di Dunn, che ha annunciato il suo ritiro dalla Camera. Lo speaker, visibilmente imbarazzato, ha provato a fermarlo, dicendo: "Questa non è un'informazione pubblica", per poi aggiungere che Dunn “ha avuto una nuova possibilità di vita” e che Trump lo ha fatto operare all'ospedale militare Walter Reed. Il deputato avrebbe poi promesso a Johnson di votare "per lui e per Trump fino a quando vivrò".
Non contento, Trump ha parlato anche del capo di gabinetto Susie Wiles, che soffre di un tumore al seno: “Voglio dire che la prognosi è eccellente, più che eccellente”, ha detto.
