Dutch King Willem Alexander has sworn in the first right-wing Dutch Government, led by Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party. Parting globalist Prime Minister Mark Rutte, failing upwards to become NATO Secretary-General, turned the Keys of the Torentje (“Little Tower”) in The Hague to Prime Minister Dick Schoof.
Na aankomst op het Binnenhof volgde de ondertekening van de protocollaire overdracht en ontving ik van mijn voorganger Mark Rutte de voorzittershamer van de ministerraad. Hiermee is de politieke leiding van het ministerie van Algemene Zaken officieel overgedragen.#kabinetSchoof… pic.twitter.com/83JD5t7One

“We are making history today!” Wilders wrote.
Geert Wilders has been under police protection for 20 years since a crazed Islamist slaughtered Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh, great-grandson of the brother of painter Vincent van Gogh, on his bicycle in Amsterdam in 2004. He pinned a note to his van Gogh’s body with a knife, threatening Wilders and fellow Islam critic Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Ayaan Hirsi Ali eventually left the Netherlands for the United States.
It took over half a year to negotiate the right-wing coalition after Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party won the largest share of the vote in November. The RINO People’s Party refused to accept Wilders as Prime Minister, so Wilders stepped back for the sake of his country and tapped independent Dick Schoof, a former Dutch chief spook, to lead the government.
The cabinet was sworn in by King Willem Alexander today at 10 am local time in Ten Bosch house in The Hague.
