King Harald V dies; succession spotlights crown princess’s Epstein links
Gwen and I are sending our condolences to Queen Sonja and her family as Norway mourns the loss of King Harald V. Minnesotans are proud of our longstanding ties with Norway - and we wish Norwegians peace in this time of mourning.
You know they are affiliated with the Epstein Files, as sad as the death is.
Nice to hear something speak like this in 2026.
Well, your president threatens to invade it How about you convince some of your colleagues on either side of the aisle that it’s time to impeach this motherfucker He’s killed citizens in your state. 27 women accuse him of sexual assault he’s been found guilty in one instance, and was the world’s
We still love our Norwegian bachelor farmers. Thanks Tim.
I'm a Virginian born to 2 Austin MN natives. Paternal grandpa was 100% Norwegian so I'm 1/4. 25% of me is mourning! 🫢
King Harald V of Norway, the country’s first Norwegian-born monarch since the 14th century, died on Friday. He was 89. Read more about his life and legacy: nyti.ms/4y4GBRZ
sadly, not in the french way
There should be no such thing as a monarchy It should have stayed a 14th-century thing
Fatos da constituição norueguesa: - o monarca é chefe das forças armadas - só o monarca tem autoridade de iniciar e terminar guerras - o monarca precisa ser luterano - os liberais e social-democratas a favor do regime norueguês vão dizer que a Constituição não importa
I can only imagine the conversations in the Times building “What do we know about Scandinavia?” “Uhhh idk fucking Epstein” “Perfect, run it.” God damn, fuck you
He taught me it was OK to be snål
Wrong world leader in his 80s. This feels like we’re just being taunted.
On the day of King Harald's death I asked myself, Self, how many European countries have monarchs? Wikipedia gives a trick answer. But w/o peeking, name them!!
Sweden, Norway, Denmark, UK, Spain, Netherlands, Monaco, Luxembourg, San Marino, Liechtenstein and the Vatican
Followup question: how many are descendants of Queen Victoria?
This one went to my grandmother’s cousins state funeral when he died. Because he was a national speed skating hero. That’s the level of monarch you’re looking for in an ideal world
12, 11 if you don’t count the Vatican. I had no clue. I googled it. Rip King Harold
Not all countries with monarchs are states so that is tricky. Then not all states with hereditary heads of states have monarchs. And there is one head of state who is not a hereditary monarch of hos own state but us a non-hereditary "monarch" of another state. And there is one monarch who is elected
Does The Pope count as a monarch?
most devastating king harald of norway death since stamford bridge 1066
Yet again this week, not the octogenarian I had in mind.
The odd stat of the first Norwegian king born in Norway since the 14th century. Now off down a rabbit hole
No disrespect, but I thought at first that this was Werner Herzog dressed in a uniform for some reason.
