Statement

Let (νm)mN(\nu_m)_{m\in\mathbb{N}} be a sequence of probability measures on (R,B(R))(\mathbb{R},\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R})), where R\mathbb{R} is the set of real numbers, B(R)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}) is the Borel σ\sigma-algebra, and N\mathbb{N} is the set of natural numbers. Then there exist a probability space (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P) and a sequence (Xm)mN(X_m)_{m\in\mathbb{N}} of random variables on it that is independent and such that XmX_m has distribution νm\nu_m for every mm.

One may take Ω=(0,1)\Omega=(0,1), F={BB(R):B(0,1)}\mathcal{F}=\{B\in\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}):B\subseteq(0,1)\}, and PP the restriction to F\mathcal{F} of Lebesgue measure, as in Existence of Independent and Identically Distributed Sequences; taking all νm\nu_m equal to a fixed probability measure ν\nu recovers the statement of that theorem.
