Striking that Trump's minions are more critical of European countries for limited support, or sitting this war out, than they are of Putin for handing information to Iran

Nigel Farage Is a 'Political Fraud' Who Must Be Exposed as an 'NHS-Privatising Putin Apologist', Says TUC Leader β Byline Times bylinetimes.com/2025/02/05/n...
Trump has all the money, all the power, all the attention, and all the bombs in the world.
But were he to live for a thousand years, he'd never have this.
And it must eat him up.
This is going to hit American pocketbooks hard.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
The EU's role in #EnvironmentalProtection is one of the key areas that we at #SELFE are campaign on...
Let's #RejoinEU to help us create a cleaner, greener world!
If it starts to unravel and they realise that they are going to prison they will all turn of each other in a futile attempt to save themselves.
This sums it upβ¦
Trump says that people have βTrump derangement syndromeββ¦
But reality is that in this country many have βStarmer Derangement Syndromeβ
Perfectly encapsulated by this.
Starmers principled calm balanced approach is correct, itβs so obvious the left and right hate him for it.
So immigrants were βtaking our jobsββ¦
but now fewer immigrants means fewer jobs?
The math on their propaganda never works.
What the fuck is wrong with America. That his approval is anywhere near 40 is madness. He should be closer to 20.
Fuck sake the dems and others are not making the case that he is STEALING democracy from under their noses. In plain sight.
Something must be done.
Almost nobody in the media reported on the former Tory Government's sweeping power grab of the electoral commission. This week Labour have announced that they will reverse what Boris Johnson did and return the commission to independence.
Ofcourse Labour will get absolutely no credit for doing this
Obama is giving a truly inspirational eulogy at Jesse Jackson's celebration of life.
It's Shakespearean. Supreme. @barackobama.bsky.social
Trump now following Putinβs strategy of calling the war a mission. Nobody in the real world thinks the Russian attack on Ukraine isnβt a war and likewise for Iran. Delusional leaders justifying their wars of distraction from their corruption and exploitation of their own countries and citizens.
"Wow. A big drop" -- CNBC highlights that labor force participation is now the lowest it has been since in late 2021, before the covid vaccine was widely available
Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."
Thatβs the factual spine under the line βICE is unβAmerican and must be held accountable β¦ from senior admin leaders to the thugs in the streetsβ: the violence isnβt a glitch; itβs built into how the agency is being used.
'Record high': Staggering number of Republicans now support abolishing ICE

I thought for sure W Bush was the dumbest president, weβve ever had until this orange clown came along! But I will give W Bush credit. At least he acted presidential. This clown is a disgrace!

If I was @zackpolanski.bsky.social, I would be pointing out to the BBC that whatever model they use to justify giving Farage & his boot-lickers season tickets for every BBC show under the sun must surely now treat Green Party politicians in exactly the same way. Might even be one for the lawyers...
Karoline Leavitt, "President Trump had a feeling based on fact that Iran was going to strike the US"
The President - who according to Rep. Ted Lieu is accused of raping a child in the Epstein files - attacked Iran based on a 'feeling'
If itβs true Reform UKβs Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick told a business audience last night that renewable companies are "screwed" if Reform get in, it tells you everything about their readiness to inflict national self-harm in pursuit of ideological war on climate action.
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: No I do no-
CROCKETT: Okay
BREAKING: The Oversight Committee just voted to subpoena AG Pam Bondi over the handling of the Epstein Case. We demand accountability!

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
Many of the scientists Jeffrey Epstein courted were already well-established and well-funded. So why didnβt they all just say no? Science talked with three who did just that.
Hereβs how Epstein approached them, and why they refused to have anything to do with him: scim.ag/40rlyKN
"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)
