Watching the West defend the Middle East against Iran’s drones reveals a sickening double standard.
Ukrainians have endured years of Russian missiles and shaheds with heavily restricted strike capabilities and insufficient air defense.
Why the hesitation to defend Kyiv?

The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.
So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

Trump now blocking terror threat warnings because it makes him look bad.
“They don’t want anything getting out that says what they’re doing in Iran is raising the threat level at home.”

How an Oil Crisis Becomes an Everything Crisis
The 1973 oil embargo showed how a shock to energy supplies can unravel economies, upend politics and make fear a force as powerful as war itself.
The 1973 oil embargo triggered inflation, political turmoil and global upheaval. As the Iran war now threatens energy markets again, history shows how quickly an oil crisis can ripple into everyday life.

Congress voted down measures to restrict the war on Iran. Republicans backed it openly, while Democratic leaders complained only that Trump didn’t consult them first. In the end, both parties let the bombing continue while pretending to debate it.

How democratic is the UK?
The UK has a crisis of democracy
Average real wage of UK workers barely moved since 2008.
Some bosses collect 1,110 times the average worker pay.
50 families have more wealth than bottom 50% of the population combined.
Super-rich buy political parties and lawmakers to advance their interests.
Did you vote for the above?

So, Johnson, Farage, Badenoch, the Telegraph… howl about the UK being “an irrelevance on the world stage”.
Remind me again who decided to isolate us with a strategically and economically idiotic Brexit, relying on a trade deal with the US to save us from exactly the kind of weakness they now bemoan.

‘Stop hyperventilating about the special relationship – it’s just a disagreement’ | The News Agents
Donald Trump is fuming at Keir Starmer for not supporting the US and Israel invasion of Iran – but does it matter?
"Trump is going to claim victory in Iran, but he's going to stop the bombing within a week or two."
"Oil prices will be going up at the pumps in America, and Americans will start asking 'what the fuck are we doing in Iran?'"

Daily Mail Twitter post:
Flying a Union Jack Flag is branded a ‘tool of hate’ in government's leaked social cohesion strategy.
Multiple Union Jack and St George’s Cross flags are displayed prominently along a road, amidst greenery and a building in the background.
“A leaked draft of the proposals suggests national symbols were sometimes used last summer to 'exclude or intimidate'.
It warned that the: 'EXTREME RIGHT HAS TRIED TO TURN SYMBOLS OF PRIDE INTO TOOLS OF HATE'”
Okay…

This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.
