What a nightmare. The U.S. economy has been shedding jobs overall since April 2025. From May 2025 through February 2026, the net change in employment is now -19,000 jobs.
Stunning victory in Stroud last night.
Look at that majority! ๐๐
Huge congratulations to @helenelliott-boult.bsky.social and the entire team!

If itโs true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Rep. Nancy Mace: "I believe Pam Bondi has been less than truthful with the American people and Congress on the Epstein files. I want to know where the files are that were on her desk, because they're not in the hands of Congress ... I want to know why this is continuing to be covered up."
Wait. They are releasing Epstein files to distract Americans from the war in Iran now?
Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)
Look on the bright side, however bad you think things are now always remember they could be a whole lot worse. Liz Truss could still be prime minister.
Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, theyโre under attack.
Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.
DOJ finally admits tens of thousands of Epstein files were removed to protect Trump

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
The reason we have โstupid rules of engagementโ is to make sure we donโt bomb elementary schools.
"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)
NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities
McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.
Bigot surprised when bigoted party she joined turns out to be bigoted

Itโs looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
I see Nigel "always cheated never defeated" Farage is now trying to stop non UK citizens from voting. This would mean my Irish wife would have no right to vote despite giving 20 years of hard work and taxes to the UK state.
And where does it stop - the unemployed/benefit claimants will be next
Countdown to Putin brazenly declaring that the US should respect the sovereign integrity of other states and not launch attacks whilst talks are progressing.
U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
The military industrial complex is cheering today.
Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.
Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.
A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.
Maybe itโs you thatโs wrong, Wes.
Maybe youโre just not appealing to anyone much.
Youโre not convincing Reform voters but, in pandering to them, youโre pissing everyone else off.
Progressives have had a decade of being scorned and ignored. Donโt criticise us for minding and doing something about it.
When you start an illegal war to distract from the other illegal things you've done.

Still true
I would like to say Midterms may help us but unfortunately despite the people telling me he can't openly interfere in an election I feel he is going to try his best to do just that. And Congress will allow it.
Americans rise up against your government.
I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Marylandโs families and communities.
I served in Afghanistan and Iโve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.
This aged like milk in the scorching desert sun.
