Trump is losing the American people.
No amount of mainstream or social media gymnastics will get them behind this war, especially as they see more soldiers in caskets and their costs of living spike out of control.
…
The irony is physically painful.
Jen Psaki Lays It Out For Us On Mark-My-Words-He-Sucks-Wayne Mullin
Every time he says something like this, the Secret Service quietly googles, “is dementia covered under executive privilege?”
I'm working on a book proposal at the moment, the core thesis of which is "Democracy fails not when lies spread, but when verified reality can no longer alter incentive structures." and we're seeing it happen in real time. Which is good for the book, but bad for democracy.
It's really unfair to compare this to Iraq in 2003, at least then they had the decency to put some effort into their lies and deception.
Does he even know where Clacton is?
📌 ICYMI — Revealed: The Staggering Amount of Time Nigel Farage has Spent on ‘Second’ Jobs Since Becoming an MP
The Reform UK leader has logged more than 1,100 hours for 14 outside employers since his election in July 2024
Just been updating information on our website about climate impacts in the UK - they are so much worse in the Global South and countries are being driven further into debt.
Essential to reform the global financial system and for rich nations to actually pay up with the climate finance promised.
John Fetterman (Pa.)
Maggie Hassan (N.H.)
Tim Kaine (Va.)
Andy Kim (N.J.)
Gary Peters (Mich.)
Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.)
Elissa Slotkin (Mich.)
These Dem Senators have one thing in common. They all voted for Kristie Noem to head the DHS. Fetterman is a lost cause but the rest better not approve Mullin.
At what point do calls for another Scottish #indyref become a thing?
(Joke, joke.)
"It'll be over by Christmas"
This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.
The post was “JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY. 🇺🇸 🔥”
A sickening society is clear in these statistics
So why is it not in the news?
Powerful wake-up call from @chakrabortty.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Hungary has detained 7 employees of the Ukrainian Oshchadbank who were transporting foreign currency and banking metals as part of a regular agreement.
It is reported that the vehicle is detained at the territory of Hungary's anti-terrorism center, location of employees is unknown at the moment.
In Japan, public transport (which is privately owned and run), and active travel fills the gap created by lower private car ownership, and Japan is better for it.
We should be like Japan where on-street parking is prohibited on urban and city roads. If you don't have a place to park you car on private property, you can't own a car.
I love the way expensive new roads are celebrated, even if in business case terms, they only shave a few seconds of journeys.
But when it is a modest scheme to help to get buses moving, that same argument is deployed against.
Sorry Bub, it's not your road outside.

Zelenskyy has the cards
Zelenskyy: "We received a request from the United States for specific support in protection against "shaheds" in the Middle East region. I gave instructions to provide the necessary means and ensure the presence of Ukrainian specialists who can guarantee the required security."
I think people are starting to realise that competence is better than populism. There is a definite feeling on the doorstep that Reform are in decline.
A New York Times investigation indicates it was a U.S. strike on an Iranian school that killed 175 people, mostly children.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkey—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprus—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.
I think this is Israel.
Well would you look at that
Iranian author, Sahar Delijani explains why regime change imposed from outside is not liberation.
This war is not for the Iranian people, it is to further enrich the oligarchy.
Every reason given is a lie.
Every missile is a war crime.
#FuckWar
There is just something deeply disturbing and offensive about watching a Labour govt keep kicking the most vulnerable in our society.
They all have their hands in the till.
It’s 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.
Tan suits are ok now
