Keir Starmer could've taken Thames Water back into public hands months ago. Now he's being blackmailed by the only remaining bidder willing to rescue the utility before it runs out of cash at the end of the month. Their terms: don't prosecute our crimes.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be the story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

🙄👇 “Since they took control of KCC, the first priority of Reform was to take down flags and cancel meetings. Their local councillors have gone AWOL. They then send their Chair to lead their ‘DOGE’, only for him to resign two days later. It’s a clown show. We deserve better.” | Jonathon Hawkes

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

The epitome of this administration - cruel, lazy, inept and incompetent. 👇

It’s a case of rubber meets the road- the reality of governing is much harder than bombastic claims. There are now enough Reform run councils to scrutinise and hold to the account. Whether Farage in particular is held to account or allowed to obfuscate is up to the media but also local residents.

Are we so shallow a country that we’re more interested in the adolescent spat between Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Stephen Miller Rather than the massive damage they’re causing Including potentially killing 50,000 Americans per year with the Trump disgusting abomination bill Trumps Bill Will Kill

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

A Palantir database on all Americans is a frightening step towards fascism. Musk gets a lot of attention—rightfully so—but Peter Thiel is the techno-fascist billionaire hiding behind the scenes pulling the strings to end democracy. Thiel and his techno-fascist followers are threats to the world.

Palantir has received more than $113 million in federal funds from Trump, including additional existing contracts with the DHS and the Pentagon. Defense also gave Palantir a $795 mm contract last week. Thanks to Palantir tech, Trump can finally get all that data. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/t...

Just in case context is needed into what Palantir the name comes from, it's here. These fascist fucks named it after a tool that was used for evil. And are creating a thing that will be used for evil. They aren't hiding that fact.

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics. This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.
