Imagine being opposed to human rights. How screwed up do you need to be???

Headline of the Day goes to @reason.com — as potential next governor @MarshaBlackburn pushes a bill to lock someone up for 5 years for naming an ICE agent. Nameless, masked vigilantes roaming the streets grabbing people without due process is anti-American🇺🇸 reason.com/2025/06/06/m...

NEW: Inside the Billion-Dollar Effort to Make Trump Feel Good About Himself Trump’s administration is marshaling vast public resources and more than $1 billion worth of taxpayer money to flatter the president. Full story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Climate change is making extreme weather events more frequent and flying more dangerous. Can we now invest massively in high-speed rail? #climatechange #trains #rail #flying

Kind of think these “Abundance” and self-avowed “centrist” types should be required to label their content—maybe even their faces—with their financial sponsors. Like corporate ads on race cars. It would provide transparency and be very funny.

The DWP should be sued for causing serious distress. Is there anything in law that protects us from the state's excessive bureaucratic force? @stevepeers.bsky.social #disability #DWP www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

🚨Everything Trump has said about the Qatar plane is a LIE. Amazing story in the Post. - Qatar did NOT offer it, Trump requested it - Qatar expected a sale, not a “gift” - US Air Force says it’s in poor condition - $1.5 billion to make it useable - $500 million ADDITIONAL cost for Trump to keep it.

They do the same for perpetrators of domestic violence. Lovely guys... who kill.

If MPs want this kind of luxury safety net, they should be qualified for the job. Let's have entry exams! Democracy would only benefit from it.
