MPs are elected to serve their constituents, not launch their TV careers. We need a clear limit on hours spent and money earned from second jobs. Add you name to our letter. secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/170331/...

Have any of this lot recanted and issued a full-throated apology yet?

No thank you

My husband and I getting into good trouble today, despite the wind and rain- This is Chagrin Falls, just outside Cleveland in Northeast Ohio. We understood the assignment. HANDS OFF-DAMMIT!

Hello world! My name is Marcy Rheintgen and I recently became the first person to be arrested under the transgender bathroom bills!

How's that one workin out for ya Jake my son?

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

Will any UK government honour its pledge to ban trophy animal imports? www.channel4.com/news/will-an...

This is what you call two different readouts of the same meeting. Go Denmark, Go Greenland!

Protesters in Paris, France set an American flag and a cardboard Tesla on fire.

This happened today… just in case you missed it with all the other fuckery happening.

Being a woman with an opinion on the internet is just this, over and over.

These so-called British citizens are actually cheering as Trump slaps tariffs on British businesses - actively celebrating economic harm to their own country like the traitors they are. Instead of standing up for British industry, they’re grovelling to Trump who couldn’t care less about the UK.

"We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out." Robert Reich THIS IS FASCISM!

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Tariffs are tax cuts.

This is a real tweet posted by the official White House government account. Yes, really.

Canada is potentially about to elect a Prime Minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford, Mexico elected someone with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering… Meanwhile, America elected a barely sentient orange turnip. Any Questions?!

Terrific reporting by @nytimes.com. Shame the British media can’t expose this for themselves. Will only fuel suspicion that Farage and his Brexit gang are - and have always been - a Putinist front

Thou shalt not snatch people off the streets for their opinions.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Photo of the Day. Some hope.

have to respect the posh fascist for looking exactly like what you'd picture if asked to think of a posh fascist

"US authorities accused the French researcher of 'hateful and conspiratorial messages'... [and] informed of an FBI investigation... before being expelled." If you've got any plans to visit the US in the near future, you should seriously reconsider www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

UK Subs detained

Jawdropping. You would expect this in a dictatorship, not the United States. This country is unrecognizable.

Donald, bring it. I’m so tired of your victimy whiney belly aching crap. You friggin won and you STILL are complaining all the time. BRING IT YOU SMALL LITTLE BOY

How is this real life?

Slightly worried this is all going to end up with the rest of the world ganging together to nuke the US into the sun out of sheer annoyance at this level of arrogance.

Deeply concerning news about our friend and former BF teammate Rebecca Burke whose backpacking trip to the US has ended with her being detained by ICE for over ten days, with no clear timeline for her release. Please read her father's statement here: www.facebook.com/paulrburke

Many people think Americans are stupid. I have long tried to argue against this. Americans (specifically the GOP) make this REALLY hard.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

Seems a sound idea. After all, what could possibly go wrong? 🙄 #MAGAUSA

This is the MOST DELICIOUSLY EMBARRASSING THING you will see all week, if not all month. Richard Tice car crash in Scotland. He doesn't know the full names of the two Reform UK defectors or which council they are from. It truly deserves to go viral.

BREAKING NEWS: Canadian Premier Wab Kinew of Manitoba MOCKS Trump by signing a “beautiful” order that officially removes ALL American liquor from Canadian stores in his province. Donald Trump just caused massive economic damage to our country. How sad and embarrassing.

Threatening to annex their country and then starting a completely unprovoked trade war is a great way unify them against you and strengthen their resolve to make it as long and painful for you as possible. The 3d chess is in full effect!

Whatever comes of it, if anything, the fact that the UK and France under Starmer and Macron have managed to overcome their countries’ recent differences and work together at the centre of a European and allied effort to bring peace to Ukraine is properly heartening in bleak times

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

👏

This is the problem with the timidity and fake balance of BBC political coverage. A historic betrayal of Ukraine to Russia by Europe's former ally is boiled down to an utterly superficial row about a man's clothes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer walks Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to his motorcade after their meeting in Number 10

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.
