A reminder of the Genocide in progress. It hasn’t gone away just because of Netanyahu and Trump’s distractions in Iran. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

The idea that helping people financially ā€œensnaresā€ them and prevents them from working is a weird sort of doublespeak, much beloved of Tories … and Keir Starmer it seems… There is much to fix but this is not the way to do it… www.bbc.com/news/article...

Time for TACO? www.cnn.com/2025/06/28/e...

Vijay Kumar: The Indian chef who took Tamil fare global and won a 'food Oscar'

Has any government ever thrown away such a vast parliamentary majority so quickly? I cannot think of anything even close to a precedent. Starmer is now a lame duck. I thought that the date of the next UK GE was nailed-on 2029. Now not so sure.

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

It should not have taken a major rebellion for the Government to realise their cuts would cause immense damage to some of the most vulnerable. They should still pull this bill before the vote on Tuesday and go back to the drawing board.

Welfare concessions were common sense according to Starmer. WTF does this say about his judgement that they were included until pressured to chsngw them? I mean… WYF. Can we please have a genuine socialist option. news.sky.com/story/welfar...

Alan Rusbridger is on fire here. Starmer used to stand up for protestors he now calls terrorists Starmer has no principle he won't drop. www.independent.co.uk/voices/keir-...

Electoral reform - the pathway to sensible? I think so. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

No doubt, Establishment Democrats would have absolutely no problem with progressives if they defeat a progressive candidate in a primary and progressives turn them is a similar manner šŸ¤”šŸ˜¬šŸ˜ www.axios.com/2025/06/25/m...

If *Federal* court cannot issue *Federation-wide* rulings, it’s not really a *Federal* court, is it? Is it? www.npr.org/2025/06/27/n...

The billionaires are determined to keep Mamdani out of the Mayor’s office. Clearly, he’s on the right track! fortune.com/2025/06/26/b...

Nice to see Establishment Democrats respecting the Will of the People as expressed through the ballot box and rallying behind the chosen candidate! šŸ¤”šŸ˜¬šŸ¤® www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

At this rate, Starmer will make Trump’s regime look open! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

He didn’t expect to actually do any work… now he’s found running a Council involves real work, not just parroting fascist soundbites! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Wasn't it DOGE who did the deed?? moneywise.com/news/top-sto...

Glad to see that the 4yos in my kid's care share has figured out how to save us all. Just need to put some more posters on fence posts is all. And note that it's really true. My work here is done. šŸ§ŖšŸŒŽ

Fox News is attempting to paint Mamdani as a radical because he wants to provide ā€œbaby baskets to newborns.ā€ Are they aware that the Republican reconciliation bill would give every newborn a ā€œTrump accountā€ with $1000?

Whittier Mayor’s silence on ICE raids exposes political divide in Latino-majority city. Grassroots volunteers are patrolling neighborhoods and targeting Republican-held city council seats after immigration enforcement sparked community outrage. lapublicpress.org/2025/06/whit...

Democrats fret that they might actually have to speak for regular working Americans… www.dailybreeze.com/2025/06/25/e...

The Trump administration’s plan to repeal a rule prohibiting logging and road construction in undeveloped parts of national forests would strip protection from more than 4 million acres within California’s borders. cal.news/4eERNMR šŸ“ø Miguel Gutierrez Jr.

President Kennedy once said ā€œWe do [..] not because it’s easy, but because it’s hardā€. For Trump it’s ā€œWe do [..] because it’s easy, not hardā€. It’s hard to track down and prosecute criminals. Better to kidnap your housekeeper, store assistant, etc. off the street or courtroom - that’s easy.

Will he now run as an Independent? How many establishment Democrats will betray their own party to back him if he does? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Pete ā€œLeakyā€ Hesgeth says the FBI is investigating who leaked the report about the failure of Trump’s attack on Iran. Certainly no need to investigate who leaked the attack plans allowing Iran plenty of time to move stuff out - we know it was Trump, on Pravda Social.. www.bbc.com/news/article...
