Oh….

No-one needs to be a billionaire, and they definitely don't need a tax cut!

A poll of swing-district voters is already showing heaps of warning signs for Republicans bent on helping billionaires. That was fast. newrepublic.com/article/1918...

To all MAGA voters It's the economy, stupid

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

. . $613 BILLION. . . That’s how much Elon Musk’s companies have gained in value SINCE THE ELECTION 31 DAYS AGO. Billionaires are thriving while the rest of us struggle. The system isn’t broken—it’s working exactly as designed.

Fascists use lies as a weapon to switch the roles of victim and attacker. Hitler blamed Poland for being invaded by Germany. Putin blamed Ukraine for being invaded by Russia. Trump is repeating Putin's fascist lies. If Russia stops fighting, the war ends. If Ukraine stops fighting, Ukraine ends.

There’s some mad thinking going on among UK conservative figures right now. They’re cherry-picking the parts of the Trump agenda that they really, really like - the racism, the misogyny, the anti-trans stuff, the breaking the state so it can’t operate and calling it a return to democracy. 1/2

There are 3 special elections coming up and those 3 seats are the keys to stopping the Congressional Republicans doing Trump & Musk’s evil bidding. We need just 1 seat to block them, 2 seats to stop them, and with all 3 we can FLIP THE HOUSE. Join us!! Monday 2/24 @7:30 EST. 👇👇 mobilize.us/s/Y9NrBb

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Elon Musk's pinned tweet right now.

Global crisis style note: What Trump is doing to Ukraine is not 'blackmail', which would be demand for payment under threat of exposure of compromising information*. This is demand for payment under threat of violence/refusal to protect from violence. The word is 'extortion'.

Trump’s purge at the Pentagon is just the start. Last night he fired the highly-regarded General C Q Brown, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and replaced him with a retired three-star general, Dan Caine, who on their first meeting put on a MAGA cap and said ‘I love you, sir.’

I keep seeing DEI being called an ideology when it is not, and the white supremacy that is replacing it not being called an ideology, when it really is. That shit goes back centuries.

Some people just have a way of expressing how things are.

The Daily Star is knocking it out of the park lately.

The leader of France’s far-right quit CPAC over Nazi ideology. Meanwhile, Farage happily embraces the Nazi at the same event. Says a lot about champagne fascist Farage. #ukpolitics

We may have left the EU in 2016 after lies, misinformation, and promises of prosperity that have not materialised Luckily for us, the EU isn't that far away, it's just next door Anyone else want the UK 🇬🇧 to rejoin the EU 🇪🇺 ?

Putin “loved Brexit, cheers on the far right in Europe and backed Trump because he wants to see the crumbling of the western bloc that has stood firm against him. For a US president to follow that script….is a huge win for the Kremlin” Trump-the traitorous patsy. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The coup accelerates. Trump administration fires top US general and Navy chief in unprecedented purge of military leadership. A black men and a woman removed, replaced by cronies. Trump and his cronies will have their fingers on the nuclear button. What next?

We need facts as never before. 3 years after Putin invaded Ukraine, I spent 24 hours with combat medics on the Ukrainian frontline. Their courage, compassion, dedication & skill are astounding. Please read & please never stop standing up for Ukraine. 🇺🇦 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

The UK's anti-protest laws pre-legitimise far right authoritarianism. Labour must repeal them now. My column today. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

So, Farage struts around on stage in the US, slagging off the UK and the EU, blaming anything but Brexit for us being poorer and unhappier and crawling up Trump’s backside… What a repulsive spectacle he is. If you actually could be put in prison here for ‘saying anything’ he’d be my top pick.

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.
