Friend who served in the Army says he’s getting messages from friends still serving saying, “I’m ashamed to be an American.” Utterly disgusting.

The Pentagon chief Hegseth ordered the US Cyber Command to stop all activities against Russia, including offensive cyber operations, the industry publication Record reported.

Hillary Clinton was right about Donald Trump this whole time.

I'll go one better. The information in the Epstein binder was already publicly available.

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

It's coming. Pay attention.

Morning Bluesky. Apparently “long-term shareholder value” is important. More important than the planet, our children, our children’s children and the human race in its entirety. Who knew?

Bwahahaha. Mar-a-Lago was listed as "Kremlin Headquarters" for a little while on Google Maps. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

A former Soviet intelligence officer has claimed Donald Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename "Krasnov" Who would have guessed www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news...

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Well that's believable.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

The UK Labour govt’s plans to overhaul the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and accompanying proposals to harness pension funds for the country’s much-needed infrastructure investment have sparked widespread debate. How much should private companies be forced to assist/replace public duties?

BREAKING: Massive protest rallies are happening today across the country, blasting DOGE and the guy that nobody voted for. There will even be a protest at SpaceX headquarters. SPREAD THE WORD. 🙏💪

Meet 11-year-old Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, a young girl from Texas whose life was tragically cut short. She died by suicide after classmates threatened to call ICE on her family. Stop dehumanizing immigrants. That is not America.

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

Ironic, given the result of the US election today, that I've just finished #Kleptopia by Tom Burgis. Fantastic but worrying book #kleptocracy

Thinking about facts this morning. I love this concise explanation of accurate, non-fiction storytelling from Tom Burgis' book, Kleptopia.

Hard to believe Trump being anything else than a Russian asset now.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Nigel Farage says he will always put "country" first. Here's a reminder of which country he's talking about.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

It "implies a burden of reparations that cannot possibly be achieved."
