I clearly don’t know what’s good for me & nor does @jdportes.bsky.social because on 15th of May we will be debating that Matt Goodwin guy & Nadim Zahawi about immigration 😅 Would dearly love there to be a friendly crowd! Tickets: howtoacademy.com/events/welco...

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

Food for thought.

More people are downloading and listening to the audio version of Jack Smith's report than are watching Joe and Mika. Go, you! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

Too cold, or not enough attendees 🤔 #donaldtrump #inauguration

live your life in such a way that the entire world doesn't burst out laughing when your rocket blows up

“Report by Jack Smith says evidence ‘was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction’ had Trump not won re-election in 2024” - or had Garland not dragged his feet on this whole thing!!

@mrjamesob.bsky.social --- Many thanks for the chat just now on @lbc.co.uk about challenges to democracy in US and UK. Here's the article I mentioned on #Musk's attempt to overthrow UK Gov't bylinetimes.com/2025/01/09/e... eaworldview.com/2025/01/elon...

Gavin Newsom made a website to fight the misinformation about the fires. Give it a read. REPOST gavinnewsom.com/california-f...

Thank you, Oregon! 🙏🏽 The viral claim that 60 fire engines from Oregon were turned away in California over emissions is FALSE. Three hundred Oregon firefighters volunteered to come and have arrived in Southern California. They’re already fighting fires in Los Angeles. 🧵

Far right honker, Nigel, furiously peddles stupid, prejudiced ideas that make you poorer. Then, when you are poorer, he tells you you’re right to feel angry about that. But not with him. For love of god, England, work it out… (Private Eye)

"Once a hub for news, debate, and connection, Twitter has devolved into a cesspit of hate and chaos. Today, I’m sending my final tweet."

Women’s Aid, and 99 other organisations that work against violence to women and girls, have written a letter in support of Jess Phillips after she was targeted with dangerous and misogynistic abuse. www.womensaid.org.uk/wp-content/u...

This is a fascinating turn of events

A quick note: It is my view that the term “First Felon” should be capitalized both out of respect and because it refers to a very specific individual.

"Friday’s sentencing hearing, as strange as this may sound, gives me hope more than it gives me pause. It leads me to believe the damage Trump has done & will continue to do can be repaired through individual acts of conscience and courage. Hear me out:" joycevance.substack.com/p/sentenced?...

An American city is on fire and the world’s richest man has done nothing but lie and make it worse. Thank you to the people who are actually putting their lives on the line to save this country and fuck that spoiled rotten limp dick South African and any of the tough guys who live to kiss his ass.

If you voted for a convicted felon over a woman of color, racism might not be your only problem.

remarkable to me that far from seeming cool or masculine zuck seems like an even bigger loser — the kind of nerd who preemptively gives his lunch money to the bully and thanks him for the opportunity

The councillors alleged the party was being run in an “autocratic manner” and accused Farage of “disloyalty” to long-term members. There are splits within the party over the jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson, who is supported by Musk. Now for the Popcorn! 🍿😂😂😂 www.theguardian

From now on TFG means “that felon guy.”

We don’t have to choose this fate. But I fear we will.

One of these things is not like the others.

Labour quietly smashed it this week. While Elon Musk begged for attention, the government cracked on with tackling Britain’s thorniest problems. 10 important changes to celebrate:

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget

(Musk's) 'is not the behaviour of someone genuinely invested in justice. It’s the behaviour of someone amplifying lies, manufacturing outrage, and creating division. It’s cynical, dangerous, and an insult to victims of child sexual abuse...' The Bear, Byline Times

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Bernie woke up, went on X, and chose violence.

About to discuss on @lbc.co.uk the horrendous conditions inside our A&Es - & why it is unforgivable for the government to recognise that 300 people/week are dying from A&E overcrowding, yet offer so little to address that.

Often young, always low-paid MacDonalds workers are still facing sexual abuse, harassment & exploitation on zero-hours contracts. A full year we’ve known this. Politicians only give a damn about vulnerable people facing abuse when there’s political gain for them in it #r4today

Your roots? So a bunch of incels drinking Code Red, rating women’s faces out of anger because they won’t talk to you?
