Finnish MEP Mika Aaltola reports that the Trump led US has given Europe three weeks to agree on terms for Ukraine’s surrender to Russia. "Trump prioritizes Russia’s security concerns now and in the future. Let them own their mess. We have three weeks to grow up." www.kyivpost.com/post/47574

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.

😱 🐟 🏛️ The English city in the sea. "Beneath the North Sea, just off the Suffolk coast, lies the ghost of a city once alive with trade and bustling streets. Dunwich was once a medieval port, as vast as the City of London, with a population at its height in the 13th century of ten thousand."

Well, this nonsense is going to get dismissed faster than almost anything in the history of dismissals. Between judicial immunity (you can't sue a judge over the validity of his orders) and lack of personal jurisdiction (no, the court can't compel a Brazilian judge to defend his orders in FL) ...

Labour under Attlee, with far greater economic challenges than today, had boldness, vision & a compelling story. Starmer’s Labour fails on all 3 counts, which amounts to laying out a welcome mat to Farage. On eve of publication of #AnotherEngland in paperback, I write for @prospectmagazine.co.uk👇

Yep, DOGE is as incompetent as everyone thought. An $8 million "saving" has been listed as an $8 BILLION saving. That is 14.5% of their total claimed $55 billion in "savings" having been completely made up.

We are so sad to see that @denzilmeyrick.bsky.social has died. He graced us with his wry humour and quick wit at the festival in 2017, 2018, 2022 and 2024. Our thoughts go to his family and friends, especially his wife, Fiona.

So if Musk doesn’t run DOGE, and DOGE isn’t a real government agency, then no one has to listen to Musk or do what the DOGE bros tell them to do, right?

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
