Problem being Trump does not give a fuck for The Rule of Law. ..does anybody still believe he does?

For the US president’s cheerleaders, the whitewashing of the deaths of ten of thousands of Ukrainians is a small price to pay for sticking it to the wokerati. Stewart Lee on an era “busy eating its own brainstem”. His current show is brilliant too. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Kudos to Gov. Janet Mills of Maine for standing up to Trump. He threatened loss of federal funds for her state simply because it allows trans girls to play in sports. She said, “See you in court.” Trump is a weak, shallow, callous leader who wants desperately to be a despot. #BullyPolPot

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear Donald Trump has been compared to mobster Tony Soprano by the former envoy to Panama www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

So. Those mad fish at @waterstones.bsky.social have only launched some crazy deal on pre-orders. Which means that if you enjoy (i) gritty crime fiction (ii) authors with two pseudonyms and (iii) ridonculous bargains it’s now 25% cheaper to satisfy your urges. www.waterstones.com/book/the-cut...

“The more I learn about the ferocious resolve of Ukrainian healthcare workers to keep looking after their patients, the greater my respect for their efforts and my desire to bear witness” @doctoroxford.bsky.social

The government of the USA is openly racketeering. And that is not even the worst thing about them. ‘Owning the libs’ is doing a heck of a lot of heavy lifting right now…

Jeez. US could cut Ukraine's access to Starlink internet services over minerals, say sources. Trump’s government are behaving like mobsters www.reuters.com/business/us-...

⚡️EU preparing military aid package for Kyiv worth $20.9 billion, Bloomberg reports. The additional military support would supply Kyiv with air defense systems, artillery ammunition, long-range missiles, and drones.

You have to wonder whether he ever read the magazine he edited. Once again, the Andrew Neil chapter in How They Broke Britain sets the scene rather well…

Europe? You see how President Krasnov is extorting Ukraine in exchange for honoring treaty obligations? Guess what that means is the best-case scenario for Article V? Plan accordingly.

Why is this not on every UK news channel this morning?

You know it's bad when a pope, particularly one that is very sick, rebuked the United States. "What is built on the basis of force, and not on the truth about the equal dignity of every human being, begins badly and will end badly." - Pope Francis #PopeFrancis #immigration #dignity

A Version of the Atomic Whirl: Created by the American Atheists in 1963, this symbol represents the idea that scientific inquiry & the scientific method are the best ways to achieve human progress. Has a broken lower loop to represent that all is not known. @atheists.org

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

He nails it.

Not my work and I don't know who to credit.

"See you in court." A more meaningful, more powerful constitutional maxim than "We are the federal law".

I thought this country was built by Europeans, escaping living under the rule of a King, to establish a New World governed by the people. Currently we have a president who calls Himself. Our King If this is a joke, I'm not laughing

I’m veering towards the idea the entire planet, minus a few countries whose leaders aren’t bat shit crazy, is now embracing the unsustainable transactional business model of burn everything in the vain hope god will save us, also there is no god and we are royally fucked.

it is shocking the extent to which they openly sneer at morality

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Ummm…👇 The more you know…💫

I can't believe I'm seriously at the point of downloading dumps of services like Wikipedia to self host locally to prep for mass censorship

The reason the USA is so messed up is because everyone thinks bad things will never happen to them.

It's the unfettered cruelty that astounds me...I don't know why I'm surprised...
