Conservative Christian values? MAGA Trump supporter, UFC CEO Dana White, warmly welcomes accused sex traffickers and rapists Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate to Las Vegas event.

Motorists are being urged to avoid part of the M50 in Dublin following a "serious collision".

Disabled women are more likely to experience abuse than their non disabled peers Weā€™re often trapped with caregivers who treat us badly & lack the support to leave Many disability benefits are cut if you marry, forcing dependence We need a universal basic income so we can have autonomy #IWD2025

Am I going insane? There was uproar about this at the time. "An image that resonates with me is a picture I captured of the thronged crowd. I still wonder if the 2020 Cheltenham Roar was the viral bomb we never realised was going off"

This brain-dead take is becoming the conventional wisdom on the struggles of young men but it's false. From homelessness to suicide prevention to opioid regulations to higher minimum wages, Democrats' platform and rhetoric are *far* better for men than anything coming from the right.

"Foreign ministers from Muslim nations have rejected calls by US President Donald Trump to empty the Gaza Strip of its Palestinian population, and instead backed a plan for an administrative committee of Palestinians to govern the territory to allow reconstruction to go ahead."

Everyone can do this.

Way too dangerous. Trans - and Iā€™d say ALL LGBT people - should steer clear of the US. Itā€™s a hostile state. Could easily find yourself beaten up or jailed. This is ā€˜Gender Critical.ā€™ It affects everyone deemed not to be looking/behaving like a stereotypical straight person.

This is shocking. It has been understood for years, that guaranteed Irish logo meant supporting Irish producers. I've been believing this lue for years. I'm appalled! @slated.bsky.social

On this International Women's Day, sharing a hopeful message from myself and the great TEDWomen founder @patmitchellmedia.bsky.social from our #TEDNext conversation about leadership. Let's all join forces to plan, support, and DO something! Let your voices be heard. www.ted.com/talks/lynda_...

Trump: "It's harder for me to deal with the victim being murdered than the murderer. They don't have any cards." šŸ™„šŸ™„šŸ™„

Ah feck! Guaranteed Irish should mean MADE in Ireland. Listening to Brid from Guaranteed Irish was maddening. It's also a private business which I never knew. www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

I had no idea... Listened to the clip from Liveline below.

āš”ļø US to stop participating in future military exercises in Europe. The U.S. has told its allies that it does not plan to participate in military exercises held in Europe beyond those already scheduled in 2025, Swedish media outlet Expressen reported.

Recommended block. Scottish troll account DESPERATE for attention.

DAAAAAAAAAN SHEHAAAAAAAAAN! #IREvFRA

Dupont is so good, that losing him (with a replacement )is like losing your 10 for 79 minute red card

Gave money to a homeless person and a woman across the street started screaming that I was an idiot, that theyā€™re an illegal immigrant and that theyā€™re ruining the country and itā€™s an absolute disgrace. The aggression and hatred was so raw. When did it become ok in Ireland to scream racist abuse?

This International Womenā€™s Day, Iā€™m remembering some of the women and girls who were martyred in Gaza:

Thematically green around the gills waiting for this match #IREvFRA

1/7 Trump just yanked tariffs on Canada & Mexico, causing chaos.But the real story? Corruption.This admin is rigging system to enrich insiders while rest of us suffer.From market manipulation to a crypto scheme, it's all a grift.I will break it down #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

ā€œThis is just the beginning.ā€ The goal of the pro-Israel lobby and its proxies is to criminalize criticism of the State of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism or, barring that, to make the cost to high it is effectively illegal.

This "immediate cancellation" violates the law. If the Admin thinks Columbia has violated Title VI by being deliberately indifferent to antisemitic harassment, it has to give Columbia a chance for a hearing first, make findings on the record, & wait 30 days. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03...

Chaos erupts b/t Trump's cabinet and Musk. New reporting from the NY Times: - Rubio, furious over Muskā€™s cuts to his agency, fired back after Musk mocked him: ā€œYou have fired nobody.ā€ Rubio countered that over 1,500 State Department officials had taken early retirements, accusing Musk of lying. 1/

The Enola Gay was apparently a DEI plane. This kind of ham-fisted error is almost enough to make one wonder whether an inexperienced, careless, drunken idiot is overseeing the Department of Defenseā€¦ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

GOP's Save Act would require a birth certificate that matches the person registering to vote. However, 69M married women have changed their legal name, so it will not match their birth certificate. That tracks with the GOP's goal of stripping women of their right to voteā€¦ What about men? #SheShed

Sharp as a tack

GOOD. Get fucked

ICE detained a US citizen in Northern Virginia with guns drawn. He offered to show ID and told the officers he was an American citizen, but they handcuffed him. He's a Trump voter, but says he is reconsidering his support after he was targeted for being Hispanic www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/n...

BREAKING: Homeland Security is ending a collective bargaining agreement with tens of thousands of TSA employees, marking a major attack on worker rights.

Such an important point. "Even Trumpā€™s own defense lawyers in his classified documents case were able to have security clearances approved by the Biden administrationā€™s national security apparatus so they could adequately represent him in court." www.cnn.com/2025/03/06/p...

"...Enoch Burke has ā€œflat out refusedā€ to disclose information about his assets and income to the High Court" "Judge increases fines from ā‚¬700 a day to ā‚¬1,400 a day after hearing Mr Burke was continuing to enter grounds and buildings at Wilsonā€™s Hospital School" www.sundayworld.com/crime/courts...

ā€˜Enoch Burke ā€œflat out refusedā€ to disclose information about his assets and income to the High Court, judge says.ā€™ www.independent.ie/irish-news/c... #ZeroDaysSinceTheBurkesWereAtItAgain

"Hungary will poll its citizens on Ukraineā€™s potential future membership in the European Union, the countryā€™s Prime Minister Viktor Orban has said." Eh, piss off. Maybe we should have a poll to kick Hungary the fuck out of the EU. www.breakingnews.ie/world/orban-...

Trumpā€™s preparing to deport 240,000 Ukrainians who have temporary legal status in the US after fleeing Russia's attacks. These people had to be financially independent, pay tax, pay around $2K in fees & have an affidavit from an American person to even come here. Cruelty to appease Vladimir Putin.

Disgusting

"US president Donald Trump has signed a proclamation marking March as Irish-American heritage month...The document, which was also signed by former US president Joe Biden last year and Mr Trump during his last term in office,ā€. www.sundayworld.com/news/irish-n...
