Trump gangster government

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

‼️ "There will be no quick end to the war. We should not discount Ukraine. We could not defeat them, they will not make territorial concessions," — Strelkov-Girkin

The one really positive thing about Trump’s firing the CJCS and Musk and DOGE attacking the Pentagon is that it’s awesome for Canada and Greenland/Denmark

Canadians never bend in the face of tyranny. This is our story as a nation, and I am so proud to be part of that story today. Across Canada and the United States the resistance will come from ordinary people. Keep kicking at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=es5q...

Wow! The number of @bsky.app users just passed 32 MILLION! 👏 LETS DO THIS!

UK competition regulator fines Citi, HSBC, Morgan Stanley, Royal Bank of Canada, Deutsche Bank £100m for breaching competition law. All have history of abuses. No one prosecuted, no personal fines. Puny fines don't deter, will be passed to customers.

Kate Forbes: “It is baffling that the new UK Government has explicitly ruled out repealing the Internal Market Act before it begins the review process and consultation.” Not baffling, Labour does not want to help Scotland have any powers, they want to hold us back. www.gov.scot/news/demand-...

It's no bother if you can't, but if you can afford to chip in that would be immense. We'll still bring you stories about and affect Scotland. We're all volunteers fighting for #CitizenJournalism!

No we ain't going anywhere. But if they need some players to help get them back on their feet after tackling Team Canada we might be willing to help. Maybe.

⚡️ Canadian Ambassador: Returning Russia to the G7 is a mistake. "Circumstances remain unchanged since Crimea's annexation." She vows stronger sanctions and firm G7 support for Ukraine.

Casually bringing this back… #OCanada 🍁

Fellow book lovers! There is a better way to buy our books than Amazon. Instead of putting $ in Bezos' pocket, every purchase on @bookshop-org.bsky.social financially supports independent bookstores. You can even select the bookstore you'd like to support.

President Macron: "Russia is already aggressive towards the whole of Europe.It's started.It's got a strong army,it's attacking us on information,cyber,migration.I can mention other things.It's destabilizing us,it's attacking our interests in Africa,it's provoking us,testing us at sea,in the air"

Never underestimate Ukraine. Many did, especially Putin. Trump is making the same mistake - again.

Today's front page of The New York Post.

Saturday Feb. 22, at 2:00 pm here in D.C. at the Lincoln Memorial, there's a rally for Ukraine, organized by United Help Ukraine, Razom for Ukraine, and others. Trump may have switched sides. America needn't. unitedhelpukraine.org/events/3-yea...

How sad. How very pathetic. Suddenly, America is a much smaller version of what it could have been.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

More evidence of harms inflicted by private equity on US healthcare. Usual pattern: profiteering, hiking debt, low investment, poor patient care and safety. Yet UK NHS being handed to private equity without any evidence, 30%-40% public money vanishes in profits. Money buys less.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

The DHS will use polygraphs to question employees about communications with the media or nonprofit organizations in an effort to root out members of the resistance.

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

Everyone needs to see this. Be ready to deny access, even if you don't know any immigrants. Let them waste time and you might save a family somewhere else. #Disobey #blue #fotus #FBR #immigrants #TruthWarriors #theresistance #resist #FBPE #FuckICE #SaveOurDemocracy #sanctuary #organize #fucktrump

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the United States Senate. What a shrivelling symposium of crumpets. Poor, weak, and ridiculous. They betray their constituents. They betray their country.

A flaw in Ofgem’s regulation of the energy sector, based on estimates of costs from 2021 to 2028, has meant that households were forced to pay billions in undeserved profits to companies during the cost of living crisis while racking up record levels of debt, according to Citizens Advice
