Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.

Vance calls Zelenskyy "disgraceful" for pushing back on Trump's claim that Ukraine started the war. If Trump tells you that night is day, you'd better echo him or you will pay. America is now a predator nation. thenationalpulse.com/2025/02/19/e...

Increasing your Water Bills 44% ABOVE inflation in the next 5 years isn't enough for the Water Companies, they have appealed to Ofwat to let them increase them up to 83% ABOVE inflation. Like if they can get stuffed. RT if we should nationalise the lot.

The moral authority that the state of Israel once claimed, by virtue of being a homeland for the victims of the Holocaust, is gone, obliterated, utterly dissipated. Instead, Israel now, itself, joins the ranks of genocidal states, its reputation as a nation destroyed forever.

Vance now actively endorsing far right parties in Europe betrays the legacy of the American men and women who gave their lives to liberate Europe from fascism.

They passed it. “The vote came just a day after hundreds of critics spoke out against the proposal during an hourslong hearing Tuesday.”

The audacity of Vance scolding Europe for having annulled Romanian election results due to Russian interference, representing a president who violently physically attacked the US system of governance and refused to acknowledge his defeat, still claiming the elections was stolen, is simply disgusting

Revelation after revelation today, on top of the BBC investigation into CV lies and (alleged 😊) expenses fiddling I suggest, Ms Reeves, that you do us all - and the climate - a favour, and jump before you are pushed

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.

US just pursuing Russian foreign policy, top to bottom. Bombshell is the right word here as it means that the US cannot be regarded as an ally, so that's like blowing up a/the pillar of Nato.

Trump Govt orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed from scholarly research. This is unprecedented censorship of thought and inquiry. A return to the middle ages. insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

Under Trump, the NLRB is dropping its opposition to a lawsuit filed by SpaceX and Amazon claiming the board itself is unconstitutional. Two of the world's richest men could get what they've always dreamed of: the destruction of unions once and for all.

This is what spending $290 million on an election gets you. Money in politics has always corrupted, but it's hardly been this brazen.
