NOT ‘DIP INTO YOUR SAVINGS?!’ THE HORROR 😱 (Not suggesting I’m not sympathetic to parents whose children cannot attend mainstream schools and are having to make difficult financial decisions but this headline is completely tone deaf during a cost of living crisis where most ppl dream of savings).

Sen. KLOBUCHAR: How is stoking political outrage profitable for Facebook? Meta whistleblower: We’re all living with the consequences. This company wants to dominate as much time and attention of as many people as they can. They’ve learned outrage is a good way to do that.

I have withheld some criticism of Starmer as I don't believe you can fix 14 years of Tory misrule without at least a full term in office. However, the sentiment in this quoted post will also be a red line for me at the next GE. That, or at least rejoining the single market.

“J. D. Vance’s selection as Trump’s running mate suggests that Vance’s benefactor, Peter Thiel, is running the show, reprising an aborted effort to run the show from 2016. He seems to have learned from his mistakes.” By @davetroy.com, 7/30/24 1/

Do you think Jesse Michels will discuss the international far-right networks actually responsible for the JFK assassination in his interview with Harald Malmgren? Or will they whitewash the whole thing and blame it on the government hiding aliens? Is Malmgren’s daughter an investor in Anduril?

One thing I’ve learned is that you can’t have a truly informed opinion on a project if nobody is allowed to know who is funding it.

I’m just seeing that one of those Ecosystemic Futures podcast episodes on UAP was with Ryan Graves, Leslie Kean, and the marketing director for the Peter Thiel-backed Enigma Labs. It’s all so consistently gross.

Congress could stop Trump’s tariff policy at a stroke. This story is ultimately not about presidential power, but about congressional weakness.

Ofgem's energy pricing formula enabled companies to make £514bn operating profit. Price of electricity determined by the most expensive input i.e. gas. Electricity from wind, solar, nuclear, biomass, hydro cheaper but price determined by cost of gas. Customers ripped-off. Companies make billions.

Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.” It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay. It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime. No more military aid to Netanyahu.

This is why Vance, Musk & the rest of them talk about our ‘free speech’ being under threat while they fast track actual fascism in the USA. It’s a long con & their accomplices are far-right blue ticks with the brains of blancmange.
