Not all parties are gunho behind Trump. Do u want to hear the otherside? Do u want to hear LibDems (with 72 seats), Greens, SNP (in Gvmt) & Plaid? ATM we’re not getting full picture on Iran/israel yet Farage is being platformed like he’s PM in waiting. Signnow petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Farage's latest grift explained: 1 Abolish inheritance tax so his mates can pass on their ill gotten gains tax free 2 give a few hundred pounds (means tested) to the less well off to pay NHS fees (which will go to Farage's mates)

DENYING PEOPLE DUE PROCESS & IGNORING THE COURTS IS IMPEACHABLE. SENDING PEOPLE TO CONCENTRATION CAMPS IS IMPEACHABLE. STANDING UP A GESTAPO IS IMPEACHABLE. CRASHING AGENCIES & REMOVING CONGRESSIONAL $ IS IMPEACHABLE. STARTING AN ILLEGAL WAR IS IMPEACHABLE. Call your reps. Say it. 202-224-3121

I am again in 2028

In 2018 Trump tore up the nuclear containment deal with Iran that President Obama negotiated . Trump said he would engage all nations in a new deal. Wrong. He didn’t. So here we are.

My 18 year old recently finished AP US History. She just asked if Congress approved Trump’s action in #Iran. When I said no, she was alarmed and said, “BUT THAT’S AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION!” Great news everyone. She understands it better than the President. #ImpeachTrump #RemoveTrump

She was not wrong

Masked ICE agents spotted swapping out license plates this morning in Bell Gardens, CA

These are not police. By law, they have to identify. If they won’t—copy their plates, call the actual police and let them know you are witnessing armed police impersonators.

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

✔️✔️

We’ve got to do something. It’s unsustainable.

Serial rapist and convicted felon who hung fake Time covers in his golf clubs because his malignant narcissist chest is a sucking black hole… is having a little stompy fit about the Nobel Peace prize. If you admire this man you have failed at life. Deeply. #RemoveTrump

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

Solar + storage is now $104 per MWh in Las Vegas or similar regions for nearly 100% clean firm power. There is no way new nuclear can compete with this. Even new gas plants will struggle and that is assuming access to cheap gas over the life-cycle of the plant, which is kind of a crazy gamble TBH.

HELL JUST BROKE LOOSE: Bernie Sanders was mid-speech in Tulsa, talking healthcare and justice, when a staffer handed him breaking news: Trump just bombed Iran Bernie’s jaw clenched. His spirit cracked right there. The crowd chanted “NO MORE WAR.” America just took one step closer to the edge.

Very much seems like the US is entering a war with Iran because Nethanyahu started it. No broader discussion about the US national interest here from the America first guys

Remove. Him. FFS. CALL YOUR REPS: 202-224-3121

I was thinking that maybe, more than 20 years after the start of the Iraq war, media coverage would be more skeptical and less sycophantic No such luck

He illegally started a war and nothing will happen because everyone in Congress is a spineless coward.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

LOOK AT THIS SHIT: ICE smashed someone’s windows, yanked them out, and then arrested the United States citizen who filmed it. That’s not “immigration enforcement.” This government is out here punishing witnesses. Fascism is HERE.

Why are no headlines focusing on the unconstitutional and dictatorial nature of this action?

btw if you are fed up with UK media relaying the 'thoughts' of the orange felon on bombing Iran don't worry. Farage is making another of his 'speeches' on Monday & this will require wall to wall 24hr media coverage..

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

Hats off to Starmer for not getting suckered into supporting current USA war initiative - unlike Blair (who doesn't deem to have shaken off that mistake even now...)

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can. ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

🫠Reform appear to be in meltdown in Exeter. 😳Two councillors reported to the police. 😲Local Party chair sacked. Wherever Reform UK goes, chaos follows and local residents lose out.

But still Reform are getting more broadcast media platforming than the Greens, LibDems, SNP &Plaid put together. Little radio/tv coverage of the chaos. We demand fair coverage &more coverage for parties with representation NOT over platforming of one. Signnow petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

SOUND THE ALARM: Obama just broke his silence and it wasn’t poetic—it was a fucking warning. This country is circling the drain. Institutions are being hollowed out, the fascists aren’t hiding, and democracy is on its knees. People better wake the hell up.

Sting told French TV he had voted remain + would like to see the UK return to the EU. “I am a European. We are the largest economic community in the world, we need to stay together. We are threatened by Russia, maybe by America – we need to stay united.” www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/sting-t...

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

And Jesus is saying...

@rachaelmaskell.bsky.social is right. 🇬🇧The British public are more than TWICE as likely to back prioritising trade with the EU over the US. 🇪🇺Largest market, clearest choice.

Always.

open.substack.com/pub/thiswill... MUST READ!!! This is Part 1.

Oh my America, North Korea really has his number! Must watch.

💯💯💯

Every time this clown leaves the country he embarrasses us on the world stage.

Political violence must always be condemned.

Yassss! Go Team 💙

Reform loses nine councillors in 6 weeks. This isn’t being mentioned by the broadcast media. Why not? @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @itvnews.bsky.social Sign our petition for no over platforming of any party and plural fair coverage of ALL parties all year round. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
