2025.

Just thinking about that time the Romulans tried to install a puppet Klingon as chancellor so that they could rule the empire from Romulus, and break up the Klingon-Federation alliance that had kept the galaxy in relative peace for decades, for no reason at all.

That whole meeting was a setup! President Zelensky was invited to the White House and instead walked into a trap at the Kremlin!! He held his ground and did NOT give into the orange clown. NO SECURITIES........NO MINERALS DEAL!! #SlavaUkraini

Y’all… I just watched a reaction to E.T. and was like, ‘huh, for coding an alien, they aren’t doing half bad. I’ve seen way worse medical stuff in movies before’ So, I had to google… ‼️It’s because Spielberg got real doctors from USC Medical Center for that part‼️

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable. 2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.

🔴Keir Starmer and the Trump Appeasers Why those in Downing Street deluding themselves that Britain can somehow flatter Donald Trump into allying with our interests need to wake up, and fast www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/keir-starm...

We all saw it and heard it with our own eyes. So did Europe! #TheGreatestBetrayal

Oh yes.

I’ve watched enough mafia movies to know that if you’re gonna shakedown a pillar of the community, you do it in private, you make it clear they’re not to tell anyone, maybe you put a couple of your goons on the front door so no one comes in. Because it’s shameful. You don’t do it on live television

Previously on Bylines Scotland... "Indicating that the Prime Minister and Chancellor Rachel Reeves had been strongly pro-EU in the past, Sturgeon said: “If Sir Keir and Chancellor Rachel Reeves listened to former versions of themselves, they would know how wrong they are.”

Actually Keir Starmer & Rachel Reeves this would be quite a good thing to have here 🇬🇧

Bridget Philipson, Lisa Nandy, Rachel Reeves and Annalise Dobbs (now resigned); all briefed against by Labour insiders er al. I wonder what they all have in common 🤔?

International Development Minister resigns over aid budget cuts. She said that while the PM was not 'ideologically opposed' to international development, the cuts were portrayed as aligning with Trump's #USAID reductions. Why not just #TaxTheRich, #UK? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Kinship carers are struggling to pay for the extra costs of raising a child. Most don’t get any financial support. This is unfair. Email Rachel Reeves and call on her to give all kinship carers the financial support they need to provide for their families secure.kinship.org.uk/page/165806/...
