Jeffries: hey the GOP controls the government, absolutely nothing i can do, gonna work on my personal book tour Sanders: brb i am going to personally barnstorm strategic GOP house districts and try to peel off 2 votes so we can block Trump's cuts to Medicaid www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

👀 👀 👀 here’s big boy bob attempting to drag one of his constituents out of a public town hall meeting, and threatening to pepper spray her if she did not comply. he stated he wasn’t acting in his official capacity, yet he was wearing a hat that said sheriff and his badge was visible on his belt

Wonderful ...

Wha hoo!!

Apart from all the nonsense she speaks, here and elsewhere, what is wrong with being "nice" anyway? If more people were better behaved, we'd all be in a better situation!

Yesterday a fucker responded to my post about this article saying no one gives a shit about my "28 pgs of crap" & that I'd best "be quiet" about the subject. So I will now RT this every hour for a day. U can help me stick it to him by reading my piece instead of just RT. I wrote to be accessible.

This is absolute racist drivel and should be called out for it. I am a child of an immigrant. I am British. As are millions of others. If he’d swapped Pakistan for Australia, his so called theory falls on its face because his apparent problem is race, not nationality.

I can understand people wanting a change from the business as usual status quo that they feel ignores them. But this does scare me.

Well said, that man, thank you. It needs saying regularly and often.

VG from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social but as others have said the historical analogy is wrong. Chamberlain wasn't a Nazi fellow-traveller. AfD supporter and far-right propagandist Goodwin is much closer to Oswald Mosley.

“there are Neville Chamberlain’s in every generation” George Monbiot’s takedown of Matt Goodwin and the Reform party is a thing of beauty 👏 #bbcqt

Excellent episode, turns out that common sense and cooperation may be beneficial for all of us. Who'd a thunk it? Thank you @wanderinggaia.bsky.social and @snellarthur.bsky.social

Turns my stomach, I had hoped we were better than that.

What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

1. EXCLUSIVE Today, the NSA is planning a "Big Delete" of websites and internal network content that contain any of 27 banned words, including "privilege," "bias," and "inclusion," a NSA source tells Popular Information. The massive purge is creating chaos, taking down "mission-related" work

“They didn’t assault.” That Trump is allowed to deny the reality we saw with our eyes on Jan 6th, that is on tape!, & just ramble on with lie after lie, is a total indictment of our failed media industry. How reporters can just stand there as he says this stuff is beyond me. Have some self respect!

A much needed laugh out loud at breakfast. Thank you @vizcomic.bsky.social and @snellarthur.bsky.social

Totally agree, as attitudes change behaviour changes. Inspiring empathy rather than demanding obedience.

How splendid is this? Life continues despite the nonsense...

Good to see you here on Bluesky

Interested to note that three of the top four were women.

I think we can already award the prize for stupidest Labour MP’s policy proposal. “That thing that destroyed three Tory governments, the thing that if we did it would wreck our economy, let’s do that, in a doomed effort to pose as a knock-off Nigel Farage.”

If you want a long, but very thorough, read on just how crazy dangerous the situation is with Elon, @brockm.bsky.social has laid it all out in a single article. Please read it. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/05/t...

Trump has clearly not spoken to a single Palestinian about this plan. Gaza is our land. Palestine is our home. Peace cannot come at the cost of our country. I urge the UK and the whole international community to resist him. Recognise Palestine now, before it's too late.

“Elon Musk said the British Gov’t, elected by the British people just a few months ago, should be overthrown..Elon Musk has to be held to account” Sir Ed Davey 👏

Currently watching this for the first time. So very relevant for our times. Just started series 4, it's getting deeper and darker ...

I hope it's the former. However, judging from many of the comments and the @hopenothate.org.uk report today, I fear that ship is sailing. People are losing hope ...

As a wheelchair user I welcome any inclusivity interventions. I see many improvements on NT properties and I'm guessing they don't just happen! I assume there is a team and a Head of that team!
