ICE looking more and more like the American Gestpo.

Huge crowds. Huge. Only fake news says otherwise.

This is, for me, where the Nazi/fascist parallels work best. ‘Good’ people did nothing as the awfulness escalated because they were justifiably terrified of getting their heads kicked in or killed. It’s about comparing similar points in the process as opposed to comparing end days with early ones.

Tighten your belts, kids! Trump needs his big, beautiful birthday parade #FYC

I asked Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to justify cutting Medicaid by $700 billion dollars just to give the very richest people in this country a $235 billion tax break. You won't be surprised to learn: he didn't have an answer.

It's happening. I've started feeling sorry for Kemi Badenoch..

More than a century after the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, one of the most horrific episodes of racial violence in U.S. history, the city’s mayor announced a $105 million reparations package on Sunday. It is the first large-scale plan committing funds to address the impact of the atrocity.

The far right will, of course, treat the Paul Doyle case very differently from one where the accused is darker-skinned or foreign or both. The rest of us must not. That’s kind of the point.

Like others, I understand why they released the fact that the perpetrator of the horrendous Liverpool attack was a white British man. But it is a bad sign of where our country of at. Nationality or ethnicity are not the causes of crime & should not be our first concern #r4today

Oh. news.sky.com/story/leaked...

This will NEVER get old‼️🤣🤣🤣

It says everything about how Blair has spent his retirement that my first thought on hearing this was to wonder which fossil fuel interest paid him to say it. He sets a dismal example, especially compared to Gordon Brown’s laudable focus on charity work and other good causes.

“I am not afraid of you.” That is what Mohsen Mahdawi told the Trump administration after a judge released him from ICE detention. No charges. Just speech. When power starts punishing protest, the law becomes a battlefield. And every release becomes a message.

Only one news show won't tell you what's objectively true or false: Agree to Disagree!

Illegal arrests made by the Trump administration are intended to spread fear and silence dissent. We cannot allow Trump and his cronies to turn the United States of America into an authoritarian society in which people can be disappeared for their political beliefs.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…

The US health care system is broken & wildly expensive. The function of a health care system is not to provide billions in profits for insurance & drug companies. It is to provide quality care as a human right. The time is NOW to pass Medicare for All.

Actor and producer Gabrielle Union on what it means to elicit change and attain true equality in Hollywood

He’s got away with untold crimes, lies & offences. He’s achieved the highest office in the land. Twice. He’s lining his pockets on an industrial scale & persecuting his enemies for fun. But he’s still a miserable, bitter, humourless & furious man. Because deep inside, he knows *exactly* who he is.

This.

It’s extraordinary that so much media still reports on Trump with the old, redundant tools of the trade. He lied about Ukraine, then he tried to extort Ukraine, and having failed he threatens to walk away from Ukraine. The idea that he was ever going to do anything unwelcome to Putin is ridiculous.

Something about Trump's physical exam isn't adding up...

The phrase is "Kiss me, I'm Irish." Nowhere does it say anything about groping

Records are meant to be broken. Congrats @booker.senate.gov for stepping up and standing up for the American people. Blazing your own path for the W 👏👏👏👏👏

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.   It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

So, Le Pen gets banned from running for election because she’s found guilty of embezzlement and her far-right fanclub starts huffing and puffing about whether this is democratic. Err. Yes. If you’re found guilty of corruption, you’re unfit for public office. It doesn’t matter how ‘popular’ you are.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Brexit. Trump. Truss. Boris Johnson. Netanyahu… It never ceases to amaze me just how much of our media & politicians waltz away unscathed after being so catastrophically & hideously wrong about all the major moments of our time.

This is a mission everyone should be able to get behind. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been torn from their families. No effort must be spared to bring them home:https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-halts-program-track-abducted-ukrainian-children-lawmakers-2025-03-18/

⚡️FIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY ⚡️ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. ❤️💙 See you there 💪🏽🌞

The last *seven days*? What *we* have *always feared*? What an irredeemable fraud he is. Gets a whole chapter in ‘How They Broke Britain’. And here he is now, ‘seeing the light’. Danny Dyer voiceover: “Twat.”

Struck by the trademark weapons grade hypocrisy of Farage reporting a coleague to police for alleged threats of violence while hoovering uo dollars for lying to Americans about our free speech being under threat from the police...

“Who pays Trump's new tariffs? Spoiler alert: it's not Canada, Mexico, or China. It's YOU.” -Robert Reich ⬇️

Imagine a country's leader speaking articulately and coherently with actual facts and reason—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau explains clearly the repercussions of Trump's trade war on Canada and exactly how it's going to cause tremendous pain to Americans.

Two weeks ago, the use of the word ‘alignment’ by *critics* of the Kremlin felt bold…

It might be time to stop treating Farage as if he's some sort of special confidante of Trump. The human skid mark hasn't got a clue what's going on in the White House, as the Chagos situation demonstrated, or what on earth Trump will do next.

Dear JD Vance…

Anyway, all the commentators, presenters, hacks & politicians who bigged up austerity, Brexit, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, Donald Trump etc will be back at work tomorrow, making massive new mistakes without a thought for the damage they do or the misery they facilitate. Someone should write a book…

They are arguing, endlessly, that illegally inciting acts of terror online is ‘free speech’ while silencing dissent, targeting journalists & telling an invaded ally what he is & is not allowed to say during a live television broadcast are all fine.

Yes

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.
