A record-high 267❗️Russian drones attacked Ukraine last night. According to Air Force Command, 138 were shot down and 119 more were lost by radars. Kyiv, Dnipro, Odesa, Poltava, and Zaporizhzhia regions were hit. In Kyiv, drone fragments fell in the Hryshko National Botanical Garden.

So, Farage is a spokesperson for Trump and Trump is a spokesperson for Putin. It’s, quite ironically, like a game of Russian dolls. Except instead of dolls they’re ugly treacherous cunts.

U.S. Republican Senator Thom Tillis called Putin "a cancer&the greatest threat to democracy" in his lifetime: "So,when I tell that Putin is a liar,a murderer&a man responsible for ordering the systematic torture,kidnapping&rape of innocent civilians,believe me — because the evidence is mile high"

Nigel Farage is friends with fascists who do Nazi Salutes on stage. He is in no fit state to be anywhere near British politics.

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Remember a fake video in October that showed a fake poll worker destroying pro-Trump election ballots in Pennsylvania? There's now a copycat fake video with the same script about the German election, showing a fake poll worker destroying election ballots for the AfD in Hamburg.

Anyone who still believes that the UK is better off out of the EU is certifiable and that includes our government.

This is not an intellectual point, bur I wanted to state that I am frightened by the situation in the US and I am becoming even more anxious by the extent to which most people I know IRL (ie: not politics addicts) are entirely unmoved

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

This is what leadership in Europe looks like

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

Von der Leyen is giving a properly powerful and defiant speech at the Munich conference. Call to action and arms for the European States and says that Ukraine's accession to EU will be sped up. A definite broadside against US appeasement of Putin, too. She's knocking it out of the park.

Just booted my #Disney+ subscription. Fuck that noise. The reason I gave:

On Pierluigi Collina’s birthday, a reminder of when he graced the front of Pro Evo. Absolutely astonishing, really. It’s hard to imagine Football Manager putting Graham Poll on the cover.

This isn't a surprising but it is devastating. The great betrayal of Ukraine begins. We, in Europe, are in a place of danger. We all owe Ukraine & its people a debt of gratitude for its extraordinary courage. 😢

This is your daily reminder that it's a coup.

You know how in football a ref normally goes to check a corner if the ball is possibly a few mere milimetres outside the quadrant? Well, last night I went to a National League South game and this was where Enfield Town took all their corners from - they scored from this one 🤣

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private email server or Elon Musk giving full access to all government information to a nineteen-year old named Big Balls with ties to a child pornography collective known for its extortion techniques, both sides have played loose with security.

We didn't vote for Reform lite. We don't want Reform lite. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If the government really wanted to put people smugglers out of business, they would open safe routes for refugees.

Kendrick Lamar managed to piss off all the right people. Well done.

THE KENDRICK HALFTIME SHOW IS A BLACK THING… YOU WOULDN’T UNDERSTAND 😌

Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate Kendrick: actually

"The halftime show was boring." Look, you may not be familiar with the genius of Kendrick Lamar and couldn't quite hear the lyrics and don't know the backstory and the symbolism went over your head, but trust me when I say you'll want to read an analysis of it and rewatch. A true masterpiece.

The world is fucking batshit. Again.

The Daily Express has now corrected its false claim about "illegal migrants" in London. My @ipso.co.uk complaint against the Telegraph, for not publishing a full, front-page correction of their scaremongering, ignorant story, is with @ipso.co.uk. The Telegraph continues to lie about the facts.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.
