Melon: time to drop the really big bomb - was Starlink used to manipulate the 2024 election?

In light of all of this stuff coming out on Musk, this would be a good time for people around the country to read my op-ed I wrote about him a while back that was published by the Kansas City Star. www.kansascity.com/opinion/read...

Nigel Farage says abortion laws are “utterly ludicrous.” MPs are watching. We have days to show them: the public backs abortion rights. Join me and sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/de...

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg GRANTS class certification for the people held at CECOT and gives the government ONE WEEK to explain how they're going to facilitate due process for EVERYONE sent there under the Alien Enemies Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Hoping to hell, they can enforce this ruling

This is a real NYT headline

Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?

Very strange that all the press are using lovely smiley photos of Paul Doyle rather than the traditional brutal police mugshots.

Has Farage attempted to "I had no idea who he was" his way out of this photo yet?

Thou shalt not tie up children in zip ties and then deport them, for that maketh thou a MONSTER. A MONSTER! THE PEOPLE DOING ZIPTYING CHILDREN ARE MONSTERS!

THANK YOU!!!

If I had to write ‘How They Broke Britain’ all over again, Nick Clegg would get at least a chapter. An agent of immeasurable harm.

Fascinating @rostaylor.bsky.social piece on the politics of teeth. It won't surprise you to learn that dentistry is another example of perpetual British policy fuck-up open.substack.com/pub/rostaylo...

Tomorrow is Rümeysa Öztürk’s habeas corpus hearing in federal court in Vermont. At the same time, nearly 1,000 other women she was detained with in Louisiana remain in intolerable conditions. ICE has yet to answer my inquiries. I'll keep pushing.

In St. Louis, the sirens to warn people of a tornado threat were not activated by the City Emergency Management Agency before a deadly tornado hit on Friday, and a backup to activate the mechanism that is operated by the Fire Department was broken.

Hidden in the GOP Tax scam is a provision to take away the tax on..... gun silencers. #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Over 80 editors from leading European news outlets signed a petition calling for the scrapping of legislation in Hungary that aims to restrict foreign-funded media and rights groups, a step critics say is meant to stifle criticism of the government. Thank you for your support!

Here’s an idea: Stop acting like the Gestapo.

The Felon is only president to the billionaires.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.

Richard Littlejohn mostly lives in a gated mansion in Florida. Andrew Neil mostly lives in Grasse in the South of France.

Priti Patel cannot be trusted on any matters pertaining to Israel. Never forget: www.theguardian.com/politics/201...

I can see this is going to be a day where the task of sifting through piles and piles of garbage to find actual news that matters to normal people is going to be extremely difficult.

At 1:34 AM Trump called for DOJ to investigate Kamala Harris, Beyoncé, Springsteen, Oprah and others for crimes, he then made another deranged post about it at 9:11 AM, and the lead story of the day on MSNBC and CNN continues to be Joe Biden in 2023.

"Trump, the self-styled alpha male, is in reality the weakest kind of leader – a man for whom every slight is a mortal wound, every criticism an unforgivable sin.” He's a snowflake. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-worlds...

Until a few years ago, I thought the line “how do you solve a problem like Maria” in The Sound of Music was asked in admiration of Maria’s unique problem-solving rather than identifying *her* as a problem to be solved.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Quote of the year?

1:34 a.m — Mr criminal himself, who hasn’t done anything legal ever and is currently doing every illegal thing imaginable to hurt the entire population, is up crying for another ridiculous investigation of someone else because he’s butt hurt nobody likes him because he’s nothing but a piece of shit

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.
