@inthespotlight755.bsky.social Ahem… (Guardian)

Amazing that without even mentioning a name, EVERYONE knows exactly who it's referencing.

Crow with wild garlic. Not a recipe 🙄😂

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

Jeez. A clip has emerged of Donald Trump in the Oval Office discussing how people made money in the recent market fluctuations as a result of his tariffs. "He made two-and-a-half billion today, and he made nine hundred million, that's not bad!"

Morning Flutterbies! Fabulous advice!

No, you didn't lose money, Trump just robbed you.

I cannot remind Americans about this enough, you had a revolution because you didn't want to pay Tariffs on Tea.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

World markets won a reprieve after three days of heavy selling that wiped trillions of dollars off the value of shares, but the mood was cautious with a focus on whether Washington might negotiate on some of its aggressive tariffs reut.rs/3EbBlWp

We’re joining forces with 58 of our supporters in a High Court legal action against Nigel Farage’s far right Reform UK. They claim to be the voice of the people, but when people talk to them they’re not listening. What are they doing with people’s data? goodlaw.social/t0jq

Good Morning Beginning our arty day with Nicholas Hely Hutchinson.

He’s a disgusting tyrant. Why is he still here? We’re dealing with a usurper. Folks, he works for us. And he’s off the chain. He’s a rabid dog. Why aren’t we stopping him with force? He isn’t allowed to behave like a thug and be potus. We aren’t thugs here. He doesn’t represent us.

Two news stories. TODAY. The world no longer trusts the United States to safeguard its citizens.
