apnews.com/live/trump-m...: Rejecting Kings Since 1776'

6/4-6/2025 in LA may well be America's own Bastille Day.

Senate Democrats, it's time for you to arrange a quick but (I hope) graceful exit for Chuck Schumer. It's time for someone who will not kowtow to this "administration" but who will actually speak for the people.

Being served at the White House. #TACOtRump #TrumpAlwaysChickensOut

Well Sir Keir, what about Gaelic, Welsh, Cornish, and Irish, all of which were spoken in what is now the UK before Old English came to Britain, let alone modern English? You want to do away with them, too? #CelticSolidarity www.msn.com/en-us/news/w...

May the Fourth Be With You #StarWarsDay

English voters are clearly rejecting the two traditional UK parties in favour of other options, particulary those with grassroots/populist leanings, especially the Greens and Reform UK, plus the Lib-Dems #LocalElections2025

Happy Easter, EVERYONE!! 👇 Seemed. Appropriate. Today. 😎✨

2025 is the new 1776.

Thank you, Harvard! (Never thought I'd say that.)

Delighted that a unanimous US Supreme Court had the backbone to instruct tRump to "facilitate" the return of the illegally deported legal US resident. BUT, worried a constitutional crisis is about to happen after hearing that damn Pam Bondi saying he needs to stay where he is in El Salvador.

Well, well, well. The Texas Rangers finally figured out how to beat the Cubs at Wrigley.

THANK YOU, WISCONSIN! #muckfusk

😂😂

Elon Musk has become to the US GOP what Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks have become to the Texas GOP. They are totally running the show with their billions. When are the rest of us, the "We the People," going to use our votes to make their billions worthless?

One the eve of his resignation as Canada's prime minister, this might be -- just MIGHT be -- Justin Trudeau's best moment: www.msn.com/en-us/politi...

Where to start with things that tRump said that disgusted me last night. There was an awful lot, but the one time I reallly caught myself raising my voice was when he said the US is going to take Greenland, "one way or another." Just like the bully you are, DJT.

Last night we saw one of the worst shitshows I have ever seen in the US House chamber. tRump gave one of the most divisive speeches I ever heard from that lecturn. Democrats could have been the adults in the room but weren't. Sen. Slotkin's rebuttal was the only bright point. #stateoftheunion2025

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

LÀ NAOMH DAIBHIDH ’S e Là Naomh Daibhidh a th’ ann an-diugh. [St David’s Day. Today is St David’s Day, St David being the patron saint of Wales.] 🎧 Faidhle-Fuaime le Learn Gaelic: go.aws/2whFnJs #Gàidhlig #AmMàrt #Gaelic #LàNaomhDaibhidh #NaomhDaibhidh #AChuimrigh #Wales #StDavid #ScottishGaelic

Treason is defined in the US Constitution as "... levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort." What the occupant of the Oval Office did to Zelenskyy yesterday is as close to treason as I have seen anyone in that office commit. 1/3

The US Vice President lied about Scotland in an attempt to spread misinformation and hate. Scottish Green MSP @gillianmacmsp.bsky.social has demanded the US Embassy urgently correct the record.

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

Bigly

Some non-MAGATs voted for tRump because Biden didn't do enough to make life less expensive to live. I hope you enjoy your higher prices for avocados, Molson, car parts, petroleum products (and you should divest from these), and I could go on. t.ly/GP4TE

Reporter at press conference: Mr President, how do you know that the FAA's DEI poliices were the reason this air accident happeend? tRump: "Because I have common sense." Me: 🐃💩, Mr. tRump

We don't have a clue yet why the accident happened, and already tRump, Vance, and the secretaries of defense and transportation are already slinging mud at Obama and Biden over this. The secretary of transportation has been on the job less than 24 hours, BTW.

I am very highly disgusted with the way that the White House has politicized the tragic air accident in Washington, DC, last night. 1/2

Gotta love ppl who work in book shops

Rest in peace, President Carter.

Grades are in and final term reports are now filed. Planning to take it easy for a few days before visiting family for the holidays. Then it's nose to the grindstone to get my second doctor's thesis done before June.
