IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! 🤣🤣🤣 The IEA is denying that they ever backed Brexit!!! Me vs Reem Ibrahim on BBC5Live The Institute of Economic Affairs can see the public has turned against Brexit so much that they're re-writing history to avoid the blame!

As a cancer ‘survivor’ who fought against Brexit, this just makes me seethe. I’d like to see Farage and Johnson asked about this by @vicderbyshire.bsky.social! www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Find your rhythm. And ignore the judgment of others while you’re at it. 🥰

@maddow.msnbc.com My dad is 98, WWII USNavy Veteran. Showed up for democracy in San Diego today. "I fought for it once, I'll fight for it again!" 💙🇺🇸💙 THIS is what democracy looks like!!!!

Oh look, similar issues in England when profit-taking drives health care delivery

We just wanted to keep you all updated estimates are now approaching 4 million. Incredible job pulling this off on a holiday weekend! It was tough to get accurate counts today because small towns showed up in force. Some states had record-breaking turnout we didn’t expect this includes

Very creative, San Francisco! 8647 ✊

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

Right Now, most of the American can relate to this message from the 90's.

Thou shalt march on Washington by the millions and not leave until The Mad King Donald is deposed!

Loving this…. Retired Harvard Law professor Laurence Tribe on his institution standing firm in the face of President Donald Trump's efforts to shake it down.

So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

My friends, what the Trump regime has unleashed on America is intolerable. It is time — beyond time — for a national civic uprising. We must take action. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-bigger-threat-to-free-speech-than

I'm thinking about how tonight was probably the first time Kilmar Abrego Garcia learned that millions of people care about him - the first time he learned that the United States Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring him home. I'm thinking what it must mean for him to know, right now, that he isn't alone.

Please help @chrisgpackham.bsky.social end driven grouse shooting and its nature-killing gamekeeping practices.

Folding like origami is unquestionably the right move when you have a strong hand but forgot the rules, are holding the cards facing out, handed two to your opponent, lit your pants on fire, called your wife by her sister's name, and just realised raising would require wagering your kidney.
