If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

This almost certainly has nothing to do with debilitating long-term consequences caused by the incurable virus pandemic the world continues to ignore... '...claimant levels were rising to unsustainable levels... reached a record high of 3.7m, up from 2.05m in 2019...' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

My dad during lunch on Father's Day: "I bet a guy like that is hiding in a cornfield somewhere" 6 hours later, Boelter was caught in a god damn corn field.

Facing up to an endless stream of awful news can be anxiety-inducing. @stefanstern.bsky.social tells us what we can do about it. www.prospectmagazine...

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

So much of our politics is men farting excessively after eating all the venison and profiteroles and then blaming the smell on people who aren’t even in the room

What we’re witnessing is the result of Israel acting with impunity. It is committing genocide in Gaza, ethnic cleansing in the West Bank & has bombed Lebanon, Syria, Yemen & Iran without any accountability. The UK must end ALL arms sales, sanction Israel & expel its ambassador.

Picking radishes is no easy task. Efrén spends 8-10 hrs/day on his knees, picking and sorting the radishes into small bunches to fill dozens of crates a day in CA's Ventura County. He's proud to have worked in America's fields for 49 years. #WeFeedYou

BREAKING: Kendall just confirmed DWP cuts to disabled people's benefits will not be delayed In another move where wretched Liz Kendall exposed herself, she's confirmed that there is no stopping DWP cuts to disabled people's benefits - despite the backlash www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Looking at my posts there are too many words, take a cat

Met Police putting Israeli apartheid tanks on our streets is just part of its complicity with war crimes In total, the Met Police has ordered 18 SandCats, which Israeli occupation forces have long tested on Palestinians. So yes, the Met Police is funding genocide. www.thecanary.co/global/world...

Keir Starmer just got schooled over nationalising water companies Starmer got his ass handed to him over a legal provision that would mean water companies pay us for their failures if they were nationalised www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

So to no fault of momb, momb's bike is totaled. Both breaks are stripped and the back one now only works 30% which is dangerous, and the front tire bent accidentally? So... We're raising money to get them an expensive, nice bike at Kent Cycle. gofund.me/3e15ac15

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

good morning friends 💚✨

The coverup is coming to fruition

Every person aboard the Madleen is a hero. The genocidal Israeli state's attack on unarmed activists aboard a UK-flagged vessel delivering aid to Gaza is a flagrant breach of international law. The UK must sanction Israel, end all arms & surveillance, & expel its ambassador.

he's mad as hell i haven't gone to bed yet

When I called out UK complicity in the genocide in Gaza, Wes Streeting called it “cheap”. Now he calls it a “horror show” — as if Britain isn’t enabling Israeli genocide with arms and surveillance. A parlour game to him. A “cheap” performance while Palestinians are massacred.
