šŸ§µCensor, purge, defund - how Trump is following the authoritarian playbook on science & universities. This isn't chaos - it's deliberate & well-established methods. I've mapped 40 actions into 3 categories covering attacks on science, attacks on universities and international collaboration. 1/16

Add Australia to the list of countries where Tesla sales are sliding www.businessinsider.com/tesla-sales-...

Funny....All of a sudden, no one's performing arbitrary sex-change operations on unexpecting grade-schoolers anymore.

And watch the incompetently engineered, flaming SpaceX rocket debris fill the sky like the most expensive fireworks in history.

Wow. Employees at the Social Security Administration were informed on Thursday that new rules forbid them from accessing ā€œgeneral newsā€ websites, including those that have been at the forefront of the reporting on Elon Muskā€™s DOGE www.wired.com/story/social...

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about ā€œtwo-tier sentencingā€, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of ā€œtwo-tier Keirā€. The man is a fraud.

Iā€™m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineā€™s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Neroā€™s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

No, let him come. Everybody, pies at the ready!

Donā€™t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

Wise manā€¦

Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

Delighted to see my book Art Shaped riding high again in the Amazon 'craft book' chart, a full 2 years after its release. It's tough to promote a book against quality competition when you're creating all of the publicity yourself, and working 7 days a week! šŸ˜ @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

More of this energy everywhere please!

If youā€™re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you havenā€™t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

No, but if youā€™re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

šŸšØNEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Richard Madeley compared Palestine to Nazi Germany, and then said that all the children killed were collateral damage of an essential invasion. RT if him and his hideous views need to be banned from UK TV. (Richard Madeley in October 2023.)

āš”ļø'No point trying to negotiate' with Putin, Yulia Navalnaya says. "Even if you decided to negotiate with Putin, just remember he will lie," Navalnaya, widow of late Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, said at the Munich Security Conference two days before the anniversary of her husband's death.

Ex-NATO Commander tells me on Channel 4 News Europe doesnā€™t have time to build a pan-European army - saying EU/UK need to act with greater urgency.

Yet again, if these were climate protestors, there'd have been multiple arrests, with some facing years in jail for "public nuisance". But farmers can block the road and drown out the Prime Minister and the police won't touch them. The real #TwoTierPolicing

Tossed away like trashā€”thatā€™s the harsh reality of the badger cull. Thousands of innocent badgers are needlessly slaughtered in a failed attempt to control TB. This cruelty has to end. āœļø Sign the petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

ā€œThis is the moment for Starmer to re-engage with the EU. On Feb 3 the PM will attend his first informal summit with other šŸ‡ŖšŸ‡ŗ leaders in Brusselsā€¦and yet his approach is marked by a plodding cautiousnessā€ www.economist.com/leaders/2025...

Starmer has a huge opportunity. The UK must be a beacon of democracy, evidence led policy, rule of law, science, reliable news, toleration and moderation in a world of extremes. Itā€™s his for the taking.

To the crowds cheering Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Agreement: Do you think you live on a different planet, which climate breakdown does not affect? Do you imagine only greens and progressives will be harmed by Earth systems collapse? Do you believe you can win an argument with physics?

RFK, Jr. claimed his anti-vax work was a labor of love that cost him friendships. He said heā€™d never made money from it. But now he admits he made (checks notes) $1.2 million from it. How do you ā€œforgetā€ about that much money?

In early 2020, a pandemic was spreading. The UKā€™s PM went on a 10 day half-term holiday during which he was uncontactable and the government went into panic mode, focusing, as Hancock related to the COVID enquiry, on buying enough body bags. 1/8

7 years ago today, my beloved Dad succumbed to metastatic cancer, after a year of exemplary NHS oncological & palliative care. It breaks my heart that so many patients today are denied such care because the NHS has been neglected so atrociously. Please @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social, rebuild it.

I hope the Senate hears this important message.

So hereā€™s the update. The billionaire owner of the Guardian preparing to get rid of a core part of the news org + 100 journalists. If youā€™re a Guardian or Observer reader, please share this. The need for a strong, free & independent press couldnā€™t be greater. Yet, here it is.

www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis... This excellent, informative and uplifting programme should be shown much more widely - please watch and share. The presenter also gives straightforward advice on where simple lifestyle changes can make a difference.

Undercover footage shows a distressed fox caught in a snare on the Duke of Westminsterā€™s Eaton Estate. Activists saved the fox, but countless snares remain on this 11,000-acre estate. Snares are barbaric, indiscriminate traps that harm wildlife!

We hate asking for followers. But we hate fox hunting even more. Itā€™s why we will never be ashamed to ask for support here on BlueSky. Because the more of us there are the faster we can end this sick pastime. Repost and follow @protectthewild.bsky.social if you stand with us! šŸ¦Š
