‘Macron Macron Man I wanna be a Macron Man…’ Donald Trump finally getting fact checked live at the White House over his repeated horseshit about Europe getting its financial backing back from Ukraine and the US having donated funds as a grant You love to see it

The most striking result from yesterday’s German election #btw2025 🇩🇪: 🔹 35 years after reunification: The GDR is redrawn on this map. 🔹 The AfD won 45 out of 48 electoral districts in the East. 🔹 In some parts of Saxony, they came close to 50%! Why is this happening? Here’s my take 👇

The rise of the AfD, Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Nigel Farage and Reform, and every other Far Right party isn't 'organic' or a popular reaction. It is due to unlimited, non stop support from the Far Right Billionaire Media, and the many idiots who will vote for blatant lies.

The correct interpretation of the German election is that more than 80% of the population rejected the nazi AfD.

Looks like the FT is getting there..

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

Master of the deal, my gran's cock.

Nailed it 😂😂

There is only 1 way to beat the Farages & Trumps of this world & that is to expose them for what they are, & by demonstrating to the country – & the world – that there is a better way. @bremaininspain.com @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @stellacreasy.bsky.social yorkshirebylines.co.uk/politics/ope...

I shared quotes from Starmer's speech last night after the Paris gathering, but here is the full video After speaking with Ukraine on Friday & European leaders yesterday, he will take proposals for lasting peace to a meeting Trump later this week, before going on to meet European leaders again.

Wages rose by more than expected in the latest figures: 6.0% compared to an expectation of 5.9%. Unemployment remained static at 4.4%, despite expectations of an increase to 4.5%. This is good news, especially to the backdrop of businesses claiming the October budget would lead to job losses. 1/2

Reform UK's plans to increase taxes and make people pay more for their energy bills goes down like a tripe cake and an axe wielding horror clown at an eight year old's birthday party. www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/view...

Trump plan to enslave Ukraine. Demands $500bn “payback”, wants control of “mineral resources, oil and gas, ports, other infrastructure" in perpetuity, control economy. Ukraine must pay US before feeding its people. No penalty on Russia for the invasion. Politicians or gangsters? archive.ph/0El3f

Some of Tennant's jokes about Trump were edited out of the BBC's broadcast on Sunday evening.

"Nothing about Vance’s speech could be described as “useful”. That leaves only one word left."

can't decide if they are knowingly trying to reduce US influence abroad or if they're just so averse to academic language that they can't read between the lines of the program titles. are they confused that they don't see programs titled like "spies" & "bribes" & so on lol

@desmog.bsky.social "ARC is backed by the UAE-based investment firm Legatum Group & millionaire Paul Marshall, of..GB News. Marshall claims Britain is “going bust” by net zero..Marshall’s hedge fund held £1.8 mil in fossil.companies – incl. Chevron, Shell, Equinor" www.desmog.com/2025/02/16/l...

An Attorney General prioritising fidelity to law and principle, instead of chasing cheap headlines with bogus and exploitative legal applications, is a welcome change.

"In the UK, Musk is an open supporter of Reform, if not so much a fan of Nigel Farage. This American offensive support of far-right parties is a communality they have with Russia. It is their common ground and shared crusade to dismantle democracy and weaken Western societies." #Democracy #Europe

The Gulf of Intelligence

An updated version of a 1940 David Low cartoon depicts Trump and Putin descending upon Kyiv to impose "peace" talks against the will of the Ukrainian government

A modern update of an 1894 political cartoon depicts Elon Musk squeezing the American people for the benefit of his oligarch friends, just as George Pullman exploited his workers through low wages and high rent.

I want to point out something important about measles. When you search for images, white people with readily apparent rashes almost always come up. For people of color, the rash may be less red and harder to see. It can be purple, grey, or white in color, or it can appear as a darker brown rash.

The US and Europe are no longer allies. Following Vance’s disastrous speech pulling the plug on US-Europe shared values and respect, there is no-one senior in the Musk-Trump govt to serve as a friendly & trusted link with Europe. Here’s my TikTok video just out on it —> vm.tiktok.com/ZNd1kXqqj/

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

This spot on 👇🏻 #lfc

The MP for Great Yarmouth’s register of interests shows that he earned a whopping £4,699 in January by spending five hours posting on Elon Musk’s social media platform.

The removal of a transgender reference from the National Park Service’s Stonewall website wasn’t done by NPS staff. Elon, care to elaborate?

Just endured every excruciating minute of this. With Trump sitting there, the kid wandering around, Musk gives a crash course in his theory of democracy that would embarrass a semi-literate stoner. These are fools in charge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAuT...

Supressing a woman’s right to vote. They’re just a white Christian version of the Taliban.

Trump claimed that DOGE has uncovered billions in “fraud, waste, and abuse.” However, no evidence has been provided, and all public fraud claims from both Elon Musk and Trump have been debunked as false.

Every single one of those Tractors the farmers are driving through London is worth more than the average person owns in TOTAL. And they are saying they are too poor to pay any tax.

Have a look at the map below and call or write your elected representatives about how much money your state stands to lose with the NIH’s IDC rate cap at 15%. For Arizona, it’s $43,881,528. That kind of cheddar might just wake up a few Republicans.

Serious question, because this is where we’re headed… Who’s going to hold Donald Trump and Elon Musk accountable if he defies court rulings? Who’s going to stop him?

There's now a FOURTH plane crash on Sean Duffy's watch. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

The first heat pump in the UK was installed in Norwich in 1945 but today only 1% of UK households currently use heat pumps. In fact, the UK has just 412 heat pumps per 100,000 people compared to the European average of 3,068. The problem? A huge public knowledge gap about heat pumps in the UK.

A good list of companies to boycott

Donald Trump has spent more than 60% of his Presidency at Mar-a-Lago. But he signed an order saying all Federal Employees are banned from working at home.

Adolf Hitler had several half baked ideas to relocate the Jews including moving them all to Madagascar. In the end he decided to kill them all. We are on the half baked ideas for Palestinians right now.
