Watching that White House horror show today it's easy to think 'Hey, maybe we've become too accustomed to polite diplomacy & 'the system'? Maybe a new approach will get results?' No. People being courteous, and kind, & respectful & not bullies. That's the only way I want it done. #Trump #Zelensky

Utah passes bill banning trans students from dorms, dressing rooms etc. Cruelty and humiliation is the point. Hurting people. Have you noticed it’s all the religious backward states? www.advocate.com/utah/utah-an...

I'm not one for bitching about players, esp. after the last 3 years but how did we get that goalie purchase so wrong? Palmer's performance today really brought that home. #itfc

Finished yet another re-read of Flannery O'Connor's awesome 'Wise Blood' (1952!) & was struck by the Maga-ness of this passage. It's on the money. #MAGA #Trump #elonmusk

Isaac Herzog's on #BBCLauraK this morning just rejected as false anything he didn't want to hear. Gaslighting on an industrial scale.

#mcfc players clamouring for yellow cards & penalty awards against bleeding #leytonorient is an unedifying sight. #facup

Oops 😬

“I think the strategy here is: ‘Well, we’re just going to do it and dare somebody to stop us, and by the time they stop us, we’ll have destroyed it” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Freudian slip in the #eadt today? #itfc #Premierleague

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

More #bbc 'both sides' reportage. Every survey suggests support for #Brexit has waned but the Beeb of course can't show that.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyekyzvkx9o

Left: Zia Yusuf, "We need a total bonfire of all of the red tape that stops the UK from building.. That's what Reform will do" Right: Grenfell Tower on fire as builders ignored 'red tape' safety regulations to cut costs, make profits #BBCQT

Sky News CONTINUING to refer to the chancellor as ‘Rachel from Accounts’, would they have referred to a male chancellor by an insulting nickname? Of course not. It’s misogynistic and they’re repeating it.

Another negative for #labour. Where did our balls go? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Schiff: "When Mike Johnson's state was hit by Katrina, I fought to get aid ... California has given more to the recovery of other states than any other state in the union. You do not want to go down this road."
