@lewisgoodall.com @lbc.co.uk You should have played James Cartlidge this. They can’t pretend it wasn’t their fault we are unprepared. They were warned. Tobias was defence committee chair and a Tory MP. Boris and Brexiteers were/are in the pockets of the 🇷🇺‘ians. youtu.be/_nAX25vIVyI?...

How about instead of profiling the “personalities” saying horrible things at far right conferences, we profile the people who paid to put on those conferences. Cmon the billionaires pushing this poison have names & faces.

Mavka Slavka 🧜‍♀️🌻 @mavkaslavka.bsky.social 💞 It's time to discard the surprise And begin widely opening your eyes. Apprentice and master Pursue your disaster To ignore it is really unwise. #RussiaIsATerroristState 😵‍💫🌏🌎🌍

Will you look at that? COSTCO didn't roll back DEI, and store traffic increased by: 5.8% on the week beginning January 27, 5.7% on the week beginning February 3, 4.6% on the week beginning February 10 Sources: Fortune and Retail Brew

A state visit for this deranged disgrace to American democracy? Hope we get the biggest demonstration ever against him. #r4today #BBCNews

Not using AirBandB now!

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

They want us to be afraid. They want us to hesitate. They want us to fear their next move. Fuck that shit. We are just getting started fighting.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

Bluesky now has 32 MILLION accounts with a very strong UK following. But still no official Labour Party account, or an account for PM Keir Starmer, directly listening to our views. ⁉️Is Labour listening at all⁉️

As America slides into civil war - the war of words will only go so far - Europe moves into cooperative action to fight Putin. Specifically and now the UK needs to see off the likes of these traitors...

It might be a cult.

Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

He nails it.

This smug traitor needs locking up

It’ll always break my heart that we could’ve had an extraordinary President with Kamala Harris and instead we have a disgusting rapist criminal traitor.

Bridget Phillipson chats to The Mirror on roll-out of free school breakfast clubs. She also says upcoming report by child poverty taskforce will consider “all social security measures and all aspects of Universal Credit” (which includes two-child benefit limit). www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

“When fascism begins to creep in around us…. Trusting your instincts, naming the threat and sharing your fears isn't just cathartic - it's empowering. It might even save your life.” No excuses. No equivocation. We call it what it is. And them what they are. Very good letters in @theguardian.com

My favourite part of the new Captain America movie is when he tries to extort Wakanda for $500b in Vibranium rights before "ironically" teaming up with Hydra to own the libs.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Bad energy

People i know who had a Tesla have sold them. Nobody wants a Tesla now

All I can say at this stage is… FINALLY! 💥

Starting to think the right’s mEmE KiNg WhO LeGaLiZeD CoMedY is actually just a whiny little bitch with a fragile ego.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Twitter, this morning

BREAKING: Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”

Ed Davey comments on Starmer talking to Trump #r4today Acknowledges the difficulty of his position but stresses the need to be firmly honest and to protect our interests. Managing to be both supportive *and* oppositional. A very welcome change from the twatty point-scoring we get from the Tories.

Sure hope so. (art by Dave Tarnowski)

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

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

Your moment of zen 🐺

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkable—dethroned Joe Rogan to become the country’s most popular podcast…

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Keir Starmer ...WHY can't we rejoin? What is stopping us from rejoining? Give us logical reasons why not.. DONT bring the public into it 63% of the population belive leaving the EU was a mistake #ToriesGone #HopeNotHate #RejoinEU #BrexitTheElephant

👇👏

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.
