Han Christian Anderson foresaw what’s happening in America. As the country appears to be recession bound we await to hear that one clear voice “ the Orange King is economically naked” #trump #amercanrecession

Trump declares a national emergency on electricity and says Canada WILL become 51st state

President Trump said in a Truth Social post that he would impose an additional 25% tariff on steel and aluminum from Canada, doubling the levies he had planned.

Seems like a good time to re-up our guest post from yesterday by Canada's former PM and defence secretary Kim Campbell on how her country is dealing with the US turning on them. samf.substack.com/p/oh-canada-...

As we continue our race to the bottom, re-posting the academic EVIDENCE on the problems with deportations, a reading list @leoniefelicitas.bsky.social, Laura Lambert, Judith Altrogge & I prepared last year for the @abi-freiburg.bsky.social : www.arnold-bergstraesser.de/en/news/read...

President Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened a sharp escalation in the budding trade war with Canada in retaliation for Ontario’s export surcharge on US electricity.

Anderson and Hatton hit the headlines again. Both charged with bribery. We will see what develops !#liverpool ex- councillors

Good morning. Today's mood. #Photography #Today #Chicago #pissedoff

Just saying the quiet part out loud

JUST IN: Democratic Rep. Al Green of Texas was removed from the House chamber for his protests during President Trump's speech. cnn.it/41tNrSi

Trump pauses aid to Ukraine and is easing sanctions on Russia. I think it's safe to say whose side he's on. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/trump-...

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Wake up, Keir. Smell the coffee, Emmanuel. Pay attention, Friedrich. Watch the press conference in the Oval Office again and again until you grasp what is unfolding before your eyes | ✍️matthewsyed

I’ve said it once before, but it bears repeating now…

It is time to end the special relationship with Trump. We stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦 centralbylines.co.uk/opinion/it-i...

Complete soccer education watching Real Madrid tonight.brilliant v Man City. #realmsdrid

Jeez. Trump actually just said it. He actually just said that Ukraine shouldn't have started this war! He’s actually siding with a crazed, murderous dictator

Unapologetically. ✊🇪🇺

Britain must unify with Europe as Trump has allied USA with Russia. Isolation from allies would be crazy. The generation who fought ww2 are nearly gone. Time to remember their valour !

I know it’s satire, but I’m inclined to believe he really thinks there is one.

Resisting comes in all forms. Here is a very creative one starting to pop up.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

I'm neither a citizen of the UK nor the EU, but I've lived and been educated in both. Though I'm an expat American who's called Asia home for many years, I wholeheartedly support Dr. Galsworthy, chair of @europeanmovement.co.uk, in the bid for a stronger, more united Europe. Time is of the essence

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

As a measles outbreak causes dozens of illnesses in West Texas, it’s important to know how to identify signs of the illness. It can cause serious complications – such as blindness, pneumonia or encephalitis, swelling of the brain – and even turn deadly, especially in children younger than 5.

& Who wins? Not Ukraine... The American Wolf and the Russian Wolf, each growling about ‘peace,’ each sinking its teeth into Ukraine. Strangely, neither seems inclined to ask the lamb what it wants. #SlavUkraine #UkraineWar

"There will come a moment where the West has to say to Donald Trump, sorry, you're just spouting what Putin thinks, and we can't allow this to happen." But when will that be? articles.globalplayer.com/2GXqC8zftyQ7...

"We need a European Defence Union, with the UK involved" says @europeanmovement.co.uk CEO and former Defence Minister Sir Nick Harvey www.europeanmovement.co.uk/defending_uk...

It’s a coup. It’s a strategic alliance with Putin. It’s the end of the post-war international order. It’s the triumph of lies over truth and in Putin’s case, evil over good. We are through the looking glass & we all now have to decide who we are & what we stand for

A Trump shill on Newsnight claims there are more people in prison in UK jails for freedom of speech violations than in Putin’s Russia. These people are radicalised, insane, plain stupid or some combination of all three.

The British people will support Ukraine Trump and Putin are despised

Fanta Dons new hair is a great improvement on the previous hair piece !

Calling Zelensky a “Dictator” must be where the line is drawn says Ed Davey “It is my sincere hope that the whole political spectrum in the United Kingdom will speak with one voice in opposition to Trump’s lies” 👏
