A decent chunk of the US economy is just unfairly incarcerating Black people and then charging them. Usually, Black folk get caught up during traffic stops. This is why we get pulled over so much more often than white people.🤯 During covid, so many people stopped driving, the gravy train stopped.

🚨MSNBC applauded Joy Reid for her NCAA award & then fired her days later to bend the knee and kiss the ring of Donald Trump & MUSK. I encourage EVERYONE to find Independent media like Meidas Touch who TELL THE TRUTH!

Europe has a solution for Starlink, it is faster and the quality is better. The IRIS 2 program. IRIS will make Starlink obsolete and provide permanent global coverage. The US, and especially Musk, are not needed. #IRIS #EU youtu.be/V-SXNVeNby0

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

I had a glimmer of admiration for Lavrov and his mate at that meeting with the Yanks. They kept straight, serious faces, despite the urge to laugh themselves to a stand-still when they were listening to the US give away all their aces in the hole _before_ negotiations even began.

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 great stitch-up begins in Riyadh today, as the US government seeks to hand eastern Ukraine, bound and gagged, to Putin. This, as Trump knows and wants, will encourage Putin to threaten and destabilise the rest of Europe. Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.

We all know that the Trump administration has caused an unquantifiable amount of chaos and harm already. But hoo boy Tom Homan calling AOC dumb just brought out a whole new wave of anger from me. Damn you, Homan and your ilk. Damn your racism and your misogyny. Damn your hate.

Honestly: just imagine. And imagine the implication for Ukraine. For all our miserabilism and self-deprecation, British actions currently matter a great deal, especially now that America is in retreat.

Excellent description of today’s MAGA-Republican Party. They’re not capable of empathy or compassion. It’s all about the cruelty with them. They give themselves tax breaks while simultaneously cutting key benefits for the American people. It’s shameful and it needs to end.

This is a good time to remind everyone that this administration hasn't done anything for anyone. It has literally only taken away things we've already paid for and fired and sued people. Oh and the quid pro quo with Adams. That's the extent of what they have done. Kinda nuts.

As an EU member, Britain could be the bridge between Europe and the US. On its own, and with Trump in power, it must choose. Because you can’t side with this America. You can’t excuse its tyranny. You can’t endorse its cruelty. You can’t agree to its terms. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

It is very simple. There is no nuance here. If you are defending or in the Donald Trump camp with regards to Ukraine. You are on the side of dictators, fascists and Neo Nazis. You are going against your own country. Defending Ukraine 🇺🇦 is defending Britain. 🇬🇧

This shit doesn’t happen in France and I’ll tell you why: the rich went too far once and they cut all their heads off and now, when those in power fuck workers over, the French stop working. Don’t forget your real power Americans. They don’t let you have unions for a reason.
