Please share this fact sheet about Ukraine with anyone who needs it.

Kevin De Bruyne is finished at the top level. Sad to watch. Maybe it’s best for his legacy he sees this season out on the bench.

That’s such a great Liverpool goal. They might well win the title by April. This is the Mo Salah season.

BBC News on hour reporting straight that Trump has got rid of military chiefs because ‘they’re too mired in woke culture’ 🤯🤯🤯 Traditional liberal democratic media still hasn’t learned how to report on authoritarians, even now when it’s almost too late

When right-wing UK commentators and politicians - most of whom have never worked in a start-up - lionise start-up culture, this is what they mean. They like talk of being agile and innovative, but what they really want is a return to Victorian labour relations when you could treat staff like shit.

Musk just amplified a leader of Germany’s far-right AfD, who called the country’s Holocaust memorial a “monument of shame,” demanded a “180-degree turn” in how Germany remembers Nazi crimes & was convicted for using a Nazi slogan Let’s hope the people of 🇩🇪will choose wisely in tomorrow’s election

I don’t understand why there isn’t already a statue of Jarrod Bowen. Guys. We need to build a statue of Jarrod Bowen. I want to sit in the Jarrod Bowen stand. I’d support the name change to Jarrod Bowen FC. LONG LIVE KING JARROD.

Well that was pretty superb wasn’t it? Graham Potter has landed.

Listening on @siriusxmfc.bsky.social to @thomasjrennie.bsky.social call a crazy game. But the pockets idea is still not a good one Tom. Stick to the fa cup all in January.

Another week stuck on 27 points. Another loss incoming. Happy Saturday football fans!

Hey everybody. Just spoke with the legend Tony Meola… he suffered a heart attack last night. He’s in good spirits and doctors say he’ll be okay. He thanks everyone for the birthday wishes too His biggest message, he wants to stress to us all: “Go get frequent check ups.” ❤️💪🏼

Weird that the unelected drug-crazed Nazi billionaire is not winning hearts and minds

Lying conmen like Farage should never be in public office If you hate government and hate the country you shouldn’t be in the government of the country.

Once more, Farage is claiming that he stood up in the European Parliament in early 2014 and predicted the Ukraine war. In fact, he stood up in September 2014, AFTER the annexation of Crimea, and blamed Europe for Putin's actions. I kept the receipts. Listen here 👇🏽 open.spotify.com/episode/77cz...

Can Tom?!? Yes, yes he can….

And to think just four days ago, after lecturing the Europeans on free speech, JD Vance was in my Twitter replies lecturing me about free speech too. Oh the shamelessness! This is who they are:

Is this the end of the Guardiola era? Would Kevin De Bruyne be a good signing for MLS? Can Tom get drunk on 0.5% lager? This week’s episode is here! With @briandunseth.bsky.social. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/w...

I posted this was a lie right after Musk said it. This is the Commander of the ISS. Musk responded to this post by throwing a temper tantrum and calling for ISS to be defunded.

Nigel Farage says he will always put "country" first. Here's a reminder of which country he's talking about.

West Ham desperately needed a striker in November. Then again in January. Today, Graham Potter says Ferguson can’t start at the weekend as he won’t be fit enough. He’s on a 14 game loan spell. Truly idiotic stuff.

This is real. Unbelievable but real.

After everything that Zelenskyy and Ukraine have been through, for the US President to say this, the sense of betrayal must be incalculable. Literal Russian propaganda used against him. Just despicable, disgusting stuff. We should all be terrified of this appeasement.

This is absolutely disgusting.

Trump trashes Zelensky as a dictator. Still has never said a negative word about Putin. Idk whether Europe/Ukraine has figured this out yet - but you are on your own. You have no friend in the current US govt & Republicans in Congress who said they supported you will say nothing.

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

I see some of the mainstream Tories are starting to wake up to what they've spent the last decade incubating. Maybe they'll understand the need for strict red lines and a cordon sanitaire on this shite - and that you need to punch back hard, rather than indulge it.

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

Santiago Giménez was ready to go at Milan. Fit, energetic and scoring goals immediately. That’s what you do in the January transfer window. You don’t loan a striker who has been injured for a year, who you have to integrate slowly. It’s a 10-15 game burst that’s required.

It would be great if someone could come forward to start defending good government, good governance, strong regulations and equitable taxation. You know, liberal democracy. Whenever you’re ready.

Why have West Ham brought in an injured striker on loan?

West Ham have actually somehow got worse under Graham Potter. He looks completely out of his depth. That team selection was a joke, and he froze during that first half. Anyone who thinks they’ll get any more points this season hasn’t been paying attention.

Worst performance of the season from West Ham was against Crystal Palace. Second worst performance was what we’ve just seen against Brentford. Both under Graham Potter.

Vance was right on just one thing: Europe lacks a clear positive vision of what it wants to defend. The answer must be "the things Vance rejects": truth, science, liberal democracy, rule of law, resisting dictators, climate action. It will have to do that without, & sometimes against, the US Govt.

I see another team is showing Chelsea up. Yet West Ham fans are saying last Monday was a good performance when they lost from being 0-1 up at half time. They need to show they can actually win a game of football. Couldn’t beat an egg.

Not exaggerating when I say that the path back is going to be built on people in positions of influence regaining their sense of self-respect. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

I'd say the biggest forces "undermining our nation from within" are the fake patriots loudly cheering on these attacks on our country by a hostile foreign government

There's something so low-rent about Vance at Munich that it's hard for Europe to feel attacked in the manner he intends. These guys are visibly not up to the task they think they've set themselves. I'd worry about their chaos more than their ideology.

I swear West Ham have not had one player in form all season.

Quite literally, while JD Vance was over here lecturing our entire continent about freedom of speech? 😂🤣😂🤣 You could not make this shit up.

One of many things that anger me about our media is that these are treated as serious people on free speech. They are currently supporting a presidency that has defunded research for using words they don't like, deleted words on web pages, and sues endlessly. They're liars, treat them like it.

Elon Musk and DOGE have failed to cut spending despite creating massive chaos in the federal government, according to a review of official data by The Economist. In fact, spending might actually be up since Trump took office.

People say that AI is just a bunch of old soulless slop that is only damaging the world of art and beyond. Oh yeah? What about this incredible birthday card I received? Makes it all worth it now huh?
