I fear for future generations of Americans as #China continues to develop soft global power while #Trump shuts down #USAID, alienates US allies and generally withdraws into a protectionist country.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

So #POTUS, why would #Starmer or #Macron have negotiated with #Putin? Did #Churchill or #Roosevelt negotiate with Hitler when millions were dying - or did they just know the axis of evil had to be defeated?

How about #Trump renaming a galaxy after himself that can be reached by one of #Elons spaceships?

It's all right, order will be restored in 2029. It's going to be a long four years though for most of planet earth's inhabitants. ( He wouldn't change It to planet Trump.....would he?)

If you want to check how gloomy and tainted the #British news is, look at how often they report large international sales orders (nothing). Then look at how intensely they report redundancies. We need balanced reporting to lift people's spirits. #BBCnews #ITVNews #skynews

When a man kills a women, it is branded as domestic abuse, sexually motivated or misogyny. When a women kills a man it is reported as she was driven to do it. Why - as many men are tormented by women as women by men. I'm not condoning it but domestic abuse can work both ways. #desertislanddiscs

Following #Trumps decision that it is ok for #Russia to annex parts of #Ukraine that were in the USSR, I'm wondering if he will offer similar generosity in handing New Mexico back to the Mexicans - or Alaska back to the Russians. #Realitycheck

@skynewsrss.bsky.social has Trevor Phillips considered that #Putin may be an ailing man and we know very little about who his successor would be. We know who #Trump's successor is if he has health issues and it doesn't bear thinking about.

On #Trump's headstone will be the words "He wanted to create a new world order". We will have to wait 4 years to see what the second paragraph says. #Musk of course will be blasted into space to another world and invincibility.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Never did I think that I would see a #NATO country having to increase #defensespending due to #US aggression. Yet #Denmark is increasing procurement by €2B to protect #Greenland.

Fraudien slip - I meant to type #Trump in the search engine and found that I had typed in #Putin

Should #Reform UK change its name to Reform 51st?

Can you imagine if the 2nd World War in #Europe had been ended by negotiations between China and Germany? That is effectively what #Trump is proposing with America leading negotiations as he roughshods over the people of #Ukraine. #BBC

Phrases you don't hear anymore. " I haven't got any change, have you got something smaller."

#BP should be ashamed of itself calling the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America in its annual report so that it doesn't jeopardise its drilling licences. Maybe it should change its name from BP to AP...that would appease #Trump. #BBCnews

Dear Mr #Farage. VAT is a tax after tax. Council tax is a tax after taxable income. Are you proposing to get rid of them like #Inheritancetax? #BBC

@gmb nice to see that the weather presenter and weather map are colour coordinated for the Scotland v Ireland rugby match this weekend!

A bit of a contradiction in #Trump policies. He wants to return US immigrants to their home state but doesn't want #Palestinians to return to their homeland. #POTUS #BBC

Have the #Israelis forgotten what it was like to be without a homeland? #Palestine

In this new #Trump Mediterranean resort, who is going to compensate the #Palestinian landowners for the loss of their land, assuming the records haven't been destroyed by the Israelis. #BBCnews #skynews

#Trump has been called many things, good and bad, but one thing that he will never be remembered as is a #Statesman. #POTUS47

#KingCharles and #PrinceWilliam must be immensely relieved that #PrinceHarry will no longer be popping back to the UK for court appearances. #MGN
