I can’t get over the sheer ugliness of a president of 🇺🇸 punching down in public on the President of 🇺🇦 , who epitomises valour & leadership, accusing the victim of a war of aggression of starting WW3 and not being sufficiently grateful. Trump is such white trash he said “this will make great TV”

Remember all the fuss about DeepSeek R1 AI a few weeks ago, with some claims that the Chinese firm was deceptive about how they trained their model? All last week, they've been revealing stunning new techniques, including exploiting GPU bugs to gain speed, and an entirely new hyperfast file system.

US Senator Bernie Sanders: Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

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

Supporters Praise Trump For Upholding Traditional American Value Of Supporting Murderous Dictators For Political Gain

UK could also boycott Amazon for a day. It's these monster companies that have led us to democracy being dismantled. Power and money has pooled in only a few hands. And it's never enough...they keep wanting more. We need a reset and the little fish need to take small actions. Live without Amazon.

The populist right is damaging US science. Here's what I think we should be doing to ensure that the UK does not suffer the same fate. 🧵 1/37

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

AOC: "There's a fundamental math problem here. There is a constant reiteration of waste, fraud, and abuse." People are NOT disposable!

Just a reminder, Starmer did fine with Trump yesterday, but what was said yesterday will mean little today. And we have a government that now understands that thankfully. Also that is still prioritising EU over US in trade terms even if ultra-cautiously on both.

I’m sorry but this isn’t getting enough attention. When RFK Jr. was asked about a young child who died of measles in Texas, he responded “It's not unusual. We have measles outbreaks all the time.” This is the first Measles death in the US in 10 years.

If somebody asks Elon Musk what he has achieved in the last month He can say "I slashed 26 percent off the share price for my company, Tesla" "And the value of X, continued to nosedive" Only federal contracts can keep him afloat

"As well as Tesla sales, SpaceX's Starlink is bombing too."

We interrupt the usual geopolitical content for…Seriously, if you’re going to leave it like this, why pick it up at all?

The elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Musk and Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

Remind me why there is a shortage of air traffic controllers again

They just fired hundreds of FAA employees.

Andrew Tate and brother, who face rape and human sex trafficking charges in Romania, have left for the US after an official in the Trump administration expressed interest in the brothers’ case at the Munich Security Conference. Sounds like these criminal immigrants bought the Krasnov Gold Card.

UNBELIEVABLE!

I am finding the toadying to him NAUSEATING. Absolutely disgusting he’s getting a 2nd state visit. Get your placards ready.

Rats! ☹️

Trump, the adjudicated rapist, has allowed the Tate brothers to fly to America to avoid being prosecuted for raping a child in Rumania. Make America great again? Well done MAGA evangelists.

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

Boss of England’s most polluting water provider United Utilities admits firm ‘isn’t good enough at stopping sewage dumping’. Dumped sewage for 3.6m hours. CEO got £1.4m pay. Company has 205 criminal convictions, allowed to hike bills by 32%. Must remove profit motive. Nationalise.

Readers note: Trumps coalition of dictators & crooks was formed to “screw the US”. The EU however was created to stop another World War….which coincidentally Trumps crooks are hell bent on causing🤷‍♀️ #Trump #USA

We’d all like zero energy costs in our homes and this new housing project in Essex proves that it’s possible. @jennyrhodes42.bsky.social on the future of sustainable living.

Not just this. Why would other NATO countries spend money on arms from an unfriendly threatening USA? Words and deeds (eg the UN vote) have consequences

It is unbelievably counterproductive to fund increased defence spending by cutting aid to the most fragile countries, or by squeezing stretched departmental budgets. Why does the PM not fund this by increasing taxes on the most wealthy rather than further burdening the poorest?
