The KGB ‘played the game as if they were immensely impressed by his personality’... Donald Trump was cultivated as a Russian asset over 40 years and proved so willing to parrot anti-western propaganda that there were celebrations in Moscow... #r4today

Without friends

In many ways it's fitting that the showdown between monarchy and democracy ends up being over NYC congestion pricing. Cities are where the power of kings were first challenged, and few things are more fundamental to government than control of public space. The cameras are staying on!

Welcome to the resistance, er, Mike Pence...

Wednesday’s @thetimes.com cartoon times.newsprints.co.uk/morten-morla...

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol. We held back Putin’s invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.

That’s how you write a headline, people.

"I cunningly tricked the enemy by immediately caving to all of their negotiation demands. I then used their confusion to get a 3rd helping at the lunch buffet and steal 2 of their pens. Another personal victory."

It is increasingly clear that MAGA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kremlin fascism.

Accurate

You thought all of these planes crashing was an example of the Trump administrations inability to govern, when in fact their goal this whole time has been to bring back clapping, when planes land. You’re playing checkers while they’re playing 4D chess

Another one of my favourite cartoons that links #Caturday and my go-to insult. Also means the final quid of my first Bluesky Charity Swear Box has arrived...and donation to be organised and advertised on that Skeet. 😊

Word of the day is ‘cumber-world’ (14th century): a person or thing that encumbers the planet.

Lol. So much efficiency.

The Bogger Mogger herself. Flew home to visit Ma for a few days. I'm Callie the Connemara Calico's valentine.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Absolutely chilling post by @chrischirp.bsky.social setting out how T rump is aggressively mobilising a classic authoritarian playbook. I did not think I would see the death of American democracy (and American science) in my lifetime. #academicsky open.substack.com/pub/christin...

Sometimes people ask why I advocate for greater investment in active travel. One massive reason is that I was lucky enough to go to Kesgrave High School. I experienced transport independence as a child. And I want that for my children, and others. #activetravel @chrisboardman.bsky.social

EU law protects its citizens from discrimination - but it doesn't protect ours. Blame Farage and those other lying chancers.

Word of the day is ‘arsle’ (19th century): to have a distinct sense of going backwards.

´Jour

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Farage caught bullshitting (again). youtu.be/YFiCZqTUdnQ?...
