Escaped from the cesspit. Yes, that one… Here for some laughs, photos and sensible banter. I walk, run, sail and ski. If you're sending a friend request with nothing more than a pair of tits, please don't and just jog on.

USAID is not a "scam". It helps prevent this. I'm agnostic, but I really hope there's a hell for Donald Trump.

Boycott American products. Boycott anyone that advertises on GB News. Simple direct action that hits them where it hurts. Financially. Express your disgust with your wallet.

Extortion, pure and simple.

I don't think anyone could possibly have had Jacob Rees-Mogg's daughter doing a live tarot reading for a mortified Michael Gove on GBeebies on their 2025 bingo card. We are living through some strange fever dream. ~AA

Just to remind people that tomorrow is the 3rd anniversary of Putin’s unlawful invasion of Ukraine. His planned 3 day “special operation” is still being slogged out, costing Russia about 1 million men (dead and injured) courtesy of Ukrainian courage. Be there if you can to support them 🙏

Oh.

Today's front page of The New York Post.

Lie after lie has been told this week about how the Ukraine war started, from the Kremlin and the White House. Here's our News Agents video essay which explains the truth, and spells out why Trump clings so close to Putin and lives in his warped reality. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cufM...

Steve Bannon last night with a Nazi salute followed by the smug nod which says, ‘Yeah, we can do this in the open now.’

Strangely enough the Telegraph looks less ridiculous with Sunday Sport stories.

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia has published a letter sent to him by Trump’s Department of Justice threatening to potentially prosecute him for criticizing Elon Musk.

"We must dare to be boring". A highlight of a morning meeting in Brussels.

Freedom of Movement was robbed from us by a successful Russian influence operation and the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history. Please repost if you want it restored.

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

The slippery, sane-washing desperation of Boris Johnson as he realises what his whole-hearted backing of Trump means. Excruciating.

Elon Musk is Trump's unelected hatchman who is hijacking government agencies with no accountability whatsoever to the American people. Musk and his team have recently gained direct access to the U.S. Treasury system that processes payments, including Social Security and Medicare. 1/

The Daily Mail has for a long time been protecting a senior journalist who it knows to be a sexual predator. We are helping his victims get justice by suing the Daily Mail - and him. goodlaw.social/24jb

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

The peace dividend is over. Europe needs a rapid rise in defence spending. That's a tragedy. Money spent on instruments of death cannot be spent on the means of life: art, schools, childcare, housing. It will change radically what progressive govts can do. But without it,everything else is at risk

Hmm why don’t Europeans buy more American Cars…🤔 Because it’s impossible to drive monsters like this👇🏼through narrow streets of Paris, Nice, Milan, Rome.. never mind the villages.. Plus vs BMW, VW, Mercedes, Renault, Fiat etc US cars are crap❗️🤷🏼‍♂️

Interesting…..

Tens of thousands of American children studying in Pentagon schools serving US military families have had all access to library books suspended for a week while officials conduct a “compliance review” under Donald Trump’s crackdown on DEI and gender equality www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I'm told the noise at the end was three people clapping. They were all in Vance's entourage. The US is now both pariah and pitiful on the international stage.

JD Vance, vice president of a regime currently overthrowing its own democracy, lectures Europe on the "retreat" from "some of its most fundamental values". He cites the Romanian Constitutional Court annulling its recent presidential election. He doesn't mention this was because Russia interfered.

If a “Democrat” like Dean Phillips says anything remotely like ‘actually Elon is on to something’ at this point just turn them off. It’s been 3 weeks. If you’re too fucking stupid to see this isn’t about saving money, fighting corruption, or preventing fraud then you are clearly compromised.

Texas has a measles outbreak that’s growing. All who’ve contracted measles are unvaccinated. Parents who don’t vaccinate their children need to keep their kids home, out of public schools. Measles is a highly contagious infectious disease #Voices4Victory www.cbsnews.com/news/measles...

Why did Trump have himself put in charge of the Kennedy Center? Because he knows that the educated and cultured people who patronize it despise him. So he seeks revenge. And he knows that his being in charge of the center will destroy it.

A 10-year-old has a better plan for stopping plastic pollution than most politicians. Amaya Edwards discovered an Australian scheme that’s keeping rivers and oceans clean. So why hasn’t the UK adopted it?

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania successfully synchronised their electricity systems with the European energy network today. This is a key milestone for the Baltic States and for Europe strengthening energy resilience and independence across the region. ⚡️

She speaks truth.

Brexit making the headlines.

Hey are those two astronauts still stuck in space Do they at least have some good streaming services up there

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

The brown shirt is on point. (Yes, these are unidentified individuals blocking congresspeople from entering a department Trump and Musk want to illegally shut down. It’s a coup.)

I heard some Herbert from the Spectator praising Trump for restoring ‘freedom of speech’ the other day. In fact, I’ve heard several British right-wing blowhards say the same. Are they utterly, utterly stupid or morally bankrupt or both?
