This is so bad I’m now a Marxist

Following the incident, a spokesperson said the confrontation had been caused by “a few angry men” attempting to “spread anti-trans bigotry” www.attitude.co.uk/news/green-m...

Jesus.

If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense. People who oppose impeachment as “pointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.

We spent approx. $9B to murder those Iranian schoolgirls so now we can declare victory.

It's all so clear

let's see if I've got this straight the war is over, pretty much except if we want to bomb iran some more, or israel does or if iran decides to keep the strait closed also the regime didn't change and we didn't accomplish anything but blowing up a bunch of kids and poisoning tehran ok good work

I try very hard not to use the word Orwellian too much but it’s the best adjective for the mauling of language at the start of this BBC News report. “… an anti-hate demonstration that turned violent”. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A reminder that Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch and the entire Conservative-supporting press have spent the past week lambasting Keir Starmer for not joining the Iran war. Here's what has happened since then to public opinion

“If any member of Congress had declared that ‘Jews do not belong in America,’ that politician would rightfully face condemnation, censure and even possibly expulsion,” says a spokesperson for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy org.

This comes a month after another Republican congressman, Randy Fine of Florida, said: “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one.” Not a peep out of Mike Johnson after that one.

Ogles' comments are as brazenly Islamophobic as it gets. And yet, if past is precedent, House Republican leadership will say or do absolutely nothing about this. I asked Mike Johnson's office for comment. So far, nada.

This Republican congressman, a far-right election denier with a history of making bigoted comments, also says pluralism -- or the idea that members of diverse groups of people can respectfully engage with each other -- is "a lie."

"Muslims don't belong in American society," says Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) www.huffpost.com/entry/andy-o...

I can't compete with this.

No report in the Guardian about a woman MP being attacked on International Women’s Day by transphobic fascists after just a week in the job. They have these “news” items though

Hannah Spencer being harrassed by fascist YouTube streamers in Manchester, every week they are at it

That’s “rising star” Katie Lam, most noted for saying last October that millions of people should be deported because she doesn’t like the look of them. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

👀

Again this seems a gossamer fine distinction

Attacks leave dead vs killed

he just makes mouth noises until he gets the response he’s looking for and people report them as if they mean something

People who love war are sociopaths.

When I watched a smiling Lionel Messi applauding Trump’s cartoon villain bloodlust, I thought about Muhammad Ali going on international television to deliver his poem condemning the Attica prison massacre, telling the world that fascists would never conquer the human spirit.

Tarrio and the Proud Boys were also found liable for vandalizing a historic Black church in DC and ordered to pay $3 million for violating the KKK Act, FACE Act, and other civil rights laws.

Oh my god: this is *daytime* in Tehran.

NEW: Watch this report just in from CNN’s Frederik Pleitgen. It is raining oil in Tehran this morning. A city of 10 million is being actively poisoned. (🎥 CNN)

It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.

It feels like another tipping point is being crossed rn… back-&-forth refinery strikes, Tehran in flames. Trump demanding unconditional surrender, de facto boasting of bombing Iranian desal. US & Israel are pushing Iran to fire everything it has at the region’s weakest links. Unimaginably dangerous.

Mainstream media picking up on this now and look who's on the case! He's finished...

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors. My report:

Indonesia suspends its participation in Board of Peace “Indonesian FM Sugiono said the decision to suspend participation was taken because of the latest military escalation in the region, which has directly affected the foreign policy priorities of countries involved in the initiative”

Which category do these belong to?

Article from last year, but ...what an extremely bizarre and telling headline. What sort of people would say hey ...this place I'm bombing is quite beautiful, hope I can visit some day.

Currently listening to:

People are saying this about Darren Johnson, the guy that was kicked out of the Greens for being a bigot:

INBOX: @couriernewsroom.bsky.social is circulating a video of #TX23 Republican nominee Brandon Herrera showing off his "1939 edition" copy of Mein Kampf.

Now, if we could just get this level of backbone out of Democrats WITHOUT Nazi tattoos.

You’re telling me to do *what* to the Boer?

thoughts on stephen miller’s rant about “human rights” youtu.be/3RJ_TWtFcMk?...

I’m not saying it’s true, but lots of people have told me Darren Jonson killed a hedgehog with a hammer and then ate it raw, why is LabourList profiling this guy?

Yo anybody else remember Lyndon LaRouche?

all together now IS THIS GOOD

I go to bed and wake up to $90 Brent crude, this guy really is the fucking anti-Christ

Hearing this end of the fiscal year we're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine and the machine is bleeding to death

He's putting up record job losses, driving the country into a war he can't even explain, and was credibly accused of raping a teenager in the Epstein files released yesterday - so of course it's time to try and ruin more trans people's lives

"Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump acknowledges the possibility. 'I guess,' he says."
