Trump is coming after our BBC. He’s suing it for $10 billion, and the Conservatives and Reform are cheering him on. The BBC must not pay Trump a penny. Instead of rolling over, it should sue Trump back for the lies he’s telling about it.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”. If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

A Labour Culture Secretary, Lisa Nandy, is promoting idea of advertising on the #BBC and/or a part subscription model for its future funding. I despair. How can the BBC's *unique* *precious* blend of universality, independence, freedom from commercial pressure and trust be maintained in this way?

In other news... "The export of chaos is a feature not a bug in this Russian approach to international engagement; and we should be ready for this to continue until Putin is forced to change his calculus." www.gov.uk/government/s...

Nothing more than perceived wealth that doesn’t exist for the purposes of taxes, but magically does for the purposes of leverage. Meanwhile, the rest of us pay real taxes on low wages and can’t leverage shit. The game is rigged. Tax the rich.

Trump’s Rob Reiner comment was low even for him, but it’s the week of Epstein Files release and Affordable Care deadline, so look for more stupid Trump stuff to distract you from that. Epstein. Health care. Eye on the ball.

Stop This !!!!

And it's 3 days until they have to release the Epstein files.

The Trump sycophants and spinmasters can twist the jobs numbers all they want to fool people, but here is one simple number they can’t change: the US unemployment rate is now the highest it’s been in 4 years.

I swear, as a physician, I'm really losing my cool over RFK Jr...

Not enough, we want a full investigation of past funding to all MPs. And while you are at it let's see the Russian Report. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/d...

Trumps obviously betting the BBC cave and settle as US media outlets have under pressure from the felon As a UK TV licence payer all I can say is, they had better not. I don’t want a single penny of my money going to that pitiful excuse for a man www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

And can we have the Russia Report released as well? #RussiaReport

Except they're too dishonest and cowardly to call it ethnic cleansing.
