Trump on NATO: "If the United States was in trouble and we called them. We said, 'We got a problem, France.' Do you think they're gonna come and protect us? Hmm. They're supposed to. I'm not so sure." (Literally the only time NATO Article 5 was invoked was after 9/11 on behalf of the US.)

Say no more.

I just told Speaker Hoyle to keep Trump out of Parliament - will you do the same? actionstorm.org/petitions/du... #DumpTrump

*week three

I'm starting this thread to document as many awful things Trump and his cronies are doing with links - as well as examples of those standing up to hate. I'll keep updating in the comments as an easy reference point for myself and others. Starting with... www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/...

As we approach #FollowBackFriday, we should remember that the aim of the #FBPE movement is closer integration with Europe. So if you are #ProEU, then I want to follow you. It will take time, we must be patient, but we have lost so much. #FBR #NAFO #Resist #AntiFascist

Nigel Farage, sitting with Reform UK MP James McMurdock who was jailed for attacking his girlfriend, says assaults on young women are out of control.

Mark Zuckerberg is removing fact checking from all Meta platforms and adding a Trump loyalist to the board so he is allowed to takeover TikTok. These billionaires don't care about anyone or anything except their profits.

Absolutely this from Ed Davey 👏

Happy New Year! I saw in midnight singing to a bunch of happy people. What did you do at midnight? #newyearseve #newyear #newyear2025

@carlevecrime.bsky.social North Road West cordoned off between Patna Place and Melbourne Street from 6.30 this morning, fire engines, police and ambulance. Now a single address taped off, police guard and forensics van. Any clue what's happening?

Paladin: ‘We need to talk about your familiar…’ Sorcerer: ‘What about my him?’ Paladin: ‘He keeps ‘flashing’ his nuts at me!’ Sorcerer: ‘If there are any ‘nuts’ on display here—then it’s you…’ (Paladin turns around and points). Paladin: ‘WHY YOU LITTLE SHI—HE’S DOING IT AGAIN!’

1/11 A thread. Well, that was an "interesting" night. 1.15am, someone rings our doorbell, and won't quit. I answer the door, half asleel, and a woman demands entry to "search for her missing daughter", after "tracking her phone" to our property.

“All donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations. This would, by necessity mean no donations from private companies; PLCs, LTDs, whatever.”

THIS is how it’s done, folks.

New hair day!

Gisele Pelicot should named as the Time person of the year. For bravely waiving her anonymity in one of the most horrific rape cases the world has seen, to take a stand for survivors and shame the perpetrators. Instead they’re featuring Trump, a rapist, for the second time. Obviously.

We need to remove profit creation from the delivery of public healthcare, because the goal of a private company is to deliver profit to its shareholders. This leads to very bad things for patients.

No, Nigel Farage. We emphatically do not talk about this at home. You will not import your authoritarian christofascist Trump-style threats into our political debate. Can’t tell you quite how far you’ll be told to fuck off if you try.

More photos from the set of #HomicideLifeOnTheStreet from December 1999. Hard to believe these were taken 25 years ago! @audacityofdespair.bsky.social @reeddiamond.bsky.social @kylesecor.bsky.social

Some photos from the set of Homicide: Life on the Street, on the day they sold off the props. More later. @audacityofdespair.bsky.social @reeddiamond.bsky.social @kylesecor.bsky.social

Never try to write a thread on Bluesky without the aid of sufficient caffeine. It won't end well.

A shiny little thread... 🧵 25 years ago today, day 14 of 20 of filming for the Homicide: Life on the Street movie, Homicide: Life Everlasting, took place at Church Home Hospital in #Baltimore. This movie signalled the end of the groundbreaking TV series. #HLOTS #HomicideLifeOnTheStreet 1/7

Wake me up when this week's over, please.

Saying “I promise not to drink on the job” because you have a record of drinking on the job, should be disqualifying as fuck for ANY job, let alone the Secretary of Defense. Why didn’t he also say, “I promise not to sexually assault any women on the job.” Is sexual assault not as disqualifying?

Mick Lynch went on Question Time once then they banned him because he embarrassed them. The establishment sack of 💩 Nigel Farage has been on 38 times because he tells the lies the billionaires want you to hear.

Dear #CovidCorruptionCommissioner, We need to see money reclaimed, we need to see offenders arrested, we need to see JAIL TIME delivered.

1. I’m pretty sceptical about representative democracy: broadly speaking, I think it’s a contradiction in terms. But if we are to have such a thing, it should look like the assistant dying bill debate in Parliament yesterday. That debate showed us what we are missing all the rest of the time. 🧵

Today's earworm - The Other, by Elroy Finn. Had this on repeat since it hit @bandcamp.com yesterday. Love it! elroyelroy.bandcamp.com/track/the-ot... #Elroy #ElroyFinn
