This is just about as dickish a headline for Ashoka they could’ve written, just pure clickbaity misdirection.

Time for my favourite drinking game: every time he says “warfighter”, you take a shot and by the end of it—maybe you'll be as inebriated as Hegseth

Jahn was either the worst shot in the world or people are being spun a yarn on this one

“What’re you in for?” “I asked the President if the Russians were using the Golden Shower Tape to blackmail him”

Yeah, I bet @jay.bsky.team would be courteous enough to foment an insurrection in person

It’s giving youtu.be/1PTiMKsTo-o?...

They’re all girlies in their ✨Concentration Camp Era✨

Not the NFL App keeping me on top of my Taylor Swift/Travis Kelce news

I hate the Internet sometimes

I don't even have to tell you this tweet is about #LoveIslandUSA, it's so obvious and I kinda love it

They're not war plans unless they're from the war plan region of France.

Try as the Times might there is not a narrative element on this earth that will make me feel sorry for second-home owners being taxed more

Keep in mind this is the meeting that the White House and Pentagon swore up and down wasn’t happening

Y’ALL ARE FUCKING WILD. JUROR 7 IS BACK!

I dunno if y’all have heard but you’re not allowed to boycott Tesla, apparently it’s illegal

To be clear: a tariff is a tax.

JD Vance is the Vice President of the United States, one of the most powerful men in the country and one with a highly trained and vigilant security detail. This did not happen.

“won”, like he didn’t just buckle under the pressure of his backer’s blanching at the internal economic effects this trade wars was having

There it is. Literally saying the US and Russia are working together to take away the independence of another country. I'm wondering if any of our press is gonna pick this one up? Seems like headline material?

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command”

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Zelenskyy mogs Trump 4K

Perception of Starmer’s Trump visit yesterday: A Poem in Three Parts

Michael Fanone is a man that deserves to go down in the annals as one of the staunchest defenders of democracy and greatest American heroes. Truly a case study in true strength and heroism

Some of the best commentary on the struggle of moral resistance from @asharangappa.bsky.social here. Its a good reminder that standing up for your ideals matters just as much as the kitchen table, as if does in the halls of congress.

This is why Labour’s comms needs to be on-point. The media class did the same thing during the Blair years; the British press is, and always has been, a Tory establishment. If Labour wants to be seen for their successes, they need to beat their chest about them.

✨Fascism✨

An absolutely narrative shattering series, certainly one you’ll never read in the establishment papers. @peterjukes.bsky.social and @carolecadwalla.bsky.social are investigative hosts, at the top of their game. Take the time, have a listen.

Really good analysis, separates the lies from the truth, the claims from the facts. All raising an overarching point: What can America *really* do if politics and the law are powerless to thwart Trump?

@asharangappa.bsky.social is one of the best voices in the dark that has become of American democracy. However, there are few other people who can match her analysis on disinformation campaigns, particularly the one’s occurring domestically in the US.

Every listen to independent media like @meidastouch.com is another “fuck you” to Joe Scarborough

Can’t wait for @aaronparnas.bsky.social to announce when my spirit is breaking, not just the news

Donald Trump is not an illegitimate president. He is, however, a bastard.

If you’re looking for someone new to listen to, to make sense of everything in the US right now, give my guy @realtexaspaul.com a go. His videos are always informative, to the point and appropriately emotive. Plus, as you see here…he’s just a solid guy who connects with his viewers.

Try this: “When they go low, we kick their fucking teeth in”

In 100 years, they’ll read about how the most powerful nation in the world had its democracy hijacked by a really weird superbillionaire and his trusty intern: BigBalls.

I said “holy fuck” three times watching this. Shit just keeps going.

This has all been in the last day. This is not the mind of a stable man. He is dangerously unhinged and full of hostile intent.

Let’s roleplay. You’re a senior government official and a 19 year old intern, going by the name of “Big Balls”, comes into your office demanding access to your sensitive information. Do you: a) punch him in the face b) tell him to fuck off c) call his parents because what the actual fuck

Insane timeline that we’re in, @wired.com is one of the few media outlets holding Musk’s attempt to subvert American democracy up to the light. And they’re doing it very well. Have a read.

I wonder what the rest of the world is saying about us now. Berlin newspaper.

If protests during the last Trump admin taught us anything it’s this: Plan for a protest, dress for a riot.

How can any of us feel anything other than intensely ashamed to be associated with this? Just incredible cruelty and indifference. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/w...

Jesus fucking Christ. They’re not even a month in.

This is the reality in the US right now. Everyone knows Trump is lying; about the $50m condoms, about the insane asylums. But the GOP will never stand up, not while Elon Musk, A FASCIST OLIGARCH, is threatening their political longevity. Resistance is easy, if you have nothing to lose.

They STILL don’t get it. It’s not that they’re deporting people, it’s how they’re doing it. Unlawfully, with no regard for their basic human rights.

A phrase that describes all of these AI chatbot and generators is: “probability, not possiblity”. They can make judgements based on past behaviour and as accurate as that may be, it’s still just predictive. It’s not authentic creation.

Since the overturn of Roe, Obergefell has been on the table. If you chose not to see that, you’ve been deliberately obtuse

Apparently if you pardon criminals without consequences, then they behave as though they have no consequences for their actions
