Apparently “America First” means promising foreign countries financial assistance from US taxpayers but only if they vote for the incumbent president trailing in the polls.

Trump's increasingly frequent talk of ongoing fraud in elections, months before mid-term, is a sure sign that he expects his party to do very badly. Stay awake America, don't let him cheat you .. he is the only one that has attempted election fraud.

Remember: Viktor Orban has built a corrupt, stagnant Hungary that is much poorer than it should be www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

But not ban foreigners from giving money to British political parties?

Well said. The problem is that the leaders of the US government and the people around them are more interested in their ability to profit from the resources of Ukraine and business deals in Russia than a lasting peace for Ukraine and Europe.

Blimey. Looks like Matt Goodwin, who seems to think the Handmaid's Tale is an instruction manual, is in the pay of an Orban think tank, funded by Russian oil money.

We used to stand outside Dixons and watch the tvs 😭 😂 😭

some people really need to get a life www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hungary holds elections in 2 months. And the US Secretary of State is in Hungary campaigning for Viktor Orban. And as you can see, Russian state media loves it.

What an utter disgrace Marco Rubio is. "'I can say to you with confidence that President Trump is deeply committed to your success because your success is our success,' Rubio said during a joint press conference with Orban after their meeting." www.france24.com/en/europe/20...

this is a no-brainer. the parents must be held accountable, there is no excuse for this, none. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

look, at this point, no one is doing this to him but himself. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Oh dear Starmer tried to remove people’s right to local elections is another u-turn

I think I’m going to go in a different direction for health advice.

It's the world view of rich white men who employ nannies and send their kids to boarding school

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold. We really are not a very good-natured country.

The UK was declared measles free in 2017. Vaccine programs completely eliminated it. Since then, pro sickness conspiracy theorists and anti science idiots have enabled its return.

In other words, he will say nothing to Orban and Fico about this because the US only seeks to encourage European leaders who are aligned with Putin.

And not by management or her colleagues, but by the British press as part of a years-long hate campaign now increasingly focused on harassing and harming individual members of the public

If you want to understand why the BBC's stance on trans rights - only platforming cis people (and only those with a sceptical perspective) - is so outrageous imagine if it only platformed men talking about women's rights (and only those with a sceptical perspective).

Just saw that Xing Zhilei, the Chinese DIY influencer, posted an update on his self-built cat town which went viral last year. youtu.be/i1savUPr-yU

I imagine all the lads are horrified and devastated to discover Labour Together compiles bullshitty dossiers of nonsense designed to damage people they want to wreck, especially these journos, who took dossiers from Labour Together and presented them to the public as a terrifying national menace.

It shouldn’t be harder for a woman to register to vote than a man…

European leaders are now pushing back against the "great replacement theory" and other "White Christian Nationalist" propaganda that JD Vance spewed at the Munich security conference. Good for them. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

Musk is a malevolent force in American life, driven by white nationalism and incredibly influential given his obscene wealth. He's a supervillain. But people get that. He's deeply unpopular, with an approval rating in the mid-30s with Trump. We just need political leaders willing to take him on.

LEGO has found a way to ruin itself: a set with a battery-powered piece that has Bluetooth connectivity 🤦🏻‍♂️ the beauty of LEGO is that IT IS NOT ONLINE. it’s just a physical toy that you, a person of any age, can play with using your hands and NO INTERNET

Putin murdered Alexei Navalny in the most disgusting and performative way. He's a psychopath and a monster. Now look at politicians in Britain, Europe, and America who are either looking the other way - or engaging in abject whataboutery.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Katie Hopkins' valentine message to Ben Habib.

Billy Bragg explains why he's supporting The Green Party "To get to a place where we have affordable housing, affordable energy, affordable transport - we need a new settlement between the British people and Westminster" And calls for proportional representation

ICE point weapon directly at woman peacefully protesting, just inches in front of her face. Goon is pointing a B&T GL06 grenade launcher and shooting someone at point-blank range with this so-called "less than lethal" ammo could be fatal.

Billy Bragg, "I was more interested in what Marco Rubio said, about support from the USA being based on whether we follow their values" "I'm concerned about that because the current values coming from the USA is might is right"

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: This week, Russia launched about 1,300 strike drones, more than 1,200 guided aerial bombs & 50 missiles, almost all of which were ballistic. The main targets of the strikes are energy infrastructure & residential buildings.

Hillary Clinton condemns Trump’s stance on Russia-Ukraine war | Ukraine news https://www.byteseu.com/1801017/ Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says the Trump administration’s position on Russia’s war against Ukraine is shameful. She said this during a panel discussion at the …

Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate. And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials. As the Constitution requires. Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...

Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

My point—the singular theme of my campaign for Congress—is this: Whatever your specific policy priorities and preferences may be, wherever you think the public interest should take us, we can’t and won’t get there unless and until we … (1/7)

Gary Lineker, "Jim Ratcliffe is a migrant himself, an economic migrant, he lives in Monaco" "A lot of the immigrants contribute enormously, and the facts show you that, in terms of revenue, paying tax etc" "Whereas Jim in Monaco, is doing everything he can to avoid paying tax"

Note how he's not presenting any ideas, nor telling people why they should vote for him. He's just insulting everyone else.

‘ADHD movers We can’t stop moving’ - I love this.

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski just schooled Czech Deputy Prime Minister Petr Macinka into accepting that the European Union operates as a democracy. Populists have nowhere to hide when met with hard facts. An extraordinary exchange. Well worth a watch.

USA hasn't done anything FOR Ukraine, except to cost them more distruction, and loss of life. Zelensky is right... Without security, they might as well continue fighting. Because it only means Russia will not be held to account, as they are permitted to go without now. Russia owns 200k war crimes

If the Brexit years really were behind us, Reform would no longer be a threat, there’d be no talk of leaving the ECHR, no Brexit peerages or whining about ‘Brexit betrayal’. Instead, there’d be accountability and an electoral price to pay for the damage done. A ruthless reality check. No prisoners.
