Aiming to give Republicans an extra House seat in 2028, a Trump-aligned nonprofit has put $4.35 million toward supporting a proposed ballot measure that would repeal Utah’s anti-gerrymandering law.

Greenhouse gas emissions per capita. The broken grey line is the path required for 2030 targets. Ireland is miles wide of it. The nearest neighbours are crushing it. #climate

Ukraine was not told what happened. "Our task now is to obtain complete information about what has been said in Russia and what other reasons Putin has found to prolong the war and to pressure Ukraine, to pressure us, our independence," Volodymyr Zelensky said in an evening address from Kyiv"

Ironically Reform UK who are funded by big gas and oil, and deny man made emissions are responsible for climate change are the supposed darlings of the farming community. They're being conned. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Lindsay de Wal is was also the first humanist to lead a pastoral care department in the NHS. She spoke to us about listening to patients in need of support, and providing somebody like-minded to speak to during some of life’s most difficult moments. A true trailblazer! humanists.uk/2019/03/19/t...

Well done, Lindsay! 👏 humanists.uk/2025/09/01/f...

The headline, the main takeaway from a European viewpoint is this: The transatlantic relationship as we know it is over. Yes, we kinda knew this. But this is now official US White House policy. Not a sppech, not a statement. The West as it used to be no longer exists.

1. Some good news at last. This week’s column is about the amazing thing a couple of us stumbled into three years ago, which we’ve now developed into a global research programme. It doesn’t change everything, of course, but it could help change quite a lot. + 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years. Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

As the United States carries out illegal attacks at sea, we must defend international law, speak up for peace, and say without hesitation: no war with Venezuela.

"A 2000 study that concluded the well-known herbicide glyphosate was safe, widely cited since then, has just been officially disavowed by the journal that published it. The scientists are suspected of having signed a text actually prepared by Monsanto." share.google/6w6k99vOAjQd...

Trump is definitely not woke. 😉

On top of this, Trump has: -Prevented the NLRB from operating -Reversed Biden's minimum wage hike for federal contractors -Gutted OSHA -Rolled back dozens of workplace health & safety regulations -Dropped the FTC’s support for a noncompete ban The “pro-worker" president.

President Trump on Tuesday delivered blatantly xenophobic public remarks, which included attacking Somali immigrants in Minnesota and calling them “garbage.” Listen to "The Daily."

Billions of your tax dollars are going to Palantir Technologies, the backbone of Trump's anti-immigrant police state. Be warned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_VwyhErd88

I really wish the FT would have clarified that this is not quite an ‘aviation entrepreneur’ and rather a fossil fuel trader - much in line with many of Reform UK’s other donor profiles. cc @desmog.com www.ft.com/content/db73... “Reform UK gets record £9mn donation from Christopher Harborne”

A Thailand-based crypto investor has handed a record-breaking £9 million to Reform UK, shortly before Nigel Farage used media interviews to plug his crypto firm and promise lower taxes and deregulation on the industry bylinetimes.com/2025/12/04/c...

It’s time for Nigel Farage to sack his white supremacist Staffordshire Council Leader Ian Cooper.

Israel will be opening the Rafah crossing "soon" & say they're doing it "in accordance with the ceasefire agreement" The pretend ceasefire was signed almost 2mths ago. Why havn't they opened it already & why are they only opening it for the exit of people & not the entry of aid?

Russian propaganda in full force for the Witkoff visit: Putin is claiming to have captured Ukrainian cities that he doesn't control, and having himself photographed in military uniform kyivindependent.com/putin-claims...

Sen. Kelly: “This is about a president who doesn't want anybody to say anything that he does not like. I don't think he understands the Constitution. I think he is ignorant to the Constitution and the rule of law…This isn't about me. This is about what he will do next.”

#Bluetongue Virus's arrival in Ireland is a #climate change story as well as an animal welfare concern. Endemic in sub-tropics, but unheard of in Europe until the late '90s. Changing humidity and temperature allowed the infected midges to survive in ever more northerly areas. Graphic: WOAH

Trump just gave a commutation to David Gentile, a private equity executive who defrauded investors of $1.6B. Meanwhile, Trump's regime has also scrapped enforcement actions against over 160 corporations accused of misconduct. A new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.
