Zohran Mamdani is exploring options to arrest Binyamin Netanyahu if the Israeli prime minister comes to New York for the UN general assembly in September

CPAC in the UK, since when? Another hateful American export. Pleased that the new govt. in Hungary will no longer sponsor CPAC, a group meeting that wraps itself in religion while promoting hate at the same time.

Marco Rubio is currently delivering a very boring speech railing against "communism." These guys really think they're cooking by trying to revive the Red Scare. Ain't gonna work with people under 60 years old.

He`s hell bent on eliminating the Constitution.

Talarico: "When I first heard this low T thing, I had to look it up. Guys my age aren't really worried about that kind of thing."

BADASS SONG there's NO WAY most young ppl will be familiar with THIS artist...the GREAT Wilson Pickett-ONE of THE GREAT VOICES of that time. Here's his radio version of "Mustang Sally" tbf by the movie version in "The Commitments" featuring The Blues Brothers et al. www.youtube.com/watch?v=16u6...

Liz Truss, "A lot of people feel we are losing our country" "If Britain is in such a great state why is Keir Starmer leaving office?" "He is just lying, he is just lying" Liz Truss then criticises net zero, despite advocating for net zero as PM.

Liz Truss complaining about MPs being scrutinised in parliament, saying she prefers life outside as she's more free to do things

This is priceless, worth anyone's vote. #VoteBinface youtube.com/shorts/zXRsg...

The hypocrisy of Farage pretending nostalgia for a time when state-ownership of public utilities was the norm and the very rich faced personal tax of 90%, corporation tax of over 45% all of which he abhors

“No politics” say FIFA. Let’s see what happens here. Please note that Captain Harry Kane was threatening with a ban for wanting to wear a rainbow armband at the Qatar World Cup.

What could go wrong?

America is governed by the most useless kids in your class in high school.

“‘That is RIDICULOUS,’ one person with knowledge of the planned golf trip said in a message. ‘Pence and Harris never pulled anything like that.’” www.ms.now/news/veeps-s...

OSSOFF: Are you aware that Gabbard was present at the Fulton County raid? CLAYTON: ... O: What is going on here? C: ... ... O: Are you aware that members of this committee are probing Gabbard's potential misconduct? CLAYTON: .... Uh uh .... COTTON: Senator Ossoff your time is expired!

Now this, This is serious politics we should ALL support. Even Scotland @johnswinney.bsky.social @richardburgon.bsky.social 👏👏👏 @snp.org @scottishgreens.org @scottishlabour.bsky.social

HASSAN: If RFK ordered you to stop promoting flu vaccine during a deadly flu season, would you? S: We have to prioritize-- HASSAN: This isn't a hypothetical. RFK Jr in the middle of a deadly outbreak directed the CDC to do it. So would you? S: I don't speak in hypotheticals-- H: It happened!

Was about to write this but @julieroginsky.bsky.social did it first: "Any television network with an ounce of integrity should refuse to carry Trump’s address live." They should delay, then fact-check the hell out of it, providing context, i.e. journalism saltypolitics.substack.com/p/the-medias...

Hegseth now wants taxpayers to pay to give testosterone injections to troops to make them better warfighters.

A 28-year-old man was brutally murdered in Florida by ICE thugs who chased him onto the path of an oncoming semi-truck. The driver of the truck stopped his vehicle and immediately attempted to aid the victim while the ICE thugs stood around, hands in vests.

Yup … technology is not all it’s cracked up to be … #cdnpoli

OSSOFF: Who won the 2020 election? CLAYTON: Uhm, you know, I'm not going to do this with you O: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee. Who won the 2020 election? C: I'm not gonna get into that with you O: You're not being honest or forthright C: ...

Reform UK's Zia Yusuf is currently delivering a speech accusing his party's critics of using language that will put his colleagues' lives at risk. In other news, here's Zia Yusuf two months ago

The yankification of the world cup really pisses me off. Do football fans really want to sit through a pop concert delaying the second half? And why the fuck is the USA anthem being sung? They're not playing. 🤷‍♀️ www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

I mean, if you look at what the leading figures in the field say... www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Remember Streeting's review into whether young people are being overdiagnosed with ADHD, autism, and mental health issues? Well, the interim report is out, and there's a reason the media are silent on it (spoiler: it proves what a lot of us have been saying all along)

“I investigated Palantir’s foothold in the British state – and what I found should worry us all” @petergeoghegan.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

looks like Thames Water has given a 14% pay rise to its chief executive and a 26% rise to its finance director

Republicans are actually going with anti-communism as their central message to voters for the midterms. I figured House Rs would ignore Trump’s ridiculous plan, but it appears Mike Johnson and his band of sycophants has decided to go with it while adding Christian nationalism.

"We cannot take that hurt away tonight, but we can put decency back at the heart of the British state, and that is what this bill does." With the Hillsborough Law set to be approved in the Commons, Andy Burnham says he hopes it "ends the cover-up culture" many have faced in the country.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

These dangerously incompetent lying buffoons & corrupt peers etc like Johnson, Gove, Hancock, Mone, Mordaunt, McVey should be forced to pay back the £10Billion it’s now been proved was wasted - they wasted corruptly pocketed via their mates - £10 Billion of our money - fvcken thieves, lock ‘em up👎😡

NASA around then built a rocket, a lander & a helicopter, flew them to Mars & operated on the surface of a foreign planet for months. Cost, $11.25 billion. Yet we are expected to believe Dido Harding spent £34 billion on a copy of Excel? (Retail value £25). Germany did it for less than £1 million.

Dido Harding trousering £34 billion for a spreadsheet, an amount that is simply impossible to spend in that manner. Michelle Monie & her PPE superyacht & private jet. No corruption? Bollocks. It was a robbery.

I mean Hancock’s pub landlord 🤔 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/pub-lan...

Baroness Hallet’s take on the PPE VIP lanes - ‘But she said there was "no evidence of cronyism or corruption" by ministers or other officials when awarding the final contracts’ I say bullshit, this is the Establishment closing ranks. The rich and powerful, never get held to account. I despair.

What do childish lists achieve? I’ve been added to a Nazi one. It’s so ludicrous.😂

A russian guided aerial bomb killed a 13-year-old Ukrainian athlete Ulyana Vorona. Meanwhile, the International Olympic Committee lifted all restrictions on russian athletes that had been in place since 2022. ==============

*taps sign*

Every time an American says Communism.

Really sad to hear that Meg Cox has died. She was an fine poet with many different registers. This poem of hers remains a top-notch, acerbic critique of the scene...!

Schiff: People are struggling right now. And what is the president focused on? Spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on his own mug, on banners draped over federal buildings, like Stalin used to do.. If he needs to find more money, how about the 2.2 billion that he has corruptly absconded with

people angry about a movie based on a 2800-year-old poem should be forced to go to war for ten years and then take another ten to get home

It’s incredible that people this dumb get the same number of votes as you do.
