The Home Office confirms that its plans for forced returns will include families with children. If they refuse to leave then "we will escalate to an enforced return"

“Methane emissions across the supply chain are a key indicator of poor environmental and operational practices in the fossil fuel industry. Reducing [them] in the energy sector is the most effective and rapid way to cut greenhouse gases in the short term.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Last night Russia struck Balakliya in Kharkiv region with two missiles. 3 people were killed and 15 wounded, including three girls aged 14, 15, and 17, as well as a 12‑year‑old boy, Prosecutor’s Office reported.

He and his party have spent a year relentlessly opposing the release of the Epstein files. Now, suddenly, he's demanding their release. The fix is in...

The government's asylum plan confirms they intend to ramp up the deportation of families - including children. This aspect, in particular, causing unease among Labour MPs... www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

This is not 'decent moderate politics' It is Far Right demonisation of immigrants which will make them second class 'citizens' (if they don't get deported for 20 years) It will not solve the problem it will increase racism and empower Reform all while driving voters from Labour

Russian oil prices have crashed to $36 per barrel. Last week, Urals crude hit its lowest point in over two years, just days before new US sanctions on Russia’s top oil firms take effect. The discount to Brent widened to over $23, as buyers grow cautious amid the threat of secondary sanctions.

the flicker is back for a visit

Coons: "Trump ran on lowering costs, making America health again, & avoiding new foreign wars. He's broken the first, broken the second, & seems to be sleepwalking into breaking the third. It's causing concern not just throughout Congress, but in the MAGA base that Trump is marching us toward war."

Wow 😮 A federal magistrate judge overseeing the criminal case against former F.B.I. director James B. Comey just issued a ruling stating that “government misconduct may have tainted the grand jury proceedings” that led to his indictment. We expected this, but here it is.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

They’re telling you… That prices are down, while all your bills are going up. That tariffs don’t raise prices, but now they’re lowering tariffs for some items in order to…wait for it…reduce prices. That they don’t have money for SNAP or healthcare, while they send $40B to Argentina. 1/2

"One case involved the sole African American attorney working for the Mississippi State Senate, who was paid less than half of what her white colleagues made. As clear-cut a case of disparate racial treatment you could find. Trump appointees ordered us to drop it." www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

My thoughts are with the NYPD officer who was shot this morning in Brownsville and I am praying for his recovery. I'm grateful to law enforcement for their quick response and I will continue to monitor the situation as it develops.

They think we’re all so stupid

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday. The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees. Here’s my advice for ICEstapo: Take a night off. Go to the movies. Watch “Nuremberg”. Your time is coming.

i'd say it did. the public put a group of thieves, vandals and extremists in office last november and they promptly went about destroying everything that might work to limit their ability to loot, steal and inflicting pain on the people they hate

IF THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR YOU TO EVEN LOOK AT — I’VE HEARD OF CHILDREN HAVING TO ENDURE WORSE AND NOT ONLY DID NO ONE DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, BUT THEY ELECTED A LITIGATED RAPIST TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED FUCKING STATES.

The nation’s most advanced aircraft carrier arrived in the Caribbean on Sunday in a display of U.S. military power, raising questions about what the new influx of troops and weaponry could signal for the Trump administration’s drug enforcement intentions in South America. apnews.com/article/airc...

Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

Several women who survived abuse by Jeffrey Epstein came together for a powerful PSA video demanding that Congress release all files on the accused sex trafficker. “While we are Epstein and Maxwell survivors, we are standing for so many victims of sexual assault and of domestic violence, as well.”

Kitten named Charlotte

The Prime Minister said in September that we are at a fork in the road. These asylum proposals suggest we have taken the wrong turning. The idea that recognised refugees need to be deported is wrong. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Trump went on Truth Social to slam Indiana Republicans for refusing to advance a redistricting plan that would eliminate several Democratic-leaning seats. He warned that if GOP leaders in the state Senate don’t reverse course, he’s prepared to back primary challengers against them.

All I’m going to say is, they don’t care if he’s had sex with children, but if they find out he’s had sex with another man, they will implode… They have a fcked up sense of morality.

The resistance is growing

The Epstein Survivors confirm Trump killed a Biden-era investigation into Epstein's co-conspirators, fired the prosecutors, then stole the files. I'll discuss today at Noon PT/3 PM ET www.youtube.com/live/49HUqKI...

Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax. Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it's a hoax. And I have another concern about these investigations he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."

Stalking a 19-year-old David Hogg, who had just survived a school shooting, berating him, calling him names, and accusing him of being a liar isn't "toxic politics." It's being a crude, unhinged sociopath. www.cnn.com/2021/01/27/p...

Happy Sunday 🌞🌱 The day is beautiful, the air is gentle, and life is waiting for you outdoors. Go soak in the light and let it inspire your next chapter.

It's a revealing moment... J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost. The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

If only the Orange King was the backbone of the right wing movement. He’s just a front man. The real danger is behind him, obscured from view. ONE of the biggest problems we have is the Supreme Corruption who broke the Constitution to allow him on the ballot. They have lifetime appointments.

Bovino’s rant fits the authoritarian indicators in our assessment: empowered security forces acting with impunity, militarized immigration raids, executive overreach through federalized enforcement, and loyalty-driven ops unmoored from oversight. His tone isn’t an outlier but a symptom.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: For this entire week - about 1,000 attack drones, almost 980 guided aerial bombs and 36 missiles of various types were launched by the Russians against our people. We have prepared new strong agreements with Europe to significantly strengthen our sky protection, our diplomacy.

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

🇺🇦 Zelensky: A historic agreement has been prepared with France. There will be a significant strengthening of our combat aviation, air defense, and other defense capabilities.

One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true? HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart-- KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

Is this losing? Feels like losing
