“The Christian nationalist right played a key part in the rise of Maga and Trump in the US. Figures such as James Orr, a Cambridge theologian and Reform’s head of policy, hope to perform a similar service for Nigel Farage” Fascist bible-bashing for votes.

Round Up (Glyphosate) weedkiller is not as safe for the environment: "...emails uncovered as part of lawsuits against the weedkiller’s manufacturer, Monsanto, have shown that the company’s scientists played a significant role in conceiving and writing the study." www.nytimes.com/2026/01/02/c...

SO THE RUSSIANS UNDERSTAND WHAT’S HAPPENING - THEY JUST CAN’T ACCEPT WHY

This is how completely stupid members of his administration are. He’s not going to jail. They are. They’re the fall guys. He’s going to blame them for all the shit he’s done. He’ll pardon them, but I guarantee you that states will get them on state charges. Where they can’t be pardoned.

If you can’t sack your demented, insane president are you even a democracy?

Hi. Me again. Where are the complete Epstein files?!

I think my new rescue feels safe and happy.

Iran hits back on social media.

I’m going to assume best intent, and so I will let you know that generating and spreading AI images causes harm to real people and ecosystems.

Real woodpeckers are much prettier.

A joint statement from all other living presidents would be most welcome.

Fun Fact: Todd Blanche is already in violation of the federal law that requires release of the Epstein files. The most powerful federal law enforcement officer is breaking the law.

Happy War Crimes Day to all who celebrate.

“The Epstein Class [is an ongoing] operating system — one that enabled gross barbarism against so many women and girls, one that influences our lives in so many ways still… The network persists. To understand the present, we must understand the machinery that produced it.” @anandwrites.bsky.social

The UK can rename the red lines all it likes, but Brussels interest is substance, not spin. To the EU it will simply be Britain rediscovering the constraints it once derided. Trust won't be reset by rebranding.

First he screams about not needing the Strait of Hormuz and now he is threatening war crimes if the Strait isn't open. It is no wonder no one takes him seriously.

‘This is not Winston Churchill that we're dealing with.’

Yup

The betting apps that infest our society are seeing increased traffic around whether Trump will be removed "Prices on the “Yes” side rose in recent days, from 28.6 percent to 35.1 percent within the last month. It is the second highest the number has been since the start of the second term"

It's TIME... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

NO lies DETECTED!!! #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

Bloomberg reporter Katrina Manson's book "Project Maven" details the Pentagon's embrace of artificial intelligence and the companies supplying the underlying technology, including a New York startup that "used to do a wedding blog" before it "switched to doing weapons of war."

But he is probably 100% accurate…..

How many people from the first administration testified to the J6 committee that Trump had to be constantly held back from being even more horrible. Of course the second term would be without anyone but the most devoted sycophants and enablers.

DONALD TRUMP LAST WEEK: "We don't need the Strait of Hormuz!" DONALD TRUMP THIS WEEK: "OMG! OMG! Open the Strait of Hormuz or we will commit war crimes on you!!!!!!!!"

It’s worth saying, in the wake of Trump’s bizarre and vicious Easter morning tweet, that the Republican Party could have him out of office by the end of the day. This is on his cabinet and every Republican member of Congress.

To threaten another country, whom you attacked, and upon whom you've already exhausted much of your conventional weapons – with nuclear weapons ("...we're blowing up the whole country") – is to be psychotic. To reach any other conclusion is to have a child's naiveté.

After financing Jared Kushner’s 666 Fifth Avenue property in New York for $1.2 billion, gifting a $400 million private jet to Trump and vast sums of money and luxury in exchange for security, they now realize they've been conned and betrayed by Trump and his family. #donthecon #illegalwar #qatar

‘It started with a tip-off’: how a Guardian investigation exposed child sex trafficking on Facebook and Instagram

I wish more people understood the terror disabled people face when dealing with housing insecurity, poverty and unsafe caregivers. Many in the community are forced to rely on abusive people for survival. It shouldn’t be this way. We desperately need more support & resources.

Iran… If you’re listening. Release the Epstein files. Or just make them up - because we need all the help we can get.

If my father had said anything even half as deranged as this. We would have been having a family meeting within 24 hours to decide exactly which senior home he was moved in to. The fact that his children, cabinet secretaries, congress are not speaks volumes about their craven nature.

It's way past time we call Jewish land thieves in The West Bank 'Settlers' they are stealing land that doesn't legally OR MORALLY belong to them. So #ABCnewsAustralia quit being polite and say how it is THIEVES 😡

Leonard Leo is a lawyer, but he's never argued a case in court. He's never held elected office. But for years he rebuilt the American legal system, resulting in the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority. (Published Oct. 2023)

Ladies and Gentlemen: America's "most Christian" president ever?

I'm extremely proud of our special operations forces pulling off this rescue. What I'm not proud of is that they shouldn't be there in the first place because we're in a war of choice led by imbeciles putting our troops in harm's way.

Narcissists hate holidays, so they try to make it all about them. I wish to God we could have a nice holiday without worrying if he's going to blow the world up, but here we are.

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

If the president of the company I work for tweeted what the President of the US tweeted today he would be suspended and fired within a day lol

Please Iran, release what you have of the Epstein files.
