3 October 1900 | A German Jew, Kurt Rosenberg, was born in Berlin. In December 1942 he was deported to #Auschwitz. He did not survive. --- Video about the history of Auschwitz: https://youtu.be/Fxnl5HTygrs

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

The most corrupt US administration in the country’s history

Support independent booksellers.

Bloody hell.

CUOMO: I'm not used to seeing naked propaganda on a government website. Are you worried about violating the Hatch Act? TURNER: We're not worried at all. This is about letting the American people know what's going on. C: It's not true. That's why I'm bringing it up. That's why it's propaganda.

It’s also very serious. My daughter graduated from uni this summer & works part-time at an art gallery and part-time as a waitress to earn extra income. We’re both dual Dutch/American citizens but she’s been raised here in Devon since she was 8, so sounds British. After work last night she said 1/?

“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏 PM Keir Starmer

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

The level of impatience in modern politics is helping populists. Presumably related to social media. "I need tangible results now" is simply unrealistic. But I keep hearing it from people who should know better.

YouTubers are earning up to £20,000 a month by making provocative videos that have targeted a Norfolk hotel used to house asylum seekers. Hotels up and down the country are regularly targeted by content creators known as ‘auditors’.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Autumn is soup season and it’s probably no coincidence that it’s also my favourite season. Homemade chicken and spaetzle soup for dinner tonight. #soup #autumn

Bevan perfectly summed up the root of many of society’s current problems.

Compulsory 'voluntary work' is just unpaid Labour. Effectively they want to make migrants do community service for the crime of wanting to live in the UK

Brilliant

Exactly this

They like him because he gets away with what they would like to do, but can’t.

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

Beautiful Devon sunrise this morning. #sunrise #photography

Some big implications for journalism, too, where reporters often mistake trending posts as a reasonable reflection of public opinion.

Farage built Brexit, and Brexit broke Britain. Nigel Farage is the cause of the mess we’re in - not the solution.

🚨 This scene comes to us from Iowa. The man recording this atrocious attack on an innocent man makes it clear that he is a combat veteran, and explains that he is going to video their crimes and he is not to be touched: “I will knock you the fuck out.” 1/2

BREAKING: Starbucks just announced a $1 billion restructuring and will close 59 unionized stores — nearly 10% of union locations. It includes the Roastery in Seattle, one of its busiest shops. CEO Brian Niccol made $100 million in four months last year.

The love affair continues …

Maybe Trump is criticising Khan because he’s worried about the Muslim man running as democrat candidate for NYC mayor. Zohran Mamdani is popular, and Trump might want to demonise him by making it sound like London’s Muslim mayor has turned it into a dystopian hellscape. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Thing is, this would be an entirely believable speech by him.

she kept finding trump officials?

Kamala Harris: "It feels chaotic, but what I would offer you is what we are witnessing is the swift implementation of a plan that was decades in the making. Project 2025 didn't just drop out of thin air. That's a product of decades of work. Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation ... "

I know with absolute certainty that if Keir Starmer had been in government there would have been no PPE VIP Lane. Don’t ever tell me, Labour are like Tories.

British media pumps out daily propaganda pieces for Farage, fails to offer *any scrutiny* and basically legitimises rampant racism, then puts on its ‘innocent face’ and clutches its pearls at the rise of the far right… What a grim betrayal of our democracy. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/how...

How…….unsurprising

Wow. Not at all surprising, but wow. Blatant corruption is perfectly fine (encouraged, even) in this administration.

Stephen Colbert is all in: He plays the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel suspended. You love to see it.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Candace Owens is married to George Farmer, former chairman of the UK arm of Turning Point. She’s grifting off of stirring the extreme right wing culture pot. Brigitte is right to sue. About time they face the consequences of their blatant lies.
