I'd challenge anyone to read this outstanding book and come away telling me that the Royal Family are a force for good. An in depth and shocking expose not just of the grubby money grabbing dim witted Yorks but the whole Firm and it's acts of self preservation.

The constitution provides that states run elections. The federal govt does not. There is no legal authority for Mullin to take over elections, issue mandates & rules, or threaten elections officials with prison for failure to comply with unlawful orders. bsky.app/profile/atru...

“American lungs are paying the price for Canadian inaction, year after year,” - letter from 4 Republican members of the US House of Representatives, from a party that loves to deny that climate change exists, and does the bidding of oil companies and tech companies demanding data centres.

Yikes. Read this if you're feeling brave.

This is how to speak to every single one of those sycophants.

He should have gone to prison for pressuring Brad Raffensperger to “find” 11,780 votes. That’s the very definition of election interference. We all heard the call.

Warner on CBS: I was embarrassed that the president went before our country and networks like yours carried this as news as opposed to a rehash of falsehoods. It is incumbent upon you and any responsible journalist to pushback on this.

A little friendly disagreement. Thatcher left office 36 years ago. Thatcherism didn't. Those are different things. Politicians leave. Political settlements can last for generations. I think we're still living inside the one she created.

There's a page on CBBC about the fires but otherwise the UK might as well not be suffering

So the evil masterminds who supposedly rigged the election to defeat Trump in 2020 because he was a threat to the Deep State then let him win in 2024 and allowed his party to also win the senate and house?

What a dreadful BBC headline

I look at this and ask how much input did Hakyult / Chandra have in these sort of pay deal packages. Indeed, how much did Thames Water customers pay Hakyult to “prevent nationalisation”? bsky.app/profile/prem...

Todd Blanche has been the lead obstructionist in the Epstein cover-up. He isn't here to serve the people — he's here to serve Trump. The American people and the survivors deserve better.

The Washingtons not only "owned" hundreds of enslaved people, they deliberately moved the nine they had with them in Philadelphia every six months to dodge laws in Pennsylvania that would have emancipated them. To deny that history is to deny Americans of that truth. 1/2 apnews.com/article/slav...

I know a lot of folks want big swift revolutionary change. But change IS incremental. We build power. We build relationships, recruit, engage, care for needs, fill in gaps, address what we have access to and influence over. Make time to plan, build, shift, grow, care, solve. Change the world.
