If Democrats are sincerely concerned about the Trump / MAGA threat to election security, they need loudly, publicly, and relentlessly demand international election monitors. 1/4 #Tulsi #Atlanta #elections #Trump #democracy #electionintegrity #fascism #FBIraid #FultonCounty

I've just voted to scrap the abhorrent two child cap. Abolishing the two-child benefit cap is the single most effective thing the govt can take to alleviate child poverty. It will lift 67,580 North East children - including 2,610 children in Jarrow and Gateshead East - out of poverty. (1/3)

this guy is getting appropriately ratioed but I want to summarise the issue very succinctly, as somebody who owns a house and *has been a landlord*: everybody needs shelter. Housing is an essential service. Like water, like electricity, like the roads. Therefore, it should not be an investment.

I am absolutely horrified by how easily I can cut 200+ (And by 200+, I mean 312) words in a final read through of a 2700 word essay.

Given Americans' short attention span and need for excitement, I'm quite surprised there's an American version of this. I'm amused that it was procured by WGBH (a superb PBS station) in 1996, the year I left America and moved to the UK - it started airing in 1997.

If you’re in Minnesota and know anyone who needs a flight home from detention, reach out to Ashley Fairbanks by email at: [email protected] Folks have donated 5 million sky miles to help out, so please share the word.

I regret to inform you that Baby Satan is back on his bullshit

i truly hate how much we are living in a bad script

These deviants evidently are the type who would’ve seen one of most iconic war images and reacted, salivating, “more please” rather than recoiling in horror or at least stepping in reflection to question what was happening.

The murderers of Alex Pretti were long-time veterans of CBP who hailed from Texas. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

This is the most ghoulishly grotesque idea I've seen AI techbros offer yet, and that was a *high* bar to clear. These people have no soul or conscience or humanity.

When your evil intentions come back to bite you where it counts.

Fascinating that there’s damaging stories on so many casual acquaintances of Jeffrey Epstein from this tranche of documents released by the DoJ, but almost nothing on his best friend for years, Donald Trump. Feels like one hell of a coincidence, doesn’t it?

Ha, Rev @keakealani.bsky.social - you'll LOVE today's pangram!

He can't remember whether (or not) a convicted pedophile gave him $75,000? Gosh, I can see how that might slip your mind if you don't have good record keeping.

This is a key point

…to avoid possible investigations, prosecution and imprisonment, surely…

this is the most obvious attempt to change the narrative ever, and the letter is objectively quite funny

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

A note from our editors:

ANGELA!!!!!!!!!!!!! #NightManager

Let's get them some consequences - jail for life without parole.

There’s a term used among Border Patrol agents for undocumented migrants that’s only shared with recruits after they complete the academy: “tunc.” It refers to “the sound our flashlights make when we beat them in the head.”

Congratulations to Arsenal's women, who become the intercontinental/world champions

Unfortunately, no matter how much I talk about the overtly white supremacist origins of what we’re seeing unfold right now — it seems far too few people grasp how literal that phenomenon of far-right mainstreaming is. 1/3

Any brown or black refugee child would get 'SPEAK ENGLISH!' You'd demand they *lose* their cultural/linguistic identity. You'd expect them to navigate UK systems flawlessly after 4 yrs, yet Ukrainians still have support. We know why. Pick a side - all or none.

Immediately, please.

2017 throwback to exactly 9 years ago today: Atlanta airport, protesting the Muslim Ban in Trump term 1. Who could've seen this shit coming, I ask -- except for anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention.

HEY, ICE. WITH MY WHOLE CHEST: GET. THE. HELL. OUT. OF. MY. STATE. www.instagram.com/reel/DUJgdes...

Unpopular opinion: If you are a Brit who wants to buy a property on the continent, you should be asked how you voted in 2016, and if you voted Brexit, you should be refused property, long-term visas, and any chance of settling.

Gotta say, it was pretty obvious from the crime scene photos that Fia's dad didn't kill the family and himself because the *long barrelled rifle was on the ground at least a foot away from him like it had been placed there*. I could have told you that 4 episodes ago. #Blackshore

"Without trees, they were 'forced' to burn millions of blubber rich penguins to keep warm." You weren't 'forced' to burn living animals. You chose to. #PoleToPole

I mean, there's really no other conclusion to be drawn here besides they were all in on it all along, and even the ones who weren't knew about it but covered it up, and by 'all', I mean literally everyone with any power and wealth in the modern era.

Antarctica is beautiful and I'm fond of #JaneMcDonald - but the first episode of #FromPoleToPole made me wish we'd never discovered Antarctica. The tourist voyeurism is the worst of us, really. We need to realise that most things are better if we leave them be.

Alternate headline: White House reporters get snookered again www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

Even grosser than Trump's reference to Alex Pretti an "insurrectionist": He says a dead man's "stock has gone way down" over damage to "very expensive" vehicle. We all know Trump values wealth over human life, but the financial sector / capitalism speak here is just ... something to behold.

Maybe it was a sign when the person Trump put in charge of the DOJ's Civil Rights division was a protege of Jeffrey Hart at Dartmouth, a man who wrote this column in 1977.

hey democrats, theyre burning the first amendment, time to wake up and say something

I am just a simple country political operative but I’m pretty sure that arresting journalists, tanking the economy, engineering widespread corruption all while shooting innocent mothers and VA nurses in the head in broad daylight with 1000 witnesses is not just unpopular but politically disastrous.

Well, you know, if journalists had actually done their jobs and not sanewashed him in 2015-16, we wouldn't be here.

All day, every day - but I'm not sure why the US needs this programme when it's happening in real time. Here's to the REAL traitors turning on each other.

Y’all need to recognize the significance of deploying ICE agents — immigration enforcement, let’s recall —for election interference. It’s not just about a fascist agenda. 1/2

I hereby doxx my cat by posting his photo and name online as retribution for his many crimes. Bluesky, meet Baby Satan. He is a vicious animal, and I’m not ashamed to say it. Come get me, DOJ.

Now do a general strike. Let's lose the performative marches that do nothing

White men in their 50s, 60s and 70s cause the most problems in this world.

If a feed algorithm consistently surfaces dangerous content to a user that's something that should not be happening in principle and the network in question should be obliged to fix it at source.

100%. Why do people constantly think we can't hold corporations to account? If they are doing something dangerous, they need to fall in line or FAFO, really. And it's so far past time to fix this. Block X, please.

This part.

This needs to be a bigger story not just for adults being radicalised online, but because he is a... c'mon everyone, you know the word: A TERRORIST. But you're not going to admit or do anything about how many of your terrorists are white men being radicalised online.
