AOC: “You are the Attorney General of the United States of America & you don't want to hold anyone of these pedophiles accountable — resign or be impeached"

The thing about Epstein Island is it will still be running. Just on another island.

“individuals who endorse dominance-oriented masculine norms are more likely to view authority figures as legitimate even when those figures are accused of misconduct (Schermerhorn et al., 2022)”

Since Oct. 26, 2025, about two dozen Buddhist monks from around the world have been on a pilgrimage to spread a message of peace throughout the US. They started in Fort Worth, TX, and expect to arrive at the WH on Feb. 10. Free link: archive.ph/qDrIK

Looking at my stash of yarn & I 💜 this.

We all live in Jeffrey Epstein's world now. That's what we can't face. It's our world. Where sexual desire for children is protected, victims receive no justice & the President of what used to be called the free world is Jeff's friend. This is Jeff's World now. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Fascinating research on how often and for what reasons female economists are interrupted while presenting their work. Obviously this has applications outside economics. Nice to see actual hard data backing this up, instead of being gaslit about how it's all in our minds.

He’s beyond words 🙁

Radiant snow moon on this cold and icy apropos night. ⁣What a soulful delight. The heart feels the pulse to dance again under its ancient guiding light. #poetry #moon #fullmoon #snowmoon

Once again @marshfamilysongs.bsky.social find the song & words to remind us of what matters. Community & neighbourliness will always overcome hatred.

My last event in Halifax, West Yorkshire before I move to Scotland 😁

Finally emerging from the haze of a chest infection 😀

Exactly this!

There is no way in hell the United States under the Trump regime can host the World Cup in a few months. They are murdering citizens in broad daylight, threatening war against NATO, and lawlessly kidnapping children and foreign heads of state. The world has to organize a boycott. It’s not safe.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Unbelievable. Yet entirely believable. How Trump decided he wanted Greenland, from a man who was in the room when it happened. youtube.com/shorts/b-yvG...

I was interviewed by @jamesmcenaney.bsky.social for the Herald this week - we discussed my new article with Dr Cal Horton on trans children's rights, what people need to know, and what can be done to support young people. We also touched on the wider issues facing trans-positive research!

NEW: this is how the US press would report on this if it was happening in a ‘shithole country’. It’s an execution. But it also reveals how weak Trump really is open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Anne Frank wrote these words in 1943 while hiding, while families were being pulled apart. She wasn’t describing chaos. She was describing process. Normalized cruelty. Systems doing what systems do when nobody stops them. This is history as a warning. #DefundICE

Vote every time you can. Even if you don’t think your vote will change anything you are exercising a right. These disappear all too quickly in authoritarian regimes.

Another summary execution on the streets by agents working for the US government. Unutterably tragic.

Is watching a football match worth losing your life? That's the gamble you now have to take with World Cup games in the USA.

What is wrong with these people 😱 What kind of ‘leaders’ approve of these acts. Having said that they also approve of the genocide in Gaza 😱

Trump is taking up too much band width leaving little time and energy to deal with other problems. The UK needs to refocus its attention back to Europe and the EU. That is where our actual ‘special relationship’ lives. Rejoin a CU, SM and eventually the EU to safeguard our future.

If you want to understand what is happening right now & what’s at stake, please listen to this conversation I had with historian Robert Kagan. Europe has to wake up FAST.

Maybe Greenland could invade us instead?

Very powerful wake up call 👏

Fascism is anti-human. It requires the complete abdication of your ethics, morals and values. The death of your soul. This is the price. There is no safety or salvation in staying quiet or looking the other way.

Great 🧵 👍🏻

My latest on failure in both the US & UK to acknowledge what we are seeing with our eyes & hearing with our ears. The old world is over. And we have to act fast. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

It seems such a stupid thing to do - punish your own country & citizens more. What is the end game for the authoritarian tRump admin 🤔

Powerful words that apply across the world to all oppressive regimes 👏

One of my all time favourite shows ❤️

How easy it is to forget, as Trump attempts to subjugate yet another proud people in Greenland 🇬🇱 This time, he’s going to regret it, because Europe has had enough of his nonsense.

"I'm an anti-Zionist, because I'm the daughter of holocaust survivors. The Shoah is baked into my DNA, and that's why I call for Palestinian liberation. It's not anti-semitic to be anti-Zionist. It's not anti-semitic to call what's happening in Gaza genocide" Elsa Auerbach - Jewish-American Author

Nasser Mashni 👏👏👏🇵🇸 Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism! I trust NSW Premier Minns gets the message 🤔
