The populist right don't give a crap about solving real societal problems. Just running a cretinous pantomime for people who mistake âowning the libsâ for improving their own lives â while the men at the top quietly fill their pockets and walk away richer than ever.

Fabulous how this is being reported as âGreat news from gracious Presidentâ and not âWorld still cowering under unpredictable whims of mad, senile Emperor.â

Anyone who contributed to this event - the politicians and journalists who normalised him or submitted to his narratives, around the world - should hang their fucking heads in shame. They've put us in the most dangerous geopolitical situation for a generation and left a people at risk of genocide.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesnât belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

This is an extraordinary front page for a British newspaper to run. Donald Trumpâs delinquency, derangement & imperilling of international security is somehow a stick with which to beat our own Prime Minister, who has negotiated the current horror show rather well. It is actually sickening.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public. I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are. 1/ Here's what I can share:

When Brexit was slammed for being an act of pure prejudice, all the Brexiters howled about âsovereigntyâ and âtaking back controlâ. Now, the very same people howl that we should just obey Trump and put our country in the firing line. They lied about everything. All of it. Every single part.

It's extremely clear that the US doesn't really have an objective here except to inflict maximum pain, and attacking water supply is going to end catastrophically for the entire region. It's not just a war crime, it's approaching a crime against humanity.

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

Imagine drumming on Double Barrel when you're 18, then going on to play on Police And Thieves, Pull Up To The Bumper, and a million crucial recordings. And, of course, Boops (a track I often get obsessed with). Like the LP title, Sly Dunbar was a Rhythm Killer. R.I.P.

She smiles at the man who shoots her and says she isn't mad at him. Clearly initiates the effort to leave when the aggressive agents arrive. The question now (not that this was in question) isn't who's telling the truth. It's when DHS had this video and knew that what they were saying was a lie.
