If Trump is the best that Moscow could find to be a Russian asset, what the heck do they regard as a liability?

Extraordinary story in Poland. Yet more sabotage. Culpability not yet established, but all eyes will be on Russia. Poland has already arrested a total of 55 people only recently for illegal activities on Russia’s behalf. Hybrid warfare becoming part of European life. www.ft.com/content/485f...

It might actually be part of a fiesta, but I still reckon it says a lot about those taking part.

I came across this through another repost, and it's definitely worth taking some time out to read it all.

I’m absolutely exhausted in the best possible way. I love us. We did it! #NoKings

This is a lie. There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years. But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Who knew that Matthew Syed has a sense of humour!

Say what you like about him, but Frogface is never knowingly right.

Love it - shades of Morecambe and Wise!

This has been known for eons, but now with social media and other platforms, it's been perfected. Manipulation has become common. I remember when truth and honesty and integrity and morality were important traits.

Russia's attempt to put one of its puppets into power in Moldova has failed. We must ensure it experiences the same failure in the UK.

Either the London Press Council has a wicked sense of humour, or it reflects on how low standards have fallen.

🔴BBC Accused of Pro-Reform Bias as Lib Dems Launch Campaign to End ‘Wall to Wall’ Farage Coverage They accuse the BBC of “following Farage around like a lost puppy” and have complained to Ofcom to demand fair coverage bylinetimes.com/2025/09/09/b...

You had your chance to remove and bar him from the presidency after Jan 6. And you chickened out.

Peter Thiel is an idiot, blood constantly regenerates itself from your bone marrow. It is your organs that need replacing. They are not only very rich, they are also very stupid.

Douglas Carswell has skirted the line and now he's crossed it. This is disgusting racism from a former MP who now demonstrates who and what he is.

When we talk about authoritarian oligarchs, Putin is the model. He is worth some $200 billion, kills dissidents and rigs elections. And he started this horrific war in Ukraine. We all want peace. But any peace talks must include the Ukrainians. It’s their country.

Paranoia, misinformation, and glee: inside Bristol’s far right protest

🔴The Trump-Putin Alaska Summit and Europe's Munich Moment “The uncomfortable truth is this: if Ukraine falls, Europe won’t be debating whether to confront Russia, but when” @andrewchak.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/08/11/t...

One of the first sites I came across when I joined Bluesky, and one that is definitely worth a follow if you want more objective reporting.

Well done @itvnews.bsky.social on pointing out the soaring rise in immigration “since we completed Brexit” - a key factor. This should be pointed out to Farage (who championed Brexit) in every interview

Humour can be very useful for putting across important information and this is a good, but sad, example. Well worth reading many of the comments as well.

❗ The UK Government must prioritise our relationship with the EU over sucking up to Trump. The EU is our nearest, biggest and more reliable trade partner. Trump's US is hostile, chaotic and has proven it's no friend of the UK.

I have commented on this in the thread, but thought it worth another repost as well. Even by current events in the US I find it hard to believe that the DHS message is genuine. Please let me know if this is actually how they now do business.

Today my wife and I were each expecting a parcel. I got quite smug when her delivery notification showed it was actually in next door's front garden. An hour later I received notice that my parcel had been delivered to the back porch - next door again! Karma, I suppose! The joy of home deliveries!

Manipulating the Stock Market as President so the entire country loses while you and your billionaire buddies gain isn't just Insider Trading, it is Treason.

What privatisation has done to you.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

A distasteful map in more ways than one.

In the absence of my own mother I will take this opportunity to wish all other mothers out there a very happy Mothers' Day. Hope you all got breakfast in bed!

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated. The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said. By @sheinvestigates.bsky.social

Good work by Dan Neidle and his team, and well worth having a look.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

There's an honest message on this bus, and it's from those who would pay. Why the delay?

Led By Donkeys excellent as usual.

Even in these turbulent times it's reassuring to see that a sense of humour is alive and well in the US.

Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.
