It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Generative AI is a cancer and it should be destroyed. That is all.

You alienated 5 progressives who would’ve actual showed up and voted for you in hopes of flipping one republican 🤡

This keeps happening.

Well done, Iceland! Eternal shame on the #EBU! #Eurovision

Following Eurovision’s decision to allow Israel’s participation, Spanish public broadcaster RTVE has withdrawn from the contest. The announcement split the screen between Israel’s performance and scenes of bombardment and starving children in Gaza. #Spain #eurovision #genocide

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Abbe Lowell, the attorney who is representing Letitia James: “I can't tell you a time in the federal system...where a federal prosecutor thought a case was strong enough to bring to a grand jury, and the grand jury said no.” @kaitlancollins.bsky.social

It's so wild that there's even discourse about Israel in Eurovision. If any other country in the world was inflicting the hell they are on innocent people it would be a no brainer. But naw, we're all supposed to pretend it's fine. "Why do Ireland feel so strongly about this?". Read a fuckin' book.

I’m American but I’ve followed Eurovision for ages. The heads banning Russia for political reasons during the war with Ukraine then saying they won’t ban Israel, despite the genocide in Gaza, and claiming politics shouldn’t affect the contest is absolute hypocritical bullshit. Free Palestine! 🇵🇸

I know the Italian people don't want their country to participate in Eurovision...

Extremely telling that Eurovision would rather have four countries drop out in boycott than ban one.

As someone said - what’s happening is not only because of 🇮🇱 but also because of 🇩🇪 and 🇦🇹. The leadership of both really believes their Holocaust guilt can be washed away with 🇵🇸 blood and we see the result of the coordinated campaign that they did together. #Eurovision

Alon Amir: 'nobody in Israel "really cares" that countries are withdrawing from the competition.' Proceeds to care, cope and seeth a lot. #Eurovision #EBU #GazaGenocide

Can’t wait until they also rule that California’s map to counter Texas is illegal. 🙄

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it. Let’s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

It seems like the Supreme Court has ruled that this type of egregious gerrymandering is in fact legal. So Democrats — let’s have it. Let’s get it going in every state

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

While Rubio was talking about the war in Ukraine, Trump fell asleep.

Donald Trump fell asleep during a Cabinet meeting, raising new questions about Joe Biden's health.

Ms. Rachel refuting Sarah Hurwitz better than I could... nothing is worth this

Sarah Hurwitz is actively speaking in favor of brainwashing kids and denying them access to sources that would contradict their narrative. You know where else they do that? Cults!

First Van Jones, then Sarah Hurwitz, now Hillary Clinton with these talking points about social media and carnage in Palestine … It’s clear the talking points are being distributed. By whom????

NEW: GRAND JURY REFUSES TO RE-INDICT LETITIA JAMES per @nicollewallace.bsky.social on Deadline White House. HAHAHAHA

Not again… #Eurovision But go ahead EBU and Martin Green. Keep telling yourself and the fantasy narrative that you have made for the contest as “apolitical” or as “a competition between broadcasters.”

Losing one of the big-five (Spain), biggest contributor outside the big-five (Netherlands) and the country who has won the competition more times than any other (Ireland) has been a beautiful painting of pointing a double-barrelled shotgun at one's own feet and squeezing both triggers

It is incredibly funny watching the EBU crash Eurovision into the ground in order to accommodate Israel.

Well... #Eurovision was fun while it lasted. What a mess. Imagine destroying your legacy while forcing a fake image of United by Music. Huge support to those countries standing by their word and dropping out. Eurofans, we will support each other through this. They can't kill our community and heart.

Well done RTÉ & Ireland. The correct decision. Israel should not be alllwed to use cultural events like Eurovision to whitewash their apartheid genocidal crimes. www.rte.ie/entertainmen...

This time I do expect everyone to boycott Eurovision

The UK pulling out of Eurovision would be the right thing to do for two reasons. Firstly, and most importantly, it would send a message that we do not wish to associate with genocidal regimes (anymore). Secondly, we could totally kid ourselves that we would’ve won if we’d just competed.

To cap it all off, all of this maneuvering just to accommodate ONE country…and the EBU chose the heavier set of consequences anyways. The future of #Eurovision is even more bleak, is spirit is now on the verge of being extinct and the EBU have no one to blame but themselves if and when it dies out.

Just had time to collect my thoughts on what happened in the EBU’s geneal assembly regarding #Eurovision and sigh… (TLDR, the EBU do not come off great in this) 🧵

The #EBU may as well let #Russia back in. #Eurovision

Being a Eurovision fan today

👀

Am I right in thinking this? The #Eurovision budget is already set and as Spain and the Netherlands especially go, that shortfall has to be filled. This is about to get really expensive for a lot of smaller countries that take part. They may be forced to drop out due to the price tag. #EBU

I've loved Eurovision since I was a child, I clear my diary and host a party every year. This decision is indefensible and I'm out for 2026. #Eurovision

This is a really sad day but it is a day to stand and be counted. Well done to Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and the Netherlands. Iceland perhaps too. They are all the true winners. The party may be over for #Eurovision. The #EBU had the easiest test in history and they failed miserably.

@ebu.ch are you proud of yourself? You’ve killed Eurovision! You let a genocide country participate despite millions of fans asking against it. Do you realise you’ve lost money and fans simply because of your decision? Four countries are already gone because of it. Fuck you! #Eurovision

PLEASE PORTUGAL! JOIN THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY! BOYCOTT #EUROVISION

🇵🇹| La RTP de Portugal, anunciará hoy mismo si participa o no en el próximo Festival de Eurovisión 2026. #Eurovision • #ESC2026 • #Portugal

I'm sure Moroccanoil being the sponsors of #Eurovision have absolutely nothing to do with the EBU completely undermining the secret ballot request to ensure Israel's participation. Clearly no conflict of interest there whatsoever

Well, seems that's the end of Eurovision as we know it. Just because the EBU has no balls & no morals. Well done to the countries who've withdrawn. Will the UK do the right thing? Probably not. #Eurovision

Spain had not skipped a contest since joining in 1961. The Netherlands were one of the original seven. Ireland is a 7-time winner. The ESC is losing some really important countries in the fabric of its history. #Eurovision

This is Martin Green's responsibility by the way. #Eurovision
