I beg you, Gorton and Denton.. Do not let that ghastly idiot into parliament. He's already got enough planet shaped chips on his shoulders, and one more won't hurt.

So..... how's YOUR week going so far?

Meanwhile, in Germany, the public weighs in on what they think of the Epstein Administration. #BrutalButAccurate

Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.

To save time: if you are a far right racist or basically unpleasant please block me Same with culture warriors who will go to war over toilets rather than economics, block me! .

BBC News - Costs from Trump's tariffs paid mainly by US firms and consumers, NY Fed says www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

One of the things that i have to give it to Trump is that it is so fucking easy to oppose everything he says, stands for, and believes in. There has not been one moral close call with anything he does. I have never had to say "well does he have a point." No. Everything he does has been awful

N'uff said....

To all our international friends attending the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony in Milan tomorrow: Please loudly boo JD Vance and his delegation. Make him feel like shit. We encourage it. We wish we could be there to boo him, too. Signed, the American people

Catherine O’Hara of Beetlejuice and Schitt’s Creek has died at age 71. RIP to one of the all-time greatest women in comedy. people.com/catherine-oh...

Our mistake was allowing our populace to be so uneducated & brainwashed by the likes of Fox News & Rush Limbaugh. Latinos here made the same fatal calculations that some German Jews did during Hitler's rise. That ended well for them.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Shout out to Robbie Dunbar who has died. If you listened to any reggae or dub in 70's and 80's he, along with Sly, was probably playing on it. Still listen today...great loss

Great. Everything is so fucked that somehow I agree with Greenwald. He nails it here, though.

Brits, please remember with everything that's happening in the US right now, that Nigel Farage wants the UK to create an ICE-style organisation for exactly the same stated purpose.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

It's time for a truly massive general strike. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-enough

Pam Bondi’s letter to MN Governor Walz: ICE will keep assaulting and murdering Minnesotans until you give me MN’s voter rolls. So the real purpose of ICE is clear to everyone; it’s not about making us safe, it’s about using ICE to tamper with elections #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Closest anyone will ever get to an apology from The Orange ManBoy - now he should say something similar to the other 31 countries whose military he insulted

RIP America. 😓

Prince Harry has done some daft stuff in his life but he's got a big heart and great courage. He can speak with authority about service in Afghanistan. #c4News

Trump said British Troops "stood back" in Afghanistan, but here are the coffins of British soldiers to prove they bravely fought & died ... TRUMP LIED as he ALWAYS DOES! F*CK the #OrangeDictator

PM of Poland: "On December 22, 2011, in Ghazni, Afghanistan, I took part in the farewell ceremony for the five fallen Polish soldiers. The American officers who accompanied me then, told me that America would never forget the Polish heroes. Perhaps they will remind President Trump of that fact."

Hi America! Your president seems unaware, so just a reminder that Article 5 of NATO has been invoked exactly once, by you after 9/11, and everyone responded. Canada, for example, spent 13 years, $18 billion, and 158 lives in Afghanistan for you.

Look at those faces! 💔 These are the Canadian heroes trump is insulting. Those scenes were repeated 159 times from Afghanistan. Anyone in Canada who still supports trump is an insult to our Canadian heroes and to Canada.

When measured on a per capita basis (fatalities as a percentage of total population), the allied nation that lost the most soldiers in Afghanistan was the Republic of Georgia. The USA, Denmark, and the UK came next with very similar loss rates. In other words, Trump lies.

BREAKING: Donald Trump’s attack on British troops in Afghanistan just got slammed by Keir Starmer. That level of disrespect isn’t being ignored.

White House declines to retract, or apologise for, what Trump said about record of Nato allies in Afghanistan - www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

For those outside the UK, the comments about European troops not "being on the front line" in Afghanistan has gone down like a lead balloon full of piss. I'll be surprised if they don't burn his golf course down 😂

Here are the names of the 158 Canadian Armed Forces members who lost their lives in Afghanistan following the invocation of Article 5 of the NATO Charter by the United States after the September 11 attacks.

Something I haven't seen really in US coverage which is *lighting up* Europe right now are these comments Trump made denigrating NATO casualties in Afghanistan. I have to be honest, I didn't see this even reported on here:

'Insulting and appalling': Starmer demands apology for Trump's comments on Nato in Afghanistan www.itv.com/news/2026-01...

65 Polish soldiers died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Trump's insults have not gone down well wyborcza.pl/7,75968,3255...

John Healey, Defence Secretary: "NATO’s Article 5 has only been triggered once. The UK and NATO allies answered the US call. And more than 450 British personnel lost their lives in Afghanistan."

Donald Trumps comments about NATO troops in Afghanistan has caused an absolute storm in the UK. From Prime Minister Starmer, down to the ordinary British citizen , the nation is fucking livid with Trumps vile remarks. I hope the US doesn't need NATO help anytime soon because they may not get it 😡

Left: President Trump insults British and NATO troops who responded to the 9/11 attack by helping the US in Afghanistan, saying they stayed off the front lines Right: Keir Starmer, "I find President Trump's words to be insulting and frankly appalling"

The former commander of Poland's GROM special forces in Iraq and Afghanistan has condemned Donald Trump for questioning the contribution of America's allies "This is the cynicism of a coward who hasn’t been on the front lines himself," said General Roman Polko.

UK PM Keir Starmer reacts to Cadet Bone Spurs claiming that allied troops stayed back behind the front lines in Afghanistan to avoid combat: “457 of our armed services lost their lives, many more were injured. So I consider Trump’s remarks to be insulting and apalling.”

It is quite clear the Afghanistan line has fucked off everyone in Parliament, isn't it. With good reason
