The president is overruling science to eliminate measures that protect us from pollution and environmental damage, mainly to benefit multinational corporations that have thrown money at his campaign, ballroom, and family. It's simple corruption, and it will cost American lives and livelihoods.

Trump’s toxic, racist video surpasses previous levels of debasement www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, Amazon saw its corporate income taxes shrink by more than HALF last year, even as its profits climbed. But instead of investing the savings into their workforce, Amazon just announced thousands of layoffs and plans to spend $200B on AI. Textbook corporate greed.

Trump has posted on Truth Social about 65 times in the last 90 minutes, including a video he posted at 8:44 PM PT describing election fraud lies that shows racist AI images of Michelle and Barack Obama as monkeys at the end. I’ve confirmed this is real and watched it myself. 25th Amendment now.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Board of Peace - Season 1

Donald Trump again disparages Nato allies, claiming troops “stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines” while fighting in Afghanistan in support of US against Taliban. Only time Nato has ever invoked article 5 – that attack on one member represents attack on all – came after September 11.

Rambling Trump runs through his achievements as worried world watches on www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

There’s still a taboo in the media about describing Trump’s cognitive state. It’s rooted in the idea that the US President being insane sounds so preposterous that it must be an inaccurate slur. But it’s the hard truth. All of this is a result of Trump being an unstable narcissistic megalomaniac.

How Trump was elected president for the most powerful nation on Earth - TWICE - will go down in history as one of the truly biggest mysteries.

I think the White House badly underestimates the strength of the pan-European folk memory of 1930s appeasement, and how deep it still cuts. I suppose this is what happens when you learn in school that WW2 started in 1941 in Hawaii.

These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all. They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America. They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Best one I've seen yet...

Just a reminder that Trump is selling Venezuelan oil and depositing the proceeds into a bank account in Qatar that is NOT under any control by the US government or Congress. He's just stealing it. It really is that simple.

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

“We will always be there for NATO, even if they won’t be there for us", says the president of the only nation to have ever invoked Article 5 and been defended by the alliance.

A Dutch worker went viral after explaining to their American boss that they have a life outside work.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks. For the people in the back, this is satire and so well done…

New euphemism for "bottomless corruption and naked abuses of power" just dropped

Before every meeting or even phone call with Zelinskyy, Trump first calls Putin. That should tell you something. It is a strictly one-way street since he never calls Zelinskyy, EU leaders, or anyone else before talking with Putin. Clearly, Putin's approval matters to him.

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator? This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just now:

Guy Fawkes signature before and after watching this World Cup Draw

FIFA is a total embarrassment and Infantino is a cosplaying clown. Trump is nuts and probably doesn't even know where he is, and this pish-peace award garbage is a travesty. Had to switch #WorldCupdraw farce off but good luck Scotland.

“In 2017 there was not a single asylum seeker who arrived on a boat. Today we have 46,000 a year and do you know why? It was because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by Boris Johnson and championed by Nigel Farage. Nigel Farage should be here apologising” Daisy Cooper

The whole play of Trumpism: convincing working class people to blame other working class people—so billionaires can keep robbing us all.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.
