Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

Les Wexner, named 1300 times in the Epstein Files, called to testify before Congress. Trump, named 1,500,000+ times in the Epstein Files says "it's time to move on from the Epstein Files."

LEFT: Someone who appears in the Epstein files over a million times. Epstein called him his "best friend." RIGHT: Someone never mentioned in the Epstein files—even once. And she never met him. So guess which one is being hauled before our corrupt, cover-upping Congress to testify about Epstein.

There has been a long slide in the relative value of basic benefits over the past decades. Even long before the austerity or general stagnation of recent times, income support and unemployment benefits were not routinely adjusted in line with rising living standards among the wider population.

Gonna post it again... Please give it some exposure. It might not result in anything even if it got 100K signatures, but if it doesn't get any it definitely won't and we're seeing more and more evidence rather than conjecture around these murky, opaque orgs. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/75...

Blimey. Looks like Matt Goodwin, who seems to think the Handmaid's Tale is an instruction manual, is in the pay of an Orban think tank, funded by Russian oil money.

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.

Trump, faced with the Epstein scandal, opts for denial and cover-ups, turning every evasion into a media fireworks display. His failed maneuvers only highlight his inability to manage his own demons and extinguish the blaze he fuels himself. #ProudBlue #DV1

Farage said Andrew Tate was an "important voice for men." Andrew Tate ran a grooming gang, ruthlessly manipulating, abusing and exploiting teenage girls. He is facing charges of rape and human trafficking in the UK and Romania. www.theguardian.com/politics/art...

The Guardian: Trump donor who criticized offshoring to close Ohio plant and move work to China www.theguardian.com/business/202...

‘You’re the grandson of an “illegal immigrant,” kicking out other Cubans to be shipped off to places like Gitmo, even while you, personally, strangle the island (and in the process result in the withdrawal of Cuban doctors who’ve been keeping other countries healthy, causing yet more death).’

It's the world view of rich white men who employ nannies and send their kids to boarding school

Asked back in 2019 about reports of his work with Steve Bannon, Boris Johnson described them as “the biggest load of codswallop I have ever heard.” His spokesperson did not respond to requests for comment following the publication of Bannon's messages to Epstein confirming the relationship

I like the government pivot to reminding voters that Farage is an avowed enemy of NATO & Europe & an ardent admirer of Vladimir Putin, who routinely orders the murders of critics & opponents. It is politically effective & morally essential.

Keir Starmer told The Independent that in the last decade, we have seen a "Britain that has turned inward, a Britain that has not been able to assert itself and influence others on the world stage or the European stage". The UK's rightful place is at the heart of Europe - let's return to it.

One in five children infected in the recent London measles outbreak were reportedly hospitalised. Don’t believe the anti-vaxxers when they say “it’s a mild disease” or “it’s better to get immunity naturally”. It isn’t.

I’ve been thinking about Canada’s intention to become more economically independent from the United States, and to connect more with Europe. We should do the same thing with our city-building. Our city-building has always been too influenced by the U.S, especially with car dependency. Thoughts?

It *literally* does. Thats what it is. A document which says youre British.

💙💛 "Look at the price, at the pain Ukraine has gone through, at the suffering it has faced. It is Ukrainians who are holding the European front. Behind our people stand an independent Poland, the free Baltic states, Moldova, and Romania - without dictators," - Zelenskyy rubryka.com/en/2026/02/1...

It only took them a year to figure out what everyone else already knew.

A review of the proceedings from four major computer-science conferences showed that none from 2021, and all from 2025, had fake citations. arxiv.org/abs/2602.058... #AI #LLMs #Hallucinations #Misconduct #ScholComm

“You also need us.” “When Russia goes to war, they go alone because they don’t have allies. When America goes to war, many of us go with you — and we lose our people along the way.” - Kaja Kallas youtube.com/watch?v=P1jH...

Great sitting down with Brian Tyler Cohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how we’re building a community of changemakers at the Obama Foundation. youtube.com/watch?v=uI-hgSE5QIw

Trump’s Nazi thugs don’t care “Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped. - Reuters”

They made a big mistake.

This election is pivotal.

Left: Keir Starmer, "We are not the Britain of the Brexit years any more" Right: Ursula von der Leyen, "Europe, in particular the UK, should come closer" Anyone else fancy rejoining the EU?

Just watched our Secretary of State laud the Scientific Revolution and deride climate science as a “cult,” almost in same breath. The distorting effect of fossil fuel’s corrupt influence is astounding, like a warped fun-house mirror.

Bill Maher: Trump ended government legal authority to regulate what causes pollution. The EPA cannot protect us against pollution. Stephanie Ruhle: The president invited oil and gas executives to Mar-A-Lago, and he, if you deliver me $1B in campaign donations, I will pay you back in spades.

I have asked the BBC to scrutinise + correct the factually inaccurate claims made by Mr Nigel Farage about why net migration fell in 'Political Thinking with Nick Robinson' Here is the link if you want to do something like this. www.bbc.co.uk/contact/comp...

They just want you to die...quickly Trump's CDC is canceling $600M in HIV and STD funds to four Democrat-led states www.denver7.com/politics/the...

No problem. Nothing to see here. It's all fine. We can all trust Trump to be honest about his "popularity". www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

This is the best explainer I’ve seen on Ratcliffe’s motives for his racist outburst. We shouldn’t enter into any ‘debate’ on immigration on these terms. It’s a deeply dishonest and dangerous call to arms by cynical people who prioritise profit over everything else www.theguardian.com/football/202...

🚨 Before Epstein’s arrest, Steve Bannon worked to rebuild his image, files show. On his podcast, Bannon has alleged an Epstein “cover-up.” It turns out he had far more firsthand knowledge of Epstein than he told his followers. www.nbcnews.com/tech/interne...

👀 Elon’s emails to Epstein. Location: Starbase, Texas. Excellent work @ledbydonkeys.org

Mate, it was 1066. Move on.

‘Jim Ratcliffe has moved to Monaco to save £4 billion worth of tax in this country one might question whether he is the patriot we need to comment on this issue' Home Office minister Jake Richards speaks to #BBCBreakfast Ratcliffe claimed UK had been "colonised by immigrants"

Ridiculous clickbait excuse of a politician - elected on a Labour ticket.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

Pam Bondi just refused to turn around and look at the survivors. She refused.

English isn't native to the Americas. I don't remember Republicans wanting to investigate opera singers, K-Pop groups, or Celine Dion.

Helluva statement from Colorado Rep Crow (D) on the Trump administration's failure to indict him and others

Black and brown immigrants from around the world were never, as Trump said, "poisoning the blood of our country". One white immigrant from Australia and another from South Africa poisoned the minds of Republicans.

I have no problem w security guarantees for Russia: once it has retreated inside its internationally recognised borders, Ukraine & the West should promise not to attack RU territory. But Grushko is asking for guarantees of continued Ukrainian insecurity, not Russia’s security. That’s unacceptable.

Without a clearer sense of direction, Labour's doomed. So, by far the best thing that these two could do now would be to stop worrying about how best to become PM if and when Starmer eventually goes and instead think really, really hard about what they would do were they chosen to replace him.

I agree with every word of this @daliborrohac.bsky.social www.politico.eu/article/time...

This is absolutely insane. The sort of Kafka-esque nightmare you would find in a Philip K Dick book set far in the dystopian future. A window on America tumbling into autocracy. www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

Something magnificent about Kemi Badenoch's self-confidence, and her claim that the Mandelson affair is entirely down to her asking questions at PMQs. Like a toddler who thinks their plastic steering wheel is controlling the car.

Of course, it's expensive to keep people locked up and feeding them. So much easier to have people being free, working and feeding themselves but Trump can't figure that out, like the human and business disaster he is.

Perfect
