BREAKING: The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refuses to undo the lower court’s order blocking Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops in Illinois. "We conclude that the district court's factual findings … were not clearly erroneous, and that the facts do not justify the President's actions."

Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva on Mike Johnson refusing to swear her in: "The excuses depending on the day keep changing ... the timing is the fact that I am the 218th signer to the discharge petition for the Epstein files"

Indeed 👇 #ScottishIndependence

I urge our nation to use this weekend's No Kings marches as a declaration of independence against the tyranny and lawlessness currently running this country. Use your voice. ACT PEACEFULLY. Protect yourself and your community. THERE ARE NO KINGS IN THE UNITED STATES.

Robert Jenrick calls Handsworth "a slum". The Prime Minister calls us "an island of strangers". Real leaders know that there's culture in every corner of the UK when you scratch below the surface. Real leaders don't punch down, they lift up.

Let this renewed threat against San Francisco be a warning to every community: Trump will not stop with L.A., Portland, D.C., or Chicago. Your city could be next. Using our servicemembers for law enforcement is illegal, and I'm prepared to do everything I can to block this threatened deployment.

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 73 out of the last 85 days. Epstein Shutdown.

FOX: The Washington post said all these terrible fearmongering things will happen if buses are free ZOHRAN: good news - we did it already and here’s what actually happened

Yeah, this is petty and not a real thing!

Cardiff will be the first UK city to introduce a surcharge for oversized SUVs and trucks, "while very large vehicles – those over 3,500kg – will be excluded from residential permits entirely."

I’m going to post this every day as breaking news! I’ve gotta be right one day!

No doubt this de-banking will also be splashed across the front pages of every single newspaper in the country and lead BBC bulletins for weeks on end too? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Scottish Labour for you.

Oh.

As many as 38% of viewers surveyed by the BBC say it is “ineffective” at being independent from the Government

As a friend who was planning to go to the 2026 WC told me, "this settles it". He won't.

A letter from war torn Portland Oregon, truly heartbreaking. Please pass along so others across the world can see how bad it is🤭 #DefendersOfDemocracy

There’s evidence of a growing concerted effort, by rich and organised American advocacy (free-speech) groups associated with Nigel #FarageRiots Reform party, setting their sights on the UK, influencing public mood and indeed politics itself. ….eye opening Listen to the @newsagents.bsky.social

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson calls Sunday's naked bike ride in protest of the Portland ICE facility and and Trump troop deployment "the most threatening thing I’ve seen yet" www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Another $20 billion. That is the face you make when you heist the US taxpayers for $40 billion two weeks before your midterm elections from the most corrupt America Last regime in history.

I've NEVER been a Member of a Political Party, until today. I saw the incredible Polls, suggesting that Nigel Farage will landslide a Westminster General Election. Farage as PM. SNP is the ONLY solution to Scottish Independence. Only a fool in Scotland now doesn't want this. I've Joined the SNP.
