In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.

Still awaiting that statement from the NRA…

NEW: this is how the US press would report on this if it was happening in a ‘shithole country’. It’s an execution. But it also reveals how weak Trump really is open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Horrified & heartbroken by the latest ICE murder in Minneapolis. Alex Pretti was an intensive care nurse & beloved son. Americans, please know how many millions of us here in the UK are sickened by Trump and his fascist thugs, and stand in solidarity with all of you resisting them 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Maybe Trump's lawsuit is having the effect he intended?

So the official story as told by Noem is that ICE was in the middle of deporting a violent immigrant criminal when Alex walked up to them pointing a gun at them and fearing for their lives they defended themselves, and they say this despite all the videos proving otherwise. NUREMBERG TRIALS. Period.

Who’s going to be the first team to pull out of the FIFA World Cup?

he knows that we know he's lying. he's telling us we're all terrorists to him. he's telling us that to dissent is now a capital crime. he's telling us they'll shoot us, too, and they'll say we deserved it.

“Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.” Dimitri Drekonja, MD, MS White. Hot. Rage. cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thu...

We’ve placed the available videos of the shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis today into the same synchronised timeline and are continuing to analyse further.

Ramping up the gaslighting to insane levels

Footage from today's witness in the pink coat, recording the beating and murder of a US citizen by several ICE officers.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

NEW: ICE officers in Minn executed a man they were holding on ground. I'm not exaggerating. This is real footage published in Minnesotta Star Tribune. Officers surround man. They are beating them. Then you hear shot as one ICE officer executes the man. Every officer involved MUST be charged!

‘Toxic empathy’ - that’s a new one. How low can the Torygraph sink? Shame on you Caroline Downey.

As great powers abandon rules and values for their own interests, middle powers like Canada have a choice: compete with each other for favour or act together with impact.

Trump in Davos, Switzerland: "Without us, right now you'd all be speaking German". German is the main language of Switzerland.

Mark Carney earned a rare standing ovation in Davos. Read the full text of his speech here

With all the crap going on in the world, it’s good to be reminded of the beauty nature. It doesn’t care who’s in the White House or that Greenland may be invaded. I took these photos a few months ago on a walk through a woodland in East Sussex when there was still a bit of autumn colour.

“We have embedded a notorious US military surveillance company whose founder is a close ally of President Trump into the heart of our military at a moment in which the US is threatening to invade our NATO ally, Greenland.” – @carolecadwalla.bsky.social on Palantir https://bit.ly/4sHG9al

This isn't satire. No jokes. This is the President of the United States telling Norway that he's going to take Greenland from Denmark because Norway didn't give him a peace prize. This isn't Orange Man Bad. This is Orange Man Mad.

This is pretty much the only post anyone should need to understand that Farage is a traitor, a conman and a populist simpleton who must *never* be given power.

The guy is incredible. Winning everything out there!

Right, I’m trying again. Are there any #RadicalLeftistScum on BlueSky? I’ve connected with loads on Threads, but that platform is part of Meta (bad!). I’d much prefer to use this network to engage with people. #RLS

Every dictator in history has claimed that they’ll only use their powers to go after the worst of the worst. Every dictator in history has lied. Donald Trump is no different.

Just look at the X and Threads accounts of the US Dept. of Homeland Security and the Dept. of Labor. We’re entering into "Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer" territory here.

If you search for ‘hunger strikers’ on the BBC, the only stories you can find are those about people who have STOPPED their strike. Not a word about those STILL starving themselves for being jailed in support of Palestine Action. Nothing. That is censorship. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I really don’t know what to think about what’s happening in the USA right now. Is the slogan on the podium, ‘One of ours, all of yours’ deliberate? I mean, they know its origin don’t they? Do they really feel that untouchable now? It looks like the country is sliding headlong into fascism.

From last July - the story of ICE and how Trump turned into it his personal thug army podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/o...

I learned about Sophie Scholl and The White Rose when I was in school and lately nearly every day, I think about her. Her strength and bravery cannot be quantified. She would be appalled by the MAGA movement. May she never be forgotten.

Renee Nicole Good’s family shut down their GoFundMe the moment it surpassed their needs and urged people to help others instead. That level of integrity throws the grifting of Erika Kirk into an even harsher contrast.

Any other radical leftist scum out there? #RLS ✊😊🩷🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️

It takes a special kind of right-wing British political party to literally sell black shirts. Are you going to tell them? Or shall I?

‘The chill wind from the White House is already rippling through New Broadcasting House.’ @lewisgoodall.com reacts after the BBC edited out an anti-Trump line from a historian’s lecture.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

● Andrew Windsor remains 8th in the line of succession. ●King Charles III will privately fund his new living arrangements despite Andrew being very rich indeed ● Actually we don't know how wealthy Andrew is because his mother's will is sealed for 90+ years ● Sleep well serfs. ● Know your place.

Another 200 arrested as the absurd anti-Palestine action nan-hunt continues

#starmer ##palestine-action #palestine

No irony in these BBC headlines side by side. Criminal investigation for supporting the Palestinians, no investigation for killing Palestinians.

MORNING ALL! Today is the 9th anniversary of the Brexit vote. How do we all think it’s gone so far?

Nine years ago the godfather of Brexit, Lord Daniel Hannan, predicted life in Brexit Britain in June 2025. Roll the tape… (VO by @gavinesler.bsky.social. Part 2 below👇)

TRUTH: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

As Gaza faces mass starvation, a humanitarian flotilla carrying aid was bombed — while governments looked away.

An absolute masterclass in how the UK media platforms and normalises far right politics. This is how Farage wins.

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Turns out Zelenskyy is good at standing up against dictators.

The fate of future generations put in jeopardy because of ‘pressure from some investors.’ The identity of these investors should be made public so those future generations know who to vilify (and so our generation can put pressure on them to reconsider). #climatechange #bp #fossilfuels
