This is insanity. This is the sign of a government that has lost its mind.

Guess which of these stories came first on both the BBC One and Radio 4 bulletins.

“you come up with a mean nickname to call this guy on TV?” “sure did boss, real fuckin sexy just like you asked”

As Nick Clegg has taken on his ultimate form (being a shill for AI Tech Bro c***ts) here’s a thread I made when he did a terrible photo shoot for Politico, and I turned them into terrible Edinburgh Festival stand-up posters. (1/4)

Waiting for other countries to call for a trade deal

i cannot emphasize enough that if you thought trump would bring the war to a close or even make headway on a peace agreement then you are among the dumbest people alive www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Scientists now believe that there may be life on planet K2-18b. Here's why that's bad news for Democrats.

The very best of America’s shitposters are now outgunned by their Chinese peers. Balance of power has shifted.

Striking that both Trump’s enemies and diehards are all convinced this is a masterplan. Either that he’s deliberately shorted the market or it’s all a strategy to make other countries negotiate. This is his great ability: he convinces everyone he’s one step ahead. Most of the time he is simply not.

Can’t think why Russell’s work isn’t being picked up more by Tory media…

This.

I think this nails it.

From Fox’s Chief National Security reporter. Who can’t seem to get any airtime lately. For some reason.

Worlds all gone to shit, unfortunately. So here’s a picture I took this morning of my cat having a snooze, in the smallest box she could fit into 👍 you’re welcome.

A+++++ No notes.

me reading national security secrets bc i've been accidentally added to a group chat

Brexit. Trump. Truss. Boris Johnson. Netanyahu… It never ceases to amaze me just how much of our media & politicians waltz away unscathed after being so catastrophically & hideously wrong about all the major moments of our time.

Not now, mutant snake with three fangs might be most dangerous death adder ever found, we’ve got other shit going on to deal with

Multiple drone attacks across Ukraine last night, including on a hospital. This on a day that Putin claimed he’s committed to peace.

If for some reason you needed yet another reason to get the hell out of doge (X)

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

🥰🥰🥰

Surprised to see so many headlines from news outlets suggesting Putin has agreed to a ceasefire. He’s done no such thing. He’s basically said he would do in theory, providing his conditions are met, on his terms. Which is just a variation on what he’s always said.

Current scenes in Tottenham, North London. Just down the road from the local Tesla showroom.

Sometimes it’s important just to remind ourselves that this deranged lunatic wolfing down cheeseburgers while telling dangerous and absurd lies about a life saving vaccine is the man in charge of public health in America. These are harrowing times folks.

Can’t believe Twitter keeps crashing despite Elon hiring the best 19-year-old interns that racism has to offer

NEW: Multiple reports of Russian missiles pouring into Ukraine tonight, targeting civilians. The US has shut off the intelligence Ukraine needs to protect itself. This hotel in the southern city of Kryvyi Rih took a direct hit. Trump has the blood on his hands of every Ukrainian casualty tonight.

been thinking a lot about the media reaction to Biden's first debate performance compared to its response to fascism

"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..." Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked. 'Disrespect' does not reside in lack of a suit, Mr Vance. ~AA

Whether it’s Volodymyr Zelensky returning home to a war zone or JD Vance fleeing protestors at a ski resort, both men are following their hearts.

BREAKING: 'You have full backing across the United Kingdom' Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer tells Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 'We stand with you and Ukraine for as long as it may take' 👏

I can't stop laughing at this man I'm sorry. This is the kind of shit the biggest loser in the world would say to their girlfriend about buying her flowers on Valentine's Day once, and he's doing so in an argument that started because he called her a bitch

‘Free speech’ latest.

More of this from Dems, please!

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

to clarify: Trump is refusing to take sides over a war in which North Korea and Iran are backing one side and all of NATO has been backing the other

The only winner in any of this is Vladimir Putin and that is a devastating reality

Utterly shocked and nauseated after watching that! If there was ever a time for us and our European partners to draw a line in the sand, it is now. How we do it, well, that’s a question I’m glad is not in me to answer. What an horrific state of affairs..

Trump will have cordial phone chats and arrange friendly meetings with a murderous dictator but when he brings the president of an invaded and brutalised country into his office he bullies and mocks him. He’s not a president, he’s a gangster.

UK bumblebee numbers fell to lowest on record in 2024, shows data. Bumblebees declined by almost a quarter compared with the 2010-2023 average. Climate change is a major cause. Yet the rush for profits pays little attention to human survival and deregulation is the ideology.

❗❗❗ former leader of Reform UK in Wales has appeared in court accused of accepting bribes in exchange for making statements in the European Parliament that would benefit Russia, a court has heard www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Putin says Trump must go further before he’ll even agree to meet. Putin is entirely in the driving seat. The US has alienated its own allies, given Russia nearly all of what it wanted, bought Putin’s warped view of reality, and can’t even guarantee a meeting. The art of the deal, indeed.

Even by his god-awful standards, this is one of Trump’s most disgusting press conferences. He’s attacked Zelenskyy, using Kremlin talking points that he only has a 4% approval (LIE). Then, again, Trump blames him & Ukraine for starting the war. THEY. WERE. FUCKING. INVADED.
