We are off the cliff, folks 🇺🇸

This is my fandom account but i have to express pride for my state. We showed up today in -20 degree windchills. MN nice — unless you’re ICE. BYE. #IceOut #MNStrong

Rep. Raskin: "[Congressional Republicans] have been saying that there's some kind of First Amendment defense that Donald Trump would have had to the crimes you indicted him for." Jack Smith: "The First Amendment does not protect speech that facilitates a crime."

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

If this happens, it will make literally everything better. All of it. Everything in the world. @nigella.bsky.social in our living rooms every Tuesday throughout Autumn - genuinely life-changing stuff.

Breaking: Scotland has been gifted the World Cup from the previous winners, Argentina. Back to you in the studio…

When I stop laughing I'll provide some insightful analysis.

X is not a test case — it is a defining battleground in the stand-off between states and powerful, sinister, unaccountable companies. We cannot afford to lose @theleaduk.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/theleadu...

The White House says the Smithsonian Institution must submit materials about current and upcoming exhibitions and events for a review that will determine whether they express "improper ideology." n.pr/4583d8f

I’d’ve thought that creating a tool (Grok) that strips children, women and men and desecrates victims of the holocaust or shootings …and then refusing to stop it would not bode well for his application in child custody applications

The DOJ is more than three weeks late in delivering the Epstein Files. In those three weeks: - Trump declared himself acting President of Venezuela - ICE murdered a woman in Minnesota - Trump is preparing an invasion of a NATO ally - Trump initiated a criminal investigation of Fed Chair Powell

The EU and UK should shut down X just as they shut down RT - and in fact I think it is likely that they will eventually. The question is, how much damage will be done by then?

US chicken is chlorinated because America has no animal welfare laws where poultry is concerned. It has to be chlorinated because Salmonella and e. coli run rife The EU banned that practice in 1997 and as such the UK has among the highest welfare and standards in the world. 1/2

This is my favorite sentence in a long while. From Doug Varone, whose dance company lost $40,000 by canceling two Kennedy Center gigs planned for next April: “It is financially devastating but morally exhilarating.” #courage

This was really fascinating. The Mobs relationship with the government over decades, vis versa & now our legal system of writing a check for influence podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

i post this story every christmas, and will keep doing so until it stops making me cry merry christmas xx

Was at a Christmas party with a load of clergy last night and as some people were leaving they found a person collapsed on the street outside so the Verger took over and called an ambulance and sent all the clergy away because "if they wake up surrounded by priests that'll just make things worse"

As someone who doesn’t find this time of year easy, I thought this good & helpful podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

wtf is a FIFA peace prize? that's like being an NFL laureate in physics

This is fascinating in the sense that the social media companies have managed to create a norm in which we think they can’t and shouldn’t be regulated. I wonder if people thought about cigarettes and alcohol this way once upon a time.

🚨The Petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy has now rocketed past 65,000 signatures! Let’s get it to 70,000 tonight. If a petition is what it’s going to take let’s get this done! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Might be time to revisit this www.opendemocracy.net/en/opendemoc...

We’ve taken so much groundwater from the Earth that it’s tilted the entire fucking planet (‼️‼️)

podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/b... I can’t fathom why @emilythornberry.bsky.social isn’t in the cabinet, she’s magnificent

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

It's a testament to how much the Republican Party has changed that Dick Cheney's final vote was for the Democrats.

These poor kids didn’t stand a bloody chance… 345 vulnerable kids, seeking asylum and then lost by our authorities 50 still missing Likely to traffickers How could this have happened? Unforgivable from now-Reform controlled Kent County Council. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Any hamburgers on tomorrow’s show @mrjamesob.bsky.social ?

It's great for our species that the man who saved the world by being instinctively independently-minded and non-violent was also very hot.

Dawn Butler was ordered to leave the commons when she called a lying Prime Minister a liar - now the deputy speaker tells her that you can’t call a racist a racist - grotesque protection of the worst people while the decent are hung up to dry

This is a strong effort

Really clear from the judge: "This Court rules that the Plaintiffs have shown...that Secretaries Noem and Rubio have intentionally and in concert implemented Executive Orders in 14161 and 14188 a viewpoint-discriminatory way to chill protected speech. This conduct violated the First Amendment."

"Brexit lies on the side of that bus," Starmer says, mocking populist rhetoric, "click here for your new country". Very rare moment of criticism of Brexit from him.

Sadiq Kahn is a Dude.

Millions spent on Trump visit. Red carpets, Royals in coronets and golden dining services too. And all he offers in return are petulant racist insults about our capital city and our mayor. What a singular lack of decorum, grace, and courtesy. Fuck him and his damp hands and his nicotine yellow wig

For him it's all about ideological purity. It's better to stand by an idealistic scenario and get crushed than to be pragmatic, get elected and do some good. Politics is a bus, not a taxi - you get the one that gets you closest to where you want to go.

Is it really *that hard* to say that it is totally morally wrong to say to people who have come here legally, worked, paid taxes, built their lives here, contributed to Britain, that they have to fuck off now, rather than "unfunded".

This by @jamesomalley.co.uk is good.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

Obama: We have to recognize that on both sides there are people who are extremists  But I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the government behind extremist views.

“Oh, don’t worry about that... it’s not the Black Death – our neighbour is just a patriot” From the new Private Eye, in shops now.

Glorious bit of shitposting by Khan here. Top man.

Yes, yes you are. Stop cosplaying "legitimate concerns". When you join a far right rally, organised by well known far right leader Tommy Robinson, with a host of speakers who outright say they are far right, you are a racist. No ifs, buts or maybes. There are no excuses for being there.

It didn't work out for me in the race to be deputy leader, but given events today, am sharing this again. We in Labour are uniquely placed to bring our diverse country together against the forces of hate. When we stand up for each other, we all win. labourlist.org/2025/09/alis...

Just looked again on X. While Keir is posting about business, Shabana as home secretary called out violence against police yesterday but nothing about the racism or Musk. Silence from other bigwigs like Lammy, Cooper, Reeves..
