Indeed. And shame on those Labour politicians who used to say all the right things but now lack the courage to.

Iran’s official military spokesperson Ibrahim Al-Fiqar shared this AI-generated image of Donald Trump bowing before Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei with the caption “The end..”

Labour imposes ban on working with Greens, forces Labour councillors to partner with Tories.

What’s hilarious is that CBS thinks it did a great thing kissing Trump’s ass. But now they have no show, and Trump will move on to the next insane thing. You never win giving in to bullies. You just do something you know is counterproductive.

United States: the suicide of a superpower Empires rise and fall, but they have never been immolated like this before. That's what happens with Trump, who leads his country towards irrelevance because of a mixture of greed and ineptitude elpais.com/ideas/2026-0...

Thiago Ávila: “These monstrous soldiers, they raped our participants. It was not one, not two, not three, it’s many cases of sexual violence against our participants in the prison boat on the way to Ashdod, where they got once again beaten up. Many people with broken ribs...arms, the collar bone...”

SCOOP: Markwayne Mullin met with airline and travel executives at DHS last week and told them he's serious about plan to pressure sanctuary cities by cutting CBP screening at intl airports after World Cup. Execs have warned economic impact would be "devastating" www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

AOC: I think it’s pretty unbelievable that Gaza would not be mentioned once in the autopsy report. I think it was very clearly a major dynamic and a major thread that was happening in 2024. The fact that it’s not even addressed, I think, is a major oversight.

DNC autopsy report ignores the bulletin wounds, the bruising and broken bones, and concentrates on the victim’s choice in shoes and pedicure.

Donald Trump's dying words will be to tell Stephen Miller he poisoned his glass so that he may serve him forever in the afterlife as a slave

Russia hacked into real users’ Bluesky accounts to post fake content, the social media platform said.

Trump still saying "six genders" because no one has the guts to correct him. Sure, he's an idiot, and wouldn't know what cisgender means anyway. But there are enough Americans spineless enough to work for him and never correct him. So America looks like the land of fools. Which, sadly, it is.

Oh Alabama so deserves this man to be their governor. 🤣 "Tommy Tuberville wins Republican nomination for Alabama governor"

I'm not a plumber. But I'm pretty sure that's not how sinks work.

It's a game at this point: who can be the most hated American in the world? Will it be Musk? Bezos? Trump? As Musk is a South African, I think he's disqualified and simply should be deported. So Jeffy baby has a chance to take the prize.

I can't believe all the damage the Biden administration is doing to the economy. www.cnbc.com/2026/05/20/u...

Democrats vote for Trump’s court picks, they pardon his criminals, they vote for his wars… and the party leadership does nothing. Meanwhile if a Republican disobeys Trump they are purged. In the US there is only one political committed to its policies, the other just wants your money.

If you're a Democrat and you confirm someone who refuses to unequivocally say "Joe Biden won the 2020 election," you should lose your job.

Another day, another sunset

Dems' Senate Majority PAC on Trump's Paxton endorsement: "(He) endorsed a man who was impeached by his own party, indicted for felony fraud, reported to the FBI by his own staff, ordered to pay $6.6 mln to the whistleblowers he tried to destroy, and whose wife is divorcing him on biblical grounds."

Over on this side of the pond there is a new illness. American expats look at the news and the weak response to Trump from the Democrats and are getting physically sick — losing sleep, feeling ill, major bouts of depression.

I don’t eat lunch every day but when I do… Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.

Not much has changed, has it? Just substitute Trump’s name.

Israel detains two Portuguese in international waters, MNE summons Israeli ambassador www.publico.pt/2026/05/18/m...

US & Iran keep trading peace proposals that the other side will never agree to. But the difference is that Iran knows the US won’t agree while the US is naive enough to believe Iran might say “yes”. One side has highly educated men negotiating, the other has the son-in-law of a dementia addled man.

People who can’t get people to sleep with them want others to have babies. In the immortal words of JD Vance, go fuck a couch. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/17/w...

"Lisa Nandy criticised the former health secretary on Sunday, saying his comments over the weekend risked reopening a debate that was settled with the Brexit referendum 10 years ago." Yes, because correcting mistakes is a bad thing. 😏 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

No idea why Dems & their supporters think they will retake the House. Trump and SCOTUS have worked overtime to skew the election towards the GOP, and with the Dems losing so many seats even before the voting starts... well, then there is the polling, has it ever not underestimated the MAGAs?

I'm blocking those stupid Washington Post accounts that look like a bunch of amateur podcasters. People keep reposting their stuff because they can't believe the WaPo has gotten so bad. Well... the Post sucks, believe it. Just block and move on, they are just trolling Bluesky.

If Americans could organize a strike like this the Republicans and Trump would be toast and the Iran war over.

Currency traders are the stupidest people on Earth. Thank God I don't dabble in that market. As soon as they see the dollar strengthen they completely reverse their analysis. They spend time writing it, posting it, and by the time to appears the market has reversed and the dollar has fallen.
