Putin is prosecuting in absentia a German carnival float builder, Jacques Tilly, for making parade floats making fun of him. Anyone in MAGA want to speak up for this float builder's free speech rights being violated by Russia? Anyone?

“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."

The legacy media keeps getting this wrong. Trump didn't say "nationalize the election." He said We should take over the VOTING in at least many—15 places.' The Republicans ought to nationalize the VOTING." There is a big difference.

Stop posting. Twitter screenshots of profiteers all day. Elon paid for Trump. You came to Bluesky, fuck X and the trolls still there

In Munich, I was embarrassed by America’s lack of support for Ukraine. Secretary Rubio did not even mention Putin’s invasion in his speech. I’m a patriotic American, I want to feel proud of my country again. We should stand with democracy against tyranny michaelmcfaul.substack.com/p/an-embarra...

Je suis allé voir les mails de ce jour là sur jmail.world (n'y allez pas si vous n'avez pas le cœur bien accroché) et j'ai trouvé un autre truc étonnant

There’s only 1 person in Congress who doesn’t trade stocks, doesn’t take corporate PAC money, and has a public schedule. That’s me. And it should be the standard.

The smart lady explains the mindset of people who aren't billionaires and still vote for the Right. As I usually say, if people knew what the Right and Left are (the most basic thing in politics, LOL), every election result anywhere would be 99% Left and 1% Right

I am not crying, *you*'re crying! 😢

Meanwhile, in Germany, the public weighs in on what they think of the Epstein Administration. #BrutalButAccurate

Seen on that other site...😆 What's really in the Epstein files!

If you feel that same responsibility, I ask you to stand with me. Make your voice heard. Add your name to a petition demanding that Congress abolish ICE. Let us show, unmistakably, that cruelty will never be the measure of this country.

people should wake up and realise an INFORMANT is usually someone on the inside of crimes, otherwise they would be called a WITNESS so johnson maybe was telling the truth, and trump was not only a paedophile but then he sold out epstein and maxwell, as we know full well how traitorous he is

Rep. Thomas Massie & I are campaigning for accountability of the Epstein class and the Epstein Administration. Begin with Lutnick!

Whenever I hear him talking about ‘making a deal’ it always makes me think of that other noted professional, with an equal level of acumen and insight; Fred Flintstone

Theres a quiet myth that #climate adaptation is less contentious than mitigation. It isn’t Who's protected? Who pays? Who decides? If we can’t transform society to decarbonize justly, why think adaptation will be easier? Both hinge on fairness, equality &democracy Reminded of key Qs by @volts.wtf

For us anti-theists, our core texts are also the bible, quran and torah! such a coincidence

It's Day 1455 of Russia's illegal, immoral and insane war on its peaceful neighbour. Ahead of the so called peace talks in Geneva, Trump keeps heaping pressure on Ukraine, at exactly the same time as missiles hit Ukraine, killing civilians and hitting more power structures. Here's Tuesday's daily🧵

Labour's latest u-turn is over elections in May. It results from its reorg of councils in England, Here's a reminder of how this is removing democracy at a local level.

The people themselves might be slow on the uptake in the USA, but the judges know what's going on.

Latest stats out today show unemployment rate in Scotland is significantly below the UK’s. With limited powers, we’re building a stronger economy and creating more jobs. Imagine how much more we could do with the full powers of independence.

Russians continue to flood France's information space with fake front pages of popular media outlets. 🚫 Russian Lies: "La Tribune accuses Macron of not stopping the war in Ukraine." This is being reported by pro-Russian Telegram channels.

Russia's Ilsky oil Refinery in Krasnodar continues to burn through the afternoon, after Ukraine's overnight strikes.

Giving Braverman the education brief is quite a choice for Reform. I was on an education commission with her once before she went completely mad and she knew absolutely nothing at all.

At this very moment both the BBC News and Sky News channels are yet again showing a live speech by Nigel Farage. When will they start showing every speech by @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @eddavey.libdems.org.uk live as well?

"and now I am the slob who farts and sleeps at a desk and hires a private army to be the hunter for me. Thanks for letting me do that, suckers"

Ex-CIA officer John Sipher says the new Epstein document dump adds data to an already plausible narrative about how Moscow could exploit kompromat-rich figures like Epstein (and Trump) as the kind of “useful idiots” it historically leverages.
