Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.

I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.

Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

Racial and religious hate crime on UK public transport is growing, data shows.

Nurtured by Reform, Tories and Starmer's "Island of Strangers" speech. Scapegoating minorities for economic/political failures.

Without immigration, UK economy can't function.

Trump warned Hamas will “have hell to pay” if it refuses to disarm during the upcoming second stage of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement.
Trump made no reference to the hundreds of times Israel has violated the ceasefire since it took effect on October 10.

Market concentration → Less competition → Higher prices for consumers → Corporate profits at 70-year high → Record stock buybacks → Higher shareholder value → More power for corporations and the rich.

The Israeli-backed militia led by Rami Helles has forced the displacement of more than 240 Palestinian residents in eastern Gaza City on Thursday, as part of Israel’s ongoing expansion of its “yellow line” buffer zone, according to the Saudi-owned, London-based newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat...

Trump’s fortune jumped $3B in nine months.

Yes! $3 billion dollars!

Joe Biden's grew $3M in four years. Most came from equity on his properties and investments.

The disparity is shocking.

And Trump's crypto business is corrupt and shocking.

Listen to Adam Mockler explain it all to you.

Also screw the BBC for its naked agenda. It refused to carry a hugely expensive first ever YouGov survey we commissioned showing how awful trans lives in the UK have become because it was "not strong enough" but there's no piece of anti-trans hatred too petty for it to platform.
Total gaslighting. Anti-trans activist; chooses to speak in person, provoking students who want to protect trans rights; they exercise their freedom of speech to tell her she isn't wanted; she gets to speak anyway; the BBC dutifully platforms her again; and now she threatens to sue everyone.

And do not forget who was there before - they also want you to forget this 😏
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

The behemoth Israeli propaganda machine, fueled by wealthy powerful U.S. political and media lobbies, has been an effective tool in falsely painting the revolutionary struggle of the Palestinian people as terrorism and resistance groups, such as Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, as terrorists.
