This article is really informative and despite Scottish perspectives does suggest the BBC may not be fully aligned with the malign forces we might assume in Scotland.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

🇺🇸🥔 The US Department of Treasury has lifted sanctions on the Belarusian airline Belavia, which had been in effect since 2021.

A private plane used by Lukashenko’s family was removed from the list of restrictions, and operations with 3 aircraft associated with it were also allowed.

This is shocking... @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Evidence clearly linking the assault found at the location, with the car present at the assault and the ever vigilant Police under a Labour PM with Legal background are unable to press charges.

However did we do it in the 80s??
C’mon @norfolkpolice.bsky.social

The attack resulting in significant injuries only occurred a week ago ”because there’s no CCTV at the scene”

However did we manage when there was NO CCTV?

By old fashioned police work.

It rather looks as if you don’t even want to try.
Street flags meant as “patriotism” are causing attacks. A man was beaten after trying to take one down, and police dropped the investigation despite evidence.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

A really interesting summary of the differences between F16, Gripen and Ex-Soviet fighter aircraft used in Ukraine. Quite illuminating.

The Swedish jets Ukraine could get were built to survive Russia—and that's the point
To survive Russian strikes, Ukraine's warplanes spread out. That's why the Swedish Gripen fighter—built to evade Soviet bombardment—would be good for Ukraine.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
