The worker who called Trump a “pedophile protector” has been suspended.
He says he has “definitely no regrets whatsoever,” adding: “I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity. And today I think I did that.” wapo.st/4sG38CD

Yeah. It's a sign of a huge collective failure of understanding and an inability to get to the heart of things that so few immediately got 'there is no level of convenience or ease of service that means you ignore the state's most fundamental duties'.
It speaks to how broken MPs' media diet is that all parties didn't collectively go "pedophilia bad" at the first possible opportunity here
The least surprising poll finding you'll ever see:

When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.
The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.

Many of you have become drama-addicted doomers, and you seem to think it's important for the rest of us to join you.
Yes, things are bad. But change is within our power. Grow up. Act like sober, responsible adults in a democracy instead of cynical, all-is-lost teenagers.
Now get off my lawn.

The reason I joined the Green Party - some years ago now - is because I'd spent my adult life watching mainstream politics taking all the obvious solutions off the table to suit the super-rich (and themselves).
Great to do this long form interview with @skynewsrss.bsky.social
We're engaging with Reform voters because they're fed up with the system - and right to be.
But instead of more division, we need to invest in communities and stop the super rich screwing us over.

Farage thrives because other parties have let him - Labour in particular, constantly following his framing on immigration and asylum. And the media don’t challenge him either.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social sets his own framing and isn’t scared of Reform. A one-on-one debate could be a game-changer.

Seeing exact same defences of X that we saw when there were calls to pull the plug on the dangerous poison that was Russia Today.
I'm not even going out on a limb when I say that X is far, far worse than RT ever was and that's a very low bar indeed.
The case for it to be shut down is a no brainer.

In Gorgan, the military administration building is reportedly on fire, new footage shows a significant blaze. With Iran under a total internet and mobile blackout, only scattered clips are making it out. At this point, we can only guess what’s really unfolding on the ground.

Since last year, Trump admin planned what to do if ICE agents were accused of crimes (even murder):
Protect them “no matter what."
Trump laid out ways to retaliate:
—Refuse to hand over an agent
—Charge local officials with “obstructing"
—Threaten to cut off more funding
