You know that photo Trump waved in front of Ramaphosa and the world press asserting it showed genocide of white farmers in South Africa. #Fake
In fact it was a depiction of femicide in the DRC with Red Cross workers carrying the body bags of women who’d been raped and burned alive there

Trump spent much of his meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa rambling about disproven claims and conspiracy theories.
Ramaphosa was not interested in indulging Trump’s delusions about his country.

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

I want more onshore wind farms all over the UK, I’ve campaigned for them my whole life. I would even like a wind turbine in our garden but planning wouldn’t allow it! Peat is a natural carbon store making it a really silly place to put turbines.

Petition: Ban wind farms on protected peat land in England

Sending a Russian dissent back to Russia to be tortured and/or killed perfectly encapsulates this loathsome administration’s lack of American values.
Kseniia Petrova, a Russian scientist at Harvard Medical School, was detained at Logan Airport after returning from France and sent to an ICE detention in Louisiana, The Insider reports.
A big critic of Putin and the war in Ukraine, she may now be deported to Russia.

It winds me up seeing Rooney talk such sense about the game at a high level, yet there's no use of that knowledge at Utd. We hand the reigns to ex players that wouldn't get a sniff at a top club. Doesn't make sense to me.

The government tried to keep the membership of - and the advice being offered by - its scientific advisory group secret. They essentially told the public they were “following the science” while ensuring the public couldn’t check up on this claim. 4/8

In early 2020, a pandemic was spreading. The UK’s PM went on a 10 day half-term holiday during which he was uncontactable and the government went into panic mode, focusing, as Hancock related to the COVID enquiry, on buying enough body bags. 1/8
