Here's a 🎶 twist on Coldplay's thumping #VivaLaVida we're calling "Puppets on a Kremlin String?"
It reflects on the grotesque media spectacle hosted by #Trump & #Vance yesterday at the White House. In solidarity with Zelensky & Ukraine.

“If Roosevelt had told Churchill to sue for peace on any terms with Adolf Hitler and to fork over Britain’s coal reserves to the United States in exchange for no American security guarantees, it might have approximated what Trump did to Zelensky.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/o...
Opinion | A Day of American Infamy
A dreadful moment for Ukraine, for the free world, for the legacy of an America that once stood for the principles of the Atlantic Charter.

A US takeover of Gaza? The expulsion of all its Palestinian inhabitants? It's not going to happen, and everyone knows it's not going to happen, so what's the point even talking about it? The delusional rantings of a dangerous madman.

Interesting that the two clearest voices against Trump so far are women: The Wonderfully Rev Marrian Edgar Budde, vicar, and Pamela Hemphill, ex J6 defendant and prisoner. Who knew eh?

We are watching unfold yet another deliberate fabrication by Republican operatives. cf Swift Boat; Birthers; Pizzagate. Now "Rape Gangs"
Elon Musk is starting to risk getting Jess Phillips killed. She's been safeguarding minister for six months. She oversaw nothing relating to the rape gangs. As an opposition MP she was one of the most prominent campaigners for the victims.
What he's doing is a travesty.
