Starmer and Streeting have to go and the first thing their replacements need to do is cancel all contracts with #Palantir.

The last thing we need is our security and healthcare data in the hands of these fascist lunatics.

After a certain point the sanity of Palantir's leadership does matter to the national security of the UK and other European states buying its software

Three remarkable young women at post-game press conference as No.4 Texas absolutely demolished No.5 LSU. Not sure there will ever be as special a trio again, though two of three are back next season.

Bring. It. On.

All you need to do is watch Hillary as First Lady handing the Republicans their asses when she testified in support of Healthcare for all (highlights below) or as former Secretary of State testifying to Benghazi panel.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Well that's one way to avoid the ongoing embarrassment of artist cancellations and terrible ticket sales...

But my word the amount of faux-gold & faux-marble fixtures that will have to be stripped out after he's gone boggles the mind. It'll be out & out vandalism of another venerable institution.
The closure would help transform Washington’s top performing arts facility into a venue with the ‘highest level of success, beauty and grandeur’, the US president said, in his latest move to remake the US capital in his image. ft.trib.al/XsXw4LA

Easy enough to spin off a sub-unit in a specific geography. But is it too late to recover from the brand damage? And will the US government penalise Cap in the US for going 'woke'?

I wonder if this is a blip or if more multinational companies based outside the US will follow suit?

Former Texas Lege reporter here. A Dem hasn't held this seat since 1990. Tarrant is the safest of red suburban counties. There is no way the TX and national GOP aren't in panic mode right now.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Won't it feel good when it's all over? Won't it feel good to say 'we beat the fascists'? Don't you want to be on the right side of history this time?

Don't give up. Don't resign yourself to being powerless. You don't have to go to a protest or monitor ICE. Write a check. Call your Rep or 1/2
All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

These people spent the entire Covid pandemic with semi-automatic weapons at protests.

Now they’re so horrified a man had a gun at protest, that they think he must be shot dead.
