Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat.

Can't believe I'm reading this.

Covid report (according to BBC) criticises Nicola Sturgeon for leading public briefings.

"sharing the burden of communications would reduce the risk of polarisation among members of the public"

This is insane - literally blaming FM for other people's rancid biases

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

Crow: "It just tells us everything that we need to know that reminding people to obey the law, reminding people to obey the Constitution, is somehow criminal in Trumpworld and should be responded to with death threats. It's very, very telling."

Scotland did well to qualify for #WorldCup but they should stop there.

It would be completely inappropriate to take part in an international sporting event while Trump's ICE thugs are arresting people with maximum brutality based on the colour of their skin.

At the moment, the official voice of the US government is a rancid mixture of trolling, cruelty, propaganda, and crass jokes about the human suffering they’re creating.
The official voice of the US government is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?
Joking memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

I've had a life-changing experience: bicycle rollers!

Now I can stay fit through a Scottish winter :) It's so good to be able to exercise no matter the weather.

Finding it quite difficult not to fall off but if you like cycling and are keen to develop good pedaling form that adds to the fun.

It’s not bad enough that ICE is assaulting immigrants on the streets of America, kidnapping them and disappearing them. ICE is also sexually abusing straight and LGBTQ women.

Speak out and spread videos like this one to bring awareness to these human rights violations.

It’s up to us.

ICE ABDUCTED THIS PRESCHOOL TEACHER! They stormed into the preschool endangering children.

This woman has a permit to work here, but Trump's brutal forces slammed her, face first through the door & detained her anyway.

This could happen at your children's school.

Another example of vibe shift between Trump’s first presidency and now: In 2017, Teen Vogue stood out for outspoken, social-justice politics. In 2025, it laid off its entire politics team, including the last two Black women journalists on staff.

NBC and CBS have made similar moves.
