Yesterday I sat in absolute shock watching Pam Bondi’s performance. The sheer lack of empathy, the contempt, the cruelty toward Epstein’s victims was stomach turning. It was a masterclass in how power looks after itself & shows absolute distain for the people they've failed.

Watching Minneapolis turn out in huge numbers against ICE & the Trump admin takes me back to the early nineties in South Africa. Back then, the ANC, COSATU, SACP & the Mass Democratic Movement launched Rolling Mass Action & kept the pressure on until apartheid cracked.

In 1984 Reagan & Thatcher sold us a lie: cut taxes for the rich & they’ll invest in business & research. They called it “trickle‑down capitalism.” Back then the top 1% held 6% of all wealth.

I honor the sacrifice of the 2 fallen soldiers & their interpreter, offering deepest respect & condolences to their families in this painful time.
As for the surprising attendance of Trump , his cruelty & disregard have caused too much damage,it’s far too late for him to feign humanity.

Are the Rassies still a thing?
If they are then Drumpf should be a dead cert for the "Worst Performance of the Year" for his performance as a human being!

Trump’s “America First” now means sending $20b to Argentina to prop up a far-right president with crackpot economic policies. That's Javier Milei, the guy that gave Elon Musk a gold chain saw, seems a normal guy right?
You might be thinking that it's Trump exercising soft power?

Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Does anyone else see the eerie overlap between Jacob Zumas state capture & Trump’s corruption? Given his “shithole countries” slur, maybe it’s time someone dug into the parallels properly?

As much as I'm worried about the rise of the right wing in the UK, I couldn't be happier & prouder of the people who projected videos of Trump, Prince Andrew & Epstein onto the side of Windsor Castle.
These people should not be untouchable as they're vile & disgusting.
They must be exposed.

1) At what point do we admit the obvious, that billionaires operate above the law & speak only for themselves, not ordinary people.
Elon Musk’s video address to the far-right Unite the Kingdom rally was pure incitement.

When your political leader convinces you that it's ok to cover up the largest Sex Trafficking Ring of Underage Girls in American History it's time to admit that you're in a Cult,
To quote Trump himself

So currently Maga is pro the Sex Trafficking of Underage Girls
