Trying to make some sense of this crazy world. Travel, music, politics, writing, comedy, business, economics and anything which makes me giggle is welcome. I am not a Thunderbird puppet, but kinda wish i was most days!
With the Trump/BBC row...correct me if I am wrong, but Trump did say both things, just not in that order? Yes, some creative editing, but context still the same in relation to Jan 6 ? Apology, yes, but lawsuit?

Thanks heaps to the 8 Senators and 6 Reps that are allowing this idiot to frame the whole shutdown as Dem's fault and act like he is a saviour of the USA. You total bunch of losers! It will take so much work to undo! Resign now and do us all a favour @schumer.senate.gov@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Take note America!! We are remembering a great Prime Minister today(Gough Whitlam). He championed healthcare, racial equality, women's rights, indigenous rights, education, positive engagement with the wider world, the arts and social welfare. The complete opposite of Trump and we are better for it!

Collins (R) feeling all smug and sanctimonious about passing her special bill that she "worked "day and night on". Well done to the eight traitors. You have just shown Trump that Dems are weak! Over to you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social to stop this stupidity. Also step down @schumer.senate.gov

Oh god Roger Marshall (R)....you are such a pathetic sycophantic idiot. Morons like this are actually in the senate making decisions for Americans. How on earth has this numskull been elected?

So... @schumer.senate.gov what are you doing right now to change at least on vote, after the train wreck and dumpster fire that you presided over yesterday?

I expect all Democrat senators and House Reps to be contacting the traitors personally today to explain which party they are in and the impact of their final votes. It is now up to the whole party to get their collective shit together and honour all the No Kings protests and votes from last Tuesday

The voting system in the senate is a complete joke. Thy set a time limit then ignore it. Seem to allow for holdouts to be persuaded on the floor or chamber while vote is ongoing. If they don't have the conviction to vote or can't turn up, they shouldn't be representing electorates in the first place

Bridget Phillipson says she doesn’t really know about the New York mayoral election a d doesn’t really follow US Politics. Seriously? She is either inept at her job as a politician and member of the Labour Party or a liar. I feel we all know which it is… both!!

Yes..of course SNAP benefits should be funded immediately, but I also don't hear many legislators talking about how to create a more fair and equatable country where this level of SNAP benefits is not needed in the first place!

Just watched 'Darkest Hour' again. Churchill had his flaws for sure, but the USA needs someone to step up and confront the fascists right now too.The MAGA party seems to be the party of Halifax appeasement. Which Dem is prepared to stand up in the US's hour of need?(btw Gary Oldman is magnificent!!)

I hope that UK Labour government pull the US Ambassador in and tell him, in no uncertain terms, to keep his and his boss's nose out of UK energy policy. I also hope Starmer lets Trump know personally that the UK is not the 51st state of America!

Rare to watch Smercornish on @cnn.com, but what a low key MAGA sycophant disguised as some centrist journo. Wow!! Watching him interview Joe Manchin about the filibuster was comical at best.

@schumer.senate.gov Stop being such a pathetic waste of political space. Either support Mamdani or don't, but say what you are going to do. You treat Democrats with such disdain with your arrogance and lack of backbone or integrity.. Resign now!
