The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Yes, & I think it's not just that they're ex-Conservatives, there's something quite specific about the Johnson tenure here about most of them.

Just noticed that these defectors rose to prominence (& most to senior ministerial positions) under Boris Johnson, & they perhaps feel since they haven’t had their talents fully recognized since.

Minnesota should be proud.🙏

Did you see this tribute to MN from Bernice King?

If not, it's worth the view. I could only find a copy on Facebook... but it's heartwarming and worth your listen.

He pretends to be outraged when war memorials are disrespected during marches that pass by them but the actual denigration of British war dead?
“Not quite fair.”

Trump pulled the US out of the World Health Organisation yesterday.

In response California has become the first state to join the WHO’s Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network.

If this is the start of a pattern Americans will only be safe in Blue states.

He witnessed first hand the political gymnastics required to get the act of economic self-harm over the line. Saw the r/w media provide cover for the traitors, whose self-interest dominated their every move. I seem to recall flag-shagging coming to the fore during this period. Patriots, my arse!

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.”

So, same as Canadians.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin.

This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis.

I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets.

But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.

Don’t give him what he wants.
