Netanyahu has confirmed the IDF, a genocidal army, will remain in most of Gaza. Israel has a history of severe oppression of the Palestinian people.

When Hamas rejects the continued oppression, they will get blamed.

It’s a 3 card trick. Absolute con job

Talking to an American couple at the Steelers game yesterday. I asked them what they thought of @gavinnewsom.bsky.social . She said he’s a grifter!

But she saw nothing wrong with Trump selling perfume, runners, meme coins, baseball hats & t shirts!

It’s a cult!

In the GP’s waiting room and Pat Kenny is on the radio. He’s such a pain in the arse.

The Giants v Cowboys game is absolute nuts. 2 touchdowns and a 64 yard field goal in the last minute!!

Israel don’t want Palestine to exist, the same as Hamas with Israel. One side is more successful than the other. And the world stands by and lets them do it

@profgalloway.com as you praised the IDF on your show on Monday, what’s your thoughts on the constant murder of starving people as they queue to get food in Gaza. The latest spree has killed 59 people. The IDF are shooting fish in a barrel. Nothing is being done about this slaughter

Worlde was a complete guess today. Went through all the combinations and didn’t recognise a word. Ended up just hitting enter on anything that looked like a possible word 🤷‍♂️

The IDF will tell you these people are being used as human shields by Hamas.

The rest of the world know that they are victims of indiscriminate bombings by Israel. They don’t have any hospital to go to and Israel have ensured they are starving @profgalloway.com @karaswisher.bsky.social

@profgalloway.com @karaswisher.bsky.social another mention of the 50 Israeli hostages (who’d be free by now if Israel didn’t break the peace deal) but no mention, again, of the war crime of starving a nation to death. Why no mention of the ongoing genocide in Gaza?

The more I read about the Trump tariffs, the more I am convinced he’s as dumb as a rock.

Lesotho, one of Africa’s poorest countries has a 50% tariff. Why? Because they make textiles & export to the US. They also mine diamonds. They are too poor to buy American, hence the deficit.

I have 85 unread books on my Kindle. I keep a list of books I want to read on Amazon and when they are cheap, I buy them…hence the 85 unread books. Anyone else do this?

Ederson is shockingly bad at coming out to close down a player. His first instinct seems to be to clobber the player #MCIRMA.

I really don’t know how Ange is still in a job. Absolutely destroyed tonight by Liverpool. They only won the first leg because Liverpool were abject.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Physiotherapists must have the best reputation of any profession. I constantly hear people recommending their physio to others & have never heard anyone give out about a physio.

BTW, my son’s physio is brilliant, if you’re looking for one 😉

Watching The Resident on Netflix. Enjoyable but I’d never go to Chastain. If you ever go there, you’ll either
- need major surgery
- need a transplant

A student should be able to communicate well through Irish by 15. The reality is very different

“The reasons for this are not well understood”

It was a struggle when I was in school and I can’t speak a word of Irish. My kids aren’t as bad as me, but both find

Jeysus, have the Dems learnt nothing? American doesn’t want a left leaning liberal ticket. Get someone towards the centre and have a chance of winning!

He sucks the oxygen out of the room with this nonsense. He’s not going to do any of this.

And he’s not going to do what he promised either like bring down prices.

Expect more of this drivel to distract from all his failings.

He should be in a home
Elizabeth Warren says she thinks Trump's talk of taking over Greenland and the Panama Canal is a distraction from his terrible nominees like Hegseth and Gabbard and RFK Jr

Good article by @davidmcwecon.bsky.social on the US’s misguided confidence that they don’t need the rest of the world. They do! To fund their ever increasing budget deficits
