The idea that journalists, politicians, groups or - you know, women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ people - should "stay on the pitch" doesn't really hold up.

Foreign Minister's account has 60k followers - 40 likes, 13k views?

Blue ticks straight to the top of the queue with misogyny, bile.
This is the 'engagement' that the Irish government has been using to justify remaining on X. These are the top replies to a randomly chosen recent post.

As we say in Wales “Clean off”.
Trump told NYT that his power as commander in chief is constrained only by his "own morality" — brushing aside international law and other legitimate checks on his abilities.

"My own morality. My own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me."

"I don't need international law."

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

AOC excoriated Vance here.

Let’s see how the American public responds to Vance's “we believe young mothers should be shot in the street” political slogan.

After this week, that line will forever and always be JD's rallying cry.

Vance's stance is, almost literally, "Well, she shouldn't have mouthed off like that. She asked for it."
When Vance insists, contra the videos, that Good threatened the ICE agent and "had it coming", what he means is that he, like Ross, feels threatened by any woman who has the audacity to use her voice in the public sphere.

This deeply misogynist worldview is core to MAGA.

The transformation of ICE into a type of national police force, backed, in some cases, by soldiers from the National Guard, has been covered as immigration story—but these forces are reshaping democracy for all of us.

Big Oil spent nearly $100M to get Trump elected in 2024.

Now Trump is returning the favor, giving them advance notice of his Venezuela attack and inviting them to the White House to discuss how they will divvy up control of the country's oil.

Oligarchy in action.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

Great to do this long form interview with @skynewsrss.bsky.social

We're engaging with Reform voters because they're fed up with the system - and right to be.

But instead of more division, we need to invest in communities and stop the super rich screwing us over.

"That is a fundamental difference between Vice President Vance and I," says Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in response to JD Vance's defense of the ICE agent who shot and killed Renée Good in Minneapolis.

"I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street."

Trump has made it clear he regards himself as president only of the people who voted for him. But that’s not how the Constitution works. Nor is it how American democracy works.

Mainstream media and politicians are as much to blame for the rapid rise of American fascism, very potentially heading for an effective dictatorship, as Trump and his criminal regime.

This couldn't be happening without their complicity.

This minister seems to believe that the State has no responsibility with regards to preventing a company, based here in Ireland, from providing the tools by which child sexual abuse material has been generated by its own paid subscribers. A truly bizarre thing to say.
