If we’re going to have Chinese style autocracy in the US, I’d also like the renewable energy infrastructure, high speed rail, electric vehicles, investment in science, and good food.

Fantastic to hear some Americans recognise the damage Trump is doing.
As a Canadian, it makes me so happy to hear Americans cheer the Canadian team & boo the Americans in a 🇨🇦 vs. 🇺🇸 match 😁

It pisses me off that gay people are hated mostly because of some poorly translated ancient outdated book full of other bullshit idiots base their entire lives on. Religion is a curse, man.

Murdoch is trying to undermine the rule of law in the UK and to legitimise the incitement of violence.
Murdoch is an enemy of democracy who has done more damage to the UK than any foreign enemy.

The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying £7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a ‘moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

Politicians hide themselves away.
They only started the war.
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor.
Time will tell on their power minds.
Making war just for fun,
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
Wait 'till their judgment day comes...

A reminder from 4 months ago at the Munich Security Conference where China’s top diplomat, Wang Yi, warns about the dangers of a “Might is Right” law of the jungle base for international order.
China’s top diplomat, Wang Yi, gave an important speech at the Munich Security Conference.
In this short excerpt he summarises rather succinctly the root cause of the current international instability. “Might is Right” is the international relations equivalent of the law of the jungle.

Record heat followed by record cold…welcome to climate change.
The heat totally abandoned the West and it's sweeping the East...
Look at Nevada highlands tonight, with some frosts including a spectacular monthly cold tied record at Austin.

We still have no idea who the ICE agents are. They could be insurrectionists, extremist militiamen or criminals themselves, chasing law-abiding citizens down the street for recording their kidnappings. The odds they aren't are low. Congress must raise hell about this. A masked gang runs our country.

It's pretty funny that Peter Dutton's entire election strategy was divide and conquer, setting one group against another and damn the consequences for national unity. Didn't work for the country but seems to be working a treat for the Coalition.
