Germany uses the excuse of the ’ceasefire’ which Israel routinely violates to sell weapons to Israel again. Israel is being rewarded for committing genocide by the country that pretends to have learned from the holocaust.

DOGE was Elon Musk’s grand experiment in running our government like one of his companies: big promises, reckless cuts, and real people left hurting.

Now it’s been quietly shut down eight months early because it never came close to delivering the savings he bragged about.
DOGE Disbanded: Elon Musk’s Cost-Cutting Project Quietly Ended
Musk said the initiative would save at least $1 trillion. But its website claims to have reached only $214 billion.

So Osborne's guy basically saying we can't possibly change the status quo as it'll upset the bond markets. The same markets heavily influenced by large corps, the super rich and hostile nations, whom the status quo benefits so bountifully.
Debate today with a Labour MP on the economy.

Also with a former advisor to George Osborne.

Very striking how much Labour & the Tories agree on our economic system.

Time for change. Let's make hope normal again. Enjoy! 🙌🏼👇🏼

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

This constant relitigating of whether Farage/Trump/etc are racists is exhausting given the overwhelming weight of evidence.
It reaffirms the Toni Morrison quote on the function of racism - to tire out everyone on having to prove & re-prove the 'if' at the expense of consequences. He is. So now what?

Listen, Trump. Your continued threats will not intimidate me or keep me from doing my job, which includes oversight of the executive branch.

Stop the threats of execution, hanging, and sending a mob before someone gets hurt.

America deserves better.
New threats from Trump:

The president just endorsed a post reading, "Go get all those traitorous sons of bitches for sedition at the very least. Those pompous traitorous communists should be impeached and prosecuted."
