Spent the day talking to Europeans, and nobody can think of any precedent for what Musk just did to the US Congress. There is no businessman with that much power, the power to stop a routine spending bill, anywhere else in the democratic world.

It’s bad enough former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been allowed to spout his absolute boll**** about “Brexit saving lives” unchallenged on UK news shows - now he’s traveling the world repeating it!

Let’s stop him rewriting history - share these actual FACTS

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

This actually relates to the previous government, and it also says Ofwat were culpable.

You can hear the boundless respect & affection Mishal Husain inspires in colleagues in every farewell this morning. A very rare broadcaster. Appalling that she felt compelled to leave the Beeb. Heads should roll!

I heard RFK Jr. is floating the banning of the polio vaccine so seems like a good time to remind folks that RFK Jr. was vaccinated with this same vaccine & therefore is at no risk of harm himself

Kinda like when he publicly was against the covid vaccine yet privately required his guests to have it🙃

In images I never thought I would see in my lifetime, the revolutionary Syrian flag is being raised at the Syrian embassy in MOSCOW.

Few things explain the scale of Russia’s military and strategic defeat in Syria more than this.

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath
