Trump thought he would be meeting with his dictator buddy Bolsonaro in a few days. Trump said as much.

Bolsonaro was caught tampering with his ankle monitor & told authorities he was going to a foreign embassy.

Trump was going to whisk Bolsonaro out of Brazil.
After Trump's plot with Bolsonaro to bust him out of jail and get him to the US failed, Brazilian authorities accelerated the process for him to begin serving his 27-year sentence. Bolsonaro was ordered today to begin serving jail time tomorrow. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:

a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

You do not have to say “pro vaccine groups.” You can say the vast majority of doctors and scientists and the American Medical Association.

so true
Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.
