NEW 🧵

The number of people travelling from Europe to the US in recent weeks has plummeted by as much as 35%, as travellers have cancelled plans in response to Trump’s policies and rhetoric, and horror stories from the border.

CorvJenn, my Friend! How’d you like to get that Pulitzer Prize?!

My anxiety had been building ahead of the implementation of my transit agency’s first battery electric buses. We’re late to the party relative to our peers, but you’re not even going to believe how fast we’re jumping ahead.

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

It's the little things. Microdose hope.

This is so stupid that the only logical conclusion is it’s a WWE-Style Heel Narrative. You’ve got to keep playing along though. I hope it’s over ASAP and we can turn back towards themes of heroes, courage, redemption arcs, virtuosos comebacks, Rocky stuff.

Okay, @kiley481.bsky.social , I’m just going to take their terrible shitty ideas that will lead us all down a dark and existentially dangerous path, and flip the table over like Jesus with the money changers. Here’s my prescription for Gaza:

Why is Trump speed running towards undermining the mono-polar international rules based order ASAP (that’s barely plausible to anyone)?

1) Donald Trump claimed $50 million was going to Hamas for condoms last week.

2) Today he's claiming it's $100 million.

3) Someone at the WH couldn't read a spreadsheet which said "InGaza" for an AIDS foundation in the Gaza province, get this, in Mozambique.

4) No mention of condoms in the grant

Let’s be clear: what we’re seeing at USAID and across government is an illegal power grab by the unelected billionaire who funded Trump’s campaign.

We won’t sit quietly as Trump hands the keys of government to Musk and his billionaire oligarchs.
