Illegal, unconstitutional, and an elevation of ICE’s encroachment. This needs to have national attention. 1/2

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

Trump just might get a peace prize that would secure his place in history.
“It is the “Neville Chamberlain Peace Prize” — awarded by history to the leader of the country that most flagrantly sells out its allies and its values to an aggressive dictator “

Shout out to all the other political prisoners who openly called for the burning of human beings, entered a guilty plea, got released after doing 40% of their sentence, and were immediately free to go on supportive media channels to criticise the government that locked them up.

Haven't read the indictment, but is Donald Trump's Justice Department by any chance taking the position here that the criminal justice system should punish people for creating false financial or other documentation to cover up a sexual relationship?

Think of data as a lighthouse: once it’s there, everyone can use it, and your use doesn’t diminish mine. That’s why we don’t leave lighthouse-building to the market — and why government collects & shares economic data.

So the UK government is wasting billions on building aircraft carriers that can't be sent to any location that drones can reach (that's everywhere). Money for guns but none for public services.
❗️There have been official confirmations of reports that 🇷🇺Russia has decided to write off its only aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov.
For example, VTB Chairman Andrey Kostin said that the bank, which in 2023 received 100%

People calling for peace, who wish no harm on anyone, risk arrest under the Terrorism Act, while the state terrorists perpetrating genocide are being protected from our free speech.
If the police arrest me for this, it's a direct attack on the expression of opinion: ie on free speech. But the Terrorism Act is so madly oppressive and loosely framed that I have no idea which side of it I'm on. And I suspect it's the same for them.
