More of the urbane diplomacy and enlightened discourse that have become legendary at the #Trump White House.

If this new legal principle applies to the Criminal Code of Canada, the prison population is going to start thinning out very quickly. #AnitaAnand

The headline writer guards the establishment's approved discourse. However slanted and misleading the article may be, it might contain some disturbing and thought provoking content. To reduce the risks this poses, the headline sedates you before you read any further.

For the capitalists, the wealth that is accumulated can never be enough, even if it couldn't be consumed in a thousand lifetimes. #Trillionaire

#Indigenousresistance interrupts the pontification of world leaders and fossil fuel enablers at the #COP30 climate summit in Brazil. We need to take our lead from these people as they take to the streets and fight for survival.

#Resolution3379 was repealed in 1991, under enormous pressure from the Western powers. Surely it's time for the UN to restore this position, which is so clearly in line with the thinking of hundreds of millions of people across the world. #Zionism

These #Indigenous people are showing us how to respond to climate summits that jet in fossil fuel lobbyists and the political agents of the oil and gas companies to make empty speeches and issue duplicitous communiques while a #climate disaster unfolds. #COP30

No one can accuse the UK embassy staff in Tel Aviv of taking their work home with them.

The suggestion that a murderous '#ceasefire,' implemented while #Israel repositions itself to continue with the dispossession of the #Palestinian people, should mean the rehabilitation of the Israeli pariah state, is as absurd as it is offensive.

#Trump and #Netanyahu's blood soaked #ceasefire.

This kind of union/community action is a model we must build upon and take to decisive levels.

A vital slogan in the face of the rising right-wing racist tide.

If you follow the money and examine the political alliances that are at work, the truth of this statement is inescapable. #Israel #Colonialism

John Bellamy Foster's 'Capitalism in the Anthropocene' goes into a bit more detail but this captures the basic point.

Sorry but the pretence of responsible #capitalism has gone completely out of fashion.

He is still being held, without charges and under appalling conditions, in an Israeli prison. #HussamAbuSafiya

Another climate summit farce plays out and, this time, the government leaders, fossil fuel lobbyists and the liberal tuggers on their heartstrings are heading to Brazil. #COP30

Hunger as a weapon of class war. #SNAP

For the corporate media's headline writers, #Palestinian suffering is a mysterious phenomenon that takes place for no apparent reason.

#PrinceWilliam pretends to work on a speech someone else has written for him as he flies by private jet to the #COP30 climate summit in Brazil. There is, however, nothing fake about his dirty great carbon footprint.

The gatekeepers of the official discourse have a lot to answer for. #GazaGenocide

The Football Association of Ireland (#FAI) has voted to submit a motion to the United European Football Association (#UEFA) to ban #Israel from all club and international competitions.

There's never a dull moment at the #Trump #WhiteHouse.

The travails of the #Conservatives are, of course, pleasant to watch at one level. However, #Carney is crafting a highly dangerous political consensus around austerity, fossil fuel development and militarism within the Canadian political establishment.
