The words Barack spoke ring true more and more each and every day.

We must keep using our voices to demand change. No one is here to rescue us, but us.

As a reminder of what true leadership in a POTUS looks like, we show appreciation to him today.

Privatisation in a nutshell:

Steal from us something we own.

Sell us back an inferior service at a higher price.

The pattern is the same everywhere: water, railways, the NHS, public services, council services…

SpaceX says a leak in-flight has caused Starship to lose attitude control. The spacecraft is in a suborbital spin and likely will have an uncontrolled reentry over the Indian Ocean. This follows other mission setbacks — loss of booster during return and failure of payload doors to open. 🖥️ SpaceX

You know a cause is morally bankrupt when the “evidence“ used to support it is selective, factually incorrect and non-evidence based. A prime example being the cause of con man-of-the-people Nigel Farage and the far right.

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times

Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:
4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care
In 2023, a Mexican girl, 4, was allowed U.S. entry for lifesaving medical care. She and her parents, who live in Bakersfield, have been told they must leave.
