🎁Gift Link Trump won’t get to heaven if he keeps murdering people on boats There was no legal or moral justification for the Trump-ordered boat bombing that killed 11 Venezuelans. It could be just the start. Will Bunch | Columnist 18 minutes ago share.inquirer.com/k3GRTQ
Word of the day is ‘tamalou’: a French name for an older person who no longer greets their friends with ‘how was your holiday?, but with ‘t’as mal où ?’, ‘where does it hurt?’. There follows an enthusiastic account of aches and pains and doctor’s appointments.

Oil of course! Sounds familiar... remember Iraq!
Sadly the worst people are in charge 😬
Only 4 of 220 House Republicans have signed Massie’s discharge petition so far. 216 of them are protecting pedophiles. They would happily send kids in their family to meet a pedo. www.newsweek.com/jeffrey-epst...
Mind blowing incompetence! 🙄🙈
Yesterday the president demanded that evidence about Covid vaccines be shown to the public. Today @apoorvanyt.bsky.social & I run through some of the studies made public over the past 4+ years that show that the vaccines work. Gift link: nyti.ms/46k17Tq
In the early 1990s I was involved in numerous LEO (law enforcement operations) missions with USCG boardings from a USN warship. We couldn’t board Venezuelan flagged vessels without their government’s permission. When we did board, the intel was routinely wrong and there were no drugs.
Check-mate! ♟️
New York does not miss. The bleach did it for me. 😭

Trump lies again. Huntsville has been called Rocket City since the 1960s. www.huntsville.org/blog/list/po...
Highly recommend this witty and thoughtful conversation about solar energy, including @billmckibben.bsky.social comment about Trump turning America into “a colonial Williamsburg of internal combustion.”
Agree! Remember this?.. and the sus timing of the first "assassination" attempt just a few days later.. www.bbc.com/news/article...

At least 10 gun industry businesses, including Glock, Smith & Wesson, Remington and Mossberg, secretly handed over names, addresses and other data to lobbyists, who used the details to rally firearm owners to elect pro-gun politicians. By @coreygjohnson.bsky.social (Published Oct. 2024)

Kevin Maguire: "If you're put up in a hotel & you get meals you get £10/wk.. all these terrible myths.. free iPads.. myths & lies have gone mainstream & we've got to challenge them.. we've gone back to the worst aspects of the 1970s where racism is becoming mainstream" Well said
"to ponder" absolutely no way that's him tweeting... definitely not part of his limited vocabulary

Good on them... one bite at a time🐘
Japan just launched a power plant to convert salt water to energy. China is building the world’s largest solar farm. Finland just launched a sand battery for heating. Nigeria is accessing geothermal energy. Trump / GOP have their fingers in their ears and are yelling Drill Baby Drill.
Holographic images of Trump have gone up in Los Angeles and it’s pretty cool.

My grandmother was a nurse who came of age in the nightmare years of whooping cough, measles, polio. She understood the power of vaccines to save children's lives. Now the anti-vaxx right wing conspiracy mob have laid out the welcome mat to these killers. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...
Exactly!
Cutting funding for kids with brain cancer trials?? Absolutely heartless. What kind of leader does this?? G-damn POS. 😡 #FDT #BlueCrew
If I can't have the Nobel Peace Prize, I'll make war👶🍼🧸🚼
#avfc for me, there’s not a chance of me going to the Villa v Tel Aviv game. From a personal safety pov and more pertinently of my daughter’s, I will not go anywhere near Villa Park that day. From a political pov, I find it appalling that UEFA have normalised sporting relations with a country that..
What a ridiculous person.
I applaud the UK 👏.
JD Vance on Donald Trump: “I’m a Never Trump guy. I never liked him. I don’t think he’s the person. I don’t think he cares about folks. I think that he’s noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.” { ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social }
The guy who wants the Nobel Peace Prize so desperately needs a War Department??? 🤔
Trump take LEGO
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Love Neil Young!! And he just came out with an awesome new song, “Big Crime,” : It does not mention Trump but includes lines such as, “There’s big crime in D.C. at the White House.” Click on link m.neilyoungarchives.com/news/1/Viewp...
"I had never seen anyone virtue-signal so gracefully, so effortlessly. I was like, 'I have to work with this guy.'" 😂😂😂😂 Meet Cory Booker's (fake) political consultant, played by Zeteo's very own @heycapello. "No one does it like Cory." zeteo.com/subscribe
A year ago today, Trump threatened to jail Zuckerberg for the rest of his life. Today, Trump is helping Meta win regulatory battles around the world. I wrote about everything that Zuckerberg has gotten from Trump 2.0 so far: www.platformer.news/trump-zucker...
Insane!!
I feel Bluesky is one of the few sane spaces in the world right now🙏
Pay attention, Canada. If Alberta is successful in this book banning, this will spread. Look around you, b/c this is how it starts. We're on the same ledge the US was on. And we either start fighting this right-wing rise now, or we follow the Americans over the edge. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

NEW: RFK Jr's purge of CDC leadership isn't shaking Democratic Gov Jared Polis' enthusiastic support of Kennedy to lead America's health policy. Today, Polis praised his collaboration with Kennedy, saying "We hope to work on making America healthier." #copolitics
At Tuesday’s Cabinet meeting, Donald Trump’s performance “seemed right out of the Kremlin playbook,” @sbg1.bsky.social writes. What did he reveal about his Administration’s true plans?
America's downfall: left v right; Republicans v Democrats; commonsense v stupidity; Christianity v everything
“When I call Kennedy a ‘dangerous crank,’ I'm not saying that as an insult or as hyperbole, but honestly as the most economical way of describing the man's views,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on RFK Jr.

🔥 @mizzwelch.bsky.social : “It’s the complete moral collapse of the 🇺🇸 government… the cabinet meeting with 3.5 hours of superficial praise is so cringeworthy… he redecorated the Oval Office like Marie Antoinette and built himself a ballroom because he has zero intention of leaving…”
Don’t look away
Worry again being expressed by public health officials about the number of unvaccinated children and the dreadful consequences that chicken pox and measles may bring...
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

From the Editorial Board: The engagement of a pop star and a football player seems well timed for the end of summer, cruel or otherwise, with the coming of cooler nights and a return to the bleachers.
... and start a war with Venezuela🎮 🙄
Pritzker: Over the last four years, we have seen homicides drop in half. That’s something the President should pay attention to. I know he doesn’t read but I know he watches TV so perhaps if someone from Fox or Newsmax is here
Constituent: You need to take your head out of Trump’s ass.
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
“Israel struck Nasser hospital in the south of the Gaza Strip on Monday, killing at least 20 people, including five journalists who worked for Reuters, the Associated Press, Al Jazeera and others.” 🥵🥵🥵8/25/25

I'm peer reviewing a manuscript for a reputable publisher and came across fake references which must be AI-generated - including to an article attributed to me which sounds fascinating but which I never wrote.
In Germany, scientists have made a breakthrough in treating Parkinson’s by implanting a chip in the brain that sends precise signals to restore movement. A stunning leap in neuroscience—witness the power of innovation and the beauty of science in action. Powerfull content

Where the Karakoram Highway connects Pakistan with China over the Khunjerab Pass at 4700m above sea level, one of the highest paved roads in the world.
This doesn’t feel very free speech-y
We're not going to bend the knee. We're going to stand and fight wherever we have to — from the state house to the court house, from Texas to California. Proud to stand with so many today who are willing to fight for this country at its moment of truth! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RYf...
And this is why Rick Scott doesn’t support a ban on stock trading by members of Congress. He’s making millions of dollars trading on insider information.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

A deep dive into what Todd Blanche let Ghislaine Maxwell get away with saying about the victims — without pushback — vs. the level of detail he elicits about topics that affect Trump. www.allrisenews.com/p/maxwell-tr...
Newsom: We can’t do things the way we’ve done. Let’s disabuse ourselves of that. The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purpose…
Like other Republicans, our bigoted President thinks slavery was just a job training program. Exactly what job was this individual being trained for, you despicable clown??
When Ted Turner asked Carl Sagan if he was a socialist, Sagan gave the answer America keeps failing to learn.
No such thing as a “cool dictator.” Peoples’ brains are addled if they think so.

The lack of self-awareness @gavinnewsom.bsky.social has baited them into is incredible. This is easily the funniest thing Hannity has ever said.
I fell while hiking near Folgefonna glacier & broke my femur, pelvis & some vertebrae. I was trapped on the mountain for 6 days & had to drink my urine. Bad calls got me into this. What got me out of it was the love of my wife, family & friends. I’m lucky to get a 2nd chance youtu.be/EM96OFPR6Mc?...
How many stories are there just like this in our nation right now?
Former PM of Australia 🇦🇺: “I’ve been with Trump and Putin. Trump is in awe of Putin… it’s like the 12 Year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero’.”
