Wow, is that a Q in his tiny hand?
Jones: We have a presidential administration that has more outrage about the changing of the cracker barrel logo than they do about changing the policies that allow our children to be gunned down in school…
🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐
So lemme get this straight... This kid who shot up a church posted about doing this online *for a month*? And no one did anything about this? Isn't this literally the point of homeland security, the FBI, the DoJ? Worthless, the whole friggin lot of em.

If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.
Needs more than prayers.
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
Farage, the 21st century Alf Garnet, just as vile and ignorant.
The Church of Saint Porphyrius and the Holy Family Church in Gaza issued a joint statement today declaring that priests and nuns will not leave Gaza City despite Israeli threats to erase the city and the ongoing assault. Both churches shelter large numbers of elderly people and persons with
Would that be Russia with a lower GDP than Italy? So far they can't get more than a few kms from their own border. Doubt that the old Russian WW2 tanks could travel the distance without breaking down.
How very terrible for them. Perhaps Russia should focus on its own problems instead of inflicting war and death on others.
Why do we have this racist fool pushed down our throats by the BBC every night? BBC News - Reform UK prepared to deport 600,000 under migration plans - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
I go. I try. And I will keep trying, even though it feels like a losing battle. Because I remember the whole point of the far-right astroturfing of social media is to make it feel like a losing battle, to make us give up. Anyway, a few snippets on small boat crossings and immigration.
Well done Norway, leading the way. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
Trump looks like he's just been wheeled out from a care home and given a picture to hold.
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion

Schiff on the Bolton raid: "They're essentially going after any critic, any opposition in an effort to intimidate them. That's what this is about. It's not about Bolton per se. It's about anyone else that like Bolton might stand up to the president."
Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”
🤣🔊🆙 Repost please or quote. Just spread the truth 👍
Kushner, the ex jailbird, perfect representative of Trump's criminal administration.
Reform’s Brexit is the reason Eurostar left Kent, immigration rocketed, small boat crossing started and the UK went into decline. They need to be reminded of this at every opportunity. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
You tell ‘em, Gavin!
A beatdown in broad daylight was caught on video: Masked men in tactical vests grappled, tased, and piled onto a delivery worker. Pinning the worker face down on the pavement, agents tased him again and punched him repeatedly in the head.
Trump's promises are worthless, he flips back and forth like a metronome.
👇👇
Between his crypto ventures, real estate deals, and licensing agreements, Trump and his family have profited off the presidency to the tune of $3.4 billion. The grifter-in-chief knows no bounds. We must not become numb to this.
GOOD TWEET. GOOD MOOD. FIGHT.
Mike Pence: "I would have liked to have seen a ceasefire, but the truth is that no deal is better than a bad deal...The bad guy here is Putin. Putin launched an unproved, brutal invasion...Now more than ever, America and our allies need to stand strongly with Ukraine."
The DOJ sandwich thrower as it turns out is a much decorated active duty staff Sergeant in the Marines. He identified himself immediately and offered to self surrender to the felony charge, but they sent 20 officers to arrest him. What a debacle it would be if the grand jury declines to indict.
A tale of two vibes.
Denver celebrated (their) streets in a 2025 resident/citizen-driven music festival, today, 16 Aug.
The fact that the President spent yesterday invading the nation's capital at one end of the country and capitulating to Russia at the other end of the country sure is something else, huh.
Wonder what Foxnews would be talking about all day this week if Obama had done this?

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."
This is absolutely horrendous.

The truth here is so ever relevant, is so simple and profound. I think I might pop it into my next book. Sharing yet again:
I remember when this happened.
Folk don’t wake up one morning and think, I know, just for fun lets trek 100’s of miles, go hungry, thirsty, cold and wet and then sit in a small inflatable to cross one of the most dangerous shippings lanes to be treated like shit. They deserve our respect.
@anneapplebaum.bsky.social: “The West doesn’t understand the extremism of Putinism…that (its) goals involve the destruction of the transatlantic alliance & maybe of the EU…The path to peace is through convincing Putin that he won’t win the war, that it’s hopeless.” (ht: @berlinbridge.bsky.social)

Bravo to this Scottish paper!

What happened to the Epstein client list that Pam Bondi said was on her desk? 🤨
Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma schools chief who wants bibles in the classroom and Christianity taught to kids, just got caught watching adult content. On his work computer. During a Board of Education meeting. Read that again. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/ryan-walte...
If you haven’t tuned in yet, check out Colbert—he’s all out of f*cks, and it’s absolutely epic. Don’t miss last night’s song parody: “Mike Johnson Delays House Epstein Vote Until September.”
MAKE EPSTEIN THE MOST POPULAR WORD IN AMERICA AND WATCH THE WORM SQUIRM!
Heading into NYC for a live shot, and this is the sign on one of the overpasses
So just to be clear - the “protect the kids” party is now shutting the government down to protect sexual predators? Do we have this right?
Pathetic ignorant response from Yorkshire Police. Where's the apology? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...
The gods have smiled on you John, James Cleverly is back on the scene 😂.
All of us - not just those on Medicaid or food stamps - will be directly paying for the costs of the billionaire tax breaks in the Trump budget package. Here's how.
The lurching horror of our national immigration narrative is on full display today. Even two years ago, I believe almost all media would have framed the victims of the Afghan leak as allies to whom we have a duty of care. In the Mail today, they are ‘migrants’ being ‘smuggled’ in to the country.
Posting this for no particular reason.

Why so quiet, JD?
Angus: Canadians need to be really ready. We are upping our investment in military spending significantly. We are now procuring from the Europeans—whereas before, we would have just gone to the United States as usual to buy gear. We’re not buying gear from the United States.
This is a real post from the official WH account. This is what he’s done to lower us all down to his base level.
Starving Gazans are being slaughtered as they line up for food.
They wear masks because they are ashamed of what they are doing.
Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported. The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us. Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending? Not justice, it’s a betrayal.
🤣🤣
Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣
Time to cut the Moscow metro power on a busy Monday morning, a small token illustration of the pain Russia is putting Ukrainians through every day.
Happy Barack Obama Appreciation Day!
My sign for tomorrow. Hope I hear horns! 😆
Obama is the best of ‘em!

June 14, 2025 Presidents Barack Obama & Joe Biden Appreciation Day
Congrats, #Russia: 1 million soldiers, 50k vehicles,10k tanks, and 416 aircrafts lost. Ruined economy & reputation.Vassal state under #China. “3-day war” = 1176 days. 0.7% territory “conquered” in all of 2024. Russia started the war. Russia refuses to stop the war. Russia is losing the war.
This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance. So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people. Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it. Postb it, blow it up and get it out there! #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦
NATO must recruit Ukraine as it has vital experience and technology in modern warfare.
Russia escalates its war. So we increase the pressure on them to stop. Today, we proposed a new sanctions package which seeks to cut Russia’s energy revenues with a $45 oil price cap, ban more shadow vessels, while slowing down its military industry.
