Truth be told
Well done Murphy
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Stop promoting Reform Limited and Farage and Tice et al to the expense of all other political parties in the UK and start being decent unbiased journalists.

So apparently the big beautiful wall isn’t stopping people crossing the border….but black paint will….🤔….🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love this
It was my first thought as well
Sounds deranged

“To turn a whole movement into a terrorist organisation is quite another matter” Labour's Baroness Chakrabarti spoke after 532 people were arrested at a protest in support of banned group Palestine Action
No I didn’t, because this a bait for revenue for the Washington Post…. And I choose not to give my limited income to corporations…. But yeah read before comment and by all means keep pushing those subs
"I never have been in despair about the world. Enraged. I've been enraged by the world, but never despair. I cannot afford despair. You can't tell the children that there is no hope." ~James Baldwin
Those tragic things which were meant to break us instead become the means by which we offer hope to others, and pray for the whole world with sincere and profound empathy. God can create beauty from complete desolation — St. Olga of Alaska

Things are so bad, the planet is calling for Batman.
More please…
There are two types of people, those who plant trees for future generations. And those who leave pollution. The latter shouldn't be allowed anywhere near government or power.
As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

Take care of yourself and know your voice is appreciated.

These words from my friend Rene Padilla ring true, more and more every day. The church is meant to be the conscience of our nation.
Agreed
"In the #church of forest,I find faith, Where rolling meadows cradle my spirit in embrace. Summer haze,a shroud of gray clouds above, The smoke from my heart rises, a fragrant incense of love. I commune with ancient trees and whisper to old walls, In this sacred rite,my soul answers nature's calls"
We know too well the devastating consequences of such action—families torn apart, livelihoods destroyed, and multigenerational trauma inflicted on a community for decades. #AlligatorAlcatraz #NeverAgainIsNow
Persepolis…. Autobiographical way to tell the story of Iran… again should be required (8)
New Kid…. Trauma of middle school and personal development when you are the new kid…. Worth reading…. These personal narratives are often a catalyst for helping people to open up to the horrors of wider oppression, trauma of war, human inhumanity (7)
They Called Us Enemy…. George Takei’s life narrative especially for the US should be required reading (6)
Welcome to the New World…. Immigrant & Refugee experience of 1st Trump administration (5)
Maus…. Also required reading, this is my third or fourth copy… (4)
Palestine…. Might be controversial but should be required reading (3)
Freiheit about a WWII German non violent resistance movement (2)
My collection of graphic novels and the issues of justice, genocide, historic events: (1)
Or read the graphic novels…

A short Jew speaking Aramaic, from Galilee, with dark skin, dark hair, and dark eyes, named Jesus, would be cuffed and stuffed by the jack-booted knuckle-dragging thugs from ICE so fast it would make your head spin.
I just got wind of this.... It's still relevant...with Juneteeth commemorated almost a month ago, & today is now 4th July blackpressusa.com/exclusive-op...
More than 100 people have been convicted of LGBTQ+ ‘extremism’ in Russia

Seriously…. What you are missing is the dead naming of native nations… example: southwestern nation Dine’ named by the Spanish as Navajo (lazy thief)

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952
And let's all just sit back and watch them do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬💥
True, but they just don’t like to actually serve in the military nor take care of those that do…
Yes, war is profitable. Dwight Eisenhower warned America to beware of the military industrial complex. I feel sick about this.
And your transition into a used car dealership is now complete

Coral reefs support 25% of marine species. Coral reefs have dropped by 50% since since 1950. Don't let anyone tell you this isn't a crisis.
Such a hypocrite.
The story of LGBT rights is a story of advances followed by setbacks followed by media with no skin in the game saying, "It's because you were too loud/asked for too much/moved too fast/got too big for your britches/didn't make your case." That never changes--but happily it's never the last word.
I suspect he did and because it is a public arena… they decided to slowly, each day inch it out the door…. Otherwise it would have been the slash and burn method deployed in the back rooms

Terry Moran worked at ABC for 28 years. Now, for calling Stephen Miller “hateful,” (which he 💯 is per his own family), ABC fired him to appease an authoritarian hypocrite who ran on “free speech.” This will have a chilling effect on all journalists. Fourth Estate fails. Authoritarianism advances.
Rat fleeing a sinking ship?
A question that has constantly been on my mind since the beginning of these illegal police state actions..
1/ It doesn’t matter if Trump is lying. His lies don’t need to be true. They just need to be loud, repeated, and echoed. Right-wing media will fall in line. The base will parrot it. Eventually, the lie becomes “just one side of the story.” #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue
~ James Baldwin
This is not about law and order. This is an egregious attack on our fundamental rights and liberties to set the stage for totalitarian rule. This is not a drill. Fascism is here.
A tale as old as history..
Immigrant Trump. Here is the evidence...
Happy Fragile Straight Man Month!
Murdering someone because of who they love is egregious any time; it’s particularly disgusting during Pride month. I want to know why. WHY?! Why do you so-called alpha males become dainty snowflakes over men loving men? Why are you so WEAK, another man’s happiness makes you quiver? WHY GD IT?!
🤔😃🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
#ProudBlue Bravo! 👏 More of this, please.
Whereas…. Nigel will promise anything to become PM…. was on mine

Trying to dunk on a guy dying of cancer only does one thing: it makes you exactly like the people that are destroying our country right now. Jesus, this regime is rotting people from the inside.
Could you, for those of us who don’t live in the states, tell us who,what, etc…. So we can understand…. Thanks
Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

The Trump administration just sent the Secret Service to my house for posting "8647" on social media. They are literally redefining phrase as threats just so they can go after their political opponents.
Shouldn’t that be …. In the USA we are constitutionally required to defend Democracy from the President
Congratulations Thea Chalow on your excellent Letter to the Editor in today's Daily Star!
Schools are meant for education and creativity – not fear and censorship.
Two years ago, eight people were killed and seven injured in a mass shooting at Allen Premium Outlets in Allen, Texas. Call Congress and urge them to cosponsor an #AssaultWeaponsBan. (202) 224-3121 We remember the lives taken and will continue to #HonorwithAction.
