This move is consistent with U.S. complicity in perpetrating the genocide in Gaza. I trust South Africa adds U.S. presidents Trump and Biden to the ICC lawsuit
Left civil war in Northern Ireland in the early 80's. Now find myself in a brewing civil war where there'll only be losers. Unless this latest iteration of tin-pot dictator can be beaten back.

these despicable animals put the Nazi's to shame
Trump withdraws Kamala Harris' secret service protection. Looking forward to the next Democratic president returning the favor with Trump. Good luck to the orange sack of flatulence when that happens.
Trump aides, without evidence, accuse governor Lisa Cook of fraud. Presumably ignoring that their boss is a convicted felon (fraud) and adjudicated rapist. If fraud is disqualifying the orange sack of flatulence must resign.
Trump's mission appears to be the complete destruction of the U.S.
IPC report on Gaza - Nearly 55,500 malnourished pregnant and breastfeeding women will require urgent nutrition response. Conditions in North Gaza Governorate are estimated to be as severe—or worse—than in Gaza Governorate. However, limited data access prevents IPC classification of this area.
IPC reports about Gaza - Through June 2026, at least 132,000 children under five are expected to suffer from acute malnutrition—double the IPC estimates from May 2025. This includes over 41,000 severe cases of children at heightened risk of death.
IPC reports Nearly a third of the Gaza population (641,000 people) are expected to face catastrophic conditions (IPC Phase 5), while those in Emergency (IPC Phase 4) will likely rise to 1.14 million (58 percent). Acute malnutrition is projected to continue worsening rapidly.
IPC reports 1.07 million people (54 percent) are in Emergency (IPC Phase 4), and 396,000 people (20 percent) are in Crisis (IPC Phase 3). Between mid-August and the end of September 2025, conditions are expected to further worsen with Famine projected to expand to Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis.
As of 15 August 2025, Famine (IPC Phase 5)—with reasonable evidence—is confirmed in Gaza Governorate. After 22 months of relentless conflict, over half a million people in the Gaza Strip are facing catastrophic conditions characterised by starvation, destitution and death.
I will no longer donate to a party lead by political weaklings like Schumer and Jeffries. We need leadership able and willing to fight fire with fire. With courage and vision. In touch with the challenges of day to day living. Who not only speak to food and housing affordability but offer solutions!
European governments must take action to stop the mass murder of Palestinians. Form an international military expeditionary force to protect food, water, medical shipments into Gaza. Tell the Israelis their mass murdering criminality will no longer be tolerated. Liberate Gaza's concentration camp.
IPC declares Phase 5 famine (with solid evidence) for Gaza. The only man-made famine on the planet underscores Israel's methodical execution of the final solution for Palestinians. www.ipcinfo.org

Trump agents stirring up anti-Danish sentiment in Greenland. Extradite these U.S. spies to Denmark and charge them with sedition. Life in prison if convicted.
Thoughts&PrayersInc. - Republicans back NRA proposal to train and arm priests.
Democracy advocates must build cases against every administration official, government toady, and the Trump crime syndicate. This isn't about retribution or punishment for law breaking. This is about punishing and deterring those who maliciously undermine the constitution. The price must be high.
Netanyahu doubles down on Israeli policy that Gaza doesn't deserve hospitals, doctors or journalists. Hoping this mass murderer gets the justice he deserves. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/...
Democrats better be building a running indictments list on the Trump administration. Assume volume one is complete.
As if we needed further proof of the pettiness and vindictiveness of the Trump administration

Trump/Republican Orwellian redistricting logic - "All people are equal, but some people are more equal than others"
I can confidently state that Farage hasn't had an original thought in his entire political career.
Schumer and Jeffries don't just bring a knife to a gun fight; they are the living embodiment of a gun to a knife fight.
I'm sure I'm not the first to point out that your comment is political
Where are Schumer and Jeffries? Might be marginally useful in a majority but on defense?? AWOL at a time when the very fabric of this country is being eroded, undermined, poisoned. Democracy supporters deserve far better than Queensbury rules and parliamentary fidelity. These are UFC fighter times.
The UN declares a famine exists in Gaza. Predictably the extremist Israeli government issues denials and blames Hamas. And the West shrugs. Meanwhile hundreds of thousands of children, women, and elderly sift through dirt for grains of rice. So how fun is your summer?
not creeping fascism. Rapidly accelerating fascism.
Appeasement led to the annexation of the Sudetenland from the Czech Republic in 1939. Trump appeasement of Putin will lead to the annexation of Donetsk Oblast regions similarly surrendering defensive and industrial riches. Putin like Hitler will militarize annexed territory against rump territory.
Echoes from 100 years ago reverberate across the U.S. and U.K. today. Fascism comes in many guises. www.podbean.com/wlei/dir-rkv...
if further proof were needed of the genocide being perpetrated by renegade Israeli so-called "settlers". This as the IDF facilitate Zionist crimes. www.bbc.com/news/article...
a literal putch by fascists: Bondi Tightens Trump’s Grip on D.C. Police and named an “emergency police commissioner,” with “all the powers and duties” invested in the city’s police chief. When will the populace wake up and respond to this assault on the freedoms and liberties of us citizens?
The brain addled slouching moron squatting on his golden urinal at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue should send his DEI brownshirts to deal with rampant crime and violence in Tennessee realestate.usnews.com/places/ranki...
Muriel Bowser declares a civil emergency; sends D.C. police to take over 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue due to massive spike in crime. Muriel thanks D.C. police for their attention to this matter.
War criminal Netanyahu and his genocidal cabinet must be extradited to The Hague to answer for their crimes against humanity. If any of these murdering scumbags set foot on soil of any of the 125 ICC signatories arrest and jail them. No safe haven for these criminals.
While Trump and Republicans are purging all references to climate change from policy, laws and libraries are insurance companies doing the same? Or are insurance actuarial models and policies still incorporating climate change into escalating rate charges? Insurance Co's shouldn't have it both ways.
Forty Israeli hostages starving in Gaza is tragic. They must be delivered back to their families. Two plus million starving hostages penned inside Gaza by Adolf Netanyahu's extremist regime is a crime. They must be fed and their suffering and sacrifice rewarded by their own state.
This is sounding very familiar to those living in the US www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUKa...
When a country's very existence depends completely on the killing, starvation, torture and expulsion of indigenous peoples, that country is immoral and an affront to civilizations anywhere.
Weird Question #1 has anyone noticed that screw in lightbulbs appear to loosen over time? It's true.
What sort of heritage? One involving Israeli perpetrated genocide, cynical lies, avarice and ultimately an act of desperate cowardice. This is Israel's shameful heritage moving forward. One that replaces the grisly acts of WW2. Of all the peoples on this planet, Israel rejects lessons from the past.
Thank you Chris Hayes for calling out the U.S. congress and the Trump administration for their passivity in the face of an extinction event in Gaza. Stop all support for Israel. Support an independent Palestinian state.
How do British visitor rules not apply to the convicted felon and rapist?
Jeffries, like his senate colleague & the entire congressional caucus, disgrace the Democrat party. Silence in the face of the mass slaughter of an indigenous population is unforgivable. He should resign and demonstrate morals are stronger than pursuit of power. MAGA Republicans are beyond saving.
In Gaza, the scale of the atrocity perpetrated on innocent women, children and the elderly by Israel, is exceeded by the casual, cynical and self-righteous pomposity of its government. Finally, western governments are calling for an end to the industrial scale slaughter. www.bbc.com/news/live/cx...
The depravity practiced by the IDF. The cynicism of the Israeli government when confronted by evidence of widespread starvation. The bald-faced lies of Israeli propagandists and western proxies. Stop the gruesome brutality. www.bbc.com/news/article...
I feel obligated to share this www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyks...
The Trump administration is ceding U.S. scientific leadership to friends and foes. China and the EU are obvious beneficiaries. Further, Trump's 15% tariff agreement with Japan combined with 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada offers structural advantages for Japanese car manufacturers. Art of the deal?
As the scale of human butchery by the IDF increases in Gaza (marked today by the killing by Israeli forces of 85 innocents daring to seek food aid), western governments, particularly the US, continue to support the wholesale eradication and expulsion of the indigenous Palestinian population.
RFK Jr better get used to living with the lives his extremist beliefs will end prematurely. Will he be able to look grieving families in the eye and tell them his voodoo pseudo-science was worth their sacrifice?
Donald Trump, his administration and the Republican Party have declared war on the United States of America. In words and deeds they've trampled on the constitution, rule of law, & political decorum all in pursuit of partisan and personal gain. Their mantra is 'Death to America' and MAGA applauds.
I'm cancelling subscriptions to ESPN, Xfinity TV, Paramount (different reason), DAZN so I can afford to set up a monthly subscription to my local NPR and PBS stations. The power of the market at work!
no public funding of NPR and PBS means public broadcasting is no longer handcuffed by self-imposed 'balanced' journalism. If MAGA land believes public radio and TV is left leaning, it's time to give them what they feared. Full throated criticism, satire and unrelenting real time fact checking.
ending my subscription to Paramount. Cravenly caving to political pressure is not the way to build viewership. This cancellation comes on top of my cancellations of Xfinity TV, Sling, DAZN and ESPN. I'm going to divert my subscription $'s to where facts and integrity still live - NPR and PBS.
also cancelled Xfinity TV. Cancel subscriptions that serve up state run media like Fox.
name the ribbon cutting events Slutnick!
Due to Republican a recision of funding for PBS and NPR, today I'm exercising my right to change my source of news and entertainment. I'm canceling subscriptions to Sling, ESPN+ and dazn and increasing my donation to PBS and NPR. Further cancelations are on the table. Inviting others to do the same
Bill Blain says this one chart explains most of what is driving populism. Trend lines strongly indicative of an overheated market.
I guess this is the season for sexual predators to run for political office
Homan is a knuckle dragging thug out of central casting. His jutting jawline and low brow reinforces a suspicion his ancient ancestors may well have spun off from an extinct line of homo erectus. He ejaculates at the thought of beating defenseless immigrants. How else can he sate his base desires.
IDF assaults two young Palestinians. No doubt there'll be an investigation. www.youtube.com/shorts/QMIGG...
Mamdani is right. There should be no billionaires. Ever. Anywhere.
MAGA would have you believe Trump's legislative obscenity spares seniors and middle income families. Let me disabuse you of any such notions. Insurance rates will rise, cost of electricity will rise, prices will rise, interest rates will rise, jobs will be lost, people will die in large numbers.
lays to rest any remaining delusions about Murkowski's alleged humanity
As Owen Jones argues, the BBC and Starmer government are comfortable going after artists in an attempt to draw attention from British government complicity in one of the most horrific acts of mass genocide in the last ninety years. Those responsible for enabling this gruesome butchery must pay.
Two thousand years ago the Roman historian Tacitus wrote the following "They're laying waste to everything, calling it "Empire," and they're making a desert and calling it "peace." Sound familiar?
and corporate owned media and politicians feign surprise and project deep offense when democratic socialists win. Trump's so called BBB is further evidence these mega billionaires are after the remaining paltry living wages of the 99%. The day is fast approaching when they'll need their bunkers!
popular in Europe as well as our northern neighbor
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei confirmed the country’s nuclear facilities had been “badly damaged” in American strikes over the weekend. Iran has every reason to tickle Trump's massive ego to protect nuclear resources. Well played!
Nato leaders praise Trump's magnificent leadership. Call him a powerful and peace loving genius. Of course they did. They've learned in order to get what they want they only need to stroke Trump's massive ego. I'm sure he purred bigly.
A bad case of projection detected. The Israeli government under Netanyahu is a genocidal entity deserving of universal rebuke and isolation. God help the planet if we were all to adopt your notion of "intelligence, creativity and a decent tech industry"
Narciso Barranco, a tax-paying landscaper and father of three marines, attacked, injured and kidnapped by masked Proud Boys posing as federal agents. Noem must prove they weren't Proud Boys. Who says they were feds? The masked thugs?
clearly we don't agree and probably never will but I must respect your opinion.
I doubt that anyone will forget Israel. Its government has ensured the country's notoriety. Likely for decades if not centuries to come.
I don't conflate religion with country. You may. I prefer not to.
MAGA never was about you. It's about billionaires first. United Healthcare first. Banks first. Corporations first. Christianity first. Lockheed Martin first. And yes, Israel first.
What sort of vice-like grip does the Israeli lobby have on western politics and politicians? We all understand the military-industrial complex will always lobby for war over peace.
If ICE persist with this approach I can guarantee next year's World Cup will be a debacle. I'm advising family and friends to spend next year's holiday in Europe. On the plus side, Mexico and Canada will be the beneficiaries when football fans boycott US stadiums.
Masked thugs and heavily armed soldiers attacking Democratic politicians and supporters. Radicalized MAGA terrorists assassinating or planning to assassinate opponents. This is an emergency. The US is teetering on the brink. All of this instigated by a geriatric wannabe dictator aided by Republicans
best wishes to you, your dad and daughter
Congrats Chardon OH!!
this is good news and a slap in the face of all wannabe fascist populists hoping to dismantle European solidarity.
absolutely fantastic scenes in Boston. Seattle march drew an estimated 70,000 people
you mean heavily armed masked thugs claiming to be border patrol attempt to silence a peaceful protest with violence
was also at yesterday's No Kings protest in Seattle. Amazing crowd. Very creative signs and costumes. Fantastic mix of races, ethnicities and ages all in great spirits but serious about why they were there. Local TV estimated 70,000 participated.
Wars in Ukraine, Yemen and Israel attacking Palestinians, Iran, Jordan, Syria. Wars on US streets provoked by heavy handed Trump policies. Prices and inflation on the rise. Falling stock market. Rising bond rates. Stolen citizen databases handed off to Palintir to create a vast surveillance state.
Here's a radical thought. Trump's threat to global economic, health, climate and geo-political well being are so monumentally high (think trillions of dollars of lost growth, millions of lives lost, millions of people displaced) the world should go fund his departure. Greatest investment ever?
found lots of them washing up on Copalis Beach WA recently
your humanity does a credit to you and your community. These ICE raids are shameless. Next these militarized thugs will be raiding pre-school playgrounds. MAGA must be proud of their disgusting inhumanity.
Proud to have graduated from Queen's University Belfast, www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rGX...
low brow knuckle dragging neanderthals festooned in military regalia no doubt on their way to arrest some kindergarten children in the playground.
The latest in a line of fascist propagandists - Lord Haw Haw, Tokyo Rose, Joseph Goebbels and now Taco Belle
We all are going to die’ t-shirts circulate after Sen. Joni Ernst town hall. Ernst is callous, comfortable, aloof, arrogant, rich, invulnerable, ignorant, indifferent, irreverent. Oh, and she has tax-payer paid healthcare for the rest of her vile life.
Is Trump a stealth Chinese agent? He sure as hell acts like one. While his administration gets busy gutting renewables and alternative energy China rolls out EV's that kick Tesla's but and battery innovations. Way to go Taco. www.bbc.com/future/artic...
In a BBC interview newly appointed Netanyahu genocide denier Caroline Glick accuses Palestinians of deliberately throwing themselves in front of IDF bullets at a Gaza food distribution center. WH Caroline suggests starving families should form neat lines and say thank you to their camp guards
IDF in Gaza now using food as bait while mowing down starving families as they walk toward emergency food distribution center. Not once or twice but multiple times.
Trying to outflank Farage on the far right of U.K. politics is so Liz Truss.
Trump's pardon attorney "No MAGA left behind" Ed Martin signals to loyalists (think insurrectionists) that unloading on political opponents will receive his blessing.
Can Britain not find a single politician capable of calling Farage's bluff? British media is drawn to his incendiary rhetoric like moths to flames.
Britain ought to appreciate what Ukraine is suffering. Its' people endured a Nazi aerial bombardment. Ukraine's drones are Britains Spitfires.
