"The first step toward a durable peace is to defeat that narrative: However hard Russia tries and however much pain it inflicts, it cannot subjugate Ukraine."

Government Surveillance 🤝 Corporate Surveillance

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post — including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East — based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.

Bro, ICE is still here kidnapping people, now they’ve even got transit vans advertising fake companies.

NEW: The House Ethics Committee will investigate allegations that GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales had an affair with a former staff member who later died after setting herself on fire.

In November this government announced plans to use more work and study routes instead of asylum ones. Now they're blocking people in need of asylum from using work and study visas. This is a move guaranteed to increase number of people forced onto irregular routes

Iran ’targeted Gulf with more missiles and drones than Israel’ Iran has attacked US bases in the Gulf, as well civilian targets, causing chaos and casualties across the region.

While we're hooked on oil & gas we're vulnerable to price shocks caused by a rogue US president.

It doesn't have to be like this.

Invest in renewables, insulate our homes, cut the cost of living.

Feargal is superb. Get him involved in govt.

1- Arming Kurdish forces to spark an uprising in Iran would be strategically self-defeating. It shifts the crisis from “regime vs. Iranian society” into “Iran vs. separatists and foreign-backed insurgents,” handing Tehran its strongest card: nationalist consolidation.

"... as far as both parties are concerned the insurgent Green Party has come from nowhere and threatens to drag politics as a whole into confrontation with property, work, income, living standards, and why the rich have prospered at everyone else's expense."

I don’t give a fuck about whatever damn rhetoric you might want to use and whatever bloody politics you support. The entities, armies, and the leaders who approved this are terrorists and are responsible for cultural genocide and need to be treated as such. Fuck Bibi, Fuck IDF, fuck T-rump.
