YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by nameβ€”citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Reform council’s plan to shut eight care homes β€˜a betrayal of local people’ Announcement after proposed sale falls through prompts backlash and union says more than 200 jobs at risk

Reform UK-led Derbyshire council announce closure of eight residential care homes just days before Christmas.

That's going to spell misery and considerable upset for hundreds of vulnerable people and their carers.

β€˜Climate of fear’: Montreal doctor says NYU cancelled her presentation A Montreal doctor says her presentation at NYU was abruptly cancelled and believes the university did so out of fear of being pressured by the Donald Trump administration.

NYU canceled a planned speech by the former president of Doctors Without Borders because she planned to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and cuts to US AID.

This is what actual campus censorship looks like.

Former U.K. Labour Leader Corbyn: Ukraine War Is 'Disgraceful' And Russia's 'Wrong At Every Level' Jeremy Corbyn, the former British opposition leader, says the UN and the West should have been tougher on Russian President Vladimir Putin early on, and expanding alliances like NATO isn't "the best w...

What!? I literally just condemned Williamson and those far left loons for spouting dangerous nonsense about Ukraine, Nazis and NATO. They're utterly delusional. Here's an interview where Corbyn on the other hand repeatedly blames Putin for the war. #Receipts www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-co...

How am I rewriting history? I'm pointing out Corbyn was outing Putin for being a thug 20+ years ago while centrists were still fawning over him. He's repeatedly blamed Putin for the war, unlike Williamson and other far left clowns who spout dangerous conspiracy nonsense about Ukraine, NATO & Nazis.

No one in DC can bargain in good faith with Trump because he will not follow laws passed by Congress.

No one internationally can bargain in good faith with Trump because he will not respect agreements made by the United States.

Being a counterparty just makes you a target for another shakedown.

There are plenty of idiots on the far left who are Putin apologists, but Corbyn saw through Putin long before others, including Blair. Corbyn isn't a Putin apologist. He's repeatedly blamed Putin for the war. He's perhaps naΓ―ve about how a peaceful, lasting resolution comes about.

Problem is I'm already seeing Reform voters pivoting to the position that the CIA and the West are to blame, VZ is a corrupt Nazi supporting stooge, and Ukraine goaded Russia into this. They'll buy any old shite

If you answer yes, then I think Trump and the MAGA movement is stupid. Matters of geopolitics should not be affected by issues of fashion.

If you answered no, then I think we agree that this is just a pretense. Trump's position on Ukraine is not about clothes. And MAGA follows whatever Trump says.

🧡Three years ago, when Russia invaded Ukraine, EU, UK and other nations vowed to wage economic war, via the toughest sanctions in history.
So... how's that going?

Through his company SpaceX and division Starlink, Elon Musk's involvement in the Russo-Ukrainian War has been significant, and met with concerns.[27] In 2024, USAID's Inspector General notified Congress a probe was being launched to investigate, among other things, USAID's oversight of Starlink Satellite Terminals provided to the Ukrainian government.[28]

Reading up on Starlink (starting on Wikipedia), I stumbled across this paragraph. It could explain why USAID was targeted so quickly and ruthlessly by Elon Musk.

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend.

I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
