An infographic titled "president Trump is reshaping the media", reposted from his truth social account.

Raging at Media, Pete Hegseth Just Said the Quiet Part Out Loud He wants “patriotic” coverage of the Iran War. He doesn’t understand: in a democracy, coverage that asks difficult questions of the government is itself “patriotic.”

When Starmer called @zackpolanski.bsky.social “extreme” left the other day, I dug out some Ed bits which sound very similar to Green Party

In a time of Trump spinning about windmills and Reform with their millions of fossil fuel donors ranting about net zero, energy needs to be to the fore

So this post broke containment and lost a little of the context when it did but Bikini Kill are the ones donating to TCP, not Bandcamp. We generally choose a different org or mutual aid fund to support on Bandcamp Fridays and this is what we chose this month.

Must be so sad to be Ukrainian and witness the USA burn through more missile interceptors in the first five days of the illegal war it started against Iran than it contributed to Ukraine's defence in the past 4 years.
