How it started How it’s going

Fetterman edition

Trump’s War With Iran Is Also a Climate War Fossil fuels are structurally embedded in modern warfare.

“The linkages flow in both directions. Wars unleash gargantuan amounts of planet-warming emissions…Those extra emissions drive deadlier heat…and other impacts that..[make] armed conflict more likely… Yet war has the perverse effect of pushing the climate story down the news agenda.”

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

Great, but Canada's PM is generating headlines like this one: "Canada won’t rule out military participation in Middle East conflict: PM Carney"

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.

Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.

This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

Tweets about people asking Grok which president told the most lies.

Bahahaha. 😁😏

Canada, 2026 (more to the point: Toronto, centre of liberalism).

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue.

I’ll have more to say tomorrow. I’m safe.

They also didn’t pay cover 🖕

Beware of false profits.‼️

Good—Slop—God.

Google faces lawsuit after Gemini chatbot allegedly instructed man to kill himself Lawsuit is first wrongful death case brought against Google over flagship AI product after death of Jonathan Gavalas

So many reasons to dump #Google. Not sure how many we need before it starts a real exodus.

🤥 @KristiNoem today: “I didn’t call Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist.”

FLASHBACK: she sure did 👇🏽

Iraqi Human Rights Activist and Feminist Yanar Mohammed Is Murdered Outside Her Baghdad Home Prominent Iraqi human rights defender and feminist advocate Yanar Mohammed was killed in an armed attack on her home in Baghdad Monday. Mohammed had reportedly returned to Iraq from Canada a few days ...

Yanar Mohammed, Rest in Power. I hope they catch the misogynists who murdered this fearless women's rights activist, but that is likely asking too much. #feminism

This kind of urban redesign is badly needed here in Sofia, where people in giant cars regularly drive 60-70 km/hr down residential streets, often alongside children gathered on sidewalks. Bravo Paris!

In a democracy, the war on Iran would not be possible.

Global News’ Ben Mulroney Shared a Video of Airstrikes. The Footage is Actually from a Video Game. The host of Global News’ West Block gets lost in a misinformation-driven fog of war as American and Israeli forces strike Iran

Ben Mulroney shared a clip of airstrikes that was from a video game.

"This is one of the most AMAZING videos I have ever seen,” the post Mulroney shared said. “It doesn’t even look real.”

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

Pathetic and predictable from a Neoliberal banker.

Always the first to flee while everyone else suffers the consequences.

The Pentagon is hanging the White House out to dry.

Here's how the story should have been written:
"Despite a strike that killed more than 100 Iranian schoolgirls, PM Mark Carney has endorsed Donald Trump's attack on Iran..."

The lying, racist Mail on Sunday going Full Trump after its Far Right candidate got spanked in the by-election.

We need proper controls on dishonest journalism that peddles racial hatred.

CONGRESS declares war.

NOT President tRumpstein.

As an Iranian in exile as some call it, I want nothing more than a regime change in Iran.

But what I don't want is my country destroyed, people killed, and all looted by Americans!

#FuckYourWar

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

Left-wing MEPs push Commission to finance abortions in the EU Signed by 105 MEPs, the letter to Ursula von der Leyen calls for a European fund to ensure effective access to reproductive healthcare, a move one million European citizens have requested. #EuropeNews

105 members of the European Parliament sent a letter to the Commission’s President Ursula von der Leyen, putting pressure on her to support the European Citizens’ Initiative “My Voice, My Choice”. It could improve access to safe abortion in Europe by funding travel from countries with less access.
