Imagine we had a leader like this.
Instead of a craven coward lickspittle of psychotic fascists.
โ€œHappy international womenโ€™ s dayโ€ he says as he supports the US/israeli terrorist forces that bombed 165 little girls to death on day one of this war.
Resign. This is disgusting. Just inhuman.

Your not delivering for women. Domestic violence is at a crisis levels with a 35% increase in women killed in 2023โ€“24.

2 in 5 women have experienced violence since the age of 15

On average, 1 woman is killed every 9 days

350 requests for specialist homelessness support is going unassisted daily

โญ•๏ธ Full transcription of the message posted by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi who called Trumpโ€™s war on Iran a โ€œwar of choice pursued by a small cabal of โ€˜Israel Firstersโ€™โ€:

โธป

โ€œPresident Pezeshkianโ€™s openness to de-escalation within our regionโ€”provided that our neighborsโ€™ airspace, territory, and waters are not used to attack the Iranian Peopleโ€”was almost immediately killed by President Trumpโ€™s misinterpretation of our capabilities, determination and intent. If Mr. Trump seeks escalation, it is precisely what our Powerful Armed Forces have long been prepared for, and what he will get. Responsibility for any intensification of Iranโ€™s exercise of self-defense will lie squarely with the U.S. Administration.


Mr. Trumpโ€™s week-long misadventure has already cost the U.S. military $100 Billion, in addition to the lives of young soldiers. When markets reopen, that cost will balloon and directly be transferred to ordinary Americans at pumping stations.

Mr. Trumpโ€™s own National Intelligence Council, representing input from the 18 intelligence agencies of the U.S., determined that war on Iran is destined to fail. I also warned Mr. Trumpโ€™s envoys that war will not improve their bargaining position. Were these warnings conveyed?

The American People voted to end involvement in costly quagmires in the Middle East. Instead, they have ended up with an Administration that Netanyahu, after decades of failed attempts, finally managed to dupe into fighting Israelโ€™s wars.

This is a war of choice pursued by a small cabal of โ€˜Israel Firstersโ€™, and โ€˜Israel Firstโ€™ always means โ€˜America Lastโ€™.

Counting the coverage: The UKs media war on trans rights Data reveals the scale of the UK media's focus on trans issues: 6,450 articles in 2025 and more than 1,146 in the first two months of 2026.

UK mainstream media published 6,500 articles about trans people in 2023. It published a similar number in 2025, almost none of which were written by trans people

$3.7 Billion: Estimated Cost of Epic Furyโ€™s First 100 Hours Operation Epic Fury costs nearly $900 million per day, driven by the large expenditure of munitions. Because most of this is not in the budget, the Pentagon will soon need to ask for more money.

Never forget that the U.S. can always find money for war, but not for education, health care, or to help those in need. This is 100% a choice. And it is 100% the wrong one. www.csis.org/analysis/37-...
