In case you missed it ...
The far-right's obsession with flagshagging is nothing new. During the Brexit campaign, they even released this video to scare people into thinking it was the "Imperial EU" that wanted its flag on every corner and roundabout! But as we now know, the opposite was true!

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

NEW: Sunrise over Hurricane Melissa.

For too many Jamaicans, this will be a life-changing event.

Melissa has now surpassed Hurricane Katrina in strength. It is the 8th strongest hurricane in recorded history.

Absolutely, we should tell people who are thinking of voting Reform that it's the political equivalent of drunk driving, something only arseholes do.

Walz: "We have a federal system that we're all in it together, we help other states when they need it, but we have a situation where they're trying to divide us & provide specific aid to states that they like at the moment, which is absolutely unconscionable... either that or give us our money back"

Ha! So do I, Mark!! 🤣🤣

Just hoping that one day soon, people will tire of targeting and terrifying asylum seekers and instead, they will turn on politicians who whip up hatred and division to grab at power for themselves…
They are the ones who are failing us.
Not these people.
Prejudice can never make anyone’s life better

Tim Walz: "People are gonna be lined up out here to get food, and we're talking about a damn ballroom. Don't lose the plot."

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Last week:

-Trump pardoned Binance's founder after a $2B deal with his crypto firm
-Hegseth awards a DoD contract to a Don Jr.-backed firm
-Trump orders his DOJ cronies pay him $230M in "compensation"

California to Monitor Trump’s DOJ Poll Watchers Amid Concerns of Voter Intimidation, Election Interference Read more here.

California is preparing to send its own state observers to watch over federal monitors from President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice. The move underscores a growing standoff between state election officials and a federal government many voting rights advocates say is weaponizing oversight.

An Independent Scotland will be one of the Richest Countries in Europe.

Independence is normal.

The White House is supposed to be the people’s house.

Under Trump, it’s become the billionaires’ house — and they’re bankrolling its desecration.

Meiselas: Scott Perry says that Democrats join the military just so they can run for office — and that Democrats hate the military.

Deluzio: Just an unbelievable load of bullshit. I’d dare him to go say that in front of the Democrats in his district who are veterans — there are thousands of them.

Not surprisingly, most of the U.S. tariffs are being paid by American companies and consumers — NOT by foreign exporters.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

How can a woman be fined £150 for pouring a cup of coffee down a drain when water companies are still pumping billions of litres of shit into our rivers?

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

Good: Jamie Raskin tells me he's formally demanding any/all internal communications between WH and DOJ on Trump's $230 million payoff.

More Dems should talk this way about Trump's criming. He's turning the presidency into a massive Bribe Delivery System.

It's reassuring to know that the UK Labour Government's multi-million-pound "one in, one out" immigration policy has been rebranded as "one in, one out, one in," which adds on an extra couple of million pounds but doesn't reduce or deter small boat immigration. Well done Labour. 👏

Frozen fish on ice with headline text ‘GUTTED – How Westminster slashed funding to Scotland’s fishing industry.

Scotland’s fishing industry makes up more than half of the UK’s total catch.

Yet Labour’s new funding plan gives us less than 8% of the support.

They’re gutting our industry to boost England’s - just like they have with others.

If all the people supposed to be included in the Epstein Files were poor, brown skin or spoke with 'funny accents' they'd have been arrested and in jail years ago.

What’s the attraction to Argentina?

We’re making loans to Argentina we can’t afford, bankrupting American farmers giving Argentina their markets, and now looking to take business away from American ranchers, mostly GOP supporters, what’s up with all that?

The WM Establishment, that knowingly allowed innocent Post Office employees to be sent to jail, are now compounding their criminality, by slashing their compensation claims. Shame on all Establishment MP's.
