When your 4 year old accidentally tells THE ENTIRE FUCKING WORLD that YOU STOLE THE ELECTION FOR DONALD TRUMP

Keep in mind this was FOUR HOURS before ANY NEWS OUTLET HAD CALLED THE RACE.

So much for “They’ll never know!” Elon musk. And just so *you* know: WE ALWAYS FUCKING KNEW 🎯💯🎯💯🤬🤬🤬🤬

Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."

This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?

Trump lifted some oil sanctions on Russia, called Putin and praised him for being "helpful," and didn't call Zelenskyy to thank Ukraine for providing drone interceptors to the U.S. military.

Americans and Ukrainians correctly see this as Trump taking Russia's side against them.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

The BBC have some sickening reporting on e-bikes…

‘There is a reason these bikes are banned from the road’

If it’s banned from the road it’s highly unlikely to be an e-bike. It’s an ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE.

Get better BBC. Inaccurate and therefore misleading.

DOJ improperly withheld FBI reports of interviews with an alleged Epstein victim who also alleged that Trump assaulted her as a young teenager. There is reporting that DOJ found her credible (this does not mean that it is true). I know there is a lot going on, but this should be a much bigger story.

Epstein's network had tentacles everywhere.

There must be many many people that know important and damning info.

If you have information, give it to investigators in a country that is doing something...not the US.

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

It now appears clear that Jeffrey Epstein did NOT off himself, based on staff talk overheard by inmates, independent bank reports that large deposits of money were made to the guard in charge at the time, and 2 suspiciously nonfunctioning cameras.

While we're talking about Live Nation/Ticketmaster's sweetheart antirust settlement, a reminder that it paid ZERO federal income tax last year on $145M in profits— largely due to Trump's tax cuts.

Trump works on behalf of the most powerful corporations.

Not you.

The previous U.S. administration overestimated Russia's military leadership and strength, and slow walked weapons that could have been pivotal in ending the war in Ukraine. Enter Trump, a Putin ally, and it got worse. The loss of innocent lives is always the result. #Ukraine #USA #EU @ec.europa.eu

Everyone here knows Fox News lies to its viewers, but this is an example that not even the most diehard members of the cult can deny, and it's important to not brush it off.

“We have an administration in the United States which is flooding the atmosphere with lies, not in order to be believed, but to confuse, to confuse that there is no truth,” Mary Robinson said.

“Truth is our relations with each other ... we must flourish together.”

Striking that Trump's minions are more critical of European countries for limited support, or sitting this war out, than they are of Putin for handing information to Iran

UK must stockpile food in readiness for climate shocks or war, expert warns Prof Tim Lang says country produces far less food than it needs to feed population and is particularly vulnerable

Meanwhile, Irish agriculture system entirely incapable of meeting fundamental food needs of our population, with its export-based model predicated on massive fertiliser, animal feed imports.

We are shockingly vulnerable yet nobody is even talking about it.

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkey—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprus—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.

I think this is Israel.

WAR CRIME BY THE US.

An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US.

The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship.

THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown.

This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.
