The US has become a destabilising threat in its enabling of Russia. Trump has no moral core. Ukraine is an irritating inconvenience blocking him making deals with Putin.

Imagine having no prospects for work, or for buying a home, or raising a family... and on top of it, the leaders who could help you with that are apparently deeply tied to a cabal of child rapists. That's what the youngest generations are looking at right now.

What about the 2 million unreleased Epstein files tho

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

The cover-up just never ends. Rest in peace, Ruben Ray Martinez.

Ossoff: "If you live in a major democracy, and the nation's spy chief is showing up at raids on sensitive election sites, something has gone wrong."

Labour is lifting half a million children out of poverty.

Reform wants to put them straight back there.

Nigel Farage should be ashamed.

Must be nice to have a functioning Supreme Court.

Hugh Hefner's Widow Says Photos Of Underage Girls Found In His Scrapbooks And Journals Crystal Hefner's lawyer said they have been informed that the Hugh M. Hefner Foundation is going to digitize the photos of the women and girls.

Huh? The guy who founded Playboy had nudes of young girls? The guy who lived in a bathrobe & had blow out parties? Who would believe it? Old, saggy, wealthy white guys; is there ever enough for them? And a 60 yr age gap kinda gives it away. 🤮But she's "shocked!"

NEW: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer’s husband has been barred from entering Labor Department HQ after two female staffers accused him of sexual assault inside the building, according to NYT. One alleged incident was captured on security cameras and is now part of a criminal investigation.

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

I know everybody is upset about the death of Twitter and the fact that no single place – not Bluesky, not X, not anything else – has emerged to fill the void, but complaining about it and taking it out by complaining on Bluesky about Bluesky is annoying. Build the community that you want.

Over 80% of 16 to 24-year-olds would vote to rejoin the EU, ITV poll finds

Why would you pig-headedly ignore the voice of the next generation? Why would you saddle them with debt, shrink the job market and limit their opportunities? It runs counter to everything politics and society should want for them. For all of us. They’re the future.

The surge in violence meted out by ICE absolutely should continue to be condemned, but I think a lot of people didn't realize or care that activists have been facing life-altering injury from cops for generations. "Law enforcement" has always been the violence. It ALL needs to stop.

I somehow got on the “Don’t vote because Dems have never done anything for anyone” algorithm and I want off.

That’s just too much stupid for anyone to have to read.

Trump is putting enormous pressure on Zelensky because Russia is losing the war. The Russian economy is crumbling and Putin has asked Trump to put pressure on Zelensky. Zelensky must remain strong and defiant. All he has to do is buy time. Both Trump and Putin are on the way out.

Biden would’ve been instantly impeached in a bipartisan vote if he put his face on the freakin’ Department of Justice building

Seems bad. Yet another in the long list of things (growing ever longer) that would have been a major months long scandal in any other administration.
