JD Vance Has Frosty, 2-Word Response When Asked About Apology To Alex Pretti's Family “For what?” the vice president replied when asked if he'd be apologizing to Pretti's family.

Vance is a prick that defies description. My mother said this is the main reason she hopes Trump doesn't die while in office. I still hope he croaks off soon.

Yeah, all those anti-semitic / racist remarks, the lying about buying a house, the misogyny, the terrible vetting, the multiple jobs, the neglecting your constituency…

But, somehow, Jeff Bezos had $75 million to squander/bribe for his useless, money-losing Melania vanity movie. Who needs accurate, smart reporting when you can have shameless, stupid propaganda?

There’s a v cynical media and political blindspot in the Epstein shitshow. A feeding frenzy to get rid of Starmer while red-carpeting Farage into No10. Who is named in the files. As is Candy, Reform’s treasurer. With Bannon. And Brexit.
Don’t cry about abuses of power and then do nothing about him.

😕

Take my heart, take my hand
On this ground where we stand
With the last of the land, in a gloaming

Two Reform MPs accidentally vote to scrap two-child benefit limit Ex-Tory MPs Suella Braverman and Robert Jenrick walked through the wrong voting lobby with Labour MPs to scrap the two-child benefit limit in the Commons on Tuesday evening

You just couldn’t make it up

Palestine Action protesters not guilty of defence firm burglary The group are cleared of aggravated burglary over the alleged raid at an Elbit Systems warehouse.

Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

Two-part thread...

“A soulless villain” who needs to be held accountable.

Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."?

Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.

What I find amusing about the Express' cinematic universe is that the UK is simultaneously free and thriving thanks to Brexit and poor and oppressed thanks to the current government. This dichotomy is also reflected in Mail/Telegraph etc but its at its most acute in the Express.

More integrity in his little finger than his detractors have displayed in entire careers.

A photo of Noah Feldman beside A quite with the ABC News logo “If we cannot impeach a president who abuses his office fir his personal advantage, we no longer live in a democracy — we live in a monarchy, or we live under a dictator.@ Noah Feldman, Harvard Law School

A mighty spark to keep him there
Triggered to power wired to pain
Direct inject pleasure
When the going gets rough
Don't believe in God and all that stuff

The house is now 218 R to 214 D.

Each Republican member if they had balls would be more powerful than any Senator. But they have to have balls to say no to trump.

But they are ball-less or ball free

It is disgusting how Pamela Jo Bondi's Department of Justice works overtime to protect the perpetrators in Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia enterprise but has no interest in protecting the victims.

Oh.

This latest piece of corrupt fuckery from Reform was tucked away on pages 1 & 4 of the Sunday Times. So, while media rightly rages about the murky Epstein network, it stays wrongly quiet on the murky money networks that are trashing our democracies right now. Do we wait until the fraud is in No10?

Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people.
 
Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech.
 
They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

Paging William of Ockham…

This is just a snippet of a superb @zackpolanski.bsky.social interview.

Laura’s tired gotcha attempts went nowhere, while Polanski raised the bar with every answer.

We’ve waited a long time for a political leader with empathy, honesty, and clarity.

She asked Zack if being against genocide wasn't divisive.
Yes, really. He handled it *beautifully*, naturally.
Does my heart good, every time.

February 1st/2nd – St. Bride’s Day/Candle Mass A celebration of Brigid, the Celtic goddess of spring, fertility and dawn, in her Christianised form. A raft of traditions have gravitated to this day. Along the coast, most sailors will not set upon it for fear of the voyage ending in disaster, while in the Shire of Strangers, at night children will go from house-to-house carrying candles and knocking on the door in hope of sweets. Some folklore marks it as the day when serpents of all forms wake from winter hibernation while in both churches and homes, sacred flames are lit, but only by women or girls. Sacred wells in the county associated with St. Bride or other female saints are also dressed at this time.

The folk rituals of today and tomorrow in Hookland. #Imbolc #Candlemas

I bet he’s sweating now.

Yeah hey JD remember that? What ever happened with that?

Donald Trump is a pedophile.

As a new anniversary of Brexit arrives, here's a reminder of the chillingly methodical moment when the UK flag was removed from the EU Council building in Brussels. Since then, not a single Brexit promise has come true – and the majority of us now want that flag put back again.
#RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺🕊

The Express… and Farage… want Brexit to be even worse than this…

Even more cost. More losses. More red tape. More queues. More businesses failing. Less tax revenue. Less investment. Less protection. Fewer rights. Less security.

But more white.
Their racism ruins us.
