people are aware that america isn't even really a democracy, right?
its a republic. we "elect" a handful of representatives, and those rich, corrupt individuals make all of our decisions for us
we don't vote on anything meaningful, only what they allow us to. that's not a democratic government.
Thank you he came back got married and had me and my brother. Lived to 74yrs
Elon Musk is now 3x richer than the second richest person on the planet.
He's *this close* to becoming a trillionaire.
Tesla paid $0 in federal income taxes last year.
And he himself got a massive tax break from Trump last summer.
This is out of control.
Tax the rich.
80,000 r@pes a year (reported) in the UK.
The conviction rate?
1.6%.
This is appalling.
Nigel Farage urged to apologise for calling post-Dunblane handgun ban 'ludicrous'

My dad was a Japanese prisoner of war and building the Burma railroad. Americans were forever bombing them. He really hated them
Aye, Glasgow steps up.
I'd say this is honestly pretty emblematic of all of Scotland.
The Netherlands and Iceland have just joined the Genocide case at the ICJ in the Hague with interventions against Israel.
This is an important development.
If you think the global leadership didn't know this would happen, you're naive.
Two known war criminals, with warrants for their arrests, have now expanded their wars.
They all knew.
They did nothing to prevent this.
The American government is the worst of it, as far as complicity.
Shameful.
The most disgusting thing about this is the fuel you are putting in your car today was bought by the supply companies months ago.
This is pure profiteering and nothing else.
Asda in Dunfermline was 158p for diesel last night. First time I’ve actually been glad we made the swap to electric.
Labour, desperate to get back in to Glasgow City Council again.
Please remember the humongous salaries they paid to their pals when last in charge
Well, the attack on Iran will end up killing thousands and raise gas prices while strengthening Russia, but at least it won't distract from the fact that the President of the United States raped children. Jesus Christ, we are in hell.
Fuck Face drops bombs on schools because raping and torturing children isn't enough for him. #Epstein
When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.
DOJ confirmed that 47,635 Epstein files have been removed.
That’s ANOTHER 47,635 reasons why we need ACCOUNTABILITY!
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
The King is supposed to be visiting the USA *next month*. This is the definition of a diplomatic nightmare. In all seriousness, I would urge him to pull a sickie.
RAF Menwith Hill, RAF Mildenhall, RAF Lakenheath, RAF Fairford etc
It's a lie. They are run and controlled by US Air Force
It should be USAF Menwith Hill, USAF Mildenhall, USAF Lakenheath, USAF Fairford etc
Those were the days when America had a decent President
I think we can repay that debt by rising up at least 13 million strong across the nation and taking down Trump once and for all.

This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.
Cashing in on the worst public health crisis in a century should disbar people from public life permanently.

Much better idea
The only possible "positive" outcome for the world would be the fall of Trump.
Us westerners really have to learn to clean at home before going to spread our "morals".
You have fucking concentration camps in your country !
I'd rather be a progressive nationalist who wants a better life for all, than a bought corruptionist like Streeting who just wants more personal wealth and power at any cost to society.
There's a very useful potential role for AI to help our NHS, but not by outsourcing that role to right wing American organisations with strategic links to Israeli military, as Labour is doing in England.
Streeting is an idiot, take it from me
