Just had Palantir’s comms person call me an ‘anti Palantir campaigner’ The classic 2026 populist move ‘I don’t like what you’ve said. You must be a campaigner against me’ Anyway read the pieces and judge for yourself….

🔴 For the past year @lucasamin.bsky.social and I have been investigating Palantir in the UK What we found was a company with unrivalled political access, selling a product many data experts in the NHS don’t use, and don’t rate Please read and share democracyforsale.substack.com/p/its-just-a...

Because it’s not getting reported on enough: Muslim fruit shop owner Ahmed al Ahmed, father of two, was the hero who bravely tackled one of the Bondi Beach shooters and took away his gun. He saved lives during a major terror attack. Say his name, and honor the lives of the victims of the shooters

#NZpol This will want investigating further, even if Luxon wants to try "excuse" it. Can’t be having MPs treat NZ’s money as open to pay for favoured projects or covering their arses.

NEW: Chris Bishop used housing money to fund a bridge in his electorate his own Govt had killed off. Officials were against the move and Labour say he shouldn’t have been anywhere near the decision. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

#nzpol Raise your voices loud Aotearoa New Zealand because this is definitely not OK. These people have suffered enough. They have already been put through far too much for what will be meager symbolic compensation. Some are so ill they're dying while they wait. This govt is utterly disgusting.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

I can't stress this enough. The country and the world is not being shown just how much pushback is happening. You have to share it when you encounter it. They all think we're taking this lying down and we are not.

Brandon - "Fietser"@americanfietser.bsky.social

American and International news is hiding the pushback. They want the world to think most of us are fine with what’s happening. Share what you see. Film it. Find it. Post it. Follow @50501movement.bsky.social and check their Reddit sub as well for the latest.
