When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946. In 2007, the US president was born in 1946. In 2017, the US president was born in 1946. And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

I was just watching some of the Bill and Hillary deposition footage and its really striking/disturbing how much the Clintons clearly come off younger and in better shape than either of our two recent presidents.

The long and the short of this. I get how MAGA worked in 2016, but only Epstein explains why all the tech bros coagulated around Trump in 2024. Epstein's money, his Silicon Valley/Russian-backed libertarian eugenicist ideology, survived his demise

1. This 2016 exchange between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel is so essential, really gets to the heart of Epstein's project. Epstein: brexit, just the beginning. Thiel: Of what? Epstein: return to tribalism... finding things on their way to collapse , was much easier than finding the next bargain

Today is the 6 year anniversary of the UK leaving the European Union. The conversation about repairing our relationship with Europe is growing louder, but it must not stop here. Join European Movement UK to build the strength we need to continue rebuilding our ties with Europe.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

The gun taken by the agent appears to match the general appearance of the firearm shared online by DHS, and which they said was Pretti’s. This agent’s back is turned from the scene with the gun in his hand when the first shot occurs.

Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

The federal government is gunning people down in the streets, lying about what happened and then preventing any independent investigation of the killings

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

I told the White House the state must lead the investigation. Let state investigators secure justice. As we process the scene, stay peaceful and give them space. The State has the personnel to keep people safe – federal agents must not obstruct our ability to do so.

Tom reposted

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Tom reposted

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

This isn’t America First—it’s America alone. People don’t realize the path Trump has us on. While he waits by the phone for Xi Jinping to “negotiate,” Xi’s out making moves—touring Asia and cutting deals with European leaders to make China less dependent on the U.S.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

President Trump did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the Constitution under the 22nd Amendment, saying in an exclusive interview with NBC News that there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was “not joking.”
