Virginia Giuffre's family: "The content of these transcripts is in direct contradiction with felon Ghislaine Maxwell's conviction for child sex trafficking. During DAG Todd Blanche's bizarre interview, she is never challenged about her court-proven lies, providing her a platform to rewrite history."

I understand but it's a powerful piece anyways. It's not trying to excuse himself but puts this dark aspect of himself out there. I would like to believe that it is a real recognition of where he finds himself now in the public eye.

The latest series of Sandman #Netflix is a strong piece of contemporary autobiography by #neilgaiman . I receive this as a sincere mea culpe and insightful of the shades of dark and redemption.

Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist. He who would gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness, but must explore if it be goodness. Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

I think the States has been here for a long time. The faults in your form of democratic project has shown that true democratic power can be usurped. To have a pillar of the constitution such as SCOTUS hijacked and beyond repair shows this. #generalstrikenow

European leaders need to understand that a confrontation with Trump's regime (not the American people) is inevitable and their stance on soft diplomacy has and will fail. Trump has clearly aligned himself with Russia. Trump wants EU as a subordinate. Not acceptable. #keirstarmer

It’s clear that Trump sides with authoritarian Putin. People rise up and defend democracy.

"Zero Day" on Netflix has a direct parallel with Trump's DOGE. A coup organised from within.

When do we get to the point when we realise that the old remedies are not working and we then decide that a wide demonstration of resistance needs to be made.
