Zack Polanski will be interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg after the BBC received complaints from the public for the lack of coverage of the Green Party conference.

Trump’s hand was forced when Nethanyahu bombed Doha. This resulted in the Arab nations reconsidering their position vis-a-vis 🇺🇸. Not to mention Trump has plenty of business deals with the Arab states and a lot of money to be made. Then there was the very public apology that Bibi had to make to Qatar

Trump just announced a U.S. strike that killed six people on a boat “allegedly” carrying drugs near Venezuela. Another day, another flex of power with zero proof. How many more “drug boats” before this turns into a foreign policy disaster?

@zackpolanski.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk are providing a home for progressives who have felt politically homeless, despairing at the state of the country. Those looking for a positive, fair and hopeful future, the rapidly growing membership is testament to that.

Go Greens

A man so petty and small he can’t see the damage he’s doing to the country. Also someone should remind him he’s the president of the UNITED states of America !

Anti-Mamdani super PACs have joined forces to try to stop Zohran from becoming the next Mayor of NYC.

Oil industry heir and director of Chevron John Hess has donated $1 million alone. But all their money means nothing when the people are united.

Keep up the momentum for Mamdani 💪🏾

@zackpolanski.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk are providing a home for progressives who have felt politically homeless, despairing at the state of the country. Those looking for a positive, fair and hopeful future rather than one based on hate, anger, fear - everything the right have to offer.

Trump: "You wouldn't have a world domination by the dollar if I didn't win this election."

Since Trump returned to office, the share of global foreign exchange reserves held in US dollars has fallen, largely as a result of the dollar's fall in value due to Trump's economic chaos.

Democracy dies in darkness is not just a pithy phrase - as freedoms and rights are eroded, the pillars of institutions corrupted such that they collapse and the dark days of fascism take hold - democracy indeed dies.

That’s right! Thanks, Fox News!

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Last Sunday, @demiforillinois.bsky.social, @raygunsite.com and I hosted a No Kings protest sign-making party with the best problem:

So many people showed up, we ran out of table space.

This is what community care looks like.

On this he is right - this is a super bad pic - I would say more than usual 🤣🤣🤣

And yet when the climate crisis is evident and urgent, the doubling down on climate change denial is growing exponentially, aided and abetted by malign actors using social media to spread misinformation and worse conspiracy theories. Regardless - a reckoning is coming and we are ill prepared.

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

"Microplastics have been detected in the brains of dementia patients, and in arterial plaques from people with heart disease"

And the response of the plastics industry is......

....to massively ramp up plastic production

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

Thoughtful, funny and poignant.

One billionaire kleptocrat is encouraged to see his admirer Nigel Farage tweet that more very, very rich people are going to be giving large amounts of money to Reform.

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.
