Tommy Robinson police stop unlawful, court hears. Headline on BBC News web site. This is wholly misleading. It was Robinson's lawyer who said the stop was unlawful, not the court. The court will rule on the case on 4th November.

Israel is using the failure to return the bodies of hostages as a pretext to violate the ceasefire themselves, but as Nour Odeh points out, the ceasefire agreement did not contain a timeline for the handing over of the bodies & Israel already knew it might take weeks or months.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

DoD sources tell Zeteo that staff there have been warned that if they don’t watch or read the speech, or if they speak negatively of it, they could face severe consequences.

Kinnock is one of the finest proponents of progressive thought in this country and the best prime minister we never had.

Robert Saunders @robertsaunders.bsky.social · 16h

In 2010, an interviewer told Neil Kinnock that the Labour Party "never used to understand aspiration".

Kinnock gave an absolutely brilliant answer that should be learned by heart by every Labour MP. (0.42 to 1.22)

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Trump’s everlasting peace in the Middle East held for 24 hours, so now he has to defend Hamas killing people to keep his Nobel Prize hopes alive.

I can’t wait to find out if the deal Trump gave to the Hamas leaders was as good as the one he gave to the Taliban.

Bullshit baffles brains, works brilliantly on MAGA.

Educated folk see through the bullshit and ask questions.

You don't need to give a long-winded answer to a simple evidence based question.

This is a great example of why most Dems fail to communicate & appear condescending. Grow a spine!

“What’s the benefit for 🇺🇸 in sending $20 BILLION to Argentina?”🤔

Trump says he just really likes their philosophy and will only send the $20 Billion if his pal Milei wins.

Imagine not being able to see this blatant corruption for what it is. (While our farmers struggle)

Since trump was placed in our White House, racist attacks by his masked ICE thugs, but also by his now emboldened, openly racist followers nationwide have increased.

Very recently, a Latino US citizen family were agressed for speaking Spanish between them.
