Belarus literally hi-jacked an international flight so they could send abducted dissidents to the gulag.
It will be Russia next. Trump knows he has little time left.

We should absolutely give Ukraine all the frozen Russian funds. And not as a loan. We’ve done over a decade of soft-balling Putin’s aggression and it only makes him more confident he can get away with the next outrage. Hit him back, hard. It’s the only language he understands.

And which government behaviour adviser Tom Bennett publicly lambasted the journalist for revealing at the time, because why even pause for a second to consider the actual accusations themselves when you can just try and machine-gun the messenger

I never thought I’d feel glad my parents have both passed away. But I am genuinely relieved that they did not live to see that vile animal repeatedly defiling the NATO alliance they served. I hope his imaginary bone spurs cause him to fall into a chasm so deep nobody bothers to retrieve the remains.

The Mossbourne Academies Safeguarding report shows strict behaviour policies harmed children. And they wonder why children with SEND in mainstream are traumatised & why parents opt for specialist provision. This must be central to the Schools White Paper

Read the Mossbourne safeguarding review last night. Having CPTSD, a lot deeply upset me. But one of the most disturbing was the absolute conviction by a majority of parents ‘if my child gets good GCSEs it does not matter that your child’s therapist says they will never be able to return to school.’

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.
The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.
"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"
Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue."

Farage is using all the same defence tactics as your average rapist, only on victims of racial abuse:

New asylum policies making homeless refugees “targets for the far right”
Labour’s abrupt return to the 28-day move-on period is pushing vulnerable people into rough sleeping and exposing them to fraud and abuse.

Compilations of 15 second Sora videos posted on accounts like this are already doing big numbers, along with Sora generated rage bait. Legislation should require AI detection tools to be an integral part of the posting process, and tag likely AI generated posts and lower their algorithmic ranking.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
