For just £2 you could feed a stray. We hold stray feed drives across Lahore but recently have been struggling due to lack of funds. Just £2 will feed a hungry dog like this poor soul who was waiting for our team 😪. PayPal: paypal.me/twsociety

You might see videos about Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside that dehumanize residents calling them "zombies," shaming the poor, and painting Canada in need of more Conservative ideology as a false solution. But here’s the side right-wing media won’t show. #cdnpoli

NO. It's fundamentally inappropriate for the @dscc.bsky.social to form a fundraising committee with Janet Mills. What happened to staying OUT of the primaries?

NEW: Pentagon officials are forcing staff to watch Pete Hegseth's "Warrior" speech he forced generals to listen to.

Officials are even "testing" staff to see if they watched — and are threatening consequences if they lie about watching it or if they mock it, sources tell @swin24.bsky.social and I.

The Pentagon Is Ordering Staff to Watch Hegseth’s ‘MAGA Garbage’ Speech… Or Else

Defense Department sources tell Zeteo that staff 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.

The Speaker of the House thinks a naked bike ride is terrorism.
