Trump’s Brown/Black Shirts…
ICE is no longer an immigration enforcement agency. It has become Trump’s domestic army.
If my “conservative” colleagues truly believe in small government, they should join us in demanding an end to masked federal agents terrorizing communities across this country.

Party that doesn’t have a leader, candidates or policies for Wales says it’s going to put Wales first.
Whilst lying that immigration is a devolved issue.
Immigration is not devolved, the Welsh Government has zero say on UK immigration policy.
Reform, Tories & Labour lying constantly at the mo.

I just drove past an abandoned car, with the doors open. (wrong side of highway, others had already stopped.)
This is Minnesota. No one for any reason intentionally leaves their car on the side of the road w/the doors open in January

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.
Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

So in Britain, we have a royal who has been stripped of all his titles for his involvement with Epstein, and a diplomat who has been fired, with the possibility that more may follow. In the US, there is no attempt even to mildly reprimand the most powerful man in the world, never mind remove him.

It’s a tough time to be an electric car enthusiast in the U.S.
Tesla is imploding, Lucid & Rivian are struggling to sell cars, traditional automakers have scaled back plans and we’ve imposed tariffs on the most competitive EVs in the world; Chinese EVs.
We glimpsed the future and then lost it..

How on earth did this uncouth buffoon ever make it to the White House? More baffling, how on earth is he still allowed to continue wrecking the country; economically, socially and politically?

I think I’m going to pop up the road for a ride on the UK’s first fully battery-powered train. A repurposed old District Line Class 230 debuting today on the West Ealing to Greenford branch line. Just read about it in the excellent @londoncentric.media & was deeply troubled by my level of interest.
