Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."

Poor quality newpaper photo of what is captioned as a "massive" 16-ton British tank (Vickers Medium Mk.III) which slipped off the road on the Swindon Road, Wiltshire 22/9/1934. One local scamp appears to be souvenier hunting. VRM MT9708

Hi @zackpolanski.bsky.social
I am thinking about joining the Green Party.

I read your website and saw the page mentioning the PSS, Core Values, and Philosophical Basis. But the links don't work.

I emailed party HQ on 10 Sep and was sent the PB but I still can't get hold of the PSS nor the CV.

Innovation is entirely neutral.

#OTD 1915 The #machineguncorps was formed. Only in existence until 1922, it consolidated machine gunnery from across the army and developed organisation, training and doctrine that resonates still today.

Happy 110th birthday to the Machine Gun Corps, founded on 14th October 1915. The MGC was initially formed with three branches: Infantry, Cavalry, and Motors. The Heavy Section would join them in 1916.
