Dear European Leaders—don’t let 🍊 bully Ukraine into giving up their land. Stand up to him—someone has to and now is the time. The U.S. is no longer a global leader on anything—fill that void.
Also, BBC—do not pay that man even 1p. Say no. Stick with your apology & tell him to move along.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Whoa—Dick Cheney died. (Once again, BBC news app pop-up for the win on breaking US news.).

I’ve recently begun watching Sky News in the mornings while getting ready (good global news), and am fascinated by the live Parliament coverage. Since it seems the U.S. government model is broken, maybe we could try this? Just a thought…

I’d just like to point out that pretty much ANYONE can be a Nobel Peace Prize nominee—it doesn’t really mean much. “a person or organization must be nominated by an eligible individual, such as a head of state, university professor, past Nobel laureate, or a member of the Norwegian Nobel Committee.”

So…what do we think 🍊’s excuses will be when he doesn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize? It’s rigged? It’s a meaningless award anyway? The people who vote are all libs who hate him?
I want to know what you think he’ll blame! ⬇️

Look—the Epstein files are out there. People HAVE to have them. Maybe not one person, in totality—but put enough of them together, and it’d be close. Surely there is some way for a foreign government to get the docs and disseminate them to the world. It must be done—no time to waste.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

These military leaders need to stand up and walk out of the room. This speech is disgusting.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

He’s never heard of Alan Turing, has he?
The way he paused while reading his name in his speech tells me he has ZERO idea who he was. And PM Starmer doing his best to sit there expressionless so as not to offend the Orange One.

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Just so’s we’re all clear, almost 3/4 of everything we buy from Europe is now 15% more expensive.

Someone explain it to me: corn syrup is made from US corn, yes? Would Coke not need to import cane sugar if they changed their entire production? (That’s a lot of sugar!) I assume US corn farmers will be pissed, and Coke will $ more due to import tariffs on the sugar? This won’t happen.
