So here’s my take on the WSJ lawsuit:Murdoch has always been pro-Trump - esp Fox.

WSJ will settle out of court. Whilst everyone is wetting themselves saying “oooh, I can’t wait for discovery” nothing will ever be disclosed, and Murdoch gives a 9 - 10 figures $ to Trump that’s not donation.

The Schumer argument is correct insofar as it’s a choice between terrible and awful, but when has kicking the can down the road ever worked? Whilst a Government shutdown would theoretically shut down DOGE too, I fear that they could do irreparable damage during a shutdown with even less oversight.

Illegally firing government workers in the name of efficiency, only to have to rehire them again when it had been dragged through the courts, has to be the least efficient thing ever.

Hey @marina-purkiss.bsky.social, my humble recommendation for tweet of the week from a USA perspective.
For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme."

Un-fucking-real.

MAGAts “you can’t take away our guns - it’s in the Constitution”

Also MAGAts “End birthright citizenship and let Trump run for a third term”

Every moderate GOP politician at every level should be the sand in the gears of the Trump/Musk program. If they don’t they are sending out a message that they’re ready to serve in the new fascist regime.

Is there still an ICJ warrant for Netanyahu’s arrest? If so why was he not arrested when he landed in the USA?

Greta Thunberg is seen in a photo with an octopus toy, and gets called antisemitic - “…the octopus is a well known antisemitic symbol” . Musk does a nazi salute - “that wasn’t a nazi salute, Elon is a good guy”

I hate these bastards and the media who peddle their lies.

Farage’s refusal to condemn Musk’s outrageous statements shows total unfitness for public office. But @bbclaurak.bsky.social fails to hold him to account & allows whole interview to be on his terms. No focus on Reform’s divisive policies & no effective challenge to his dangerous insinuations

The same Republicans who whined about former California AG & United States Senator Kamala Harris being an “unqualified DEI hire”, are totally fine with Trump picking his friends, family, Fox hosts, tv doctors and top donors for advisors, Ambassadorships, Department heads and Cabinet posts.

Sounds like a professional hypocrite to me! “Do as I say, not as I do”. I DONT want him as my President and in my heart, he is not. He can never represent even a fraction of what I stand for and want in a country and in life. #USDemocracy #Resist #BlueCrew

If we released a list of all the companies that supported Trump and Project 2025 during the election, would you consider boycotting them all?

Follow us and repost if you would. 💪

Kind of wild how a load of people think they are going to get a general election because they signed an online petition and Starmer isn't as popular at the moment as he was on day 1.
It wasn't that long ago that this happened 👇

I’m diligently recycling everything I can, whilst Trump is getting ready to remove USA from the Paris Agreement, and I feel like I’m just pissing in the wind. Depressing.
