“When every conversation begins in suspicion, people stop listening altogether. That’s not politics — it’s paralysis.”

- Colin Sheridan calls out the fear mongering.

Ivan Yates doesn't value integrity because he has none

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

Meiselas: Trump says he’s focusing right now on laying off the Democratic agencies and government employees, whatever that means. Again, completely pathetic behavior, and in normal times, this would be impeachable and/or 25th Amendment territory.

NEWS: "Donald Trump is a pedophile who routinely raped young girls."

MAGA: "So boring."

NEWS: "Donald Trump is allowing Qatar to build an air force base in Idaho.”

MAGA: “This is IMMORAL! What an outrage!!! I will not stand for this wicked behavior!!!”

Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.

Imagine being mad you didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize while you’re busy stirring up Civil War in your own country.

Heather Humphfries made her stance clear today. Don´t criticise allies. As simple as that - even when they're complicit in genocide. Also would not comment on the full OTB.

A status quo rubber stamper.

That's enough for me. Catherine Connolly it is.

Keep the dirty tricks brigade out of the highest office in the country.

Aontu are shitting themselves that CC might win, giving courage to the strategic coalition of non-government parties, to continue, and win the next election.

The 100 year conservative duopoly ends.

“Voting isn’t marriage, it’s public transport. You’re not waiting for “the one” who’s absolutely perfect: you’re getting the bus, and if there isn’t one to your destination, you don’t not travel- you take the one going closest.”

Big piece in POLITICO asking about the independence of Ireland's process of appointing people to its Data Protection Commission. There is deep unease in Brussels about Ireland appointing a former Meta lobbyist as Meta's watchdog. Now questions about who was involved.

Genocide just politics , a mere gambit in a rational political game is a pretty sick way of normalizing the ‘crime of all crimes’. #Israel will continue to be covered by #US #UK #Ireland media as a ‘normal’ country where genocide in #gaza #palestine is a mere political gambit. Israel is not normal

We got solar panels installed about a month ago, and we’re running at about 75% energy independence. In autumn. In Ireland. This is not some unsolvable quantum physics problem for god’s sake 🤦

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

I wonder which uncool, unappreciated, obscure artist Jon Fasman will uncover next. Prince? Bowie? Nirvana?

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit
