Why are sitting members of Parliament disabling their comment sections? That talking at people, we’re all tired of that and your disingenuous activism while you hold this government up at every turn.
Today, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, I called on all of my parliamentary colleagues to commit to defending the right of every person in this country and around the world to live free from violence. Let us choose courage over convenience. Let us act.

Over a quarter of Trump's proposed $1T military budget would go to just four companies who have spent $103B in taxpayer dollars on stock buybacks and dividends over the last decade.

He wants to use your money to make the military-industrial complex even richer.

If you followed corporate media on the turkey pardon you missed Trump calling JB Pritzker a 'fat slob' multiple times, something about Sleepy Joe and the autopen and some ridiculous statements about crime in DC and Memphis. The 💩🤡 has gone around the bend and media refuses to show it. 🙄

This should be a major scandal. The Blaze falsely reported that a former U.S. Capitol Police officer was the Jan. 6th pipe bomber. But it wasn’t just another miss by conservative media promoting conspiracies.

Someone in US intel - at ODNI - was promoting it:

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

The poll reveals how far to the zionist right the entire country has moved.

62% of Jewish Israelis say a militant should be killed even if they pose no threat. 55% support heavy fire on Palestinian population centers after rocket attacks. Those findings come from a new Israel Democracy Institute poll of 600 Jewish Israelis. Here’s what else it found:

13k comments on one tweet is a massive payout. All of the tweets follow a certain formula, so the content is likely automated using AI technology (e.g., AI generated images and text). Basically running it as a money printing machine. But for those in the US, it translates to low simmering rage.

All this talk about “reclassifying” what counts as a profession is a distraction from the real trend..women-dominated fields like nursing, teaching, social work, counseling, PA programs, physical therapy, are losing funding, while male-dominated sectors keep the capital flowing.

Sex trafficking on Meta platforms was both difficult to report and widely tolerated. Instagram’s former head of safety testified that when she joined Meta in 2020 she was shocked to learn the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”

If the 28-point plan came from Russia and somehow ended up in the hands of U.S. lawmakers, then we don’t have a “leak” problem we have a foreign influence problem. And anyone downplaying that should not be anywhere near national security decisions.

Periodic reminder that the original head of Hillsdale College divorced his first wife to marry his mistress, an employee.

While married to wife #2 he was alleged to have had an affair with his own son’s wife who committed suicide on campus.

They’d prefer you not know all that though.

Well, well, well....

Let's think about why the Russians leaked it and why Trump is pushing for it at this particular moment. Could they think his days in the White House are numbered and they need to grab whatever they can?

Oops. the irony there being that it was the most useful tool Twitter had deployed in years! And because it was useful for users, it was therefore bad for the oligarchy and the tyrants. Maybe @bsky.app @jay.bsky.team could implement something like that, that identifies WHERE an account is based?

Grand opening, grand closing.

X quietly disabled a new feature that showed which country an account was posting from when it revealed that lots of popular right wing MAGA accounts were being run from foreign countries like India and Nigeria.
