It’s been a while since I last was in the US, but are tv sets in public places like airports and trainstations, even hotel lobbies still showing FOXNews?

DJT seems to have a way of “cancelling” Democratic administrations’ successful achievements only to repackage and reintroduce them with is own brand on them.

Chuck W supported Kamala! @cwbis.bsky.social · 1d

Even since before he became Senator, #MitchMConnell’s ambition was to push America to the ultraconservative right, and he brags about how he succeeded in his 2016 (!) memoirs, with DJT’s foreword (the subtitle in the photo is mine 😎)
I doubt even #SnitchMitch expected to end up in fullblown fascism…

Nearly all state funding for Missouri school vouchers used for religious schools • Missouri Independent

As state funding begins directly fueling Missouri's voucher program, a majority of students use the money for religious education.

Interesting reading: an UNRWA-report from 2011 looking forward to Gaza in 2020…

Israel had other ideas.

So, there really isn’t any Congressional Oversight anymore in the US? Can a president (lowercase intentional) really do as he pleases? The damage he’s doing to the country and the world is huge!

Don’t forget the Trump-administration vetoed all attemps in the UN to stop the Israeli aggression against Palestinians.

Earl Tego @earlt58.bsky.social · 26d

As long as America has the power to veto any progress made in the UN, attempts to block Israel’s genocide in Gaza are futile…

May be mega-/maga-farmers such as Bayer get involved.

Make that: most likely.

Fergie. Married into the royal family, divorced out of it. How is she even still a duchess?

Frankly it is quite despicable that MAGAts do NOT find it inappropriate…

Earl Tego @earlt58.bsky.social · 12d

And guess who’s going to buy all of that farmland (not to single out Bayer 😡).

Quite sure DJT and his cronies will profit from the shutdown, both monetarily and politically…

It’s increasingly clear that convicted Russian influencer Nathan Gill was a senior member of Farage’s entourage. (Banks and Wigmore were also in and out of the Russian embassy sharing FBI files, RT talking points, and discussing gold and diamond privatisation deals)

Nigel Farage. An insult to humanity.

That’s the message.

I'm glad Keir Starmer is finally stepping up the fight against Nigel Farage, and I hope this will mark the end of his government parroting Farage and copying his divisive politics.

Is FIFA boss Infantino?

I do not trust DJT and his administration at all, and hope FIFA does the right thing by pulling the World Cup from the US. Mexico and Canada can perfectly organize the tournament between them.

Keep participating national teams and their attending supporters safe!
