UK will not be joining Trump’s ‘board of peace’ for now, citing Putin’s invitation, Yvette Cooper says – UK politics live
UK will not be joining Trump’s ‘board of peace’ for now, citing Putin’s invitation, Yvette Cooper says – UK politics live
‘We do also have concerns about President Putin being part of something which is talking about peace,’ the foreign secretary said
Good morning. In his Guardian article published on Tuesday, Gordon Brown, the former PM, said:
Years from now the history books will tell us that [Donald] Trump could have declared a quick victory in negotiations over Greenland – accepting the Danish offer of virtually unlimited military bases and access to Greenland’s 25 critical minerals.
There’s a huge amount of work to do we won’t be one of the signatories today, because this is about a legal treaty that raises much broader issues, and we do also have concerns about President Putin being part of something which is talking about peace, when we have still not seen any signs from Putin that there will be a commitment to peace in Ukraine.
And to be honest, that is also what we should be talking about. Continue reading...

Even after Trump is gone, the world will remember that he threatened to forcibly seize the territory of a peaceful democratic ally, and our institutions failed to immediately remove him. That makes US dangerously unreliable, not just one senile gangster.
His not being impeached by the end of the business day as a result of this threat is as much a problem as the threat itself. It’s not just Trump that the world has to worry about, it’s a GOP that supports him and Democrats who suck their thumbs and refuse to even discuss pushing to remove him

I grew up hearing stories from my father about how folks abducted by Franco’s secret police would routinely “escape” to the roof of police HQ and “commit suicide.” The obviousness of the lie was itself an intimidation tactic.
"agents told hospital staff that Castaneda Mondragon ... 'purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.'”
A Minnesota man received a life-threatening injury while in ICE custody. It's not clear how he got injured because his memory and ability to communicate are so severely impaired. Agents said "he got his shit rocked." Wild story from @katrinapross.bsky.social sahanjournal.com/health/ice-d...

Fuck no they won’t be there for us, you sack of shit. Not now. Now that you sabotaged Ukraine and shit on our allies and became besties with the world’s dictators. Why would they? Why would they ever trust us again? My head is going to explode.
Trump on NATO:
"The problem with NATO is that we'll be there for them 100% but I'm not sure that they'd be there for us, if we gave them the call".
We did get the call on 9/11. 26 NATO members sent troops to defend the US. Hundreds died doing so. It was the only time Article 5 has been activated.

If you requested cancellation, hang in there. Maybe they're slow because so many people are canceling. 🤷

Pat Gelsinger used to do this at VMware, too. So that checks out.
There are few things Trump likes more than to have a Big Stack of Paper™ that he insists proves he is right.

Let’s be clear - Republicans and the voters that put them in office are intentionally destroying the country and turning the world against it. Even with as insane as Trump is, he could be stopped if his party had a spine.
Never let them forget. Never a moment of peace. Not even over family dinner.

From a 2022 McKinsey & Company report titled "Value creation in the metaverse: The real business of the virtual world," we were told the metaverse could generate "up to $5 trillion in impact by 2030."
Nearly half way to 2030 and the metaverse's actual total is negative hundreds of billions.

This is like that scene in Inglorious Basterds where Hans Landa casually drinks a glass of milk in the guy's house before killing all of the Jewish refugees he's hiding. These people are evil, awful human beings.

Today at dinner my 3 year old asked "Dad, what can we do to help ICE? How can we make sure all non-Americans are sent back to their real homes?"
I threw the child in the garbage. It was clearly broken beyond repair. What the hell.

Seriously this is the worst gumbo recipe I’ve ever seen. DM me if you want that real real. This fucking thing doesn’t even call for making a roux. I don’t make the rules but I will enforce them.
Last week, Betty Crocker came in with Chicken Gumbo; Fannie Farmer wants you to try hers today. Gumbo dates back to the 1700s but didn't become widely popular in the US until the 1970-80s. Fannie Farmer was a home cook ahead of her time. What do you think of this Gumbo? 🍽️ 🍜 #FoodSky #RecipeOfTheDay
