The Irish government aiding this is fucking unconscionable. Unforgiveable. History will remember this as Nazi collaboration, because that's what it is
Next, this Journey ICE flight that landed in Tel Aviv on Jan. 21 held eight Palestinians, who were transferred to the West Bank and released, according to @haaretzcom.bsky.social.

They actually did it. They bombed the shit out of Gaza and murdered thousands and thousands of Palestinians in order to build "Gaza Trump Riviera". I am just sick. I hate Trump and Netanyahu more than words can tell.
It gets worse. Elon Musk gets his slice of Gaza.

Now we'll get politicians telling us, on the record, that 23,000 sexualised images of kids, and 1.8 million sexualised images of women, is not a big enough reason to justify stepping away from X.
In our conservative estimate, 41 percent of Grok’s images — or 1.8 million — were sexualized depictions of women. Separately, CCDH analyzed how many were sexualized images across genders and ages. Their findings: an estimated 3 million images, including more than 23,000 of children.

Tried finding this clip but just kept finding articles about how Darina Allen's husband Tim was convicted for chiId p0rn and managed to buy his way out of a jail sentence and is still involved with the school. Weird.
Ballymaloe founder Darina Allen has blasted the Hot School Meals programme as “not fit for purpose” during an appearance before TDs this morning.

But Allen received pushback from some who pointed to children getting reliable meals thanks to the policy.

In my opinion Citizens Assemblies were hoisted on us as a way for the government to delay politically difficult positions. They didnt expect them to be as effective as they were and in a panic they have undermined them ever since the 8 Amendment one. I want CAs with teeth. #spéirgorm
this is a hugely important point. despite the success of previous Citizens' Assemblies (mixed success to be fair) there is no assembly currently in progress, no news of any plans for one, and no mention of the concept at all in last year's Programme for Government
In contrast to New York's experiment in mass engagement, Ireland's commitment to citizens' assemblies is waning, according to Dr Seána Glennon.
