Do NOT follow me if you're an admirer of Starmer, von der Leyen, Scholz, Biden, and/or Harris. They all support a GENOCIDAL Israel... and ALL helped pave the way for Trump 2.0

If you say "At least they're not as bad as Tories!", " #BlueCrew", or "Blue Wave"... FUCK OFF! You're part of the problem.

As a citizen of an allied-nation that the CIA "regime-changed" back in the '70s because we voted in a Socialist, I can assure you all that this is 100% the America that we all know.

Israel Shutdown a Children’s theatre Performance of "Dreams Under the Olive Tree” in Jerusalem, last night

It was so brutal that one child got so scared he vomited.

Imagine how WEAK your government has to be to FEAR and SHUTDOWN a children’s play.

Smiling photo shoot with Trump;
deciding to keep Jessica Tisch, a vicious Zionist, as NYC's police commissioner;
endorsing Jeffries.

Is @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social yet another Dem opportunist, campaigning as Progressive, then backing status quo SHIT?

Like @sanders.senate.gov or @aoc.bsky.social?

The overlooked issue of domestic violence against elderly women
The overlooked issue of domestic violence against elderly women
Among all women killed by their partners in France in 2024, 26% were over the age of 70, a figure that is on the rise. Yet, the murders of these women and the possible abuse that preceded them are poorly documented.

The UK's grotesque anti-terrorism law saga continues.
This time about 20 people charged with terrorism for wearing t-shirt with a statement of support the non-violent pro-Palestine group Palestine Action.
The protesters have been offered a warning instead of trial, but they refused.
Palestine Action Scotland set to burn their warning letters tomorrow

The great thing about this debate is that Zack comes armed with facts and figures whilst the Labour MP and the Tory only have the "it won't work" argument, whilst continuing to support a system that hasn't worked for over 40 years.

Labour are dead

Debate today with a Labour MP on the economy.

Also with a former advisor to George Osborne.

Very striking how much Labour & the Tories agree on our economic system.

Time for change. Let's make hope normal again. Enjoy! 🙌🏼👇🏼

@rosiewrightingmp.bsky.social REPEATEDLY accused @zackpolanski.bsky.social of lying to the British public, giving it "false hope".

1) When Zack asked her to give a single example of his lying, she just waffled.

2) Why doesn't Wrighting complain about PROVEN porkers Starmer told to win leadership?!

A few weeks ago (while Leigh was temporarily suspended), I was bsky-searching for her fave ("Creator has allowed") meme, but it - without ALT text - was impossible to find. (I also searched internet images.)

So I created a new one for her, using her bsky avatar👇

Anyone who shows up at a war criminal / mass murderer's funeral to honor him & not to spit on his grave is telling you "I honor his crimes, as well."

Dems like the Bidens, Harris, Gore, & Schiff tell us "We may have been on opposite sides politically..."
🙄
But they're NOT: they, too, are complicit.
Bush, Gore, Biden, Harris, Pence, Quayle, Murkowski, Barrasso, Lummis, Graham, Schiff, Thune, etc...

"If you want to have a REALLY GOOD TIME at a party, just point a camera at fellow party attendees & order Grok to come up with ever nastier, more tasteless insults to embarrass them! TEE HEE HEE!"

This is an EIGHT-YEAR-OLD's idea of "a REALLY GOOD TIME at a party"!

She writes "The state is a gentler tool for this than guillotines".

On the other hand, there's a lot to be said for guillotines.

1 People are being labelled "rude (account)" for vigorously protesting a fucking GENOCIDE. This is biased, POLITICAL censorship.

Aside from @reprashida.govpeeps.us, please name me any other heroes currently in Congress.

Warning: anyone who waited 18 months (until majority opinion was agreed on this) to call what's happening in Palestine a genocide (and this includes AOC & Bernie) is disbarred from the title "hero".

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:
