Buried inside the Big Beautiful Bill is a time bomb...one that detonates the balance of power. You weren’t supposed to read this clause. That’s why I did.

A single section hidden deep in the bill quietly neuters the courts. It’s that serious.🔥👇

Proud to be living here. Feliz dia de España.

In the UK we have Keir -island of strangers- Starmer, whose government is driving right wing anti immigrant and asylum seeker policies

In Spain, Pedro Sánchez is not only celebrating diversity, they're embracing and speaking positively about immigrants

Listened to the Meidas touch from the get go. Heartened to see how much they’re growing. Independent media has never been more important. Living in Europe we need reliable reporting from the US.

‘We’re fighting for you!’ Podcaster Ben Meiselas on taking on the Maga media – and winning the ratings battle

His channel, MeidasTouch, puts out 15 videos a day exposing Republican failings – and it is getting bigger audiences than Joe Rogan’s. Is this the champion the American left has been waiting for?

I live in a small town in southern Spain... its really small... but today, our small town came together to speak up for Palestine and against the Israeli Government's genocide of the Palestinian people.
There were about 150 people, not many, but a fair proportion of our population.

I am not hearing about this on any major news channels - at least not headlining. im having to actively search for news about this.

So Qatar gets NATO Article 5 level protection, but Ukraine does not? This is raw corruption in action.

A screenshot of an X post by Ron Filipkowski (@RonFilipkow
..., 11h ago) stating: "This is pretty unbelievable. Qatar giving Trump that jet is really paying off for them in a big way." The post includes a quoted X post by Barak Ravid (@BarakRavid
) with an auto-translated Grok Show original message: "As part of the initiative to end the war in Gaza and as compensation to Qatar for the Israeli attack in Doha, President Trump signed on Monday a presidential order that dramatically upgrades the U.S. commitment to Qatar's security. This is an unprecedented security agreement between the U.S. and an Arab country. According to the presidential order, published today, 'The United States will regard any armed attack on the territory, sovereignty, or vital infrastructure of the State of Qatar as a threat to the peace and security of the United States.' The order further states: 'In the event of such an attack, the United States will take all appropriate and lawful measures – including diplomatic, economic, and if necessary, military measures – in order to defend the interests of the United States and the State of Qatar and to restore peace and stability.'"

It would be terribly unfortunate if this got shared absolutely everywhere.

1/ This speech made by Farage in September 2014, after Russia's first invasion of Ukraine, is a stream of Russian propaganda lies that could have come from Lavrov's mouth.

What it feels like monitoring anti-vax Facebook groups for 6 years.

(I didn't think I would need to point out that this is a fake post from a fake group and written entirely by me, but my previous posting of this proved that assumption wrong...)

Netanyahu has said that Donald Trump has given him the go ahead to takeover Gaza and build his Trump hotel.

The only thing that will stop it is the rest of the world recognising Palestine as a State before it happens.
