For every one of the 276 days since starting your
2nd Term #PUTIN bombs kids in kindergartens
& destroys swathes of #Ukraine with more than
41,000 Attack Drones. Your failure to deliver
the promises you made to end the war leaves
you with #BloodOnYourHands

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.

So, let’s get to it. linktr.ee/cadem

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

🇵🇱🇺🇦 PM Tusk: After President Zelenskyy’s talks yesterday in the White House and with European leaders, one thing is absolutely clear: Europe’s solidarity with Ukraine against Russia’s aggression is today more important than ever before.

Rhetoric like this from the White House has to stop before it leads to more violence.
Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

Trump’s summit with Putin in Alaska was supposed to open a path to peace in Ukraine, but instead, it turned into a lecture on medieval history. Sources to FT say Trump nearly walked out after Putin rejected a ceasefire deal and demanded Ukraine's capitulation.

Right-wing commentators claim inequality in Britain is falling. It isn’t. In this video, I expose the real story behind Britain’s growing inequality and why official data is misleading, as well as suggesting what we need to do to tackle this issue. youtu.be/WhFPzDWOQzk?...

Oh look - Farage.

In the US - again. This time slagging off UK teachers. Next thing you know he’ll be there having a go at our vicars, doctors and nurses.

This man seriously, seriously dislikes Britain, doesn’t he?

This feels like a guaranteed entry into next week’s issue of Bearly Newsworthy.
Hard to understand fuss over @realDonaldTrump not
being awarded #2025NobelPeacePrize! #Nobel
committee awards that prize for achievements from
the past & not from the future. So he couldn’t qualify
for #2025Prize. Suppose he ‘might’ qualify for
#2026Prize when he ‘might’ be able to claim
success!
Yes, so embarrassing.

Every benefit cut is a cut to a high street, a care worker, a council service.

You can’t “balance the books” by burning the foundations.

That’s how you hollow out a nation.
