Even in these times of rapidly shifting norms, there was something shocking about the recent Home Office change in internal guidance, slipped in without the need for legislative scrutiny, to deny British citizenship to anyone arriving in the UK “in an unauthorised manner”;
Denying refugees citizenship? How low can we go?

I wonder how those 1,000 FBI agents tasked with reviewing and redacting the Epstein files feel now that they've been sucked into a criminal conspiracy to violate the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Now would be a really good time to lawyer-up and seek whistleblower protections. Just saying.

Unsurprisingly, Bari Weiss & CBS filed a copyright claim against my YouTube channel to remove the CECOT video.

Do not forget—95 murders on the high seas so far.

That’s a lot of murder.

Trump's legacy just grows and grows.

Meanwhile, Bondi is working hard to cover up every Trump crime.

It is concerning to hear two Palestine Action hunger strikers have been taken to hospital.

The Government must intervene immediately to uphold their human rights and ensure they are treated with dignity.

INSTITUTIONAL FAILURE

This could’ve been avoided 30 years ago.

Maria Farmer’s 1996 FBI complaint has been unearthed in the Epstein files. It was the first time he was reported to the authorities. And they buried it.

“If the FBI had listened to me in 1996, there would’ve been no more victims.”

BREAKING: Israel’s Cabinet approves proposal for 19 new settlements in occupied West Bank.

This is Israel breaking the ceasefire, violating international law, & forcibly & violently stealing land—all while having killed more than 1000 Palestinian civilians in the West Bank over last 2 years.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:

It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.

It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.

Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

Live in Hampshire? You might have a view on whether any of your council tax should go towards buying ads on X.

Lots and lots of other ways to reach audiences with paid spend, Hants. And I never go there so that the fact I'm served this ad means your spend is being wasted.

This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that?

America will never ban all guns, but everyone can agree that assault-rifles have no place in civilian hands. Start there. It's hard to kill dozens of people with a handgun, or shotgun, it's a difficult, tedious process, and some brave soul will probably tackle you before long.

I can’t believe I have to do this.

But okay, for everyone wondering why Susie Wiles said all that shit…

It was all a smokescreen for this ONE statement.

Everything else she said was designed to make you say “oh… look… she’s being honest”… just so you’d believe this one thing.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.
