This get a serious WTAF? It is posted by the White House.

For example, this. It's from a European/American white nationalist anthem.

Wow, the US govt is sending its swarm of fanatical right-wingers out to attack Hilton Hotels:

Showing images of prisoners is a war crime. "Exposure to public curiosity."

Starmer's Labour is afraid to do something about Brexit. They fear they will stir up literally dead voters. Meanwhile new voters & Labour voters want something done.

America, here's the reason for Trump. The Obama admin didn't spend money to get people employed & cared for. So the job recession went on and on. Trump got in.

Biden learned from that, but Republicans & "centrist" Dems blocked help that would have been FELT before 2024 election. Trump got back in.

America - this is the President of the United States posting this.
December 11, 2025 at 7:38 AM
I'm in the UK. Is the US media reporting this stuff? This is a Trump tweet on Truth Social. Shouldn't the public know about stuff like this?
December 11, 2025 at 7:16 AM
For those who don't know, this was posted by the Secretary of State for the Home Department of the UK government.

This was posted on the Nazi website X.

It's not about "immigration. It was never about "immigration."

It's about white nationalism. It's about race.

US and UK.

scams, busting unions, etc, became commonplace. People's pay & benefits stagnated or declined while CEO pay and stock prices went nuts. /2

EVERYONE understands the wealthy and their corporations pay vastly less in taxes than before Reagan/Thatcher.

EVERYONE understands this is because the wealthy pay political parties & politicians to give them breaks.

Gallup poll, Nov 2025. (Numbers in the UK are likely similar.)

The original No Kings document. October 18 is the next big No Kings Day. Rallies will be held across the US.

Shaping political beliefs. What the media makes people afraid of. (PS Lately it's immigrants.)
October 12, 2025 at 6:50 AM
They SAY it's about "immigration." So did the 1930s Germans.

This is an anti-Brexit poster and a Nazi propaganda poster.

"Live" news:

Made a deal to block war ending before 68 election. Kept the war going so he could announce PEACE just before the 72 reelection. Then kept it going.

It's not a "distraction" it's armed military occupying a US city. It's people being stopped & beaten. It's people's homes being searched, people being removed from their offices, people detained and deported to places like Uganda,

It's a fascist takeover.

This below is why people hate Democrats:
August 26, 2025 at 6:56 AM
In the US "news" Republicans are always the protagonists. Democrats are the usurpers. Everyone else is fringe. Dems buy into it.

The UK media treats Reform that way. They drive the news, their issues are the issues.

Starmer's Twitter feed this week - bashing refugees, talking about "crime."
August 15, 2025 at 6:58 AM
I keep hearing that Bluesky is "the left."

Meanwhile, Twitter:

We have to cut pensions. We have to cut public services. There's just isn't the money.

Has Trump chickened out on this threat?
June 7, 2025 at 11:06 AM
This tweet explains America's political "system." The richest man in the world explains the hos money bought the presidency and control of Congress.

This is where democracy went. It allowed money in politics, and that was that.
