Russia’s aggression has left Ukraine littered with mines and unexploded weapons. Today those saving lives are themselves coming under attack in breach of international law. We must Stand with Ukraine.

Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield @agdanrayfield.bsky.social · 3d

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying any National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon.

The president cannot keep playing whack-a-mole with different states’ Guard units to get around court orders and the rule of law.

Just got a haircut, and my lovely barber, a Turkish guy who employs 6 people, and has a wife who's an IVF technician, is shutting up shop and moving to another country because his Indefinite Leave to Remain is under threat by these venal, stupid, posturing politicians, left and right.

The UK must stand up for human rights & reject calls to leave the ECHR
The ECHR is the backbone of the #GoodFridayAgreement. It ensures human rights, equality, and a mutual respect across communities

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?
