I want to stay and read the books I haven’t read, find out things I haven’t yet found out. I want to write things I haven’t written. To listen to music…

Not everyone believed me when I wrote that Trump wants Greenland becuase it would make him feel important, but that's what he told the NYT:

When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: “Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success"

JD Vance asks you not to believe your lying eyes.
Vance: "She was trying to ram this guy with her car, he shot back, he defended himself, he's already been seriously wounded in operations before. And everybody that is repeating the lie that this is some innocent woman who was out for a drive in Minneapolis, you should be ashamed of yourselves"

British news today is 30% "so, the world's most powerful nation has turned rogue internationally and a dictatorship domestically" and 70% "ANYWHOOO, innit cold? here is footage of a gritter".

Sky News on Renee Nicole Good murder: "There are deeply conflicting accounts of what happened."

REALLY? Gonna both-sides this? One "account" can be seen on video and is confirmed by a dozen eye-witnesses. The other is a social media post by history's most notorious pathological liar.

Grow a spine.

Those of us who grew up in 1970s Britain didn’t have mobile phones or computer games. But we did have fantastic children’s TV programmes. Like Rentaghost. Here’s my tribute to a wonderful BBC show that was born 50 years ago. #Rentaghost

The US attack on Venezuela is an illegal act of aggression against a sovereign country (with lots of oil). Venezuela has become a more deeply repressive dictatorship & urgently needs democratic solution but this is unjustified & unjustifiable. Look forward to seeing swift UK Government condemnation.

Please give a thought to people whose New Year’s Eve was spent in bomb shelters because a criminal invader was trying to destroy their energy infrastructure.
‼️ How Russia attacked Ukraine on New Year's Eve: a map of the flight of enemy targets.

Main directions: Lutsk, Volyn, Odesa, Konotop, Zatoka. The main target is energy infrastructure.

How pleasingly ironic it would be for the British Broadcasting Corporation to remind Americans what the First Amendment is all about. The BBC may be about to lose a director general, but it still has a spine. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/...
The BBC has no choice but to teach Trump a lesson about free speech
The corporation may have lost a director general, but now needs to prove it still has a spine

And yet the BBC has blocked its journalists from even reporting that @rutgerbregman.com made this same, spectacularly self-evident, statement of fact in his Reith Lecture.
I genuinely don't think I've ever seen a more transparently corrupt government and I'm from India
trumpcard.gov is live and the million dollar fees are all referred to as “gifts” or “contributions” to an undisclosed party lol

“Je suis Bernard Manning,” claims Nigel Farage. And so he is. But not quite in the way he meant. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/uki...

The biggest surprise about Farage's time at Dukwich is how he managed to leave without getting his head kicked in.
He would have done in most state schools.

Farage had to come out hiding early because Tice tried to defend him earlier & libelled the target of Farage’s vicious anti-semitism. Rarely have two people deserved each other more.

What a recommendation! Thank you @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social & @rory-stewart.bsky.social both for recommending the podcast AND backing @the-citizens.bsky.social campaign for an inquiry into Russian interference in UK politics 👊👊👊
Rory Stewart and Alistair Campbell @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social spell out what needs to happen - the same demand we’ve made for years.

We need a real, independent inquiry 🧵
