14,000 babies could die in 48 hours without aid. That’s the warning from the UN.

This is genocide in real time and Keir Starmer's government is complicit.

Still arming Israel and running surveillance flights. No sanctions or expulsion of the Israeli Ambassador.

Shame on them.

Trump is the head of a criminal syndicate, and he should be treated accordingly—now and, even more importantly, when he and his accomplices are finally out of power.

Verizon ended its DEI policies.

They told employees that they were required to by SCOTUS and Trump's Executive Orders — they lied.

They did it so the FCC would approve their $20B acquisition of Frontier.

Corporate greed over what's right, every time.

Verizon said it was "fiercely committed to diversity and inclusion." Verizon lied.
"Verizon is fiercely committed to diversity and inclusion across all spectrums because it makes us and the world better."

"Totally and utterly inadequate" says Starmer about Israel's plans to let in a 'basic' amount of food. "We cannot allow the people of Gaza to starve" adds the man whose government sold more weapons to Israel in the 3 months of Oct - Dec '24 than the Tories in 4 years.

Steve has a catastrophic hangover and unfortunately also has a power point presentation to make at the office.
He's trying his best, but it's not going well. He's already had the laser pointer confiscated and called his boss 'Mum' (twice).
He's currently busy apologizing to the projector.

She was a domestic terrorist who tried to violently overthrow an American election. She was shot & killed by police. A DOJ investigation found no wrongdoing in her shooting. But Trump just ordered our government (your tax dollars) to pay her family $5 million.

Disgraceful.

Your now regular reminder that threatening the sovereignty of a NATO ally, while 🇷🇺 is illegally occupying 20% of 🇺🇦 & 🇨🇳 is eyeing 🇹🇼 & illegally seizing territory in the S.
