Remember when Presidents did national speeches for emergencies or times where a nation needs to hear from their leader?
This angry old man is literally screaming and clearly panicking

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

ICYDK, tRump is a hypocrite. He pardoned the former president of Honduras, who was convicted of sending 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.

Councillors no longer to be allowed to decide applications for 150 homes+ This is infantilising of elected representatives and spells the end of meaningful local planning…

It’s up to ‘more than 20’ opposing the immigration proposal.
It’s actually 24 (mainly usual suspects) that means there are 387 Labour MPs that either agree with it or they just don’t care enough to take a stand. Looking at you @mattwestern.bsky.social

Stunning northern lights over the San Francisco bay, much more intense than May of last year, clearly visible to the unaided eye at its peak! Just incredible, one of the most incredible things I've ever seen!

It's ONLY been 65 years since six year old Ruby Bridges walked through the halls of William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to attend an all white school. Met with mobs and hate, her bravery and courage helped change the course of history for this nation.

BREAKING: Minutes after Barack Obama’s message to end hunger in America, Vikings CEO Mark Wilf quietly donated $900,000 to Minnesota food banks. Obama personally thanked him and sent a handwritten note — a gesture that left Vikings fans deeply moved. #Skol #Vikings #NFL #Obama

Some on here occasionally recommend I go back and take a high school government class. Heading to South Kansas City this morning to do just that!
I imagine texts have changed a bit since the 90s/early 00s, but reading up a bit for prep.
