Since dopey americans voted for a lunatic as ther POTUS, us this side of the pond have leant so much about United Snakes so called 'democracy'. We wouldn't have a clue as to the politrics of any of our judges & that is how it should be,,, but you lot,, jeez, idiots with power are extra dangerous

The New York Times@nytimes.com

The liberal organization Demand Justice is preparing a multimillion-dollar effort to oppose President Trump's potential Supreme Court appointees before they happen — with a warning that he could be replacing two justices this year.

It's now patently obvious that Trump never wanted to 'drain the swamp',, he wanted to protect it.!

The stakes are too high to wait: we need to impeach Trump now. I’ll be speaking at the Remove the Regime rally in Washington, DC this Saturday. I hope to see you there! @flareusa.bsky.social @removalcoalition.bsky.social

"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:

thebulwark.comHonoring Ashli Babbitt Dishonors the MilitaryIf there’s no difference between upholding the Constitution and attacking it, then there’s no honor in service.

Would vote for you @mark-carney.bsky.social but I'm a Brit, so cant Do thank Trump for doing such a stellar job in ensuring your success & indeed going the xtra mile in ensuring the demise of your conservative opponent in not only losing the election but also his seat Another Donny done deal eh

If you’re in line when the polls close, stay in line. You can still cast your ballot. Your vote matters.

Lies are Murdoch's MO, he learnt in Australia that there is far more $$ in lies than truth & like any bad virus he bought his vileness first to the UK, then the USA, with impunity Of all the immigrants allowed into the USA he is the worst type Dont take my word for it, just ask his family

So the free speech absolutist isnt absolute after all. Thinks he's entitled to say what he likes but nobody else is🤔 Genius? Nah, unlike Faraday Einstein Newton etc he cant stick to what he's good at, he's a buffoon. Jeez, he even hates (most) foreigners while being a tax dodging one himself🤔

It’s time to build a Canada you can afford.   My government will make Canada the world’s leading energy superpower, build homes at a pace not seen since WWII, and train thousands more skilled trades workers.

Its elementary maths folks We should remember this POTUS cant read a tape measure, let alone understand simple arithmetic Note: He owned a casino that went bust so how many errors does this clown have to make before simple Americans wake up & realise they've been conned by this snake oil salesman

🚨 NEWS: The White House confirms the tariff on Chinese imports is now 145%—not 125%. Reminder: tariffs are taxes on imported goods, which means Americans end up paying more.

Anyone in US discuss why companies closed their factories & relocated them🤔 Was it because extremely wealthy men wanted to be richer so decided to desert the USA/workers in favour of China & co They weren't forced to leave, they wanted to & other countries accepted them Its called capitalism👍

This is a sad state of affairs.

Unlike UKs worst PM Liz Truss, who's infamy lasted less than a cabbage before getting the boot for tanking our economy Seems like US cabbages are more hardy as Trump is still POTUS🤔 How bad does it have to get before the fools realise he's not only damaging the country but damaging them as well?

Hey, I wonder if there's any economic news today. I'll check out the website of America's biggest news network--Fox! Phew. Nothing's up! Biggest news in US today is a very nice Christian woman was slapped for no reason after sticking a camera in a stranger's face & calling her a baby killer.

And the late great George Calin would agree Americans who think they live in the freest country in the world need to travel abroad bit more. (If their boss allows them time off to do so😕) Amsterdam would be a good start ;-)

Some of us have been saying this since 2020 and even before: Dems should make corruption *the* central issue in US politics and public life and go on the offensive against GOP/MAGA/Trump transparent and hypocritical corruption and grifting. Most voters hate corruption.

Musk’s latest intervention is objectively hilarious but the problem of a hideous human using his enormous wealth & power to promote lies & liars in the U.K., despite having no links to or other interest in the country, remains acute.
