How hot will it get this weekend? Here's the latest from our Chief Meteorologist 👇 www.metoffice.gov.uk/about-us/new...

CLEARLY intentional

Cops keeping the reporters off the streets. Hm.

They are undeniably powering ahead with renewables but there is also a flip side as they are currently building over 100GW of coal power plant capacity. Many of these reportedly backed by coal mining linked groups

Moody’s downgraded the U.S.’s credit rating for the first time in history because the Republicans can’t get their fiscal house in order and Trump is playing whack-a-tariff with our biggest trading partners. Are we great yet, America?

I wouldn't be out there if I didn't believe that America can come through this moment, if each of us is prepared to play our role in demanding and delivering a better future.

Canada, meet your new Cabinet. This is a team that is empowered and expected to lead. Together, we will create a new economic and security relationship with the United States and build a stronger economy — the strongest economy in the G7.

Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

Someone tell the NY Times that Hillary is accepting a plane from Qatar. Then maybe they’ll stop being pussies and start covering it for the corruption that it is.

There’s not enough pins in the world.

Those aren't cops. Those are terrorists. No badges, no ID, no legitimacy. Terrorists.

And perfectly fine if January 6th and right leaning militia members wear them.

The Labour gov have allowed wood burning stoves to be permitted in new homes as a secondary heating source in the Future Homes and Buildings Standards. As an air quality scientist, this is appalling news. Smoke from stoves is a growing health hazard. But why did the UK gov make this decision? 🧵

I fear the damage that Tony Blair has done. In the world of so much misinformation and lies about the wider and long term generational benefits of net zero on climate and air quality - Tony has frankly been a complete idiot with these remarks. Could undo so much good work and planning.

Blair is a detestable man, absolutely consumed by greed. He is already extrememly wealthy but continues to strive for more. He is everything that is wrong with humanity where enough is never enough. Nothing seems to be off limits in his money making ventures.

Absolutely ridiculous 🤦

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after. But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

The only thing we had to offer the world was our good faith and our sound dollar. Trump has destroyed both in 90 days.

We’ve stopped using ours after installing air to air heat pump. It’s healthier, cleaner and cheaper than burning wood 👌

I went to El Salvador hoping to meet with Kilmar and check on his well-being, and I had the chance to do that last night. Our courts have been clear: this was an ILLEGAL abduction. I’m speaking now about my meeting with Kilmar and our work to bring him home:

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

Welcome to our everyday hell, fund managers.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

The Singapore-on-Thames brigade never admit that 80% of Singapore’s residents live in govt subsidised housing and 30% of Singapore’s residents are migrants. Extrapolate those percentages to UK means 56 million in UK would be living in council housing and 22 million migrants living in UK.

Oh THIS is a rare gem of good news! Blimmin brilliant

Zipping around on his golf cart, Trump was quick to skip the dignified transfer of four American soldiers who died during a training exercise in Lithuania. Trump elected instead to go golfing and dine with the Saudis. More than 24 hours after the soldiers first went missing, Trump casually…

This isn't just donalds doing. The Republicans in Congress own this. They had the ability to stop him and they didn't. This isn't donalds economy, this is the republican economy.

I honestly think this is an opportunity for European and Asian businesses.

Not just individuals. Honestly I’m annoyed at the tone of press coverage. It’s not a “global trade war” unless we all start imposing tariffs on each other. If it’s just one country, even if it’s the world’s largest economy, it’s still unilateral and after some disruption others will fill the void.

He bankrupted a fucking casino. A casino. Those weren’t just political talking points. It was a reminder that Trump is an incompetent industrial scale bullshit producer and a warning of what was certain to be our fate if we put him in charge.

This is what happens when people speak up.

Very sad to see this www.economist.com/graphic-deta...

You know things are bad when Mike Pence is the voice of reason

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.
