"I'M AN ELECTION JUDGE FOR 10 YEARS. NON-CITIZENS CANNOT VOTE ALREADY AND OUR SYSTEM CATCHES THE FEW WHO TRY. NO NON-CITIZEN WOULD EVER RISK THEIR ENTIRE FUTURE IN THE UNITED STATES TO CAST A BALLOT! IT IS A CRIME PUNISHABLE BY 5 YEARS IN JAIL.
IT ALSO MAKES THE PERSON DEPORTABLE, WITH NO WAIVER AVAILABLE. THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM IN THE REAL WORLD. THE REAL PROBLEM REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO "SOLVE" IS THAT AMERICAN CITIZENS (ESP.

The gulf between what people think of Tony Blair commenting on war in the Middle East & what Tony Blair thinks people think of Tony Blair commenting on war in the Middle East is positively Badenochian.

HOW MANY MORE OIL WARS WILL WE ALLOW?

The climate fight for clean energy is a fight for peace & stability.

Beware false solutions like "green" hydrogen, pushed by methane companies (aka, natural gas).

There is only one CA Gov candidate who gets it: Betty Yee!

I must apologise for Richard Stupid Tice not understanding that no gas or oil is β€˜our own’ because Maggie Thatcher sold it off, so it is all sold by private companies on the global market. Norway did not sell theirs off and now have a sovereign wealth fund of Β£1.6trillion.

Reminder β€” 23 years ago, just before the Iraq War began, Keir Starmer QC wrote in the Guardian challenging the legality and morality of the invasion. That article made him persona non grata with Blair. #UKPolitics

Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

Epstein files contain explicit but unsubstantiated claim that Trump abused minor Department of Justice did not release FBI memos when it uploaded millions of pages of files beginning in December

Presumably as explicit and unsubstantiated as those against Peter Mandelson and Andrew Windsor. I look forward to the imminent arrest
