Iceland locks in on date for EU referendum | Euractiv As a member of the European Economic Area, Iceland is already aligned with much of the bloc's legislation

Just announced: Iceland has urgently moved up its referendum to join the European Union - to 29 August.

A reminder: ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ is in many ways already a non-voting ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ member because of the EEA. This would give them voting power to shape the laws they have to follow.

Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?

No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Trumpโ€™s New โ€œPrison Campโ€ Threat Unleashes Fury Even in MAGA Country The next phase of ICEโ€™s big ramp-up: a nationwide network of vast detention facilities. But guess what? Even parts of Red America are saying no.

They're building concentration camps. They got billions from the billionaire bill.

It aint just gonna be us brown people in them.

Tulsi called Donald after the raid and put him on speaker phone with the FBI agents conducting the active investigation. You bet it was coordinated.

Quick round up:

- the government is covering up evidence the president is a pedophile
- heโ€™s openly taking bribes from foreign governments
- his masked agents are shooting citizens in the streets
- the FBI is helping him steal the election
- heโ€™s threatening war against multiple allies

Marco Rubio has many titles, except when itโ€™s time to take accountability. He may be the Secretary of State, but Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with foreign leaders behind his back. When did the Senate confirm them as our representatives on the world stage?

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

There are no Christian militia marches this year because they pulled a Hitler, they gathered every murderous thug and vicious trouble maker and put them in #ICE .

Itโ€™s not just that they are murdering people who are peacefully protesting, itโ€™s that they then stand in front of the cameras and slander the victims by telling us that what we see on the videos didnโ€™t happen.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Iโ€™ve reached out to both Gov. Walz and Sen. Klobuchar following the latest shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota.

Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities โ€“ during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

A reminder to the news media: โ€œconflicting accountsโ€ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
