We can apparently take the Russians at their word.

Razor-sharp mind, this one.

Even knowing some of this stuff already, this piece still shocks

Well that should really assure the rest of the world that we know what we're doing

This is possibly one of the mentalist things about the whole junta!🙈

A closeup of two serious looking cats, litter mates, sitting side by side, loaf style, at the edge of a desk. The photo is taken from below, giving them an air of authority. On the left is tabby cat Joe, looking stern. On the right is Frankie, tabby striped on his back and forehead, mostly white in front, with a Christmas tree shaped splotch on his nose. Frankie is managing to look even more serious than Joe. An intimidating pair. #CatsOfBlueSky

Whelp. I've been called before the committee. Again.

On a short work trip to foggy frigid Norway and I’m off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of

My sweet lion.

Any Dublin appearances planned Glen?

The Trump administration is unsatirisable

A very normal guy

That Trump repeats calls for Iran's unconditional surrender on same day he's got the defence industrial chiefs round for an emergency meeting on military supplies perfectly sums up his grasp of ends & means.

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.

I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.

It's March 5th, and you know it!

That was a staple of my TV viewing in the 70s!

‘We’ve gone to war by mistake’

Looks like disenfranchisement is going to be part of the UK radical right pitch from now on.

Trump Officials Attended a Summit of Election Deniers Who Want the President to Take Over the Midterms The meeting’s participants included Kurt Olsen, a White House lawyer charged with reinvestigating the 2020 election, and Heather Honey, the Department of Homeland Security official in charge of electi...

NEW: More evidence that those who tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election are working with Trump administration officials to set the rules for the 2026 midterms. @dougbockclark.bsky.social

Colin Murphy: British Labour’s descent to by-election humiliation started with Tony Blair’s landslide As Keir Starmer’s Labour hits a humiliating new low, coming third in a by-election for what had previously been a safe seat, there is a clear point of origin for the decline of Labour — Tony Blair.

More great coverage of my new book on the Blair years, this time in the Irish Independent! Lots of coverage in Ireland, and I'll be doing more coverage there this week. Reflective, thoughtful. www.independent.ie/opinion/anal...

Joe Rogan's back today; his last interview (Friday) was a friendly one with Kennedy. Fairly curious to see how he deals with Iran, as his show was a forum for the Tulsi/Trump "vote against Kamala because she'll get us in to war" ruse

Always the first to flee while everyone else suffers the consequences.

As journalists working today many of us are taught to recognise disinformation when we see it and fight back against it.

Unfortunately there are some who willingly seek it out and put it on their front pages. A disgrace to the profession.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

It’s 2026 and political pundits out here still trying to will “conventional, normal, presidential” Trump into existence. Good luck with that.

Reform promises agency to ensure illegal migrant removals The party's new home affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf says it would be a

This is stenography, not news reporting. The BBC ought to provide some context, such as putting the scale of the changes which Reform claim are possible into context. This omits the major policy of revoking ILR and deporting legal migrants at unprecedented scale.

"These tariffs have been in effect for almost a year. They have upended whole sectors of the U.S. & global economies. The fact that a president can illegally exercise such powers for so long & w/ such great consequences for almost a year means we’re not living in a functional constitutional system."

I don't know what is going to happen. But I would recommend not getting your hopes up about Texas. I speak from experience.
