Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

I thought of you today at Murrayfield and that you might need to know…
🟢 You matter
🔵 You are not alone
🟢 You are not the problem
🔵 Suicide is not the answer
🟢 This pain will pass
🔵 Talking can help
🟢 One day soon you’ll be glad you stayed
So please stay.

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 76 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight
Please take just two seconds to show you’re right behind NHS staff
REVEALED:
The King and Prince William are funding their private lifestyles by secretly levying millions of pounds a year of charges from the armed forces, the NHS, state schools, charities, mining companies and the general public.

@RCdeWinter You're one of the highlights on my twitter feed. The stories are always interesting, and punchlines so well set up. Keep up the high standard!
Israel is committing war crime after war crime.
Sanctions on Israel are the only way to force it to stop.
Sanctions on trade.
Sanctions on arms.
Sanctions on officials.
Real actions, not just words, are needed from political leaders to get Israel to end its war crimes.
Very concerning that there is a news blackout in the United Kingdom on the murder by Israel of the 4 British Oxfam engineers who were attempting to fix a water supply in Gaza. They were in a marked vehicle and had notified and obtained permission from the IDF prior to commencing work.
