I wonder, amidst outrage on trump's latest racism, how many people missed the news that hundreds of workers got laid off from a major tunnel-building project, because trump is holding it hostage in exchange for...
...putting his name on stuff?
INSANITY.
BREAKING: CNN’s Laura Coates completely dismantles Trump’s horrible response to posting the racist Obama video and his failure to take any sort of accountability. She tears him apart. You have to watch this.
British TV anchor @KamaliMelbourne of Sky News with a moving, personal response to Trump’s posting of the racist clip of the Obamas.
I know Kamali just a little. I’m proud of him for saying this — and sad we’re in a moment when he has to.
I just thought I’d drop this here for all the idiots who would like to suggest that London is more dangerous than any major city in the U.S. or Europe.
It’s utter nonsense and the data proves it. It’s not surprising to note that the disinformation is largely being spread by UK right wing disinformation peddlers aided and abetted by US right wing talking heads.
Here are the facts, with thanks to the Economist for the clip. Oh and by the way, just 6.5% of the population are Muslims and 50% of them were born here.
There are 268,000 reform members out of population of 69.3 million. It’s just that they shout their lies the loudest. I’ve lived long enough to see it all before. MAGA is not coming to the UK rest assured of that.

Neerja Bhanot was a 22-year-old flight attendant on Pan Am Flight 73, which was hijacked during a stopover on 5 September 1986.
Those responsible demanded that she collect passengers’ passports in order to identify certain nationalities like Americans. Realising the danger this posed, Neerja and the other crew members under her guidance quietly hid many passports of American passengers , slipping some under seats and disposing of others down a rubbish chute making it far harder to single anyone out.
As the ordeal continued for nearly 17 hours, the situation grew increasingly desperate. When chaos erupted inside the aircraft, Neerja opened an aircraft door.
That is when she had the opportunity to leave first, she chose instead to help others escape, prioritising passengers and unaccompanied children.
She remained behind, acting with extraordinary bravery and selflessness, and lost her life as a result
Neerja’s courage saved countless lives. In doing so, she also played a crucial role in preventing the aircraft from departing.
One of the children she helped that day, just seven years old at the time, later grew up to become a captain for a major airline. He credits Neerja as his inspiration and says he owes every day of his life to her.
The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.
Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.
See the problem?
Former nursing home executive and convicted fraudster Joseph Schwartz was pardoned by Trump earlier this month.
Schwartz secured the pardon after paying two other convicted fraudsters nearly $1M to lobby Trump on his behalf.
Everything is for sale.
The "Department of Government Efficiency" has disbanded eight months early.
DOGE sowed chaos throughout the government and disrupted services relied upon by millions, while finding hardly any savings.
Here's what you should know about damage that DOGE leaves behind.
"My name's Raymond. I'm 73. I work the parking lot at St. Joseph's Hospital. Minimum wage, orange vest, a whistle I barely use. Most people don't even look at me. I'm just the old man waving cars into spaces.
But I see everything.
Like the black sedan that circled the lot every morning at 6 a.m. for three weeks. Young man driving, grandmother in the passenger seat. Chemotherapy, I figured. He'd drop her at the entrance, then spend 20 minutes hunting for parking, missing her appointments.
One morning, I stopped him. "What time tomorrow?"
"6:15," he said, confused.
"Space A-7 will be empty. I'll save it."
He blinked. "You... you can do that?"
"I can now," I said.
Next morning, I stood in A-7, holding my ground as cars circled angrily. When his sedan pulled up, I moved. He rolled down his window, speechless. "Why?"
"Because she needs you in there with her," I said. "Not out here stressing."
He cried. Right there in the parking lot.
Word spread quietly. A father with a sick baby asked if I could help. A woman visiting her dying husband. I started arriving at 5 a.m., notebook in hand, tracking who needed what. Saved spots became sacred. People stopped honking. They waited. Because they knew someone else was fighting something bigger than traffic.
But here's what changed everything, A businessman in a Mercedes screamed at me one morning. "I'm not sick! I need that spot for a meeting!"
"Then walk," I said calmly. "That space is for someone whose hands are shaking too hard to grip a steering wheel."
He sped off, furious. But a woman behind him got out of her car and hugged me. "My son has leukemia," she sobbed. "Thank you for seeing us."
The hospital tried to stop me. "Liability issues," they said. But then families started writing letters. Dozens. "Raymond made the worst days bearable." "He gave us one less thing to break over."
Last month, they made it official. "Reserved Parking for Families in Crisis." Ten spots, marked with blue signs. And they asked me to manage it.
But the best part? A man I'd helped two years ago, his mother survived, came back. He's a carpenter. Built a small wooden box, mounted it by the reserved spaces. Inside? Prayer cards, tissues, breath mints, and a note,
"Take what you need. You're not alone. -Raymond & Friends"
People leave things now. Granola bars. Phone chargers. Yesterday, someone left a hand-knitted blanket.
I'm 73. I direct traffic in a hospital parking lot. But I've learned this: Healing doesn't just happen in operating rooms. Sometimes it starts in a parking space. When someone says, "I see your crisis. Let me carry this one small piece."
So pay attention. At the grocery checkout, the coffee line, wherever you are. Someone's drowning in the little things while fighting the big ones.
Hold a door. Save a spot. Carry the weight no one else sees.
It's not glamorous. But it's everything."
Let this story reach more hearts....

Donald Trump, a victim of political violence himself, just threatened to “hang” Democratic Members of Congress— all who served our country. Every single American, especially elected Republicans, must condemn this horrific incitement of violence immediately.
A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence.
Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say.
Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.
