@IwriteOK Should've given the cops extra budget for that Don't Torture Vulnerable People into Confessing to Crimes They Didn't Commit training that costs suspiciously the same price as an MRAP
🇺🇸 Democrats spent 4 years desperately trying to get "moderate" Republicans to break from Trump.
The result? 94% of Republicans voted Trump - exactly the same as in 2020, while Democrat vote dropped.

“As deftly chronicled in Max Boot’s magisterial biography, “Reagan: His Life and Legend,” President Ronald Reagan blazed like a comet across the media and political skies for decades before plunging into obscurity after leaving the White House in 1989.” https://t.co/vyBpiqvxKC
A mother mourning her son who died of a fentanyl overdose is not garbage. A truck driver who can't afford rising diesel prices is not garbage. A father who wants to afford groceries is not garbage.
Kamala Harris and Joe Biden ought to be ashamed of themselves.
Can’t think of a worse sign for social trust than scientists for decades saying “climate change is gonna make hurricanes stronger” and then hurricanes get stronger and like 30% of Americans are like “stronger hurricanes…must be the (((globalists)))”
“there’s nothing inevitable about another round of austerity — is a deliberate decision to avoid confronting the powerful and presenting a real alternative for working-class people”

@kirstin_g I've had some stuff going on lately and I've been to more doctor visits in the last four months than in the previous 15 years and the only thing it's cost me is a $12 bus ticket to see a specialist an hour away. I don't want to think what it'd cost if I was still in the US.
If you think the media can’t be complicit with fascism, you’re in for a surprise. When I was a boy, the papers consistently amplified those politicians calling for forcible removal of all Japanese Americans from the West Coast.
We were U.S. citizens, but they didn’t care.
@bigblackjacobin I made $45 billion this year and spent $100 million on a newspaper. can someone who's good at the economy help me budget this? my family is dying
Getting rid of the 2 child benefits cap would help feed 1.5 ml children & cost £1.3bn a year. A 1-2% wealth tax on assets over £10ml would raise £22bn pa.
Reeves and Starmer will see kids hungry before taxing the elite.
They aren’t just Tories, they are cruel right wing Tories.
We recently had the pleasure of talking with @GresaNeziri from Space SyntaKs about how they used Mergin Maps for their SafoMeter project to monitor the safety of public spaces in Pristina for women and marginalised people

Niger is one of the poorest countries in the world
BUT it’s rich in natural resources like uranium, gold & more
As Michael Parenti says of so many countries, “It’s NOT a poor country; it’s a RICH country. ONLY the people are poor…”
Niger has been robbed by colonialism
