NEW @WIRED: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos sought to ingratiate themselves to Trump after the 2024 election — who in return mocked them behind their backs, per new book by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan

— Zuckerberg sent Trump a photo of a letter one of his grade-school kids wrote that looked forward to the “golden age of america”

— Bezos denigrated The Washington Post to Trump and described the newspaper as one of his worst financial investments

— Trump showed off texts from Zuckerberg and Bezos to other guests, including to Elon Musk, who mocked them as “Firstclass groveling”

— Months after their dinner, Bezos tried to get a favor from Trump, telling him it was a risk for SpaceX to dominate govt space contracts

— Bezos suggested Trump tell Deputy Defense Secy Feinberg to ensure“contractor diversity,” opening the door for Blue Origin to get contracts

— But Trump ultimately screwed over Bezos after he reconciled with Musk, and instead expanded SpaceX’s access to US space launch sites

— WIRED obtained the details from “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump” by @maggieNYT and @jonathanvswan ahead of June 23 release

Important for media to accurately describe both Reform and Restore as far right. Reform are civic nationalists from the pop radical right while Restore are more extreme and racial nationalist but framing it as though Restore are far right but Reform aren’t normalises the latter.

Nigel Farage asked trade unions to affiliate to Reform.

No thanks Nigel.

@Eyeswideopen69 “Solar Farms are killing U.K. Farming”

U.K. land use

63.1% farming
20.1% woodland, water and open land
8.7% development
4.9% residential gardens
1.3% residential
1% golf courses

0.08% solar farms

As I warned recently, there are still many unanswered questions about Nigel Farage's crypto policy and the £5m 'gift' he received from Thailand-based billionaire Christopher Harborne.

Now it’s confirmed he lobbied the Bank of England on a policy that would massively benefit his biggest donor.

The whole thing stinks. Looking forward to the investigation concluding soon.

The rich gather to oppose equality & plot how they can keep lining their own pockets - at our expense.

And of course Nigel Farage & his pals are along for the ride.

Why on earth is @bankofengland meeting with far right leaders in the first place?!

Tommy Robinson had to be smuggled into the Oxford Union hours early as hundreds of protesters blocked streets, outnumbering his supporters eight to one and forcing a much-reduced audience inside.

I joined my fellow Sinn Féin MPs in adding our names to this letter to the British Prime Minister and Home Secretary, calling for a compassionate, fair and transparent pathway for students from Gaza seeking to continue their education here.

These young people have endured unimaginable suffering, loss and disruption, yet they continue to show extraordinary determination to pursue their studies.

The British government must act now to ensure these students are properly supported and can pursue their education in safety and with dignity.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Farage is bought and paid for.

He must apologise and resign. Now.

[dave lawrence 🐟🐟🐠 @dave43law]

Oh look Farage's £5million ping man has his fingers in the health pot

Still trust Farage with the NHS??????????

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Haaretz should probably have a chat with their digital team - kinda weird to share this piece and not mention who wrote it.

Former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert!

I hope the paramilitary drug dealers will be charged with child abuse and coercion alongside drug dealing.

این یک سند تاریخی و پیامی از ایران مقتدر است: صلح در سایه احترام متقابل تحقق خواهد یافت.

جمهوری اسلامی ایران به صلح جهانی با حفظ عزت و استقلال، پیشرفت و همکاری منطقه‌ای همواره متعهد و پایبند است.

If, like Rupert Lowe, you think "grooming gangs" are an Islamic problem and not a Christian problem then you don't care about the victims, you just hate Muslims.

[Matthew Stadlen @MatthewStadlen]

MPs telling England footballers to win to avoid women being domestically abused is the sort of damaging nonsense we can expect if Reform win the next election. Difficult to overstate what a shambles it would be for the country.

[The Rev. Anton Mittens 🌹👮🎓 @MittensOff]

Useful response to so many posts on here!

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

This man fanatically supported the Iran war.

The Iran war he zealously cheered on was a predictable catastrophe.

But now he claims somehow to be proven right.

These warmongers have been completely humiliated.

Again.

They must never be listened to ever again.

"Why the f*** do we have a pub landlord from Essex telling us about politics or immigration or whatever else Russia want to interfere with?!!"
