🚨NEW: The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for standing up against ICE.

RETWEET if you stand with Mayor Frey against the Trump Administration!

[Rasmus Jarlov @RasmusJarlov]

Let's get the facts straight regarding Trump's newest statements about Greenland:

1) Greenland has been owned by Denmark since 1380 and is today a fully integrated but self-governing part of Denmark. Very much like Alaska is part of the USA.

2) The USA does not have any historical claims to Greenland. On contrary they have signed numerous treaties with Denmark recognising Danish ownership.

3) The USA does NOT need Greenland for national security. The USA already has a defence agreement with Denmark that allows the USA to have as much military presence as they want in Greenland. They have decided to only have 150 troops currently. Why? Because:

4) Neither China nor Russia have any presence in Greenland at all. No companies, no mining, no consulates. Nothing. And they do not threaten Greenland. The only threat against Greenland is the USA.

I asked a question—and ended up in handcuffs.

If this is how the Trump administration treats a U.S. Senator in broad daylight, imagine what they’re doing to immigrants behind closed doors.

We cannot stay silent. We will not back down.

Now who was that woman that just stabbed her husband to death in Canterbury and buried him in her garden?

[Sarah Phillimore @SVPhillimore]

No. I consider men as a class dangerous. The men I have known all my life I can adequately risk assess - but it’s never fool proof as many millions of women murdered by men they loved could attest. If they were alive to speak.

The onus is not on women to risk assess each individual man on a case by case basis. All men stay out. Those men who are angered by this indicate precisely why.

Australia helped them out I believe. They were still trounced.

@Bbmorg To be fair the US didn't ask for help in Vietnam. Didn't end well though 😬

Good l, but note Baltic states not invited to the Security summit yesterday in London!

Russia started it well before then of course.

[Clandestine @WarClandestine]

If you still believe that Russia started this conflict in 2022, then you are either corrupt, ignorant, or brainwashed.

If you don’t know who Victoria Nuland is, or what she was doing in Ukraine in 2014, then you have no idea what’s going on.

The Deep State started this war. It was the Obama CIA/State Dept that funded Nazi militant groups to start a civil war in Ukraine, and initiated regime change to a CIA/State Dept puppet, Yatseniuk.

This was all revealed in the leaked phone call between State Dept diplomats and Deep State agents, Victoria Nuland and Geoffrey Pyatt (link in next post).

After the Maidan coup in February 2014, the US CIA/State Dept owned Ukraine via proxy, and the CIA began using Ukraine as a giant offshore playground for criminal racketeering and money laundering. Ukraine became one giant CIA base, directly on Russia’s border.

Then the US/NATO began building up Ukraine’s army for the sole purpose of one day fighting Russia. The US/NATO began supplying Ukraine with weapons, equipment, missiles, training, intelligence, etc.

Covert elements within the US government, along with their European partners in NATO, used espionage to overthrow and take control of the nation of Ukraine, then built a massive standing army on Russia’s border, then tried to bring Ukraine into NATO, and thus start WW3.

If you are still buying the official MSM narrative about this conflict, you should not be engaged in conversations.

Everything the MSM told you about Ukraine/Russia has been a lie, and in many cases, the inverse of the truth.

He forgot in the US first!

[Danny Boy @Care2much18]

This speech is full of half-truths, distortions, misleading claims and outright lies.

Basically living up to every meme, trope and unfair stereotype, of Americans being ignorant morons.

I'll go through each of the claims he made in this segment and what the actual facts are. /1

[Darkstar @eriksnapo]

All music to Putins ears!

[Guy Verhofstadt @guyverhofstadt]

Trump's dangerous tariff scheme is a blatant attack on its own people and a gift to billionaires, all while tearing apart his closest allies.

The EU must not bow to his bullying tactics. Call out his dangerous, self-serving agenda for what it is: a power grab fueled by greed, exploiting the world’s economy to serve the few at the expense of the many.

“There is palpable anger from the public that the Labour Party is choosing to balance the books on the backs of the poorest members of society.

@StephenFlynnSNP on Labour’s winter fuel cuts to pensioners

[Stop the War Coalition @STWuk]

🤔A simple question of priorities:

✔️Affordable: £3bn a year to Ukraine for a new package of ammunition, anti-armour missiles and artillery guns to extend an unwinnable, NATO proxy war.

✖️'Unnafordable': £3bn a year to improve the lives of 1.6mn children impacted by the two-child benefit cap.

☮️Cut war. Fight child poverty.

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

My article in Guardian urging the new Labour government to fend off Farage by tackling child poverty with the scrapping of the 2 child cap, strengthening trade union rights, adopting a pay strategy to restore lost wages & investing not privatising our public services.

Israel rained down eight tons of bombs in an attempt to kill a Hamas military commander. It exacted a heavy civilian toll. https://t.co/4YE038adIF https://t.co/4YE038adIF

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Today Israel has bombed a UN school sheltering displaced people, killing at least 16 people.

In the last ten days Israel has bombed 6 UN schools being used as shelters

Too good this!

It’s astonishing isn’t it: THE VOTE SHARE. No honeymoon with that ~ massive majority on v low vote share

Starmer 2024 33.8% of vote = 412 seats. Majority 168. CORBYN WON MORE VOTES IN 2019 THAN STARMER in 2024 > 10.2m v 9.7m

Blair 2024 43.2% of vote = 419 seats. Majority 179

@Peston @trussliz @itvpeston Any regrets?
