@Glenbo21@campbellclaret No “Trump and Vance just want” $500Billion for a tiny fraction of that amount which US actually gave (so far) to a country in need, but who they now try to take advantage of, and claim they’ll ‘work out some security guarantees later…’
@David17522949@campbellclaret “All he's saying is” … give us $500Billion dollars and ‘we’ll work out the security guarantees later’? Mmm, and he wonders why he can’t be trusted, especially when he lies about how much USA donated to a country in need, then clams they now ‘owe’ this and must repay?
As a senior journalist on the Guardian and Observer for 35 years, I believe the Scott Trust should reject this deal and embark on a proper review of the Observer's future if it is to uphold its clearly enunciated role as a defender of liberal journalism at home and abroad,
⚡️🇮🇱JUST IN:
Two Israeli female soldiers kidnap a Palestinian boy, strip him of his clothes, and blindfold him during the cold winter in the Gaza Strip.
These are the “innocent teenage girls” that Israel keeps portraying whenever anything happens to them.

What is the journalist value and where’s the balance in BBC coverage of US Election that takes repeated interviews from Trump devotees at Rebublic (only) ‘Vote Watch’ Events, all predictably saying they’re “confident” through gritted teeth 🤮😂 Come on BBC you must do better!
@susie_dent@dailystar Unfortunately Susie, that just about sums up a paper like The Star, “totally misleading and insensitive”. It’s no accident that’s for sure
@irumseeks @AJIunit I hear you but please be strong and watch it - EVERYONE needs to see this with their own eyes, for humanity’s sake, then tell the World (as mainstream media won’t show this or show the horror of what has gone on and continues to occur).
Ever wondered how and why >43,000 innocent Palestinians killed? Why so many Journalists and Aid Workers? Why so many talk of War Crimes (but not on mainstream media)? Why hypocrisy for IDF to claim people used as human shields? Then watch this! #GazaCrimes

@RealJakeBroe Huge difference between amount committed and the aid now delivered or about to be (ie “allocated”). Data shows at June 30th, US aid allocated was $85B (of $106B commitment directly for Ukraine) and Europe + UK had allocated $110B (of $209.5B commitment) https://t.co/HykdPs9CkK
@RealJakeBroe First, prior to latest “commitment” total US support passed in Congress was $175Billion (not 300) and of that only $106B directly aids the Ukraine Gov’t as rest is for related US activities and a few affected countries - all explained here https://t.co/HobLfH5qfi - 2/3
@RealJakeBroe Great video Jake. Would help people know true levels of aid if you could use your reach to provide the data on aid actually “allocated” to Ukraine compared to what are just “commitments” for help but not delivered. This shows just how big a lie Trump’s claimed $300Billion is. 1/3
@stuzi_pants@mrjamesob I don’t think about him at all unless totally unavoidable; but as you ask I wonder what destroyed his moral compass or if it required surgical removal of the part of the brain which processes empathy before he could look at himself without the contempt everyone else has for him🤮
So you are batting for Farage now?
Binned the Start Up party? - thought it was going to be ready to roll after the GE
Problem with the ECHR argument is the majority know the lies told over Brexit and the majority think we should rejoin - that does not dovetail with leaving ECHR - a move that won't stop the boats BUT it is not about that it is about ultimate power without challenge
@Dominic2306 Which rights under the ECHR are you particularly keen on no longer having the protection of for yourself or those you care about? Please be specific.
@harris_wins If he spat his dummy out and signed his elegance to Trump so easily, then tried to publicly shame her, kinda tells you she made the right decision
