Hate this shambles of a govt. Liverpudlian, Socialist, atheist. Sorry 😢can’t follow as I’m at my limit. I like my followers don’t want a cull #NotMyPM 🕷#FBPPR
BREAKING: This May Be The Biggest Escalation Yet.
Trump says the United States will be taking control of Kharg Island, Iran’s main oil export hub, and has compared the strategy to what his administration did in Venezuela. Reports indicate he also vowed to hit Iran “very hard” and take control of key energy infrastructure. (Reuters)
Why does that matter?

The conversation has moved well beyond retaliation.
The question is whether this is a threat, a negotiating tactic, or the beginning of something much larger.
🔥 “True progress can never be bought at the expense of our people, our culture, our environment.”
@Fisk1866 U students & alumni (incl. @brotherjones_) stood at the gates to oppose a planned on-campus data center announced after all the HBCU students went home for the summer.🤔
🚨 Day 11.
More footage from today’s mass protests in Albania against the planned luxury resort project on Sazan Island backed by Jared Kushner.
First came the development proposal.
Then came allegations of political favoritism and a lack of transparency.
Now thousands are still taking to the streets for the eleventh consecutive day.
Most development controversies generate a news cycle.
This one has generated a movement.
The question is whether Albanian officials move forward with the project anyway, or whether sustained public pressure starts changing the political calculus.
NASHVILLE: “If a data center project is not good for a zoo, it’s not good for an HBCU.”
Rep. @brotherjones_, students, alumni at @Fisk1866 U opposed a mysteriously-funded on-campus data center project shrouded in secrecy.
(His environmental racism class was abruptly canceled🤔)

You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts.

WATCH: “Ummmm… Rep. John Rose’s wife was 14 when he first met her. He was 40.”
True.👇🏽(stay tuned for when we asked him about this)
Now the Republican is running for governor. 😬 Maybe he’s not the best “protect our children” messenger?
MIKA: Given your sexting, can you call for the release of the Epstein files and not be conflicted in any way?
PLATNER: Yes, of course. I engaged in consensual romantic activities with adults at an earlier part of my life. That seems like a fairly normal thing most people do. Going to an island with billionaires to possibly assault children is a vastly, vastly different thing.
BREAKING: Bill Gates Is About To Be Questioned About Jeffrey Epstein.
Not under oath. Not in public.
Behind closed doors.
First came promises of transparency.
Then came years of unanswered questions.
Now comes a private interview the public won’t be able to watch.
Everyone says they want the truth.
But the people paying attention are still being asked to take someone else’s word for it.
“I have a lot of questions about our F-15 pilots who went down over Iran who we’ve still never met.” 🤔 (good point!)
Ex Trump Campaign Deputy Comms Director @CSUNSHINE says Trump’s war with Iran is hurting our standing all over the world and needs to end.
🔥 @adammocklerr: “Susan Collins IS THE DEFINITION OF A SWAMP CREATURE… and my definition of ‘masculinity’ precludes people who shill for someone who offended their wife (Cruz) or cheat on their wives (Trump & Paxton)…”
Young Jedi Mockler landing haymakers as usual 🥊 🥷🏼
