Larry David, you are just too good at what you do!

Check out this clip from Larry David's new show, it's almost as if it wrote itself!

That Bunny was AMAZING. Elmo thinks he should be called Good Bunny! Elmo loves you, Mr. Good Bunny! ❤️🎶🐰

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Listen to British member of Parliament Ed Davey completely tear Trump apart, calling him, the "most corrupt president America has ever seen" and "an international gangster":

"President Trump is acting like an international gangster, threatened to trample over the sovereignty of an ally, threatening the end of NATO altogether, and now threatening to hit our country and seven European allies with outrageous damaging tariffs unless he gets his hands on Greenland. This is an incredibly grave moment for the United Kingdom, Europe, and the world. He is a bully. The most corrupt president, the United States has ever seen. So there are only two ways to get him to back down: bribing him with a new jet, perhaps, or a few billion in his crypto account."

Pay attention, Nobel Peace Prize committee. @NobelPrize

THIS is what someone who deserves a Nobel Peace Prize looks like... Venerable Bhikkhu Pannakara lives for peace! ☮️

This is the most neutral summary I’ve seen of the Minnesota murder by ICE. It has ALL angles, it syncs them together, and shows the lead up and aftermath… if you watch this all and still think those shots were justified - you just might be a psychopath.

[Irish Sport for Palestine @Sport4Palestine]

Joey O'Brien, Shelbourne FC Ireland, sends a message of support to all the children, players, parents and coaches in the Aida Youth Centre in Behtlehem. Joey calls on the Israeli government to cancel their order of demolition for the Aida football pitch and allow Palestinian children to continue to play on their pitch. #letthemplay #showisraeltheredcard

You'd look great in a Free Ben & Jerry's t-shirt. Or you can adorn your laptop or water bottle with a sticker or — my favorite— the embroidered hat.

It's another way you can continue your support in giving Ben & Jerry's back its heart and voice.

All items are 25% off for the first 1000 orders! All proceeds will be reinvested directly back into efforts to Free Ben & Jerry's

Keep tagging @MagnumGlobal Keep telling EVERYONE to sign the letter. Keep showing your support.

The fight isn't over until we #FreeBenandJerrys!

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

DANISH PARLIAMENT MEMBER: “🇺🇸 had 30 bases on Greenland, why did you leave? You can resume that tomorrow without attacking a NATO ally… the rationale lacks factual foundation and doesn’t stand any logic testing.”

(Unless the point is to hurt us and end NATO, a Putin/Xi goal)

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to the benefit of my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

[Boston Smalls @smalls2672]

[Daud Kyarizov @KyarizovDaud]

Since there’s so much interest in the truth about my country, I want to share more because the world almost never hears what really happens inside Turkmenistan.

For years, my organization Rights and Freedoms of Turkmenistan Citizens (RFTC) has worked to document crimes of the Berdymukhamedov regime: torture, enforced disappearances, political persecution, corruption, and state-sanctioned violence. We hold ECOSOC Special Consultative Status at the United Nations, and we submit reports directly to UN bodies, the EU, OSCE, and international governments.

Who we are and why we fight:

My father, Geldy Kyarizov, is one of Turkmenistan’s most respected cultural figures, a world-renowned breeder of the Akhal-Teke horse and the man who saved the national breed from extinction. His horse Yanardag, is in the National Emblem of Turkmenistan.
Because of his reputation and independence, the regime targeted him. He was imprisoned on fabricated charges, tortured, denied medical care, and our family’s entire property valued at over $7 billion was seized.

My mother, Yulia Serebryannik, a cardiologist and human rights defender, fought for years to expose the truth. Her advocacy is the reason the United Nations took up our case.

In 2024, the UN Human Rights Committee ruled in our favor (Decision: CCPR/C/141/D/3097/2018), ordering Turkmenistan to:

• return our confiscated property
• compensate for torture and persecution
• protect our family from further harm

Instead of complying, the regime retaliated.

Retaliation on U.S. soil — Boston, October 2024

Five days after we publicly announced the UN ruling at the OSCE conference in Warsaw, I was violently attacked in Boston. This was not random. This was a message.

This is how far Turkmenistan’s security apparatus reaches even into the United States.

The fight is severe the regime uses every weapon it has

Turkmenistan is not just an authoritarian state. It is a mafia family regime. They employ every tool to silence dissent:

•physical attacks
•intimidation of relatives
•surveillance
•threats against children and elderly parents
•digital sabotage
•smear campaigns
•attempts to destroy platforms that speak the truth

Most recently, exactly when Serdar Berdymukhamedov traveled to the U.S., the government attempted to shut down our YouTube channel “Turkmen Yurt TV”

What is happening inside Turkmenistan right now:

People need to understand the scale of corruption and fear:

• Billions spent on “construction projects” is money laundering.

The skyscrapers, palaces, hotels, white-marble monuments, these are not “development.” They are schemes to move state money into private offshore accounts.

• Almost every construction company is owned by the president’s family.
Turkmenistan’s budget is drained into fake tenders that always go to the same inner-circle companies. Ordinary citizens see nothing of this wealth.

• At least 4 million Turkmen have fled the country. Only about 2 million remain inside. Forced poverty and hopelessness pushed an entire nation into exile. Turkmenistan is a rentier state, the regime survives on gas money, not its people.

• The regime is grooming new heirs.
Recently, Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov began showing his daughter in state media, a clear move to secure absolute dynastic control.

My message to U.S. leaders

Serdar Berdymukhamedov has just traveled to the United States.

I call on President @realDonaldTrump and Senator @SecRubio both of whom have spoken forcefully about authoritarian regimes, to pressure Turkmenistan to:

•uphold the UN Human Rights Committee ruling
•end retaliation against dissidents abroad
•stop the laundering of state funds
•and take concrete steps toward ending absolute authoritarian rule

Millions of Turkmen people live without freedom, without justice, and without a voice. If the world continues to look away, the regime will continue to act with total impunity.

[Peter Ratcliffe, forever Canadian 🇨🇦 @PeterHRatcliffe]

Canada has long encouraged political satire funded by our publicly funded Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

This Hour Has 22 Minutes roasts sitting governments. This segment roasting US King Trump would be illegal in the US, so if you’re from the US please don’t watch it.
