@jamieoliver way to go saving the world from plastic - every piece of your cutlery comes nicely wrapped in its own plastic wrapping 😕 #really

Just want to be the first Kiwi to say Trump's attempts to start a shooting war with Iran should not mean a single New Zealand soldier sailor, pilot or "advisor" needs to be involved.

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

In order to get elected, @BarackObama will start a war with Iran.

So it seems Trump’s 4th of July is all wet and may even be canceled. After all, the man can barely operate an umbrella. But, like Trump himself, this storm over DC will eventually pass. And with all of us pitching in, clearer skies will lie ahead. #Election2020

Let this sink in:

There are tanks in the nation’s capital and concentration camps at its border.

The drift to toward the unimaginable is unmistakable.

gawd that must have been terrifying!

Why many Venetians hate cruise ships .... extraordinary scenes yesterday in the city.

This is the special story of how the world's largest dairy exporter, Fonterra, changed their entire milk tanker schedule in one district so that Andrew Oliver would go to bed on time.

Have a teenager? Know a teenager? Please watch & share. Nobody under 21 voted for this. I wrote this for them. They need to know the truth of what happened. The lies, the criminality, the failure to hold to account. It’s their future. Please share

@AdrienneRewi omg that looks so dramatic, like there should be some really intense orchestral music going on in the background

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

Ann Coulter tweeted that "the goal of a national emergency is for Trump to scam the stupidest people in his base for 2 more years." Retweet if you HATE that you have to agree with Ann Coulter for once.

a failed game show host became the united states president because millions of stupid fucks can't tell the difference between television and reality and that's the kind of industrial-strength stupid that doesn't magically cure itself overnight. have a super-blessed day everybody

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Don’t be sad it’s over, be proud it taught us so much. Congrats to all the men and women of @NASA on a @MarsRovers mission that beat all expectations, inspired a new generation of Americans, and demands we keep investing in science that pushes the boundaries of human knowledge.

[Kim Triegaardt @trikim]

@AdrienneRewi That's fantastic - well done you!!!!

[Kim Triegaardt @trikim]

@AdrienneRewi Where are you?

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

MSNBC just gave a precise explanation of Trump's thinking:

'He views The Rule of Law as presidential harassment'

To comprehend this, remember Trump's life is built on the premise that there are no rules that apply to him.

He even cheats at golf

Everything follows from that
