Being alive for the "find out" portion of history is really tiring when I wasn't doing the fucking around 😭

Donald Trump, "The USA wasn't involved," also Donald Trump, "the next attack will be even more brutal." You realize it can't be both.

🚨🚨"It is hard to predict how this will end, other than badly. It will take years to rebuild America’s constitutional checks and balances, institutions, and international standing, but possibly decades to restore political trust." Excellent by @alexhh.bsky.social on the #LA military deployment:

Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

We live in Britain, and there are now profound questions to ask our government. There's no conceivable bridge between Europe & this US administration. Whether we escape tariffs is a laughably parochial question. Yesterday is now an awfully long time ago.

Almost 20 European leaders, incl Emmanuel Marcon & Friedrich Merz, plus VDL, have posted in support of @ZelenskyyUa after White House showdown. Notably, Keir Starmer has not. No 10 is referring reporters to PM’s comments this week on a just & lasting peace, with Ukraine at heart of talks.

Good grief, is there anything more vomit inducing than watching Keir Starmer suck up to Trump 🤮

I absolutely hate it when people walk really closely behind me. There's literally room to go round me, or tell me to speed up, whatever, just get out of my arse. fgs 🫠🫠🫠

This X account has been given a grey checkmark, verifying it as an official government account. It also only accepts resumes be DM's, which are solely open to verified X users who pay Elon Musk. This level of corruption is staggering.

Trump expected to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS
The choice will roil many public health experts after his years of touting debunked claims that vaccines cause autism.

Morning Bluesky. The EU needs to move fast. German MPs have been briefed by the Federal Civil Protection Agency that if Ukraine falls within the next six months, millions of Ukrainians will head West. Official estimate: 10 million. Unofficial: up to 18 million.

We’re about to find out whether there are any patriots among Republican Senators, or whether they’ll make excuses for the foreign-backed demolition of our Republic that is now plainly underway.

Labour’s Bill to remove hereditary peers from the House of Lords reaches Committee Stage soon. These titles—passed down by family lineage—mean unelected power in Parliament, largely for wealthy white men. Jenny Rhodes reports.

The truth about an archaic tradition Labour wants to abolish
For centuries, Parliament has had ‘noblemen’ sitting in the House of Lords, solely due to their ancestral lineage – but their days are numbered

This is heartbreaking 😭 I have long said fireworks shouldn't be sold to the general public - they should only be allowed at licensed areas away from communities. The poor thing 😢

Idly wondering what happens if Trump leaves NATO, his Fox News Host Defence Secretary gets the US into a war, US is attacked and nobody in NATO comes to America's aid because, well, there it is.

Somewhere at the BBC, a VFX editor painstakingly removes the last shot of Huw Edwards from the Coronation coverage, checks the news, sighs, scrolls back looking for the Archbishop of Canterbury.
