In case you forgot what a U.S. president beloved by the world looks like. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 Live in Manchester: An Evening with President Barack Obama. The arena holds up to 23,500 people with standing room, and the event was SOLD OUT.

In Gaza, you dig a trench for a water pipe and uncover a body. You drive a tent peg into the ground and strike human bones. You clear the rubble of a home and recover another body. Gaza itself has become a graveyard. #gaza #genocide #freepalestine

Netflix is laying off 1,000 workers — its largest layoff ever. In 2025, Netflix had a net income of $11 billion (up 26%). Its CEO was paid $53M (255x more than the median employee). And it just raised prices for the second time in just over a year. Corporate greed in a nutshell.

Defence Secretary Wes Streeting says the UK is providing military assistance to Saudi Arabia because Houthis are attacking civilian targets. Israel has been attacking civilian targets in Gaza for 3yrs, & the UK is still arming the IDF.

SOMEBODY EXPLAIN HOW THIS MAN STILL HAS A JOB? Brenden Cuni, the same ICE agent seen on video brandishing a rifle at the scene of the shooting in NY, where officers shot an unarmed man in front of his 5-year-old child, was also filmed kneeling on a pregnant woman in Minneapolis last December.

Mark A. Pearce : Following Mum & Dad (aka: Autumn Path), c.2014 This captures the vivid colors and changing light characteristic of his signature style. His art draws from local estuaries, fells, mountains, and coastal terrain focusing closely on capturing specific multi-colored light effects.

A decade ago, these Jewish scholars broke with Zionism. Time proved them right ❝ An article published in Haaretz 10 years ago by Jewish-American academics Hasia Diner & Marjorie Feld created a firestorm within the U.S. Jewish community. Today, their argument looks stronger than ever ❞ Haaretz

Look at the history, Israel was only created in the 1940s with the completion of the Balfour agreement where Britain, America & France gave the land (which was'nt theirs to give) to the Israeli's to use as a safe haven away from those who wished them harm (Nazi Germany).

Did you know that the United States officially withdrew from the Human Rights Council last Friday. The day after a UN group accused the Administration of multiple war crimes in Iran. Seems like something shithole countries do.

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.
