jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The point of this is to then blame the no-diesel situation on Ukraine destroying Russian refinery capacity. Nothing to do with some idiot causing the Strait of Hormuz to be closed. 010 1

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 01/10/2026That's completely unbelievable. The notion that Trump would pay for anything I mean. I bet they all got stiffed for their transport and accommodation costs. 100 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Usually love your column but Northern Ireland did NOT "win its independence from the Republic" with the signing of the GFA. That's like something Trump would come out with. Please consider rewriting it... 150 5
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Thanks for that. An obesity drug, rather than (directly) a longevity drug. Patient is not confirmed to be Trump, though it does seem very likely. And no-one else has access because the drug's not approved. I can well believe that Trump would be stupid enough to demand access to an untested drug. 111 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 22/06/2026It's worse than that. The original 52-48 counts only those who voted, so excludes all the "don't knows" from this poll. If only the yes/no answers are used from this poll, the comparable percentages figure is 62-38. "A small majority" is disingenuous. 60-40 is sometimes considered a supermajority. 030 3
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 02/06/2026I'm feeling pure cold rage directed at Farage. Does that count? 020 2
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 30/05/2026The difference being that Morgan McSweeney genuinely did have his phone stolen. Anyway, we don't even know yet what excuse Farage will have for being unable to provide his phone 100 1

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Unfortunately, that would make you a nazi. I am afraid people who are not nazis have more civilised standards of behaviour.

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 11/01/2026Partly because most of the US press is shit. Partly because those parts of the US press that are commendably not shit are no longer allowed into the White House press briefings. This regime is not accountable to an independent press. 000 0
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 11/01/2026Venezuela is under US control? When did that happen? (I did hear something about the Venezuelan president being abducted, but also that the deputy just took over from him.) 060 6

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026I guess a lot of MAGA may be just accepting what the regime are saying without bothering to look at the videos themselves. You couldn't look at them and say in good faith that the shooting was anything other than cold blooded murder. Maybe they aren't speaking in good faith? Also a possibility. 010 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026I think they're more likely to back him to the hilt with their lies, and pardon him if he's convicted. If they throw him under the bus, the rest of the ICE goons will be too scared to murder civilians who don't do what they're told. That's the last thing the regime wants. 110 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Good point. Can't believe this Ross hasn't been arrested and charged yet. That might make the thugs think twice 3705 70
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026I'm not getting that vibe to be honest. Not if it's Rochelle Bilal's decision to make at any rate. This woman is calling ICE and the felon out for what they truly are. 0541 54
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Not sure about that. If Donald throws this one under the bus, the rest might think twice before murdering unarmed civilians on camera. Not what Donald wants at all. As you say, it's always about him. I think he'll just continue to tell us we didn't see what we saw. Like Jan 6th was "peaceful". 030 3
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 10/01/2026They don't mind the word "lies" when it's an opinion piece rather than a news piece: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...theguardian.comFrom Caracas to Minneapolis, the threat is the same – an American president ruling like a global emperor | Jonathan FreedlandTrump’s admission that he recognises no constraint outside his own morality was a horrifying moment of truth, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland 020 2
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Yes. It occurs to me that the regime will be seeking a new outrage as soon as possible, to try and get the murder of Renee Good off the front page. They're getting nowhere trying to pretend she was a terrorist. Everyone can see that she was entirely blameless. 100 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Because they're a professional paper of record. "Lies" is an emotive word and implies deliberate intent to deceive. The Guardian have no evidence of the liars' states of mind, so won't use the word. "Untruths" is a completely factual neutral word. *I* know they are liars, but I'm not a journalist. 080 8
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/01/2026No questions about the release of the Trumpstein files? 030 3
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/01/2026You're probably right. But one thing about Trump: he's a real sucker for flattery and ego-stroking - and he *really* wants that Nobel prize. And I'd hope she doesn't just 'give'. To quote Groucho Marx, "he may look like an idiot and act like an idiot, but don't be fooled. He really is an idiot." 1112 11
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 09/01/2026That's hard. I imagine it means an enormous amount to her. But if she can use it as leverage on Trump to help the people of Venezuela... well, it's only a piece of metal at the end of the day. Shows why she fully deserves the prize and Trump does not, and will never understand why he does not. 240 4
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 27/12/2025I wouldn't agree. This is what a government _should_ be doing: make society as a whole provide for the poorest. The shameful part is that you have a system that has allowed some people to grab such an obscenely large share of the society's wealth that you now demand they provide charity... 031 3
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 08/12/2025I thought election overspending was a criminal offence? If convicted of a criminal offence leading to imprisonment, an MP can be subject to a recall petition. Unlikely to happen in this case, I agree. I think there's a time limit on the prosecution anyway, so it might not even lead to a fine. 110 1

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 07/12/2025In the old days that would have been true, but the information environment is so poisoned now. Deliver for the British people and it used to be just the Mail, the Express and the Telegraph making sure no-one heard about it. Now you have Twitter, Facebook and to some extent the BBC, doing that too. 0111 11

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 03/12/2025They can't hide it now - but I'm not so sure about the capacity of the press to ignore it. 162 6
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 04/11/2025I think this is my favourite account on Bluesky 010 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 02/10/2025Because I understand the difference between a "price" and a "price cap"? I can't even find a source for your original claim that "Labour are claiming that bills have reduced by £150 under their watch". Where have Labour claimed that? 000 0
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 01/10/2025So, if this post is accurate, Labour claim to have reduced bills. You say this is a "lie" as the price cap has increased. But those are different things. It's quite possible for the price cap to go up while bills drop. Subtract 1568 apples from 1755 oranges, and yes the answer will be nonsense. 140 4
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 11/08/2025If the evidence is there, they should be prosecuted. I don't care who gets found out, and I only see MAGA claiming 'not Bill Clinton'. Unfortunately, Trump is hiding the evidence. Why is that I wonder? Is he trying to protect Clinton do you think? 120 2
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 06/08/2025You're right that his base won't vote Democrat, but if they lose faith in Trump they are likely to return to being politically apathetic and just not vote at all. 110 1
jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Good to see him losing. Wish he didn't have the sole authority to launch the world's biggest stockpile of nuclear weapons though. 100 1

jonahsun.bsky.social @jonahsun.bsky.social · 19/06/2025This is misleading. The Guardian article is quite clear that there is no suggestion that the Trump regime is actually considering the use of a tactical nuke. It's just that the assessment is that that would be the only way to destroy the site. 020 2
