So the world's richest man spends a fortune backing Trump and is given the go-ahead to... -Run an "efficiency" agency despite having billions in govt contracts -Replace civil servants with his own cronies -Gain access to sensitive Treasury payment systems See the problem?

The real story after the tariffs are imposed is to watch who Trump gives waivers to, and what they did to get them.

It’s been a while. I’m here in London, my home. I just have to remember that we are safe. For now. But the time is ticking. 2029 is not far. And unlike in the US, over here an election can be called early. The bad actors have their eyes on all of us. ALL OF US.

It’s been a few days… Apparently Gen Z males show more support for Trump (US) and Farage (UK). As a Gen Z male, this baffles me. But maybe now people who look for balanced, trustworthy sources and don’t fall for misinformation on social media, are in the minority…

They all walk free now. Every single one of them. It’s sick.

@politicsgirl.bsky.social Imma take a leaf out of your book and just rant. 🧵 I don’t know why I’m so angry. I’m in the UK. My family asks me why I care so much. But what happens in the US affects us all. The whole world, but we have no say. Thought it couldn’t get worse then I saw this. (1/4)

This makes me sick. There is a preacher screaming into the microphone to bless 🍊, screaming and crying and smiling widely as if possessed by some spirit.

In this moment, it should be Beyoncé singing Freedom. That’s what it should be.

I can see Biden-Harris just sitting there while the others give a standing ovation. Harris has her hands crossed, her signature sarcastic look on her face. As Trump talks about common sense, Biden visibly has to stop himself from bursting out laughing. This is the kind of pettiness I’m here for…

They actually did it. They actually swore him in. Part of me couldn’t believe it. And Kamala just sat there. Smiling. Clapping. She must be in a world of pain. #inauguration

So today is the day. Don’t know whether to watch or not. They say don’t watch it, but I couldn’t miss out on the ironic humor of it all. I guess laughing at him makes it easier. But as Ezra Klein so brilliantly said, they think all attention is good attention, so…? #inauguration

I just realized. He said he’d be a dictator on day one. That day is almost here. That day has almost come. To all my friends in the #USA, who didn’t want this day to come, didn’t vote for it, and are dreading it, here’s a British college student for moral support. Do reach out :-) #inauguration

I just saw the @scifri.bsky.social account and until now I thought that show (and Ira Flatow) were just out of #tbbt. I didn’t know they were real! Well… TIL.

So over here in the UK we’ve been watching from the sidelines… luckily there’s still time till the next election but #Musk is trying to buy us out too. I’m worried about the #misinformation being spread on every place where we’ve been communicating… (1/3)

So I’ve decided that as a citizen of the UK and the world, how things are run is my business just like everyone else’sAnd . So I’m gonna be talking #politics. First opinion, Trump being name dropped on the #tiktok ban screen and the “we’re back” message gives me icky “dear leader” vibes

I like the skeumorphism of the Bluesky icon. Reminds me of better days.
