I’m an English Aussie with a social conscious. Recently retired and enjoying spending time with my dog and cat and painting. Fell in love with West Wing all those years ago and became obsessed with USA politics in 2015.

Reminder: Pro-authoritarian billionaire Robert Kraft's wife Dana Blumberg is among the Trump-appointed members of the Kennedy Center Board who voted to put Mobster Trump's name on the memorial & to also shut it down. Robert Kraft & Dana Blumberg are who Ed Sheeran CHOOSES to associate himself with.

Ain't this a kick in the nuts. Cubans didn't want to support the Black lady, so they voted for the guy that's deporting them to Africa. Welcome to the Motherland. Somebody cue that song.🎵 🤣 *sips*☕️ #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory youtube.com/shorts/jvfMP...

If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

Hunter Biden has officially run out of f*cks to give and I LOVE IT! 🔥#SheShed
Graphic featuring Hunter Biden on the left against a dark blue background. Large text reads, “Trump and his cronies are really good at accusing people of the very things that they are doing.” Additional text quotes Biden criticizing “traditional values,” “America First,” and “family values” figures, referencing Tucker and Candace. The bottom reads “Hunter Biden Unfiltered,” with a small SheShed logo in the upper right.

Trump is now threatening to report NBC’s Kristen Welker to the FCC for “rebuke or punishment” because she said his endorsements have had “mixed results.” He then calls on FCC Chair Brendan Carr to “take this Threat to our Country very seriously.” Truly psychotic and anti-American.
