I've reported a number of white supremacist, blatantly racist accounts that openly admire Hitler to Twitter/X over the last few days. Every report has been rejected on the basis the accounts don't break hate rules for the platform. What a cesspit this place has become.

Over the last year too many people who are dear to me have been diagnosed with cancer.
I want to show them how much I care, but also do something practical, so I'm taking on a 26-mile Mighty Hike along the Giant's Causeway to raise money for Macmillan. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

โ€œNot only is Senator Ted Cruz podcasting habit weirdโ€”and I think a little insulting to the 30 million Texans he represents presumably full timeโ€”it also appears to be a serious ethical and campaign finance scandal in the making,โ€

SCOOP: Looks like Trump has been using a GOP compliance firm as a go-between to pay lawyers, allowing him to keep some of the attorneys heโ€™s paying hidden from the public. Itโ€™s an $8 million mysteryโ€”and experts say itโ€™s probably illegal. Me The Daily Beast

This is your daily reminder that the ONLY reason Trump still has any political power today is because McConnell himself refused to whip votes (or himself vote) to convict Trump at his impeachment trial. If McConnell is looking for the culprit, he might want to consult a mirror.

Joe Biden getting the endorsement of every living member of the Kennedy family while running against Trump-spoiler RFK Jr is a top-tier political flex that deserves more attention.

Between 1978 and 2022:

-Worker pay grew by 15%

-Top exec pay jumped by 1,209%

Major US CEOs are now paid 344 times more than their typical employees.

When I say corporate CEOs are exploiting labor, this is what I mean.

Not falling for it Sadiq Khan. For one thing your lead is bigger now you are up against a useless Tory candidate. But in addition you say nothing about changing the voting system so that I do not have to vote tactically again in the future. You want my vote for nothing in return.

If he is thinking about it I wonder what he thinks about his life long opposition to Proportional Representation? Because under the current voting system his party stands no chance, and will only help the Tories by splitting the Labour vote.

Please put this to bed @SimonJamesJupp.

Can you assure us that you or your campaign team are not behind this?

Will you call out the person behind this deception?

The Liberal Democrats have a long-standing policy to block arms exports to those countries and territories listed as human rights priorities by Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office - which includes Israel. The UK Govt must suspend arms exports to Israel.

.@Libdems have called for a presumption of denial to arms to Israel since 2021. Applies to any country on the FCDO High Priority Human Rights list. Our Government should be ashamed that it continues to sell arms in these circumstances.

This is such horrific news. Brave aid workers killed as they get desperately needed food into Gaza. It should never happen.

It is essential that humanitarian aid gets to the millions who need it, safely. We urgently need an immediate bilateral ceasefire.

So Fani Willis was basically put on trial for $3500 of vacation expenses.

But Clarence Thomas likely received MILLIONS of dollars in free travel.

Where's the trial for Thomas?
