As Trump's war on Iran continues, reminder that his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.
War gives dictators like Trump (and his family) more power and more wealth.
The candidate who gets the most votes in a presidential election should become the next president.
Anything else is not democratic.
You say we live in a republic, not a democracy? Ok, fine, whatever. I believe in democracy and think it gives us the best chance of success for all.
Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...
A picture of a rather dilapidated copy of "The picture of Dorian Gray" There is visible water damage to the cover and the plastic cover is yellowing. Obviously, not evident from the picture but there is a truly foul musty smell emanating from it!
Last week, a gentleman returned this rather dilapidated copy of this famous book to us after 50 years. He had found it in his attic!
Presumably this means there is a pristine copy somewhere in our libraries....
This "president" has said nothing-- NOTHING-- about eight kids killed in a mass shooting in Louisiana today. Ages range from 1 year to 14 years. Children.
And they rate not a single comment.
I detest that bucket of filth and the way he's lowered the bar for all.

Happy 89th Birthday George Takei!
George Takei, born on April 20, 1937, in Los Angeles, California, is an actor, activist, and social media phenomenon who has lived one of the most remarkable lives in American entertainment.
As a child, Takei and his family were forcibly relocated to Japanese...
There’s definitely a Trump reference in this somewhere.
The television series The Last Alaskans was filmed in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. This series followed the lives of people (holding government permits) who lived off the land in the refuge. It’s currently streaming on HBO MAX & Discovery Channel. Pure & unpolluted. Leave it alone!
Governor Tim Walz — "We are sick of this. A weak, reckless, Idiotic president just threw us into a war nobody asked for. No threat existed. No objectives were set. No exit plan exists. This is pure fascism." #cdnpoli
Well this is interesting: New study from Denmark shows that Tylenol is not linked to autism
Hope that everyone in the 🍊🤡 administration reads this!!!

The new report on FBI Director Kash Patel cites more than TWO DOZEN sources describing his leadership as a “management failure” and national security risk.
The White House and DOJ didn’t deny the allegations, but deflected.
Patel was the only one who issued a direct rebuttal.
That speaks volumes.

Beautiful Brussels Belgium 🇧🇪 the Flower Carpet
Reform candidate for Dundee - Arthur Keith - was selected to represent the party despite calling Farage "deplorable" and his team "a complete set of c*nts" just last year.

Getting rid of Keir Starmer would be a very bad idea.
IDF soldier in Lebanon taking an axe to the head of a statue of Jesus.
Let's see how American Christians who devoutly support Israel react to that.
Despite the media desperate to destabilise a Labour govt they have NOTHING on which to do that .Starmer was NOT told, so now they say yea but he should not have appointed him.. except the very SAME media was praising the appointment and opposition parties had no complaints then ! Don’t let them win!
You may disagree, but if the heads of our military don’t trust Trump to be in the Situation Room because he’s erratic, unfit, or dangerous…
HE SHOULD NOT BE PRESIDENT!
Simple as that. 😎✨
That a Labour government is held to a far higher standard than a Tory one is as disgraceful in 2026 as it was in 1924.
If this man had murdered eight strangers the story would lead every news outlet. But because they are his children, it's "family violence," "domestic violence" -- undeserving of the same attention. Even though this violence is much more common

10 children were shot today in Shreveport, LA and 8 of them died. The police chief just doesn’t know how something like this could ever happen. But I think he knows exactly how something like this could happen and it has to do with the > 393 million guns in this country w/ very little regulation.
David Attenborough Fan. The green vine snake is a serpent with a menacing stare. Its eyes seem to know your secrets and its silence is more terryfing than its venom. This snake doesnt chase it waits watching and judging making it the deadliest creature in the forest

But Keir Starmer ….
The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.
The Onion has successfully bought InfoWars. Happy 4/20. 😂
mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.
In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.
This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

I'm always skeptical of BBC-bashing, but BBC News website hasn't reported on the Tice tax scandal since 12 April, when the headline was "Tice £91,000 tax row is 'minor administrative error', party claims".
