Trump admits his "working class" moments for the cameras were all staged. He calls the photo ops "a little bit tacky" and "embarrassing” - which is ironic since Trump is so tacky and embarrassing all the time. All the rich do is lie to workers. That’s America.

Just as an FYI, there are 7 Republican Senate seats in play.
Even if we took all 7, Democrats would not have enough votes to remove lardass if impeached. Need 67 votes, would only have 54.
#Autism awareness month! Let me tell you how it went 40+ years ago when I was diagnosed.
Quiet meant stupid. It meant you didn't understand or perceive around you. That's why my father thought I needed to be euthanized: I wasn't functional.
People still think that, but the science is better now. 🧵

Betrayal?? Brexit was the greatest betrayal of this country ever, bar none.
Israel has killed over 38,000 women and girls in Gaza, according to the U.N. Another reminder the war on Gaza is about collective punishment not self defense.

It's a good night to read this excellent piece, on the Orban regime's network of financial support for the nationalist right in Britain.
For many on the radical right, the tills are about to stop ringing.

This morning I’ve seen Olly Robbins’s appearance before the select committee described as ‘box office’, while a commentator flagged up another key political moment with the words ‘bring the popcorn’.
That’s one of our main problems right there.
Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) * ... @magyarpeterMP Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then - on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office.
Hungary’s Péter Magyar issues an ultimatum.

UK.
Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
📊 Zelensky: Russia has big problems with the economy. A budget deficit of $100 billion cannot be covered by a short war in the Middle East. So far, they have covered only 10%, no more.
The war in Iran strengthens the “Russians”, depletes the Americans and Europe’s energy reserves.
“Farage rarely turns up to do his actual job. Yet he finds time to jet off around the world on his donor’s private plane and trouser half a million quid while families struggle. Reform are not on your side. They’re just in it for themselves”
It’s so obvious, it hurts.
