The xenophobic and ignorant ramblings of an irrelevant empire fetishist. No facts No history The limbic appeal to the gallery of embiciles. The unexamined opinions of an unquestioning bigot..
God, how I love this man. What a gem. “I’d rather hear Hamas sing then hear Irish politicians talking about Jews. They have no damn right.”

Hey GOP, this is who you are:
Trump: I did not marry my sister. I had two lovely; I have one left. Elizabeth. She's great. But I never proposed to them. They’re beautiful, but I was never—I was never particularly attracted to either of them.

re-upping this in light of this new @ProbPublica expose: propublica.org/article/carbo…
OF COURSE geoengineering proselytizer David Keith (see e.g. my @thehill op-ed w/ @coralsncaves: thehill.com/opinion/energy-e…) is on Peter Thiel's list (see: xitter.gq/davetroy/status/206766…).

The Limbic Historians are active. Beware..
Irish were Hitler lovers & prevented the Royal navy from using ports in the wars - something stinks in Ireland.

The Jonestown analogy is so good. People sipping the poison right in front of him. Give this man a Pulitzer.
Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

Yes Mr Blair: Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere need an end to genocide, Israel's militarised colonisation and apartheid. They need respect for Intl Law and justice. They also need no more advice from those who have profited from their misery for too long. Be kind. Step aside
“There is talk of ‘Free Palestine’, but for Palestinians living in Gaza, they don’t need a slogan; they need a solution,” said former UK Prime Minister and founding member of US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace, Tony Blair.

He is now a fossil fuel propaganda bot (that glitches out frequently)

Congratulations on @HKane for winning the men’s Ballon D’or. Not only is he a great footballer, but he’s also a very positive role model in his conduct both on & off the field.

We should continue re-posting this every day until this nightmare is over.
I believe this will be considered one of the most important videos in US history from this time.

To be a woman in Trump’s frat boy America must be unimaginably difficult. Women of all ages demeaned and traduced by the worst of mediocre men. Yet look at how amazing she is. In defiance of all of it she’s speaking truth to power 💜

Tom Watson spent years sabotaging Labour as deputy leader, then stepped away from politics, joined a gambling firm, apparently decided it wasn't evil enough for him and went to work for Palantir. Utterly vile.
Nobody wants to buy a service they can’t walk away from. Palantir’s critics have long claimed we ‘lock in’ our customers. We don’t. This short film explains why. It’s the first in a series on the gap between the rhetoric about Palantir and the work we actually do.

It is beyond ridiculous that this man is still a life peer and retains the Labour whip.

Three paragraphs when two words would have done. "Revolving door."
Mr Polanski, I know you have a reputation for being scrupulous about checking your facts, but you’ve missed an important detail. My contract requires me to remain on leave from the Lords, surrender my parliamentary pass and forgo all access and voting rights for the duration of my employment at Palantir. I do not, therefore, take any whip. I fear this makes me rather less useful to the whips’ office than you imply.
