A dark and stormy night, alright. Can the not help the poor woman at the front right? She’s got herself stuck inside a tuba.
A stormy and cold night, but sending a strong message. People are rightly angry at the behaviour of those who have thumbed their nose at law and have defied the decisions of the parades commission, the courts and the PSNI. We are all deeply proud of our traditions and give them our absolute support- we have been deeply hurt and angered by the abuse and hatred our traditions, identity and culture has had to endure.
Well done to all the bands and those who participated, and in such a dignified way. The lawful behaviour of the Orange and all those who support them is in stark contrast to those who opposed and oppose them.
Most of the people pictured here are about the same age as the Troubles. Did they learn nothing?
Parade underway in Portadown. Thousands have turned up in support of local Orangemen who want to march along the Garvaghy Road. @UTVNews

Turns out, Elon Musk’s pimply minions didn’t actually want to cut government spending. They wanted to get a piece of it for themselves. trib.al/ND5lsX5

‼️ The Trump administration is ending temporary Medicare Part D prescription drug insurer subsidies cutting roughly $9.8 billion used to stabilize drug plan premiums.
This will force millions of seniors and disabled to face higher out-of-pocket prescription drug costs.

There it is. Elon Musk admits it.
“That loophole was closed last week.”
In a deranged post on X, Musk openly acknowledges that SpaceX recently restricted Ukraine’s ability to use Starlink.
He then declares that Ukraine’s front line would “collapse immediately” if Starlink were turned off, insists that’s “NOT a threat,” and tells his critics to “burn in hell.”

Trump was never sending Kushner and Witkoff to broker peace. He was having those two crooks sell our Alaskan public land and our Alaskan natural resources to the fucking Russians as if it were his.

This is how the country lads all danced at The Point Inn in Inishowen in the 1980’s. He even has the same big white shirt collar.

Remember when Trump met Putin in Alaska and said in a faux mistake/trial balloon that he was going to Russia?

He destroyed American soft power, disbanded human intelligence, and caused hundreds of thousands of children to die from starvation and disease.

A huge and largely peaceful protest so far in Paris. People tell me they are there to protest about schools, against the government and Macron, about the cost of living, and for the right to protest itself. Those I spoke to were blasé last week’s violence.

One of the world’s largest private equity firms just issued a report concluding: “Despite massive investments and widespread hype around artificial intelligence, the technology has delivered zero financial payoff to corporate America outside of tech.”
The rot runs very deep.

We are literally entering a dystopian timeline. 😤
We have all the resources and money to protect the remaining forests worldwide, yet rich companies/people are deciding to finish them all off for DATA CENTRES! 🤦🏻♂️🤬
Google illegally cleared an estimated 250,000 trees across 330 hectares of forest in Muhos, northern Finland, to prepare for a new AI data center before completing mandatory environmental impact assessments
And another 150,000 trees felled at Otanmäki

I had to read two stories this week about the Republican Party or its affiliates hiring hitmen.
One was by @AlJazeera and was a brilliant undercover sting. The other was by @VanityFair and focused on Jared Kushner.
US @GOP politics is beginning to look more like Russian politics.
