Jones: I've been told I'm too young to understand politics. Too young to understand why some neighborhoods get parks while others get police tape… But they never said I was too young to inherit the debt…. too young to inherit the consequences of decisions I never got to make

In other exciting news I signed up with a new UK literary agent last week who loves Everything Will Swallow You, so hopefully things are turning a corner.
Also, 2000+ readers in North America have now bought (via import) this book, which still does not have a publisher in the US or Canada, and which I was told confidently by the British publishing industry had no chance of having an overseas audience due to being "too British".
$600 million for a ballroom, and taxpayers are footing half. Trump is rebuilding Washington for himself, not America.
No corporation is gonna silence our message! ❌👑 Keep helping us amplify #NoKings today so we can drive HISTORIC early vote turnout, and overcome Trump’s election sabotage.
the @nokingscoalition.bsky.social account got restored (yes I checked) just after 3 p.m., but I think it's time to haul that little shit Zuckerberg before congress to explain oh and simultaneously subpoena TikTok A holes for banning @alexgibneyfilm.bsky.social's "Musk" account
❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.
Trump: "When I did the excursion to the beautiful Islamic Republic of Iran and we beat the shit out of them"
The Trump US is practically already engaged in hybrid warfare against Europe and Canada, and coordinating attacks with Russian forces against Ukraine. Europe and Canada, open your eyes! Stop buying F-35s and stop using Starlink. The Trump USA is our enemy😡😡😡
Trump: "Remember Rush Limbaugh? He used to go Barack HUSSEIN Obama. Barack HUSSEIN. He'd scream out Hussein."
Prime Minister Mark Carney mocked the US after supporters erupted in cheers at his promise to reduce Canada's dependence on the US. “Careful. They might think that's election interference. They're a little touchy down there. We're not. We're getting on with it.” #cdnpoli
The US ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra, warns that the US is “monitoring” Canada for alleged election interference. Meanwhile, US officials have reportedly threatened military invasion over trade disputes, while backing separatist campaigns to break apart the country. #cdnpoli
Trump: "Talafreako. He's a vegetarian. My wife corrected me. I was calling it veygan. I know nothing about that. I don't like eating a piece of celery for dinner. I don't like, 'I'll have a piece of lettuce.'"
Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke. P.S. they also hate democracy. As we hand them control of the country. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...
Trump: "They have the transgender mutilization of your child. Timmy goes out, goes to school, comes back four days later as Sarah. It's true! I think we have five or six states where they can actually just do that, and they do it. They're sick people."
Trump: "I don't need to do this. I already won. Somebody said 'good luck with the election.' I said, 'No, I already won.' I don't need to do this."
This Clacton resident summed it up perfectly: being part of the EU helped keep us safe. It's time to restore our EU membership.
🚨🚨🚨 Meta just took down the No Kings instagram page with 3000 events happening around the country today
Trump: "If the Republicans win, the Department of War will be investing $100 million in the pharmaceutical company Anthea to revitalize a gigantic drug manufacturing facility in Winchester, Kentucky"

Trump: "You know how much money we're taking out of Venezuela? Hundreds of billions of dollars we're taking out of Venezuela"
Trump: "I said, 'Let's go and join the president for lunch at Mar-a-Lago and we'll buy one hamburger and a small dessert. That'll take up about $5,000.'"
Nope! Not even close. This week’s Just for Skeets and Giggles is out! Have a great weekend. statuskuo.substack.com/p/just-for-s...

Lincoln: “This nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom” Kennedy: “Ask not what your country can do for you” Reagan: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” Trump: "I examined his ass"
Trump on Jon Husted: "I examined his ass"
“Important update: Today at approximately 1:30 PM Eastern time the main accounts for the No Kings coalition (@nokingscoalition) on Instagram were frozen and pulled down. The admins have lost access to the account. We are unable to login. This happened at the peak of our national day of action.”
Trump’s rally speeches have gotten a lot more ass focused lately. Just a lot of talk about eyeballing asses and whatnot.

One widely loathed, ketamine-addicted, white-supremacist billionaire can single-handedly keep a failing political party afloat, through the brute force of money. Excellent system we've set up here.
