Still here for it guys, keep pulling those straws... #FIFA #Outfantino

I don't think the Republicans' pure bullshitting with a straight face is an act. It reeks of genuine Koreshean cult business to me.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo agoSen. Tim Scott: "President Trump has done something no other president in the history of our country said yes to, which is complying to the ethics strategy and standard for all elected officials. We've never had a president ever say yes to that." 🙃
Superb piece of investigative journalism, as expected from @bylinetimes.bsky.social So many dots connected. A telling silence from Cam. Hope you're pushing this as a deterrent @ox.ac.uk , might help a little if you're struggling for cash. Where do uni's gazillions of pounds go btw? Mismanaged much

Sarah Storey's a phenomenal pundit. Taking us right behind the curtain of cycling, with heaps of science, physiology, techniques and sick bucket knowledge + charisma 🙌🏻🤌🏻 #CommonwealthGames
Our criteria for success are disastrously skewed. In my view, a successful person is one who does more good than harm, on any scale. On this measure, most billionaires are massive failures, while humble folk in my neighbourhood who look after other people are highly successful.

It's fascinating to watch commentators who sat completely silently for a decade as the Conservative Government changed its leader four times in a row mid-term, now suddenly discover such a keen interest in the concepts of 'mandates' and 'legitimacy'
This is the only 'US war on Iran' headline across the whole front page of the BBC News app right now, and it's not near the top. That's pretty wild, considering how much is going on. Thank F for @meidastouch.com 🙌🏻
For some reason our media are not reporting this, those that cover the story focus on damages - that’s mis or dis reporting in my view - the story here is a new duty of fairness on the press, enforceable in law - and it will protect everyone in our country.
Anybody else's teeth itch when they hear Trump or associates say "...slash" , "...gash" or "...gusher" ?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoTrump: "We drained the beautiful 'Reflecting Pool' today in order to fix the scars and damage that was done by the Vandals 2 weeks ago. We wanted to wait until after July 4. The slashes were 300 yards long, and the floor of the pool was cut and then pulled upward, with great force, by these thugs."
Worth delving into the thread, funny

We have to ask ourselves how we made British (and American!) politics the go-to career for spivs, chancers, hedge fund speculators, money launderers, crypto criminals, anti-vaxx scammers, Nazis, sex trafficking manosphere influencers and of course the whole Johnson coterie of gropers and stalkers
We're living in a World where Count Binface's pledges, demeanor and appearance are heaps more legitimate, genuine and attractive than the US President's Every second of every hour, until something gives, which it will.
Rutte behaves like a lovestruck goon when he's around the obscene tangerine tyrant. If it's not love, the bribes and / or kompromat must be heavyweight.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoholy shit -- Mark Rutte says Trump is "right" about Greenland "When it comes to defense of the arctic, he absolutely was right, because there is a huge risk that Russia and China will gain more and more access to the arctic"
Wouldn't mind Zelenskyy taking out the obscene tangerine tyrant, with a sharpened card, that someone thought he didn't have.
Arthur Fery reminds me a little of Andre 'one. more. shot.' Agassi. Nuggety af #Wimbledon
Jesus. Seriously hope those nuclear codes are accompanied by easily understood pictures, or at least clear descriptions, like 'big bang', 'bigger bang' 'don't touch this bang Donald!'
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoTrump repeatedly refers to Zelenskyy as "President Putin"
In politics, we’re torn between ideals and practicalities, aspirations and realities, the world as we want it, and as we find it But one day a manifesto comes along that reconciles both in every pledge. A rare moment of clarity and hope
I know it's a contentious debate, but I'd argue Messi is the best Lionel ever. Richie is probably his closest contender, but I reckon his Greatest Hits LP needed some filler. Not World Class #WC26 #Argentina #Lionels #Messi #Richie
