188 Caribbean + Latin American people extrajudicially murdered by US airstrikes against boats in the region. SOUTHCOM announced that yesterday (May 4) it murdered 2 people in the Caribbean Sea. <188 given US revelation of a murder count in new sanctions statement on Cuba>

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: "If you have a US military base, you're not a sovereign country."

I agree that the statue should be taken down. If we are serious about reparations, we need to stop glorifying these colonizers.

Ahh the infinite money extraction tool from tax payers to rich cronies.. The low grade asphalt being used by low skilled labourers with zero accountability.. Rinse and repeat

i don’t trust anyone who refers to black ppl as “blacks” 😩

On my daily commute, there is no road that I routinely drive on that is not riddled with craters. Just a reminder that about a year or so ago, our government wasted money on what was obviously a massive cosmetic road patching initiative, in an effort to keep the JLP in power.

o império britânico fez uma guerra pelo direito de vender ópio dentro da China o comércio de ópio era a commodity mais lucrativa do Império no século XIX. Eles viciaram mais de 30 milhões de chineses em 1906. então o primeiro narcoestado da História foi o império britânico

BREAKING: According to a leaked CIA report, China is engaged in a massive conspiracy to make everything cheaper and more affordable.

@mikey_esquire A guy at my gym bought a T2 about a month ago. He used to drive a Grand Vitara before that. I asked him about the T2 gas mileage and he says it's about the same as the Vitara. 🤷 He also said the T2 handles the bad roads much better than the Vitara.

Jetour T2 owners. How is the gas mileage ??? How has ownership been generally? You may be helping me to make a future purchase decision

@GeeLuigi @mikey_esquire That's not bad. I drive a mid-size pick up truck and I'm at about 16L/100km city. I fill up once a week.

@mikey_esquire My gas last two weeks. Mah ave 12.8 l/100km city driving. Kits easy fi get - Chinese car so ali express. No issues with servicing. Tackled all terrains ive come across. No parts issues as yet. Still finding out tech features after over a year.

To suggest that the source of the traffic problem is "too many cars" is akin to blaming the annual water shortage on "too much bathing and drinking of water". Infrastructure and systems must meet demand otherwise it obstructs economic growth.

europeans think a "civilizational fumble" is when you don't enslave and colonize the entire world

China built a $20 billion oil refinery in Nigeria, and Europe is furious. Nigeria, one of Africa's largest oil producers, had no refinery. For decades, it exported crude and imported gasoline at markup. China's Dangote Oil Refinery in Lagos changed that. Now Nigeria is exporting refined gasoline instead of just raw crude. The refinery is operating at 94% of its 650,000-barrel-per-day capacity, meeting domestic demand with surplus shipped abroad. In March, Nigeria exported approximately 44,000 barrels of gasoline per day. A single shipment of 317,000 barrels reached Mozambique—the first delivery to East Africa. Production is projected to reach 1.4 million barrels per day within three years, making it Africa's largest refinery. For decades, Western oil majors kept Nigeria dependent while extracting crude, refining it abroad, and selling it back at a premium. China built the infrastructure Europe refused to. Now Nigeria controls its own energy supply chain, and European refiners are losing a captive market. This is what economic sovereignty looks like. This shouldn’t surprise any of our subs, we covered this story back in November on DD Geopolitics.

@JamaicaObserver @JervisCapital Every 3 months we get an announcement like this. 😂😂😂

Jamaica is expected to see a significant increase in road work activity over the next six months. That’s according to minister with responsibility for works Robert Morgan who last Thursday told the Jamaica Observer that in addition to activity under the Shared Prosperity through Accelerated Improvement to our Road Network (SPARK) programme other road works are planned. jamaicaobserver.com/2026/05/03/maj…

Politicians are not celebrities. They are public servants and they’ve forgotten their place.

Colonial addicts don't understand why Spain and Portugal went off to rape half the planet in the 1500s. It's because (in all honesty) they were not nearly as economically self-sufficient as Ming dynasty China was. The same was also true for Songhai, which was as big as Western Europe. They didn't rush off to colonize Portugal because--they didn't need to. Oyo Kingdom? Same. Benin? Same. Europe only became as huge as it did because of international piracy, and Europeans became pirates because they didn't have shit beforehand.

Lmao

Y’all put white people on a pedestal and are surprised when y’all come across Black people who weren’t raised like that.
