More of this from 🇬🇧 politicians please. Why does it take an 🇺🇸 politician to do this? Though doubtless most of our media will focus with “Nigel Farage spoke out against the blah blah in DC today … and now we ask another talking head about the rise and rise of Reform …
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Nigel Farage looks uncomfortable as Jamie Raskin uses his opening statement to absolutely demolish him

Loretta was a supremely talented actor. She deserved all her 10 EMMY nominations and her 2 wins. But more than acting her part, she created it. She worked hard In showing the writing staff how they could turn the character from a one joke sexist stereotype into a real person -- with real feelings and ambitions. We celebrated the day the script came out listing her character not as Hot Lips, but as Margaret. Loretta made the most of her time here.

🌟Chapter 2 Education and its discontents worth a read. Anyone who’s worked in post-industrial mainly while communities will relate to the gap between aspiration and expectation. A fascinating, nuanced read with scary data about ed attainment in poor white areas.

Canada Hates Trump
Canada Hates Trump@AntiTrumpCanada·
Canada elected a guy with a PhD in Economics from Oxford University. Mexico elected a woman with a PhD in Energy Engineering. The USA elected a 2X impeached conman who bankrupted 4 casinos & has 34 felony convictions. Mexico and Canada really do border on stupidity.

Russia invaded Ukraine based on 4 assumptions; 1. His Army was invincible - It wasn't.2. The Ukrainians wouldn't fight - how wrong he was. 3. The International community would fragment - it didn't.4. Ukrainian people would welcome Russia - they didn't 1/6 His only hope is to now show that mass murder and fake news is the winning ingredient. We can not allow this to happen. 2/6 In early 1940's the America First Committee (sound familiar?) and Senator Lindbergh didn't believe Britain could resist Hitler & wanted to turn their back on Europe. He was wrong then & Trump is wrong now. Ukrainians have fought like Lions & shed blood for all our freedoms. 3/6 Contrary to lazy commentary Putin is not in a strong position. His economy is a year away from a crash, he has lost over 800k soldiers and his Army's equipment is decimated. Russia is not some world super power, the US and Europe dwarf it in nearly every measure. 4/6 It is a gangster state with a gangster leader. The West needs to send a clear message to the Kremlin that we aren't going to abandon Ukraine & we will stick with them as long as it takes for Russia to fail in it's illegal invasions. 5/6

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy. Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.
