BREAKING: WOW! A reporter bravely calls Trump out to his face after he falsely accused Iran of bombing the Iranian school that he destroyed: "Why are you the only person saying this?" This is EXACTLY what we need from White House journalists! "Footage shows that a Tomahawk missile likely destroyed that Iranian girls' school. So will the US accept any responsibility?" the first reporter asked. "Well, I haven't seen it and I will say that the Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around, is used by, you know is sold and used by other countries, you know that. And whether it's Iran, who also has some Tomahawks, they wish they had more, but uh... Whether it's Iran or somebody else. The fact that a Tomahawk— A Tomahawk is very generic. It's sold to other countries. But, uh, that's being investigated right now," Trump said. In reality, the export of Tomahawk missiles is tightly controlled by the United States. Only America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the Netherlands currently use the weapon. The suggestion that Iran has access to them is patently absurd. The blatant falsehood from the president set up a knockout punch from another reporter— "Mr. President, you just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a Tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war, but you're the only person in your government saying this," said the reporter. "Even your Defense Secretary wouldn't say that when he was asked, standing over your shoulder on your plane on Saturday. Why are you the only person saying this?" "Because I just don't know enough about it," said Trump. "I think it's something that I was told is under investigation, but Tomahawks are used by others, as you know... Numerous other nations have Tomahawks. They buy them from us, but I will certainly, whatever the report shows, I'm willing to live with that report." Trump is lying because he doesn't want to own up to the fact that he murdered at least 165 people when a U.S. missile struck a school in Minab, Iran as part of a war of choice that he launched on behalf of Israel. The administration scrambled to claim that the horrific incident was caused by an Iranian rocket or missile misfiring, but new footage has emerged proving that it was an American Tomahawk. It's now irrefutable that the United States killed those schoolchildren. This is the kind of evil that never washes out and no matter how much Trump lies about it, this will be a defining pillar of a legacy. He's the president who killed children in a pointless and illegal war and then refused to even admit to it. Please ❤️ and share to demand that the United States take accountability!

BREAKING NEWS 🚨‼️ BREAKING NEWS🚨 Pope Leo XIV rejects Donald Trump's invitation to join the ”Trump Board Of Peace” saying Trump has no right to act as the World's Police. In Pope Leo's Words: 🗣“Mr President, what peace do you want to offer the world when your administration has fueled so many world crîses in Gaza, Ukraine, and broader diplomacy? The laws that were set after World Wãr 2 preventing stronger countries from using force on smaller sovereign counties has been undermined. Trump's board of peace cannot offer peace but will only serve as tool of control and intîmidation. I WILL NOT BE PART OF IT.”

Truly disgusting.

@AndyatAuto @Ascot At this rate @AndyatAuto @RBWM and @MayorRoyalBoro will be able to justify road repairs as a cost saving exercise to avoid damage claims. A criminal threshold can be met if: •There was repeated warning •Clear knowledge of extreme danger •Reckless disregard for safety

This pothole, virtually unavoidable outside ⁦@Ascot⁩ car park 6 cost me an offside front tyre but could cost a motorcyclist their life. Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead you need to fix this immediately

I’ve just arrived in London with a large case (& my cane), and am making my way to Eurostar on the Tube. No fewer than 3 young people have spontaneously offered to carry my case down/upstairs (2 women, 1 man, 3 distinct ethnicities). Such kindness. My day is made. @SarahLudford

Kindness should become the natural way of life Not the exception. The Buddha

If you watch one thing in full today - make it this from @KamaliMelbourne Blatant racism shared online by a sitting President - how on earth did we get here 🤯

BREAKING: Actor Ben Stiller just posted this letter to America: “I love our country. But, like so many of us, I’m concerned about the future of our democracy. We’ve now seen the violent murder of American citizens, killed in cold blood in broad daylight by masked ICE agents. These were our neighbors, their lives ended by armed militias entering our communities with impunity. They were denied due process in life and dignity in death by an administration who refuted the reality the world saw, shifting blame to the victims and creating false narratives about their lives and those fateful days. The Framers of our Constitution believed in checks and balances to power, adding the Bill of Rights specifically to protect individual liberties from potential government overreach. And yet here we are. Innocent people are being harassed, separated from their families, and in some cases killed. Peaceful protest is a constitutionally protected form of free speech that is essential to our existence as a democracy. We have the right to disagree with the actions of the government we elect. The First Amendment also names and protects the freedom of the press. And yet journalists and political commentators have been arrested. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter”. Our elected representatives, from the President and members of Congress to the people they appoint and approve, have a responsibility to act with integrity and honesty. To uphold our ideals and values as a nation. To not lie to us, in the face of the plain facts. We must demand that they represent the expressed will of the people they serve, including removing ICE from our streets. We must demand justice and an end to this lethal chaos. I believe we can reverse this slide toward division and hate. Facing this moment with a return to empathy and love for one another might sound naive, but it’s ultimately what will move our country forward and out of this.”

Kate Winslet paused the interview to comfort a nervous young journalist. This is what true grace looks like 👏

Our highest loyalty doesn’t belong to people or parties. It belongs to principles. If you wouldn’t accept it from the “other side,” you shouldn’t accept it from yours. Integrity is upholding your values even when your own group violates them.

This is Mubinul Hoque. He kept his Liverpool chippy open today to give away free food and drinks to the most vulnerable and people spending Christmas alone. This was for a second year running. What an amazing man. ♥️

Women aren't only underpaid because they end up in less lucrative careers than men. Data on >25M people across 15 countries: Women make less than men in the same job—and that accounts for about half the overall gender pay gap. Equal work deserves equal pay. Full stop.

@SusanDavid_PhD Yes @SusanDavid_PhD and this replication of behaviours can be assisted, encouraged and recognised with appropriately designed systems and processes.

At its core, organizational culture is a person's behaviors, replicated. These become codified in systems and processes, not the other way round. Yes, we can impact culture by addressing systems and processes. But we will never truly change culture unless we change behaviors.

Millionaire CEO Natalie Dawson explains why she fired and terminated the contracts of 2 employees who had an affair with each other while both were involved with partners outside the company “Do you think they are going to have the ethics, morals, and judgment to not be distracted by their own personal ethical situation, and actually focus on doing a good job? That person, in any environment, is a liability.”

@SusanDavid_PhD Thanks for sharing @SusanDavid_PhD Why do you think there is this gap between what we are taught matters and what really matters? And how can this be improved?

We can easily get caught up trying to achieve goals that don’t actually resonate with us, milestones we’re striving to accomplish just because that’s what society tells us to do. Ask yourself what you’re reaching for and why.

We judge people too much by their fleeting opinions—and too little by their consistent actions. Anyone you meet is likely to hold some views you dislike. No one is as bad as their worst idea, and no belief is set in stone. The true test of character is how people treat others.
