I’d given up hope of finding any this winter. Pleurotus ostreatus (Oyster mushrooms) yesterday.
Gosh - Farage suggesting Starmer has poor judgement.
When will the media look at Farage?
Obviously the PM should be held to a higher standard, but the would-be king needs to be scrutinised.

▪️Right now, several Tu-95MS aircraft have taken off from the Far East and are heading to the Engels airfield to be equipped with cruise missiles;
Trump is suing the U.S. government for up to $10 billion, claims he’s already “won a lot of money,” then plays it off as no big deal because he’ll donate it, before pivoting to phantom “$19 billion” fraud in Minnesota. This is not normal.

So absurd — with all the corruption on the supreme court, @MarshaBlackburn wants Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson investigated for going to the Grammys, because they said mean stuff about her puppet master’s goons

Despite judge’s order, ICE sent an immigrant to Mexico instead of back to Minnesota — The Minnesota Star Tribune
The government says the undocumented immigrant voluntarily left the U.S. His attorney is seeking a contempt of court finding as the federal courts remain overwhelmed by immigration cases.
A very welcome defeat for the monstrous effort to treat Palestine solidarity as a major crime and stifle it in the process. Starmer's 'Labour' government deserves nothing but the deepest contempt and the utmost hostility.

More back-sliding on climate: Carney is eliminating the Electric Vehicle Availability Standard that would have mandated 100% EVs by 2035. New target is 75% EVs by 2035, 90% by 2040 but it's not clear if not-yet-finalized policy will achieve this

I say it again and again...the Repugnican party must be totally obliterated in the upcoming elections, so that there will never be even the remotest possibility that a shitshow like this can ever happen again.

The pro-Palestinian activists had spent 18 months in jail awaiting trial. Eighteen other alleged Palestine Action members are currently awaiting trials scheduled for later this year.
If I were a newsreader I'd be unable to use the phrase 'His inclusion in the files does not indicate any wrongdoing' without giving the camera a wink.

Absolutely dire programme today,
@channel4news.bsky.social. Switched off.
Mandelson this, Starmer leadership that, and a bit of free PR for Farage for good measure.

Remembering those who perished on this day in 1958, when a flight carrying Manchester United players, staff and journalists crashed shortly after takeoff in Munich, West Germany.
23 of the 44 people on board lost their lives. The 'Busby Babes' were an exciting young team decimated on that day.

Fact: Donald Trump is ALWAYS lying.
District Judge Theodore Chuang, has ruled that Elon Musk will have to sit for a deposition for lawyers to examine his role in dismantling USAID..
Congress, it's time to start an independent commission to investigate and make sense of the Epstein Files.
The American public demands answers for everyone named in the files and accountability for the victims. It's time.
How deep does this go? Why won't the DOJ do their job? Investigate them.

🚨BREAKING: The White House Thursday refused to rule out the presence of immigration enforcement at voting locations this November, a response that follows extremist rhetoric about placing federal forces at the polls.
www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
White House ‘can’t guarantee’ ICE won’t be at polls
The federal government has historically recognized polling places as off-limits for immigration enforcement precisely to avoid deterring lawful voters.
Watch lawless ICE thugs now start every paper with claim that they were an "escape risk"!
Illiterate, Ignorant, untrained KKK/ProudBoy/3%er are NOT LAW ENFORCEMENT!!
And have no business being on the street until they are taught legal procedures!!

After yrs of planning & preparing, things didn't work @ the last minute. I deeply feel for these scientists. Our Antarctic project is smaller scale—but we faced continuous setbacks, from govt, Mother Nature, tech. We get so little time to do our work here; setbacks are heartbreaking

As Spec’l elections fall to D’s in ‘safe’ R seats & Nov midterms loom closer, the panicked drumbeat of “election fraud” from the White House grows daily
TACO will do anything to control the midterms. We need to be prepared…reach out to the 89M that didn’t vote in 2024; we need them activated!

WATCH: @RepJamesComer 🤡 hilariously
says “this is a serious investigation” as he refuses to let the Clintons testify in public about Epstein — and won’t even bring in others like Trump, who is mentioned more times in the files than Harry Potter in all 7 books 😕🤷🏼
