MASSIVE BREAKING NEWS: The Police in Abdanan, Ilam Province has officially joined the people. This is massive.

6 January is Epiphany, the Twelfth Day after Christmas, a feast of manifestation when the light is shown to the world. In some old lore twelve straw fires were lit on this day to drive out the spirit of death. Like the first buds & flowers we release the past and welcome the new.

Same thing happening in the UK

The oil companies were informed about an act of war before it happened, Congress was not. That, my friends, is what an authoritarian regime run by oligarchs looks like.

Angelina Jolie: “This is the deliberate bombing of a trapped population who have nowhere to flee. Gaza has been an open-air prison for nearly two decades and is fast becoming a mass grave.”

Now imagine it was a migrant saying that about a white girl

russia “strongly condemns an act of international aggression by the USA against Venezuela,” — says russia’s UN representative Nebenzya. The same russia. The one bombing Us, Ukrainians for three years. Clowns. 🤡

Woman arrested live on air by Donald Trump's thugs just because she says she doesn't want her tax dollars used to commit war crimes in Venezuela. This is far worse repression than they have in Venezuela.

It’s time to remind you that we have not forgotten. We don’t care how many lawyers you hire to go through the 5.2 million files. You were given 30 days and are currently in violation of US Federal law.

Can we show @realDonaldTrump that we haven't forgotten about this? Can we retweet this 10,000 times? Comment when done ✅ 👇

Rachel Maddow on Venezuela: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of

You don’t have to be a fan of the Venezuelan government to recognise that Trump’s casual dismissal of the rules-based international order, a sweeping aside of the cardinal UN principle of respect for the sovereignty of nations, is a very serious development for the world.

Omid is right. This major international event is barely covered by our national broadcaster and when it is, it’s being tainted. The protestors are on the streets calling for freedom. We all know the regime in Tehran sees Israel behind everything, that doesn’t mean the BBC should

Genuinely shocked to see BBC Verify have chosen now to be out there giving an impression we should not believe what we are seeing in #Iran based on one image (of a real event). Amplification of this intensely organic revolution by Israeli social media accounts is making many

Not often I am on the same page as @Telegraph but happy to see that my @RestIsPolitics overseas politician of the year Maia Sandu takes their crown too. Really looking forward to interviewing her for LEADING soon. This is a good read about a good woman doing remarkable things in

So remind me again, why didn’t Trump get the Nobel Peace Prize?

Without authorization from Congress, and with the vast majority of Americans opposed to military action, Trump just launched an unjustified, illegal strike on Venezuela. He says we don’t have enough money for healthcare for Americans—but somehow we have unlimited funds for war??

Michael Gove has finally admitted what Brexit really was. A lie that worked and was therefore justified👇 In 2026, Gove is still insisting the £350m Brexit bus slogan was “literally the truth”, even after years of fact-checking, economic evidence and public harm. He now says

@campbellclaret @DustyFbpe #CorruptTories have form doing such things. Cox (still an MP I believe - amazingly!) defended a foreign nation against legal proceedings brought against that nation by the UK Govt (that he was part of!!). They like to try to monopolise the 🇬🇧 but only loyal to their bank account!
