We’re witnessing a concerted effort by #Trump & #MAGA#politicians to cast doubt on the legitimate & strong #FultonCounty#ElectionInterference case by attacking the prosecutor. It’s an effort that takes advantage of every avenue of #government#power to which Trump’s allies have access. Their goal? #Delay#accountability for Trump’s alleged attempt to illegally overturn a presidential election.
There's some diaspora #Asians on Vancouver Island (and several other places in Global North) who have severe #InternalizedRacism, to the point that they're not just #indoctrinated into #colonialism & capitalism but they're so self unaware of internalized racism that they don't even know when racist white folks #tokenize them to defend/justify racism & use them to push WS beliefs on their own peoples.
I lose my fu*king shit around Asians like this. They harm us Asians who fight for human rights.
Why do #racist#politicians join cultural associations in their local areas - when they've ignored that cultural community for years prior to trying to gain more #political powers or trying to gain higher ranking political positions?
A Green party politician in Dresden has been #attacked just days after another candidate was assaulted and hospitalized by a group of youths. It comes as the interior minister hosted an #emergency summit to discuss how to prevent political #violence amid rising threats against politicians.
Ministry of Imagination Manifesto released as the world goes to the polls
By Rob Hopkins, originally published by Rob Hopkins blog April 17, 2024
"This year, 49% of the world goes to the polls in 64 countries. As Time magazine puts it, “2024 is not just AN election year. It’s perhaps THE election year”. The outcomes of these elections will hugely shape the world & our future, most importantly of all is the US Presidential election which could see Donald Trump returned as President, which would unleash what The Economist recently described as “the biggest danger to the world”. In most cases, voters are being asked to choose between deeply unimaginative manifestos, all firmly wedded to a business-as-usual economic model that is clearly & dangerously failing around the world...
#politics#uk#parliament#socialmedia#honeytrap#naked#politicians Every time I read about this honey trap story, I find it hard to believe people so gullible and stupid are actually in parliament. It’s madness!
“two MPs are reported to have responded by sending images of themselves…”
From my archives. Met up with some fellow environmental & forest protector activist friends. For a protest rally. About 70 of us stayed behind after rally, to chase Horgan & Trudeau around the building. They had to move their meeting rooms 3 times because we kept disrupting from outside & making a lot of noise👍
I was playing the #BennyHill#ThemeSong as we chased Horgan & Trudeau, all around BC legislature. It's my fave instrumental music to play - when chasing corrupt #politicians 😅
@taylorlorenz our #politicians#congress critters etc should wear patches of the companies they own the most stock in like race car drivers so we know who they are driving for #tiktok
In the Republican response to Biden's #StateOfTheUnion address, Senator #KatieBritt told a heart-wrenching story about a woman who was a survivor of cross-border sex trafficking, and tried to blame that horrible crime on Biden.
#France has made the historic move to make #abortion a constitutional right... backed by #politicians across the political spectrum, partly as a response to the constraints re-appearing in the USA.
AS MOST AUSTRALIANS are aware, federal politicians are paid handsomely for their work, sometimes pocketing additional allowances and enjoying unlimited expenses budgets.
The Independent Parliamentary Expenses Authority (IPEA) is responsible for approving, collating and publishing parliamentarians’ expense claims. However, due to a ‘botched system upgrade’, there is still a massive backlog of claims not expected to be brought up-to-date until later this year.
While #politicians argue about how & if we might undergo a #greentransition some people are just getting on with it.
A new report from the Energy & Climate Intelligence Unit suggest the UK's #netzero economy grew by nearly 10% in 2023, while also providing well paid & productive employment for #workers.
While good news this will confirm to some on the right that the #privatesector can get on without state aid... but Green Keynsianism would accelerate this further!
