Authorities have not yet said if they expect Heathrow to be reopened by Saturday.show more

🧵 THREAD: You've heard the phrase "OUR DEMOCRACY" a... million times. But what exactly is "OUR DEMOCRACY"? 🤔 When they say "democracy," they don't mean a republic. They don't mean consent of the governed. They don't mean your right to choose your own leaders. They mean a system where "institutions" - NGOs, multilaterals, the permanent bureaucracy - advance a set of values they consider settled: equality, social justice, cosmopolitanism, global governance. These values aren't proposals to be voted on. They're treated as moral prerequisites that must be true *before* your vote counts. Despite what they say, they aren't for checks and balances. Checks and balances limit what government can do to you. This limits what you can do to *them*. The brakes are on accountability, not power. The institutions that set the boundaries of acceptable policy have put themselves beyond the reach of the electorate, and they call that arrangement "democracy." Trump has been an existential threat to this system since the moment he said "drain the swamp" ... because the swamp IS the system. When he threatened those institutions, he didn't threaten the republic. He threatened their immunity from it. And they said so. On camera. At their own events. In their own words. As always, patience as I pull together the thread.👇show more

The decision to abandon the Kurds started by Trump... in 2019 and finalized by Trump in 2026 here is part of Senator Mitt Romney’s speech on 2019 which on that time again Trump made deal with Erdogan here what he Said: “We know the truth about our Kurd allies. They lost 11,000 combatants in our joint effort to defeat ISIS.” “The decision to abandon the Kurds violates one of our most sacred duties.” “What we have done to the Kurds will stand as a bloodstain in the annals of American history.”show more

Diappointed voters in Ebute Metta, Lagos, are telling me... the disruption of voting at the PU at 254 Borno Way was by thugs working for APC. One said: "They were threatening us right from the start, warning the Igbo to behave and not vote against APC... that this is not Anambra."show more

🔥Out of everything said by Mike Lee in his... over 90-minute speech on the Senate floor supporting the SAVE America Act, this moment NUKED Dems from orbit. “They're entitled to their opinions, Madam President.” “They are NOT entitled to their own facts. And those things that they want us to accept as facts are just DAMNED LIES.” This is what the American people need to hear!show more

There are some people who think that if Jews... hide, make ourselves smaller, perhaps there will be less antisemitism. Perhaps if we don’t fight back, don’t speak up, stop moaning, make ourselves smaller, that will work…even though it never has before. So I’m pleased people fought back in Edgware (a special place where I spent the first 10 years of my life and where I was at a school reunion today). I’m pleased the antisemites were outnumbered in the battle of Edgware, that they were forced to retreat even as they vowed revenge and ‘Zionists we will be back!’ This was a victory but there is no sense of joy. They have made life so uncomfortable here that many are making plans to move to Israel, including my friends. Now they tried to stop an event showing property in Israel. They don’t want us here, they don’t want us there… But today they tried to bring the fight to our doorstep and we said: ‘No Pasaran! They shall not pass!’show more

Michael Saylor and Strategy are driving all of the... Bitcoin out of circulation. Since August 11, 2020, Strategy has acquired 714,644 Bitcoin. That is 355.9 Bitcoin per day. And they are not slowing down. In fact, they are speeding up. The blue line is the share of Strategy's share of the remaining mineable supply, and this is only assuming their historical accumulation pace. At this pace, in 2045 they will have over 3.2 million Bitcoin and over 15.2% of the terminal Bitcoin supply. And don't forget: With more capital, their creditworthiness improves. With better creditworthiness, the better the borrowing ability. The better borrowing terms/ability, the faster the accumulation. Strategy is structurally unassailable, and if you don't secure your portion of the network... ...you will only be able to rent exposure. Tick tock.show more

BREAKING: One of the Tennessee Three, Democrat Gloria Johnson,... just told CNN this morning that a Republican in the Tennessee House Criminal Justice Committee said he wants to bring back lynchings. Don't tell me that racism doesn't exist in America. Not only are Republicans fighting to take away women's rights and our freedoms, but now they actually want to bring back lynchings! They literally want us to go back to the 1940s. It won't stop here, they will keep going as long as Americans keep electing them.show more

EFF CONTROLLED JMPD ABUSE RESOURCES TO GIVE POLICE ESCORT... TO PRIVATE CITIZENS Residents of Johannesburg, you are in big trouble. The city has collapsed. Nothing is working. No water for weeks on end. More than 40 000 potholes and counting. Now the EFF controlled JMPD is busy giving escort services to private citizens. Johannesburg is finished. Panyaza Lesufi alliance partner the EFF is doing what they said they will do, destroy the ANC from within. No alliance with the EFF ever works. Love them or not, I guarantee you if this portfolio was under the DA they would NEVER allow such.show more

Trump just claimed that Michael Cohen is trying to... get a better deal for himself by testifying against Trump. Specifically Trump said: "He’s a liar. He’s trying to get a better deal for himself, but it’s not going to work.” Does Trump really think his supporters will believe this? Will they? Michael Cohen is not trying to get any kind of deal for himself. He already served time for his crimes. He’s not under any indictment. This is a pure lie by Trump, who ironically just called Michael Cohen a liar.show more

(Lukashenko says what Putin tells him): “If the Americans... couldn't handle Iran, then they should not mess with China. They will never be able to deal with that kind of power,” Lukashenko said in an interview with RT journalist Rick Sanchez. Thus, as of now, attempts by the administration of Donald Trump to “pull” Russia and, indirectly, Belarus away from China have not led to a strategic split between Moscow and Beijing. Despite certain diplomatic steps, a softening of sanctions pressure, and ongoing negotiations, Russia remains deeply integrated into China’s economic and technological system.show more

As I head to bed, let me leave you... with this. Beyond the constant drumbeat of false allegations and ignorance from some of our citizens, marinate on this. This is why most of us do it: “Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’ And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” ~ Isaiah 6:8 They heard the voice of duty, of God and country, and said, “Send me.” They left homes, families, and futures behind to defend liberty on distant battlefields. Some never returned. Their sacrifice was total. Their “Here am I” became eternal. To every Gold Star family, every veteran who carried the weight: Thank you. May we never forget those who said “Send me”… and meant it with their lives.🙏✝️ Goodnight, ya’ll. God Bless America. ❤️🇺🇸🔥show more
