Just watched a British Prime Minister stand up to a bullying U.S. President who treats women like objects. Sadly, it was fiction ('Love Actually', actually) but we live in hope...

Donald Trump is facing criticism over wearing a white golfing cap through the solemn ceremony as the first bodies of American soldiers killed in Desperate Don's war on #Iran are brought home. #FoxNews suppresses this controversy by using the wrong video of #Trump: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/08/fox-news-trump-hat-salute-military Here's the video #FoxNewsFacts should've used... #USpol #MAGA #GOP#Impeach45 #NoKings #TyrantTrump#WarMongerInChief #PedoProtectorInChief#EpsteinFiles#WeaponsOfMassDistraction

Morning, all, while Donald Tantrump has redefined MAGA as Make America Grieve Again, the Christian Nationalist Far Right in America has defined MAGA as Men Assault Girls Again. Crime boss Don Trumpeone should take yet another leaf out of Adolf Hitler's playbook and award American mothers medals for birthing four or more sons to serve the Dear Führer and his endless wars of conquest. #Trump #GOP #MAGA #USpol#NoKings #TyrantTrump#HeritageFoundation #TalibanWest https://youtu.be/orbSiS-9ZWU?si=2iSqPiO6nCwAnMGb

Morning, all, Desperate Don might not assault young girls, but he knows people who have. https://youtu.be/AvxB1idrpmU?si=oMIqX4VkuSmDEbKS Those of us not born yesterday will remember America bombing the Chinese Embassy in Serbia in 1999. Smart Weapons; Stupid Decisions. When they get the intel wrong, with #PGM you're almost certain of hitting the wrong target. #Trump and Pete "ROE 'R WOKE" Hegseth are War Criminals #USpol #GOP #MAGA#TyrantTrump #WarMongerInChief#EpsteinFiles #Impeach45 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_bombing_of_the_Chinese_embassy_in_Belgrade

On Donald Tantrump, "he's a three year old with a loaded bazooka and a loaded diaper in charge of the U.S. military...." On Desperate Don and his Special Military Excursion, and Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Excursions at the Department of Excursions. Crime boss Don Trumpeone is offering anyone on his mailing list access to secret U.S. military intelligence. For money. #ImpeachTrump now! #Trump #GOP #MAGA #USpol#TyrantTrump #TraitorTrump#GrifterInChief #OPSEC https://youtu.be/qepYRy2BTAg?si=dYCG_bMdq9N_wRQb

@capnthommo@c.im Apologies. Desperate Don on the other hand is a much hated comic book character.

Just begun re-watching the filum 'VICE'... Such a strong sense of deja-vu. For Donald J Trump read George W Bush. For Dick Cneney read Steven 'Noseferatu' Miller. For Iraq, oil and alleged WMD, read Iran, oil and, er, alleged WMD. Why do we never learn from past evil blunders? #USpol #UKpol#Trump #GOP #MAGA#TyrantTrump #WarMongerInChief#NoKings

Morning, all, guessing the regime in Washington DC is too busy "obliterating" (once again) Iran's nuclear programme to spend any time releasing the majority of #EpsteinFiles, including those allegations that the felon and adjudged rapist Donald Trump is not only a #PedoProtector but also a paedophile... Wowed by awesome US military power? Imagine if Desperate Don unleashed it against Denmark.

Morning, all, resistance to the Warmonger-in-Chief, Donald Tantrump, is both discombobulated and flabbergasted by the naked hypocrisy of his 'Special Military Operation' against #Iran, aka his use of #WMD (Weapons of Mass Distraction from the #EpsteinFiles ). Though Jon Stewart is spot on with his observation that 'we now have bombs smarter than our President...' #Trump #GOP #MAGA #USpol#WarIsPeace #NoKings #TyrantTrump#SlavaUkrayini #ImpeachTrump https://youtu.be/WCkcPcMTYuQ?si=Wyews7395uIosYDD

Good Morning, all, woke to news on #BBCWorldService radio that for the first time China's global warming emissions have reduced year-on-year. Admittedly, the decline is only 0.3% but, given structural changes to PRC's economy, hopefully the world has turned the corner. I sought a link but blow me if I could find the story on #BBCnews. It was #1 on World Service but 5' into bulletin on domestic #R4Today Tho I could've learned more about Sarah Ferguson asking Epstein for bankruptcy 'advice'.

@pallenberg@mastodon.social Am guessing the increased frequency of American tourist promotion authorities' increasingly desperate 'Visit USA' adverts on Utube is somehow related to President Donald Tantrump's #ICEcoldKillers and the negative publicity his lackeys Evil Garden Noem and #Noseferatu Miller are garnered on his behalf... #USpol #GOP #MAGA #Trump

@BakerRL75@m.ai6yr.org I read 'ELLY' but I thought 'ELE' as used in the filum 'Deep Impact,' where the curious journo finds out it's not the name of the mistress of a top administration official but an acronym for 'Extinction Level Event''... Trump will be the death of us all.

@praetor@mstdn.social No idea about its verity but it would be unsurprising if true. It's what happens when Dear Leaders make cults of themselves....

For President George W. Bush, #WMD meant 'Weapons of Mass Destruction.' For President Donald J. Trump, WMD means 'Wars of Mass Distraction.' Desperate Don is fighting a tenacious rearguard action to defer his impeachment, and perhaps imprisonment, courtesy of the #EpsteinFiles. US soldiers "may die." Patriotic Charlatan-in-Chief Donald Tantrump likely hopes many will die, to get America back on his side. #USpol #GOP #MAGA#NoKings #TyrantTrump#Impeach45 #Invoke25A https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/mar/08/iran-war-keir-starmer-donald-trump-us-israel

Wow! #R4Today on #Italy's historic (first time ever) victory over #England in the #SixNations rugby tournament. A commentator described the event through a reference to the aphorism "Life is a road full of flattened squirrels who were incapable of making timely decisions."

@georgetakei@universeodon.com All while Donald Tantrump is working hard to make bribery, corruption, and lawlessness the norm in America. The irony is sumptuous, and as ever with Don Trumpeone trimmed in gold. As ever, the projection tells one all one needs to know about Donald Trump's own amoral values.

@3dmac@mastodon.art @alice@lgbtqia.space Musk is a taste I have thankfully never acquired... Many Americans haven't the faintest idea about what Marxism is about, so I will undoubtedly trigger some by suggesting it is looking like Karl Marx was right, when he predicted Capitalism would destroy itself.

Morning, all, This is a #Clerihew I wrote during the first Trump administration, when the parallels between Rome and America and the transition from Republic to Empire were looming. In Trump 2.0, President Donald Tantrump appears ever more set on becoming #TyrantTrump. #Micropem #Micropoetry Gaius Julius Caesar Crossed the Rubicon without a visa.

@broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca At one point, while still in the #ICE vehicle, one of the shooter's fellow hoodlums has his finger on the trigger of his assault rifle. Regarding firearm safety, best practice is to keep the index finger extended and one should only place it on the trigger when one has a target and is about to fire. These thugs are worse than cowboys. #ICEcoldKillers #Trump #USpol #ICE #GOP #MAGA #EvilGardenNoem#NoseferatuMiller

@MAKS23@mastodon.social Don Trumpeone would never target Putin with a decapitation strike... Donald Tantrump would only launch the TLAMs once he was certain of the exact locations of all copies of the kompromat the Russian dictator holds on Desperate Don.

@anae@mstdn.mx Desperate Don will do anything to hide the bruising on his infected hands. Seems foundation make-up no longer suffices... Why does Donald Tantrump salute anyway? The U.S. Commander-in-Chief is a civilian. It's especially galling as Donald Trump is a five-times #DraftDodger awarded his bone spurs for refusing to do his duty during the Vietnam War. #USpol #Trump #GOP #MAGA #EpsteinFiles #WarsOfMassDistraction

Morning, all, it's called #UNREP (Underway Replenishment) or #RAS (Replenishment At Sea); it's a routine evolution for any truly pelagic Navy. But it's not without risk. Warships occasionally collide when manoeuvring two/three massive ships within 50 metres of each other at up to 18 knots. An Inquiry will determine the cause of this complex casualty, but Donald Tantrump will undoubtedly blame #DEI, as the DDG's CO is Black. #USpol #USN #Trump #GOP #MAGA #RacistTrump https://youtu.be/XMy6fANc7W8?si=BvKw2vrXpy4atXLE

Two articles that suggest that boys (and by extension, men) have a problem: https://www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-the-awful-truth-why-america-hates-white-women/?utm_campaign=968afe29-39e7-45b6-a2e0-e403e0d51196&utm_source=1234573https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/feb/23/15-year-old-girl-misogyny-social-media-online-abuse Not sure why - perhaps it's a matter of a cultural predilection among some women to given men a free pass thru misdirected empathy - but there are also far too many instances of some women excusing or echoing some men's derogatory attitudes towards women. #Sexism #Misogyny

Morning, all, the President who admitted that he always lies was later found to be telling the truth... The memorial to the First 'President's House' in Philadelphia looks like it could serve as a good model for how President Donald Tantrump's East Wing Ballroom will be preserved as a lesson to the gullible.

Morning, all, President Donald Tantrump described going to war with Iran as a “massive and ongoing operation.” Shome mishtake? "Special Military Operation," shurely?

@georgetakei@universeodon.com Of course it's not a 'War'... It's simply the use of WMD - Weapons of Mass Distraction... #EpsteinFiles #Trump #GOP #MAGA

Of course, the #GunNuts will condemn the serial murderer as mentally-ill and, by definition, _not_ a #RGO (a Responsible Gun Owner) like them. But they all have summat in common, a fetish for and ownership of (lots of) #Guns. And a warped grievance-collector mindset suited to mass murder. Removing easy access to firearms reduces that risk. Or gun-owners should swear an oath - if they ever begin a shooting spree, they should shoot themselves first. #GunControl #USpol #2A#GOP #MAGA #Trump

Good Morning, all, have naturally been disappointed with the tribulations of Wales during the latest Six Nations rugby tournament but kudos to Scotland for defeating England in the Calcutta Cup. The Scots played some marvellous and entertaining running rugby football against the auld enemy. Bravo Zulu!

If Desperate Don's #War against #Iran is "self-defense" as #GOP toadies claim, why hasn't President Donald Tantrump invoked #NATO Article 5 and asked his allies to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with America (as Bush did following the 9/11 attacks in 2001)? After all, if it is truly "self-defense" that implies America has been attacked by Iran, the very case Article 5 is designed to counter. That crime-boss #Trump has not done so is further evidence his War is unconstitutional and illegal. #USpol

Random musing on the latest series of 'Silent Witness' - very densely plotted and well acted (reminded me of Steve Moffat's scripts) but what do they do with all the organs they've removed for examination and testing post-Post Mortem? Being the BBC, do they pop them in a plastic bag and, like turkey giblets, sew them inside the cadaver before closing it up? If so, you can see why Aunty lost the 'Master Chef' franchise...

RE: https://mastodon.online/@newsthump/116181583441038440 Well, it's probably the only way you're going to get Barron Trump to go to #Iran, as it's extremely unlikely he'll enlist to fight in Emperror Trump's Army of Peace and Liberation....

Good Morning, all, well, that was weird... Woke from a lucid dream this morning, almost all of which I spent carefully crafting a Visit Report to convey vital intel on an Oxford quantum computing startup. I can still taste their exotic coffee and somewhat disappointing biscuits. On waking, I concluded I'd reprised an episode of 'Doctor Who' but have since realised it was the first half of a 'Silent Witness' story. Must watch the second part - wonder what I'll dream of tonight....
