CW: Current Affairs with Dgar
I know things all around the world aren’t great right now, and I’m not going to pretend that things don’t look pretty bleak. I also acknowledge that my attention span and personal interests don’t allow me to follow everything that’s going on around the globe. This is my take on some of the things I follow, after my first coffee of the day.
#USpol
Trump’s popularity is low. Like really low. The list of failures is stacking up. He’s lost the support of members of his party, some of the conservative press, and has polling so low Guinness is taking notes. If there’s one thing I’d say about the Reflecting Pool, it would be “Release The Epstein Files!”#UKpol #VoteBinface
Farage is busy shooting himself in the foot, with Count Binface just helping him aim. Reform is not enjoying the kind of attention they’re receiving, being made to look as ridiculous as they actually are.#UkraineWar #Crimea #SiegeOfCrimea
The Siege of Crimea appears to be working. Ukraine has been striking supply routes on land and sea. Putin is becoming as unpopular as Trump.#AI #AIslop
Awareness of the economic and environmental impacts of massive data centres is becoming more mainstream, while the general public is getting tired of slop images and videos everywhere they look. Some businesses are being slammed with massive bills for AI use, and feeling backlash over using AI in their products or services from their customers. Several companies have publicly taken a position against AI generated content, either requiring it to be identified, or banning it outright.#RecklessBen #BricksAndMinifigs
Reckless Ben and his quest to return Brian Mansell his Star Wars LEGO from Bricks and Minifigs (BAM) is still ongoing. BAM had a gag order placed on Ben after the release of Part 2, but the gag order has been lifted and Part 3 is out. During the saga, Ben has inadvertently exposed a rotten culture of corruption in a number of US law departments, involving the Morman church and the people who run BAM’s Corporate affairs.Keep fighting the good fight. Love and support one another. And maybe take some heart in the fact that the fascists are not having a great time right now either.

Policy and reality
A big part of the problem is government disconnect between policy and reality. Rather than solutions, politicians default to shallow stories and myths. Often initiated by wealthy elites. We still keep on nodding in hope.

Report: Anyone in Germany who publicly denies Israel’s right to exist or calls for its abolition could face up to five years in prison under a new draft law.
The proposal would probably violate Germany’s constitution. The govt research service said the law could create a "special right against a specific opinion & conflict with freedom of expression under Article 5 of the Basic Law".

Report: Armed Israeli settlers detained US congressman Ro Khanna at gunpoint as he visited Palestinian communities.
"We were at a village that Israeli settlers had destroyed...And these hoodlums come in with machine guns – M4, an American-made machine gun – & they detain us."
"They block off the road. And then they call the IDF & the IDF is on their side, not on the side of the Americans."

Board of Trump's plan for concentration camps in Gaza to go ahead
"Palestinians will be herded into fenced 'humanitarian shelters' policed by foreign forces."
"The plan matches leaked documents for a surveilled, checkpoint-controlled ‘planned community' that’s designed to force Palestinians into what amounts to an Israeli panopticon”.

Report: June, 2026 poll on Gaza genocide
30% of US adults say "Israel’s military campaign in Gaza amounts to genocide". ~20% say it doesn't.
Around half say "they did not know enough to say".
Around a third of US Jewish adults hold a positive view of Netanyahu. Notably, this compares to 44% holding a positive view of Zohran Mamdani.

Analysis: "Proposals to move U.S. troops from the Gulf to Israel would empower Israeli aggression & keep the U.S. entangled in pointless war."
On top of a merger of US & Israeli military R&D, the admin wants to establish massive US military bases inside Israel.
Here’s why trying to turn Israel into America’s “aircraft carrier in the Middle East” makes the region a much more dangerous place...

I think the story of Utah Women's Suffrage is a story that we should never forget. Women gained the right to vote in Utah in 1870. A few years later they lost it again in 1887 until 1896.
The same thing can happen to any marginalized group anywhere in the United States today.
Please exercise your rights, including to vote. It really is a "use it or lose it" situation.

#Trump seems to think his safety is only at risk if he travels outside the US, or now if he flies on his bright shiny new plane.
I would remind him that the 1st attack on the World Trade Center in 1993 was perpetrated by men who had been living in the US, and the men who flew planes into the twin towers on 9/11 had been living & working in the US for months before.
Trump obviously has zero understanding of terrorists' cells & that they are reportedly very patient people.

three men walk into a pub…
Rupert Murdoch,
Donald Trump,
and Mitch McConnellI can’t be certain why not one of them has opened their mouth to order a drink so far, but I suspect it’s because they are in a competition to see who can accumulate the most money, and hate spending their own 🤔

To be honest, I could not care less what #Trump admits or not
The chance that he is lying when speaking is almost absolute, we can think for ourselves and don't need confirmation from a madman
The sheer amount of lies is the actual problem, scandals, lies and distractions while he gets even richer of the massive corruption and most people scramble to get by
Trump is an example of the true worst of humanity

I assume the legal system won't save us from Micah Beckwith, so make sure to vote him out of office. Maybe have the state GOP do him like they did with his Indiana Secretary of State friend.
These guys see their offices as way to make money and bully people they don't like.
