We are facing a crisis of impunity. That's why we built The Rule of Law Project — to investigate unlawful conduct by federal officials, and work with state and local prosecutors to hold them to account.
Watch former DOJ prosecutor Mark Blumberg and human rights leader Brad Adams launch this critical accountability initiative on MSNOW with Nicolle Wallace.

Trump announces deal to import Russian diesel.
Yet he imposed tariffs on China and India for importing fuel from Russia.
3 weeks ago signed law threatening 500% tariffs on India and China.
Shows bankruptcy of Trump foreign, economic and other policies.

This isn’t a massive amount of oil. It’s 15 hours worth of monthly diesel supply. But this accomplishes three very ugly things:
1) Trump can threaten Ukraine if they bomb any more of Putin’s oil refineries.
2) This can be used as a pretext for why Trump insiders can do dirty business deals with Russia.
3) This can open the door for more sanctions relief for Putin.
‼️TRUMP: Oil deal with Russia. That is a big deal. That is massive amounts of oil coming into our country, and I wanna thank President Putin. We have massive amounts of oil being, coming into our country. So, thank you.
—————————————————
TRUMP: And by the way, I think you heard about the oil deal with Russia. That is a big deal. That is massive amounts of oil coming into our country, and I wanna thank President Putin, to be honest with you. We have massive amounts of oil being, coming into our country, and it's diesel, which is what we want. So, thank you.
1-JOURNALIST: President Zelensky said you're weak because of it. He just criticized you.
TUMP: Who said that?
1-JOURNALIST: Zelensky, Ukrainian president, just said you're weak because of the deal with Russia.
TRUMP: Okay.
2- JOURNALIST: President, Zelensky said the diesel deal is a weak move by a strong partner that will only prolong the war.
TRUMP: By a strong what?
2-JOURNALIST: By a strong partner that will only prolong war.
TRUMP: Well, we are a strong partner.
2-JOURNALIST: Will this embolden Putin?
TRUMP: Well, no, we need oil for the world, and this is diesel, which is what we need, so we're very happy to get it. We're very happy to get it. Look, we need it. Oil prices are already dropping like a rock, so we're very happy to get it.

Trump saves the day for Putin. Just as Ukraine was changing the direction of the war by inflicting real economic pain on Putin by hitting his oil refineries, Trump steps in and agrees to buy Russian diesel. Now Trump can say that Ukraine is bombing American interests and they better stop. Up until today, there was a real chance of an unspoken aerial cease fire if Russian could no longer tolerate the pain, but that has now disappeared

Kemi Badenoch wants to exempt the family home from inheritance tax.
But that creates a perverse incentive for elderly people to *upsize* to save IHT.
That could double the cost of the policy, and push £100bn+ from savings into housing.
A 🧵 on bad tax cuts.

Some wonderful news this morning. It has been confirmed that the required funding for the police investigation into the post office scandal has been given. Now for accountability.
True to your word @andyburnham
Very much appreciated.

Paul Nowak is replacing Frances O’Grady, his predecessor at the TUC, who was appointed a Bank of England director in 2019 under a Tory government.
She in turn replaced Unison chief Dave Prentis, also appointed under a Tory govt. He replaced Brendan Barber (TUC), who replaced Bill Morris (TGWU), who replaced Gavin Laird (appointed under Thatcher) etc etc. This is not new!

The specter of a Third World War haunted the East—
sometimes vanishing, only to reappear in the distance…
In short: You don’t need nuclear weapons to plunge the entire world into chaos. On one side, Iran blocks the Strait of Hormuz. On the other, a bunch of ragtag fighters armed with rusty Soviet Kalashnikovs block the Bab-el-Mandeb bottleneck. And just like that—the stage is set for global chaos, a free-for-all where it’s every man for himself.
Oh, and we have to thank Trump for that—the greatest field marshal of all time.

Bury 7-0 up against Wythenshawe in the FA Cup first round qualifier.
A sub plot - booing Darius Palma. Three years ago fans raised 7k for a shoulder operation, only for Palme to leave for a new team soon after.
‘We want our shoulder back’ sing the home fans. #facup
(Now 8-0)

Today's Times reports on my research on abuse of the EU settlement scheme & student loan system.
I have a longer article out, but a quick thread on some key things we found... 🧵
1) A fifth of all student loans are now going to non-UK nationals, with 1 in 20 to Romanians alone.

China openly challenges Trump.
Trump: "We need two billion dollars a day to reopen the Strait of Hormuz."
Chinese Foreign Minister: "The Strait was open before the war. The root of the problem lies in your illegal actions against Iran; you have created a global crisis out of nothing."

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

🚨🚨The Trump Crime Family is more corrupt than the totality of All Previous Organized Crime Families Combined in the history of the United States.
———————————————
I spent thirty (30 years investigating Major Organized Crime Families & Gangs and without a doubt, Donald Trump has committed more crimes against the United States of America and its citizens than all Organized Crime Syndicates.
TRUMP is directly responsible for the theft of billions of dollars and the systematic destruction of our economy, the rule of law and our democracy.
TRUMP must be Impeached and Removed from office by the U.S. Congress this year. Both Democrats & Republicans must join together to save our nation.

Let me get this straight. Trump sued his own IRS for $10 billion. His own Justice Department is now considering settling that case. And one of the terms on the table is that the IRS drops all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses PERMANENTLY.
He’s using the full weight of the federal government to protect himself and his family from accountability and potentially pay himself BILLIONS of your tax dollars.
