Lie down with Trump get brainworms
In case you missed this, the BBC edited a historian's speech about Trump to remove the claim that he's "the most openly corrupt president in US history." This came after Trump had threatened a $1 billion lawsuit.
Elite capitulation continues.

Trump Angrily Threatened to Sue BBC. Then Things Took a Darker Turn.
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

Several ‘New York Times’ headlines in 2025 have earned severe social media backlash. Is it happening on purpose?

It was always a transnational fascist movement
At a Madrid congress packed with far-right Catholics, Heritage president Kevin Roberts pitched Project 2025 as a blueprint for a new Christian order. His Opus Dei-tinged praise for “young men” leading a revival shows the U.S. culture war isn’t staying in America — it’s spreading.
