We're "suddenly" finding out that giving every autocratic dictatorship in the world free & open access to our own social media, possibly isn't a great idea

Putin murdered Alexei Navalny in the most disgusting and performative way.

He's a psychopath and a monster.

Now look at politicians in Britain, Europe, and America who are either looking the other way - or engaging in abject whataboutery.

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate.

And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials.

As the Constitution requires.

Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...

Brexiters just want leave everything. It's all they know. They'll keep splintering and factioning themselves until there's nothing left but a thousand parties of one.
As if the split on the right between the Tories and Reform weren’t enough of a spectacle, we now have a split on the further right between Reform and Restore. Farage v Lowe. A race to the bottom.

The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.

Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks — paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

Voter cheating, or electoral fraud, is extremely rare in the USA

Only 39 cases of voter fraud were ID'd in a recent election, a mere 0.000039% of over 100 million ballots cast

This isn't a purely philosophical or semantic argument about what "British" means.

Once you accept different tiers of British citizenship you gain a way to formally discriminate.

USSR documents famously had a "5th line" denoting ethnicity. Stalin's nationalist repressions used this as their basis.
It *literally* does.

Thats what it is. A document which says youre British.

The Democratic chief election officials of six states are denouncing two new voter suppression bills making their way through Congress — underscoring how the legislation would place a huge burden on voters and election administrators just as midterm election season kicks off.
‘A massive burden on American eligible voters’: State election chiefs oppose GOP voter suppression bills
“American voters will be the ones paying for this — by paying more in taxes, spending more time jumping through bureaucratic hoops, or losing access to the ballot box altogether.”

I like the government pivot to reminding voters that Farage is an avowed enemy of NATO & Europe & an ardent admirer of Vladimir Putin, who routinely orders the murders of critics & opponents. It is politically effective & morally essential.

Interesting that Epstein emails refer to “the Russians” being able to help with the installation of “discreet” motion activated hidden cameras.

Uses the dangle of “scholarships” to draw the girls in.

Then takes their passports.

If the Brexit years really were behind us, Reform would no longer be a threat, there’d be no talk of leaving the ECHR, no Brexit peerages or whining about ‘Brexit betrayal’.
Instead, there’d be accountability and an electoral price to pay for the damage done. A ruthless reality check. No prisoners.

Note how he's not presenting any ideas, nor telling people why they should vote for him.

He's just insulting everyone else.
When I lived in Japan, far-right parties used to drive around blaring out propaganda from loudspeaker vans. People saw them as public nuisances at best, dangerous nutters at worst. Interesting to see Matt Goodwin adopt the same strategy.

Tom Harper again. 12 years ago, as a journalist, he ran baseless stories to mitigate Murdoch’s phone hacking by twisting a police report that ‘blue chip’ companies were also hacking (when they were victims of it). Now this…
