If and when the madness of the Trump regime is over and some Admin starts to piece back the destruction from the wasteland he created. The purposeful killing of the WaPo by a bloated billionaire enabler will have a special mention

Jesus. And it raises another question. How many others in or around government are lured by the prospect of a post-office pay bonanza? How will we ever know unless they're caught up in a politicised US sex scandal?
Peter Mandelson is telling the truth on one thing: the idea he was bought for a $4k “bursary” or a $75k gift is ridiculous
The real incentive was a post-government payday - one so big he *rejected* a $3–5m-a-year offer
And Epstein enabled that payday
Here’s the evidence. 🧵

The GOP has offered nothing this century except for catastrophic wars. No healthcare plan; no re-industrialization. Now they're losing their only issue, immigration, as people see the violence and havoc that comes with mass deportations.
Wow! What sounded like the entire AEW Dynamite audience in Las Vegas tonight chanted "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE!" in unison before the main event

It's still a cover-up
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release.
DEATH? The truth is probably far worse than anyone can imagine.

Mandelson should lose pension if he broke EU rules in Epstein scandal, campaigners say
European officials are “assessing” whether the ex-commissioner contravened the ethics code.

Bezos has killed the WaPo. Virtually all foreign bureaus shut. It's 🇺🇦 reporter fired, all to align closely to Trump and his pro Putin position. The guardrails of US democracy have failed blown away by a criminal regime, led by a rapist.

Bezos has fired virtually the entire WaPo foreign desks, Ukraine, Berlin, Istanbul etc. The paper is a hollowed out husk, which now aligns with Trump's support for Putin. A dark and shameful day for US journalism.

As ICE uses Palantir tech to find neighborhoods to raid and Flock cameras track people across the US, how can you protect yourself?

In this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
If Reform ever wins power in Westminster, it will be because of Labour’s cowardice | George Monbiot
Starmer could improve our unfair electoral system to stop the hard right, but he won’t. All the party has left are threats about ‘splitting the vote’, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot
