Beyond belief. Expect to hear nothing from Britain's self-appointed guardians of fiscal rectitude, who couldn't comment often enough about 'Biden's inflation'.
The Trump administration just announced they will refuse to release the October inflation report.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

Essential reading. Putin's Global Crime Syndicate's USA branch has published its plans for Europe. It is predictably grim.
The US National Security Strategy released overnight has shocked Europeans.
In truth, its plans for Europe are just a reiteration of what the State Department already publicly posted back in May. But Europeans have not wanted to listen.

New US security strategy lays bare European regime change plans
While the Trump administration claims they no longer want the US to "prop up the entire world order like Atlas", in the same document they dictate to Europe what it can and can't do.

Why would US *security* policy require them to interfere to change the politics of European countries who are allies, subordinates of USA?
Obviously, to change their opposition to the Russian mafia state.

2 weeks ago, Farage and Reform looked vulnerable over Nathan Gill's prison sentence for shilling for Russia. Effectively treason.
It has taken a decade to get any focus on this massive, critically important scandal.
What do prominent Reform/Putin opponents do? Change the subject!

Awful strategy is one reason we lose.
Failure to understand the audience. Is there a single voter who cares about historic childhood racism who would consider Farage?
Cluelessly flooding the zone with exactly what those who intend to fill it with shit want us to.

The attention paid, significance attached to the story about Farage's childhood racism is absurd.
1: Weaponising views held as a child signals lack of a better argument.
2: Reform voters don't care. They will see it as evidence of 1.
3: It distracts from more effective lines of attack.

No question about it. The US Christian Right has been infiltrating our right wing politics for 30 years. It is now a global, kleptocratic alliance, including the Russian Orthodox church. See 'The Family' on Netflix.
Two key differences, I think, have so far saved the UK from full-on MAGA madness: our relationship to religion and our regulation of guns. We should be fully prepared for the far right to start prodding both. ~AA
