Parliamentary procedure geek. No partisan debate. Also Star Trek, police procedurals, sci-fi, baseball (Jays), Wrexham AFC, and tennis. I retweet out of interest, not necessarily agreement. Will usually follow-back, but not if you have a blank profile.

This should be shown to medical students for years about how doctors, entranced by power and fancy titles, lent the legitimacy of the medical profession to a deranged authoritarian.

Can doctors sink lower than this?

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Nouveau billet: le Projet de loi 1, avec sa Constitution du Québec, est un monument d'incohérence incompatible avec le cadre constitutionnel dans lequel il a la prétention de s'inscrire.
Ceci n’est pas une constitution
Le projet de constitution québécoise n’est pas sérieux

Have you ever watched any of his appearances as Governor of the Bank of England before the UK Commons' various select committees? He doesn't suffer fools gladly and was frequently quite brusque with them -- but in a polite CDN way.

Russia's disinformation campaign is now using deepfaked audio of Holocaust survivors to attack Armenia, in videos published on the 2nd anniversary of the Hamas October 7th attack on Israel.

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

Almost every one of these civilians will sue. And almost every one will win—as no thought was put behind the abuse of them by this government. The litigation will stretch from coast to coast and extend decades. Folks do not realize the mountain of lawsuits coming. It could paralyze our legal system.

Do people realize that Trump and Miller are creating so many valid civil causes of action that taxpayers will be paying billions of dollars—if not tens of billions—to their innocent victims and their families over the next 25 years?

America will be digging itself out of a hole for decades to come.

Some pushback to social media being a cause of decline along the lines of "it is the people not the guns"... my point is that social media amplifies the worst thoughts and makes them seem to be the mainstream, there is no filter

I look particularly at the other place and see folk radicalising, and then you see politicians taking these extremes as the new centre

We all sort of know this, but still wonder looking around the country and the world about the damage done by social media.

It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

In case there was any ambiguity about which enemies Trump is intent on targeting, a national security directive published last week spelled it out:

Anyone who is not with him will be considered against him — and against the United States.
