There’s a small counterpoint to the argument that Starmer still has to be nice and diplomatic with Trump even while he’s hitting us with tariffs and threatening a NATO member because he wants to play Napoleon: it isn’t fucking working

the constitution has many flaws but addressing our current circumstances is not among them; the framers were in fact quite concerned about this kind of thing and were clear that it should not happen here

what they did not and could not guard against is the people in charge ignoring their plain text
As it happens though, the framers of the US constitution did say it: in the 4th amendment, the 5th, the 10th, etc.

What they didn’t provide for is federal immigration enforcement of any kind, only “a uniform rule of naturalization.” Nor did they give the federal government a plenary police power.
It goes without saying that in the US you’re not supposed to have a masked secret police that snatches people off the streets without knowing if they’ve committed a crime. That’s about as basic a requirement for a democracy as exists.

Governments do in fact lose because polls go down. That's actually the main mechanism by which it happens.
More from Starmer’s political cabinet today, where he told ministers to ignore Labour’s dire poll ratings

“I do not underestimate the scale of the task. But I have no doubt about this team. Governments do not lose because polls go down. They lose when they lose belief or nerve. We will do neither.”

that's so crazy. i'm sure you put him in prison and banned him from ever holding office again right
Five years ago today, the United States Capitol was attacked in a violent insurrection incited by the President of the United States for one purpose: to overturn a free and fair election and cling to power in clear violation of the Constitution.

We should all sit with this ICE murder. Any one of us could be executed by ICE, and our government wouldn’t bat an eye. Instead they’d just lie about us to the world.

ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

In a world of rising hatred, I am grateful to read stories of people rushing to help others. Bravo, Ahmed al-Ahmed,

In a world of rising division, we must resist hatred and antisemitism.

I hope that xenophobes & islamophobes are taught a lesson by al-Ahmed's actions.

“Ahmed knew they were Jews. He is a human being. He wanted to save their lives and would do it again. He didn't care about their religion or nationality," said Ahmed's lawyer, Sam Issa.

...Except if we see the anti-trans madness as the analogue of the 1880s-1930s antisemitism - a fundamentally warped worldview that reads absolutely everything wrong in the world with a small minority perceived as "subverting the natural order of the world" and being all the more threatening because

With the greatest respect Esther Ghey should be in therapy and talking to trans people instead of letting a bunch of knuckle dragging fascists lead her grief around by the nose for political profit.
