If you look at the men & the think tanks behind Brexit, it is the exact same men & the exact same think tanks behind Trump, and the exact same media too. Maybe one day people will see this.

Quick analysis of The Times today:
Wall to wall negative coverage of Labour’s budget. An editorial that tuts about lack of growth but takes no responsibility. And a double page ad to join Farage/Reform.
Absolutely no analysis on how rightwing ideology - including Brexit - has been utterly ruinous.

That Jair Bolsonaro is serving a 27 year prison sentence in Brazil for attempting a coup, while an America president who did the same thing is not only free, but trying to help him escape is exactly the kind of thing that makes the U.S. a third world country.

Please follow this fucking legend @authorstuartmiller.bsky.social 🙏
Sometimes, the best way to move on is to internally forgive w/o letting them know
We can internally realize, they were: close-minded, toxic, stuck in their ways, etc., unwilling to accept & work on themselves to overcome their struggles, demons, etc.
It's usually best to silently forgive & move on

They picked the wrong veteran to screw with.
I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.
If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.
