The modern right. Not just pogroms but privatised pogroms.
Guy Dampier recognises there is no state capacity to do this. The 2 million deportations (he even recognises half are imaginary) in 3 days would be a business opportunity!

Today marks the 3rd anniversary of the Ukraine invasion.

Yet efforts to enforce sanctions on Russian timber have been patchy, failing to result in proper penalties & emboldening launderers.

Urgent action must be taken to extend and enforce sanctions. 🔗 bit.ly/4aqVB1U

I was going to say that all the people writing "maybe Trump will be good this time" pieces are going to look so ridiculous. But they already look ridiculous and don't seem to care.

I am as delighted by the nominations for THE SUBSTANCE as I am aghast at the lack of nominations for I SAW THE TV GLOW. The Academy continues their unbroken streak of getting as much wrong as right. And so it goes.
