Old guy with a beard. Unhealthy obsession with the state of democracy in the world. Teaches data visualisation. Talks on mental health. Publishes the Substack 'Untethered' about motivation, addiction and recovery. North Wales, UK.
And all because he wants us to forget about the Epstein files. Whatever is in them, it must be bad.

I haven't stood close to him, and wouldn't want to, but my guess is he smells like a wet dog. Definitely past his prime.

Having watched the videos, the facts from my eyes arrived at my brain some time ago. We need a new word. This is beyond gaslighting.

that makes me absolutely f'ing furious. How dare the American government try to impose its morally bankrupt laws on the UK, a sovereign state with a Prime Minister who, unlike the US, does not have a criminal record and is not an adjudicated sex offender.

I'd love to see the UK take the lead here. We don't want child sexual abuse piped to our phones in the UK, even if Elon Musk calls that freedom of expression. And when Rep. Anna Luna threatens to sanction Prime Minister Starmer and 'Britain as a whole' if X is banned,

What did he expect her to have learned? That might is right. That everyone needs to be afraid of ICE and be cowed into submission. I think that might not work.

They certainly seem to be enjoying themselves. But I'm sure they would be even happier if ICE would allow them to wear brightly coloured costumes with tights and a dramatic logo on their chests. The idiots are living in a Marvel fantasy.

I wonder who are the '3,000 suspected terrorists' he is referring to? How do you define a 'suspected terrorist'? Is it someone who is a Muslim or someone applying for asylum? The extent to which Farage emulates Trump in all his intolerant, vicious ways is chilling.

What morality? His morality doesn't exist, so there really is nothing stopping him.

rather than a voluntary association like other parties? I'll give you a clue: any profit generated by a voluntary association must be reinvested to further the organization's goals, not used for private gain. In a LTD company the profit can be paid directly to the shareholders as dividends.

So either he wants to steal Greenland's natural resources (quite likely) or he thinks it would look better to his base if he could portray increasing the military presence as an uninvited invasion. To paraphrase Adam Serwer, 'The aggression is the point'.

So if Trump is concerned about Russian threats, he could easily increase the US military presence on the island without any conflict with the Danes.
