Sorry Sharron, you've forced our hand. They're 14 minute cities now. We will keep knocking a minute off until you comply

People saying this is made up don't know the man. I was in the Oval Office and I'll never forget Trump rising to break the silence with those same words of Kierkegaard's that he's repeated to me so many times. "Tears" he said, glassy-eyed but stoical, "are the silent language of grief".

Ain’t I been telling you that there really is an actual overlapping, international “omnicause”, and it’s just plain old fascism: paranoid, hysterical, obsessed with crackpot conspiracy theories, worshipping violence and force, and determined to beat the fuck out of humanity until we are compliant.

Luke Akehurst's face is deepest red.
Luke Akehurst claims that the faction he is part of, that wrecked, lied & smeared in order to regain control of the party, then ruthlessly purged the left & hollowed out the membership, & which now oversees a party polling at under 20%, has the best interests of Labour at heart

My gosh. Alex Pretti was notifying neighbors that Trump and Vance's agents were chasing a family. A mob of agents then tackled him and broke his rib.

He thought he was going to die.

Then the very next week, he came back out to support his neighbors.

And a mob of agents killed him.

Left: Matt Goodwin appeals to the people of Gorton and Denton, "Let's work together and make history, pushing this country in a different direction"

Right: Matt Goodwin says immigrants from "Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, China..undermine the foundations of this country"

Matt Goodwin makes a living out of railing against university educated elites & his whole schtick is "he was the first person in his family to go to university", which is a bit weird given that his Dad, now being heavily invoked for his Manchester connection, appears to have a string of degrees.

The use of the word “divided” is interesting to me because it connotes the idea that there are two different positions across from each other, even when the reality is that one side is terrorizing the other out of desire to assert violent domination and unjust supremacy

This is how the BBC is reporting Matt Goodwin's selection as Reform's candidate in Gorton and Denton.

He's not an academic. He holds no academic position and hasn't done for quite some time.

Calling transphobia a 'gateway drug' to the far right undersells it. It's pure accelerant. Grimly fascinating to guess what crankery becomes any famous transphobe's secondary obsession, cos they all have one: 15 minute cities are fascism! Grok noncing is cool! ICE are good! We should kill all dogs!

The Democrats want to moderate Trump's fascist clampdown by preventing ICE from entering hospitals.

But what if the terrorists are hiding under the hospitals?

Obama, Biden, Harris etc are just smol babbies that couldn't do anything at all and should NEVER be blamed for anything.

But *you* random person who couldn't bring yourself to vote for genocide. This is ALL on you.

Seems to have slipped under the radar with the Andy Burnham stitch-up & paramilitary executions in the US, but authoritarianism in the UK just took a massive leap forward, with police forces falling under direct political control.

Worth noting that this is Labour implementing Reform UK policy.

UK PEOPLE: this is REALLY IMPORTANT. If the government bans under-16s from using VPNs, then logically they must intend to REQUIRE AGE VERIFICATION FOR ALL VPN USE. Which will affect adults too!

Just got BANNED from my local pub for my views! I just happen to believe that Charlton are a much better football team than Millwall, it just *happened* to be a pub just next to the Millwall stadium an hour before the game was due to start, plus it was a bit cold, hence the scarf.

Great. Everything is so fucked that somehow I agree with Greenwald.

He nails it here, though.
