www.cnbc.com/2025/05/31/p... US govt that has joked about invading Canada, Mexico and seizing Greenland and the Panama canal, accuses China of 'destabilizing the region' and wants us to be worried about them. Yeah ok. Sounds real legit. The USA is NOT anybody's ally. Not any more.

Der Außenminister einer rechtsextremen Regierung, die sich sehr bemüht, die Verfassung auszuhebeln und aus den USA eine Autokratie zu machen, erklärt die Einstufung einer rechtsextremen Partei in Deutschland als rechtsextrem zur „Tyrannei“. Die Welt ist echt aus den Fugen.

🚨 BREAKING: Nigel Farage is on the news saying he can be the next Prime Minister, as Reform WIN control of Kent council. Shocking. There’s only one minority responsible for rip off rent, poor wages and lack of £ for schools & hospitals. If politicians won’t say it, WE have to. 📍 across Kent

New in PN: Trump's brain is gone "Trump’s competence has always left a lot to be desired, but recent interviews show a president who’s no longer capable of even the veneer of mental acuity. Meanwhile, his party behaves like courtiers to a mad king."

“It’s pathetic,” says James Singer, who worked on the Biden and Harris campaigns. “It’s like a toddler lying about drawing marker all over the walls. Trump is president. The harm being done to the economy...are a direct result of his reckless economic policies.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Kudos Mark Carney 🇨🇦 👍👍👍 Canada issues new 5 year Canadian bonds $3.5 billion, but sold the bonds in US dollars. The bonds were 4 times oversubscribed, so there appears to be no lack of confidence in the Canadian economy. That’s just the beginning.

Trump has been in office for just six weeks, articles of impeachment have been drafted, and we wonder what took them so long..

Ah, #ElonMusk: looking for the good in nazism!

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked. The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.” This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

“Good Law Project’s position is that climate protesters are being disproportionately policed. The public interest would be much better served if the police went after real criminals.” www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Greatest media fail in history. NYT 12/21/1924

By golly, Labour couldn't bark up a more wrong Brexit tree if they tried. Strongly out of tune with 80% of their 2024 voters. Extraordinary mistake. That's substantially more than necessary to lose the 2029 GE. But hey ho, they'd rather stick their necks in the sand. yougov.co.uk/politics/art...

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak. Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

James O’Brien thinks he’s got this Liz Truss cease and desist thing all sussed out (and he’s got receipts).

My letter in today's Guardian. Just asking, like. But I think we know the answer.
