History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I am the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

About half of the government's problems would disappear if they had a proper communications machinery, and knew how to use it. Their comms are absolutely amateur for a government with such a whopping majority.

She said, “May I ask you to have mercy Mr. President on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away." If Mike Johnson thinks that’s “radical,” perhaps he has a fundamental misunderstanding of his own religion.

Asylum Seekers don't get priority access to the NHS. They can't get Council Houses. They can't claim Benefits. They don't get any of the money for their 'hotels'. All of these things are lies to generate hate to cover up the fact it is the 'hotel' owners ripping you off.
