Yes, this is definitely the first case in human history that a nation bleeding out under attack has a knife by its throat from yesterday’s biggest friend in need that went bonkers and switched to Al Capone-style racketeering amid war.

James Rodden is an ICE prosecutor who was just unmasked for running a vitriolic, racist account on X where he called himself a fascist and implied that migrants should be “fed into tree shredders”.

This is real. And I have never seen the competence, morals, standards and communication strategy of any government collapse so fast.

I'm not having Fraser Nelson playing dumb on the rise of racism on the right after years spent printing Murray, Liddle, Taki and Shriver. I literally had a DM row with him years ago where I said this would happen.

Obviously his support message isn’t new. Obviously it’s bad in any case that the world’s richest man can use the platform he owns—and manipulates—for this. But Musk is now effectively (at least) co-President of the USA. You tell me what that makes his ongoing interference in the German election.

False witness police are the standard in Georgia at unlawful trials against regime opponents. Here we see activist Gela Khasaia's false witness policeman rehearsing his text that he had learned by heart before entering the courtroom. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

One year ago today.

Former Prime Minister and current opposition leader Giorgi Gakharia, along with his party member, former ambassador to Germany Elguja Khokrishvili, was met by thugs and attacked at Tbilisi International Airport upon returning from the Munich Conference.

Pizza Medici, a small local business, has been broken into and robbed twice after they joined the January 15 strike for new elections and the release of the unlawfully detained. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

The regime in Georgia does find itself in a very, very peculiar position. It has now put all cards on a lightning speed dictatorship, outlawing all protests, and jailing everyone (note: the jailing is to a large degree very arbitrary and depends a lot on a random policeman's random irritation). 1/

It’s hard to admit, but at this point, I’m honestly low-key scared. The newly announced laws literally mean the liquidation of online media outlets—the main pillar of our resistance. TV channels are already on their last breath.

Breaking: Ex-Mayor of Tbilisi, Gigi Ugulava was "released" after 48 hours of detention and was immediately arrested on criminal charges.

Just in case you needed to hear this today….

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

It's a delight to see the internet used as intended

US healthcare is off the rails. “The parents of a 22-year-old Wisconsin man who died after an asthma attack have filed a lawsuit against Walgreens and UnitedHealth Group’s pharmacy benefit manager after they said the price for his medication suddenly rose from $66 to $539.”

Day 63 large-scale, continuous. Day 93 overall. In parallel to Georgia scoring a major victory in the Council of Europe, things seem on the rise again in Tbilisi as well! ✊🏻🇬🇪🇪🇺 #GeorgiaProtests

yyyyyeah maybe we shouldn’t just “relax”

The Director of the National Seismic Monitoring Center, Tea Godoladze, has left the country. The scientist made the decision to leave due to the threat of unlawful imprisonment. This was preceded by verbal attacks from top GD officials and an organized smear campaign against her. #terrorinGeorgia

If Viktor Orban really blocks European sanctions at a key moment for the war, it’ll be absolutely clear that in this big game for the security and future of Europe, he is playing in Putin’s team, not in ours. With all the consequences of this fact.

Helpful!

This is hell: Nutsa Eremiani, wife of arrested protester Anri Kvaratskhelia, says she suffered a miscarriage due to the stress caused when around 15 policemen rushed into their home, dragged her husband out of the apartment half-naked, and forcefully gripped her neck. #terrorinGeorgia

🤔 Isn't transporting people what passenger trains are for? 😳 But more passengers means more 🚆🚅, more 👨‍🦱👩, more 🛠️, and not necessarily more 💶 🇪🇺 In 2025 the Commission will propose a Regulation on rail ticketing 🎫 - but why do rail firms not really want it? Explained 👇 jonworth.eu/more-passeng...

The ban on any face cover, including scarves, is now active in Georgia. And people are planning a march with face covers. ✊🏻 #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

Zviad Kharazishvili (Khareba) was reportedly taken to the clinic with injuries — the doctor that examined him confirmed. “He didn’t sustain any fractures but has several severe tendon injuries and significant damage to the shoulder joint,” said Sopho Mikiashvili, radiologist at the Aversi clinic.

My friend Keti. Absolutely harmless. Just the other day she was telling me how careful she is at protests, albeit persistent in her determination. She has been released already but she’ll have a sham trial anyway. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests #NewElectionsforGeorgia 📷 MOSE

A short while ago, the regime police just attacked people for no reason at Rustaveli Avenue. Likely, because there were few people passing by at that particular moment, they wanted to demonstrate some muscles. ~5 were arrested. #GeorgiaProtests #terrorinGeorgia 📷 @jezko.bsky.social

This is is my friend Keti in the red jacket. She was dragged and arrested for no reason whatsoever, she was just standing on Rustaveli and not even blocking the road or anything. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

JUST IN: GD coordinated the July 5, 2021 pogrom against journalists with the Church of 🇬🇪 leadership. Irakli Shaishmelashvili the recently-exiled ex-high official of the special task forces recalls the July 5, 2021 pogrom against the media under the guise of anti-LGBT stance and family values. 1/

Happening now: More than 100 masked men have stormed one of the fitness centers in Tbilisi, TV Pirveli reported. They’re shouting that they’re looking for Giorgi Ubilava — is a member of the thug gang led by Giorgi Shinjikashvili, the Deputy Governor of Shida Kartli. 1/

Activist and journalist Eliso Janashia was attacked by regime enthusiast babushkas in Poti. Even her hair was pulled out. It's quite graphic. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

Photographer MOSE who posts pictures from the rallies was just attacked, although he managed to avoid a hit and even hit the attacker back. The attacker demanded he stop posting “pictures full of crowds.” #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests
