NEW: Last week’s newsletter had ‘IT’S A COUP’ in big red letters on front page of NYT. Well, guess what? It still is. We have to stop framing what’s happening as in any way normal.

NEW: Last week Trump announced 'Stargate' a $500bn AI sci-fi inspired plan to boost US economy. This week, I turn the spotlight on the man who stood behind Trump, lesser-known tech bro, Larry Ellison, his special friend Tony Blair & how they're coming for the UK too open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Just thinking about how once the Kremlin’s oligarchs pillaged their nation’s resources - dividing it all up for themselves (“privatizing”), they stole everyone’s pensions. The evidence of this is what Magnitsky found, btw, and why he was murdered. This spurred us - when we were a democracy… /1

Just thinking about our group of late teenage boys drinking-in Eraserhead on a rented VHS in the living room of a council house in provincial Scotland. How much we loved and needed that strangeness.
