Well Trump could issue an Executive Order instructing Congress to impeach him. After all, only days ago JD Vance said the President's desires can't just be ignored.

Bingo

"Russia used disinformation campaigns to undermine Western democracies, and Brexit was no exception. Reports from parliament’s intelligence and security committee highlighted the extent of Russian influence, with cyber campaigns and misinformation spreading instability in the UK and across Europe."

Last year @georgemonbiot.bsky.social wrote for us about Labour’s enthusiastically inherited plans for carbon capture. Now, we’ve started legal action to challenge their £10bn subsidy for a carbon capture plant in Teesside: goodlaw.social/9sgq
