With every new policy and offhand remark, #Trump belies the imaginary versions of himself that inspired many of his supporters. Gaslighting, Orwellian messaging, collective narcissism, pensioner populism, #FoxNews & a mass of middle aged &/or low info voters www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Oh boy do I have the historical anecdote for this: late 1930s, the American Silver Shirts—initials, S.S., deliberately chosen, decided not to do the sieg heil, writing in their minutes that it was “too fascist”—with “too” underlined. Goldilocks fascism.

In case anyone is still uncertain whether Trump and Musk are allied to Putin — @bylinetimes.bsky.social has been covering the Trump alliance for six years, and we cottoned onto Musk quite quickly

Another conservative “intellectual” admits that he is bitterly disappointed that the wallet inspector did not, despite assurances, return his wallet and candidly regrets his recent essay The West Must Let the Wallet Inspector Do His Job

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

"Welcome to the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference, a fatuous echo chamber of self-congratulation", says John Crace. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I remember when someone getting coldly dunked like Tucker is here would have mattered.

Ok that made me laugh

The UK welcomes the biggest #battery to join its grid, while Australia’s Eku Energy says it has energised another two batteries in the UK

Be not afraid The UK’s GDP is 50% bigger than Russia’s and GDP per capita three times as great (as with most EU countries). The economic power of the EU alone (without the UK) is EIGHT times larger than Russia. The EU is a superpower. Russia is not. And should not be treated like one

"Looking at photos of the American and Russian delegations meeting today in Saudi Arabia, I had two reactions. The first was my hope that this American mission abroad fails. The second was how discomforting it is to root for that failure."

As Lavrov chats to Rubio in Saudia Arabia, Putin ramps up the war

The great stitch-up begins in Riyadh today, as the US government seeks to hand eastern Ukraine, bound and gagged, to Putin. This, as Trump knows and wants, will encourage Putin to threaten and destabilise the rest of Europe. *Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.*

"Lachlan’s efforts to buy out his siblings are likened to Rupert’s equally brutal buyout of his three sisters in the 1990s." Read the article by @paddymanning.bsky.social here: www.crikey.com.au/2025/02/1...

False flag attempt by #Murdoch media to provoke #antisemitism from Muslim community in Sydney, gone wrong. What are the owners of #Fox deflecting from? Why were Sydney management following Carlson few years ago, to infer the bosses' views? #auspol2025 www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/if-...

UNBELIEVABLE. Am I the only person who remembers who Kirill Dmitriev is? He was in the Seychelles in January 2017 plotting with Trump envoy Erik Prince, a Jared Kushner envoy, Emirati Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed and a host of shady characters who'd worked to steal the 2016 election for Trump.

Many journalists know Viktor Orbán’s longtime press secretary, Bertalan Havasi, whose job was to block press access to him and hinder our work. He abruptly resigned days ago. Gov’t sources say the reasons are private, not political, and Orbán’s team is struggling to find a replacement.

"Anti-migrant politics will not build a single house, staff a single hospital or raise anyone’s wages. Instead, by echoing its rhetoric, the government is simply fuelling the rise of Reform UK" Well done to these Labour MPs, trade unionists, and members. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Cultural Marxism of the Frankfurt School was a target of the NSDAP in Weimar Germany; reemerged as a target described by white Christian nationalists & far right ideologues, media & influencers as ‘#woke’ & 'politically correct' #antisemitism educationtrainingsociety.wordpress.com/2025/02/17/c...
