This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

"The outcomes for stigmatized people who cast their lot with an autocratic force out of 'misguided conviction, or out of fear, or out of the misguided idea that that they can somehow make themselves safe by punching others in the face, historically is very bad.'" www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

Can I please commend the stark difference between the Tories and Reform on Ukraine? MANY of the most senior Tories have condemned Trump explicitly in very clear terms that allow for no ambiguity or nuance. Reform are shamefully, even treacherously silent. Never forgive. Never forget.

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

Trump is on Putin's side. That's it. That's the story and if you are on Trump and Putin's side then you're on the side of murder, fear, war and autocracy. Find it absolutely staggering that some people who you'd expect so much more of are cheering this nightmare on

Whitehouse: "Remember Trump-Russia? The Mueller report said there was Trump-Russia. The bipartisan Senate intelligence report said there was Trump-Russia. Repeated trials brought in evidence showing Trump-Russia. There was, is, and forever shall be Trump-Russia."

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

BREAKING: The DOJ has officially asked a federal judge to dismiss the corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. This comes after several federal prosecutors resigned in protest rather than comply with an order to drop the case How can MAGA possibly justify this blatant corruption?

So @chrischirp.bsky.social is logging Trump's actions under data categories derived from the typical behaviour of authoritarian states as part of an ongoing project. The conclusions are naturally alarming. open.substack.com/pub/christin...

Yes, but I think it's a mistake to think that "managed" elections are incompatible with fascism. This is exactly what has happened in Putin's Russia, which is clearly recognizable as fascist, imo. Fascism has moved on since the 1930s and is deploying new tools very effectively.

It's a tough contest, but Patel's responses here might be the most disqualifying I have seen this week, not just from high office but from the human race. We sometimes throw the word "psycopath" around too freely, but seriously this cohort are totally unmoored.
