A hallmark of fascism is to attack the judiciary.

Spontaneous applause for Ukrainian President Zelenskyi at the funeral of Pope today in Rome. russia wants to convince us that we're all alone in this fight. We are not. Video: Acyn Twitter.

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

sending the feds to cuff a local judge to send a public message to the judiciary and expelling a citizen toddler from the country and calling it a "deportation," quite the day for the "don't call it fascism" crowd

The vilest features of Trump's neo-Nazi Junta are their brazen rejection of any aspect of decency, humanity, law, service, prudence, judgement, patriotism, ethics, commonsense, responsibility, accountability, and democratic values. Their ideological sedition is driven by false piety and fraudulence.

America needs the clear, focussed and rousing reminders of what is at stake in the US and elsewhere. During the McCarthy era it was the reporting of Edward W Morrow. Now Steve Scmidt @thewarningses.bsky.social raises the alarms against the treasonous Fascist Trump regime. Follow his daily podcasts.

Jonathan Freedland in The Fuardian called out Trump as the depraved, dangerous, amoral global buffoon he is. I add, he's a Mafia driven fraudster, a neo-Nazi nincompoop, a crass disgusting self-centred dope with no humanity, a law-breaking thug, a deranged enemy of democracy, USA, and the West.

Has anyone noticed Trump's "deals" resemble the Godfather's "Make him an offer he can't refuse". I used to teach negotiation. If students produced the garbage that flows from the Fool's mouth and his negotiating strategy, I would have failed them for the absolute ignorance of context & consequence.

In case you hadn't noticed:

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

Trump's stance on Ukraine is that of a thug denied access to Ukraine's mineral assets in collusion with Putin, the Savage of the Kremlin. He has no morals, and is driven by the failed self-aggrandising ambitions of a second-rate TV Mafia Don, a stupid fool with no humanity nor honesty.

Vance's sell-out of Ukraine to the Russian invaders is pure evil. And this conscience-less fraud of a human lizard had the classless to force himself on the dying Pope Francis for a fucking photo opp. He has no judgement, no principles, is ignorant of history or imitating the Nazis.

The Trump Junta is replicating 1930s Nazi strategies on Universities. Trump and his thugs are neo-Nazis, a despicable attack on the whole of society. And the Republican Party is complicit in Nazism. Yet Americans are poorly represented among the horrified and the justly angry.

The Rubio/Trump stance on "peace" is nothing less than a sell-out of Ukraine, an appeasement of the barbaric war criminal Putin. It demonstrates the crass incompetence and malevolence of Trump's seditious Junta of neo-Nazi simpletons and its offensively ignorant foreign relations.

Not all veterans are sane. Look at the case off Hegseth, a sloppy secretary of defence, a rabid Christian regressive, a defender of the indefensible, and a cult follower of a madman in the White joining his sedition against law, democracy, government, breaching security and the national interest.

History always has a lesson.

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK. THIS IS WHY youtu.be/MdiDDJrQUJA?...
