Same old right-wing strategy. In the UK, the Tories spent their 14 years in power doing exactly this to the NHS.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGLXa9r...

Musk’s fascist mindset is so clearly evident. What he means is - Free speech is for me, not for thee. I own it now.

This is probably the most accurate take.

The inner voice ….

I heard the Pope dissed the shit out of JD Vance. Fuck yeah. Get his ass, Francis.

The new iconic photo that i predicted ultimately destroys the relationship:

👀 Down 63% over year in France. Down 59% in Germany (location of Tesla’s European factory) while EV market grew by 50%. Market share dropped from 14 to 4%. Can investors afford Musk?

A U.S. occupation of Gaza will turbocharge terrorist recruitment and global anti-American violence, Robert A. Pape writes.

From the paper that so aptly gave us Lizzie the Lettuce (aka Liz Truss). The Daily Star reports from London; “A worldwide hunt has been launched for Donald Trump’s tiny brain after it escaped from his head and made him say some crazy stuff about tariffs” Spot on, Star.

Donald Trump: Comply with my demands or I will hurt my own people! Canada: Ok, we will keep doing a thing we’ve been doing. Mexico: Ok, we will do a thing we did under the last guy. Trump: I WIN!!!! Fucking idiot.

Trump complains that the European Union doesn’t take American cars. He’s right. There are two important reasons for this: 1. American cars are shit. 2. 83% of US car production is of trucks, for which there is little demand in Europe. A trade war won’t change these.

Yep…

Well said, Pete Buttigieg
