Deb Haaland, the former secretary of the Interior who was the first Native American to serve in a presidential cabinet, on Tuesday announced a bid for governor of New Mexico.

I've written a guide to disinformation for Labour activists... it could do with some feedback. It's unpaywalled on Conflict & Democracy... open.substack.com/pub/htsf/p/d...

Five factions of Reform - not all Farage's supporters are racists - many are anti-systemic, or simply in despair about politics - but two recent polls should be a wakeup call to Labour and to the party's fractious left... open.substack.com/pub/htsf/p/f...

Mazel tov to everyone who campaigned against Harris on the Israel Gaza issue.

Trump talking about leveling Gaza and emptying it out has always been the plan obviously, but hearing him say it out loud is still shocking.

This @washingtonpost.com story is so important that I'm gifting it. These people appear to be operating totally illegally and outside the Constitution -- and they know it. wapo.st/40LVERn

This is a war between a fascistic cult and a conventional political party. That is, not a fair fight. And much of the media is not providing this necessary context.

Trump: "The US will take over the Gaza Strip."

BUTTTT THE TWOOOOOO CANDIDATESSSSS ARE EQUALLLLLLLLY BADDDDDDDD!!

The Washington Post editorial this morning essentially equating Biden's questionable pardons with Trump's outrageous Jan. 6 pardons was unconscionable. The newspaper I've been part of for 48 years has utterly lost its soul.

As journalists we have to walk a fine line, and sensitive stories often need to pass internal legal reviews before publication. I like how Wired handled this — the headline doesn’t mince words and actually shows you how Musk’s salute is being received by Nazis www.wired.com/story/neo-na...

Scrambling after defending the loudest Nazi on the planet:

honestly, this is what will come here if we don't step back from the brink...

New in PN: The shitcoin presidency "The Trump family used the presidency to enrich themselves in egregiously corrupt ways the first time around, but the memecoin stunt suggests that owning a hotel by the White House and forcing the Secret Service to spend at Trump properties will soon seem quaint."

hey hey, where K-Hive @?

Moses “Shyne” Barrow went from being a rapper to a politician in his native Belize. His life is the subject of a new Hulu documentary, “The Honorable Shyne.”

If you want to understand the far right, violent extremists, White Supremacists, and Christian nationalists, these are the journalists, researchers, academics and other experts that monitor, research and provide analysis on all the flavors of the rising fascist authoritarian movement.

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

I still don't think people are truly prepared for what happens when a corrupt supreme court and a handful of petulant billionaires turn all safety, consumer protection, labor, and environmental protection regulators into the policy equivalent of decorative gourds

this man is talking to himself from his alt to prove it’s not his alt.

I don't think people understand the gravity of making librarians and teachers *criminally liable* for disseminating information. Fascist shit, from a known playbook. No one has the luxury of being surprised anymore.

Are there no hawks in the democratic party? Biden is amazing in foreign policy, but I'd prefer a peace through strength approach...somewhere in between General Wes Clarks campaign in Bosnia & Ghadaffi. LOL.. why can't we just work with our allies to neutralize the situation?

There's a new database of known hate symbols on the block and this one looks like it's the largest and most comprehensive/modern in town. An excellent resource from Global Project Against Hate and Extremism globalextremism.org/global-extre...
