Probably the last PM to be interested in winning the battle of ideas, it’s refreshing to remember that politicians can develop arguments rather than reheat soundbites. Perhaps it’s just me, but a lot reads like an implicit criticism of Starmer. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

As I expected, the government ignored the 9:30 a.m. deadline set by the federal court in Maryland. The court moved the deadline to 11:30 a.m. As I expected, the government ignored the 11:30 deadline. A 1:00 p.m. court hearing was scheduled. As I expected, the government demanded it be canceled.

One man is standing up for the rule of law in Britain. His reward is to be savagely attacked by right wing think tanks, newspapers & politicians. They understand where the battle against populism is taking place. And they've marshalled their forces accordingly. iandunt.substack.com/p/a-good-man...

Signal for classified attack plans against Houthi rebels. Now, Gmail for “sensitive military positions and powerful weapons systems relating to an ongoing conflict.” Might as well shout it from the rooftops. The carelessness is staggering – and makes all of us less safe.

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

Morning America. Want to see how the US’s global standing is doing? Here’s the UK’s biggest radio chat show: “Never has a major international scoop fallen into the hands of a journalist with less work. This is emblematic of…a government stripped of all competence. There are no adults in the room.”

Jeopardizing our national security. Putting the lives of pilots and the success of operations at risk — via text chat. The Trump Administration’s arrogance is only exceeded by its dangerous incompetence.

First off, Pete Hegseth is a disgrace and should be fired. Second, instead of being an asshole and trash-talking the journalist, he should be thanking him for not posting anything top-secret that’s still to come.
