Remember in May when Trump gave asylum to 17 family members of the Sinaloa cartel after making a deal with El Chapo’s son? And did you know in 2013, El Chapo bribed Juan Hernandez- who trump just pardoned - in exchange for protection in Honduras? I’m sure it’s all just a coincidence.

Reagan was like Joe Free Trade. He and Thatcher are the avatars of the neoclassical economics resurgence, trade liberalization, etc. good or bad this is pure reality. The idea that this conversation is even happening shows how much we’re in the mad king 2+2=7 world.
Trump: "They cheated on a commercial. Ronald Reagan loved tariffs and they said he didn't. And I guess it was AI or something. They cheated badly. Canada got caught cheating on a commercial. Can you believe it?"

That Trump got away with his mishandling (theft?) of classified documents is bad enough but that he then uses classified documents as an excuse to go after his opponents is just… no words. We live in the worst timeline.

Kudos to @mehdirhasan.
Not only did he invite me on his show in 2018 to talk about my investigation into Farage’s funders (no UK channel ever did).
But he also asked a former colleague of Nathan Gill’s in the EU parliament whether UKIP had ever taken Russian bribes 🔥

No sudden rupture is now required for the far right to take power in this country. For what we're seeing is a steady normalisation of extremists by the Conservative and Labour Parties, BBC, Telegraph, Mail and others. A shift once considered unthinkable beings to look acceptable, even inevitable.🧵

It's easy to scoff at Trump designating as a "terrorist organization" something that's not an *organization* at all.
I have different view.
When you declare an idea rather than an organization to be terrorism, you can declare *anyone* a terrorist.
And that is what he will do.

2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

As I stated at the time the Court's immunity decision came out, not only would it not prevent a future Trump from going after previous presidents, it gives him immunity if he orders his DOJ and intel officials to fabricate evidence to support his accusations! Which...is exactly what they are doing.
Remember when the Supreme Court’s rationale for “absolute immunity” was that it would prevent politically motivated investigations against former political opponents?
REPORTER: Gabbard has submitted a criminal referral. Who should the DOJ target?
TRUMP: It would be President Obama. And Biden was there with him ... the leader of the gang was Obama. Barack Hussein Obama. He's guilty. This is treason.
