Q: How do we know Farage is racist, always has been racist and always will be racist?
A: Every racist thing he’s said over the last 50 years.
And every racist thing he’s done or proposed as a politician.
The huffing and puffing about calling him what he is can stop any time it likes.

Another evidence that Trump is fully aligned with Moscow—something I've been saying all along.
This so-called DC plan is Russia's plan, and would amount not only to Ukraine's surrender, but also to an incentive for Russia to attack Europe.
A non-starter and a disgrace.

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

You may not be able to afford rent and groceries, and your health insurance may be about to skyrocket in 42 days, but the good news is that the Saudis got F-35s, nuclear tech, and security guarantees after putting hundreds of millions in Trump’s pocket.

"We've seen the early stages of what economists call stagflation. The '-flation' part is inflation, and you've all felt that at the grocery store. The 'stag-' part is stagnation, which is we've got rising unemployment and slower economic growth than we otherwise would have."

There is a direct line between Donald Trump trying to destroy the BBC and him excusing the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Trump hates the independent free press – whether in the US, Saudi Arabia or the UK. We will always defend it.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Sometimes, a front page can sum up quite a lot that’s wrong with the world. Including the paper itself which has been so complicit in getting us to a place where children born to refugees could be deported, Trump celebrates despotic wealth and Boris Johnson’s sister moans about not being rich. Ugh.

On Nigel Farage's racism, of course it is possible that someone can believe one thing when they're a teenager and something completely different when they're an adult.
But where is the evidence that has happened in this case?
Instead all of the evidence points in the complete opposite direction

So, naturally, Farage scuttled off to Washington to help him. As did his own propaganda outlet, GBnews… conducting its interview with Trump from a studio somewhere up his backside.
