Just wait until his term expires, and he has to leave the White House...
I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

“Racism has become thoroughly detached from “serious” politics”
It has been reduced to language.
So, instead of fearing accusations of racism, politicians now exploit them as petty, name-calling distractions from what really matters.
It’s an ugly, cynical deceit.

No shame, no opprobrium: racism is priced in now. Of all the right’s victories, this one has been critical | Jason Okundaye
In this age of Tory nativism and Faragist populism, the question isn’t ‘is this person a bigot’? Now it is ‘does that matter at all?’ says Guardian writer Jason Okundaye

The main story on BBC 6 Music News this morning is that a ‘boat carrying migrants is on its way to France’
Delivered in the same upbeat tone as England winning the women’s Euros.
The migration ‘debate’ in this country is unmoored from reality, and the media-political complex is feeding it

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

we revealed in FT two years ago that Mandelson stayed at Epstein's luxury house in Manhattan while the financier was in jail for soliciting a minor
he was deputy prime minister at the time
always seemed weird that broadcasters didn't really pick this up at the time

And the 'strength of feeling' of everyone - and I'm confident in saying there are fucking millions of us - who don't want to live in a country where racists shout the odds and the rest of us have to accommodate their small-minded ignorance?

The PM's spokesman tells lobby journalists just now that the Government is not looking at suspending the ECHR (as Reform are demanding)
But he refused to condemn Farage's language about an "invasion" of illegal migrants, instead saying the PM "recognises" people's "strength of feeling" on the issue

We can blame the BBC for his ubiquitousness - currently 4 MP's, yet they broadcast his 'manifesto' live on all platforms this morning.
Then there's all his Question Time invites over the past 15 years at the expense the Greens and Lib Dems etc etc...

Call it basic hope, but I still feel Farage's appeal is only based on the flimsiest version of celebrity, and without him, the whole Reform charade collapses. Current affairs is in a position to kill it all stone dead, but they daren't because clicks and virals.

I think the basic problem with the news at the moment, everywhere, is that someone's pub opinion becomes the headline, becomes the story, and a lot of the time, that's not a headline, it's not a story, and it's debatable whether most of that stuff's in the public interest anyway.

Because I'm a sucker for punishment, I'm rewatching The World at War at the moment. And, although history never quite repeats itself in the exact same ways, lots of the echoes of now are uncanny.

Black Sabbath transcended genre. It's trivial, if 100% accurate, to call them foundational for Metal and Goth. But any human with a gut can feel it wrenched by those riffs, and any human with a heart can feel the desolate, woebegone emotion of Ozzy Osbourne's voice. R.I.P.
