This needs to be investigated.
The man behind donations of £200,000 to Reform is a church warden from Potters Bar, who just happens to work for a billionaire from Kazakhstan. But it's definitely not money laundering or interference in UK politics by a foreign national.

This just in from Amnesty International: "U.S. authorities must immediately release journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort. Journalism is not a crime. Reporting on protests is not a crime. Arresting journalists for their reporting is a clear example of an authoritarian practice."

Empowering teachers leads to the larger point about how Scots empower themselves. The feudal character of our political system, particularly with regards to the Councils, holds Scots back from empowering themselves. We need to highlight this to our political representatives and engineer change.

The work of resistance is hard. Godspeed to you, Chicago✊
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

This is a crucial point. A tepid agreement is Putin's victory and will constitute a psychological advantage in Russia's next bellicosities, which are poised to arrive.
Europe doesn’t need an apocalypse to lose to Russia.All it takes is a”bad peace"in Ukraine&a few well-timed crises in Europe itself.The essence of the scenario isn’t that Russia will”defeat NATO"in a major war.The essence is that the Kremlin can win without a major war

Russian terrorists have destroyed much of the energy infrastructure of Ukraine. Many areas are without power, heating and even water. Temperatures will drop to -20 C in the next few days.
Russians are preparing more attacks. Western countries could stop them but refuse to do so.

We have seen antisemitic content, non-consensual deepfakes of women, and child sexual abuse material.

If I have to keep repeating myself, I will.
A National Strike of over 12 million people for at least 3 days will shut this shit down. At some point, Americans, as a collective entity, need to say that's enough.

15 years ago I borrowed a bulletproof vest from a reporter so I could report from a war zone. I held onto it after I returned.
Last week the reporter finally asked for it back because he is headed to Minneapolis.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
This is my favorite guide.
