anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle

SOFTBANK PULLED OH MY GOD IT'S OVER
As a longtime hater of the BBC, it's so gratifying to watch it be devoured by the termites it welcomed in through the front door in order to prove a worthless point to anyone who actually believed in its mission
BBC board member with Tory links ‘led charge’ in systemic bias claims, say insiders
Sources say Robbie Gibb amplified criticisms of Trump, Gaza and trans rights coverage, and had ‘a lot of oxygen in the room’

America has a substantial white Christian Evangelical population and activating them politically was a 40+ year project. These guys think they’re gonna make Christian Nationalism work here when the population is secularising and most devout Christians are among the immigrant groups they despise.
A strange post from the Ukip leader, pictured at the Aldershot memorial, but seeming to want people to believe/imagine it was the Cenotaph

Thinking of him today ngl
"Yes, we stabbed you all in the back in a way that will probably ruin thousands of lives, but the important thing is you all get back behind us so we can really make the next showdown count."
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

V good - as Tom points out, much of living in the UK today is built around either believing, or tolerating, being lied to directly to your face. Pointing out the lie will get you yelled at, castigated and publicly shamed, and underneath it all, a fear of what happens once the lie unravels

Very convenient to be able to shove the transphobia that got this girl killed under the carpet and blame phones instead and be able to deny any criticism like that
Maybe Esther doesn’t think its insulting, but its rubbing salt in the wound to the whole trans community

I would like to personally thank establishment liberals on both sides of the Atlantic for dedicating the past decade to an aggressive rearguard action against their progressive left flank which even some of them now admit produced nothing except a decade of wasted time and an ascendant far-right.
"Chuck Schumer should go ... he's no longer capable of leading the Democratic Party."
"I am an establishment Democrat and I'm here to say that Bernie Sanders is much more in line with where I and many other Democrats are today than Chuck Schumer is."
