Spain wants to regularise half a million undocumented migrants. Meanwhile, the rest of Europe is busy toughening migration rules. Is Spain the very last country on the continent to have a positive message around migration?
Listen: Spain wants to regularise half a million undocumented migrants, in full contrast with European migration policies

Brexit triggered a marked lurch from ‘centrist’ right to right, then far right in our politics. The voice of the liberal majority has been ignored ever since. A combination of fear and cynicism by politicians, too invested in the populist lies they’ve told, to admit what a fuck-up it’s all been.

This. I'm not a BBC-basher but IMO Mason is a poor political journalist. It's not that he's 'biased' per se, it's that he reports politics as a kind of giggly spectator sport and as such is preoccupied with spectacle, talking up 'exciting' events rather than analysing them. 1/2

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.

Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.

Well, here’s a link:

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see.

Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him.

It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

In case you missed it: My suggestion that Farage was whispering to Trump behind the scenes while Trump was going after Greenland has been essentially confirmed.

As @jamesdaustin.bsky.social notes: Working against your country's interest with a semi-hostile state - there's a word for that.

The US president took his bullying doctrine to Davos and hit a wall of opposition. If this creates a new western alliance against him, all to the good, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

Trump has lost his mind. His speeches are insane, misspelled ravings about the 2020 election, filled with bad grammar and shotgun caps. If this guy were a mayor in Anytown, USA, he would be told politely but firmly to surrender the gavel and get medical help.

I know we normalize everything this thoroughly abnormal man does but to reiterate: the president is SUING a newspaper over a poll result he doesn’t like and claims not to believe.

He is suing over a poll. Insanity. 25th Amendment territory. Again.
Trump says he's adding his bad poll numbers to his lawsuit against the Times. Deeply embarrassing stuff.

457 UK armed forces personnel died in Afghanistan during the 20-year deployment.
This is a fucking hideous thing to say. Even by his non-existent standards.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

Farage has the unbelievable nerve to talk at Davos about Britain’s “moral decline”.

This repulsive piece of shit IS Britain’s moral decline. He’s betrayed our country for self-interest, prejudice and greed. Shame on everyone who’s allowed that.

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

The 15 richest people in America saw their collective wealth jump nearly $1 trillion during Trump's year back in office.

Many of them were standing alongside Trump at his inauguration one year ago today.

How are you doing?
