I can't stop laughing long enough to come up with something sarcastic to say about this headline.

Europe needs to get much more comfortable threatening Trump with serious deterrent measures, and if necessary implementing them. Tariffs, taxes & bans on US firms; selloffs of US Treasuries; expulsions of American troops; sanctions on individuals. Speak his language: strength.
Why should Trump stop at Venezuela? They’re champing at the bit for territorial expansion. Katie Miller, Stephen Miller‘s wife, posted a map of Greenland marked as a US territory with the words „SOON“.

It is awesome how - after decades of roaring denunciations, relentless lying and shitehousing about our craven ball-sucking to the White House and various Presidents’ wars - we have finally arrived at the truth of the matter: We are spineless worms, and we will fuck up anyone who says that is bad.

Awesome how we have an ongoing inquiry that relentlessly reveals how the state joyfully makes sport of dissidents - not because they’re any kind of threat but apparently just for fun, so the lads can have a laugh - while the government continues to criminalise protest so it can jail more dissidents.

Okay the entire post ww2 order has been smashed to smitherines, everyone’s doing what Putin wants and just bombing places because they feel like it and committing genocides, but at least, like, ten trans athletes can’t compete in sport eh?

erm, people on the left oppose Trump because e.g. he's put fascists on the streets to round up non white people, because he's overseeing a massive transfer of £ to the richest people in society, & because he's responsible for perpetuating genocide, not because he's "distasteful"

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

"But what should we do when the highborn and wealthy take to crime? Indeed, if a poor man will spend a year in prison for stealing out of hunger, how high would the gallows need to be to hang the rich man who breaks the law out of greed?"

lovely little logic loop here. the left have accurately described reality, but i still think they're wrong, so what if it was somehow in fact the left's describing of reality that perverted history to make them right. quantum politics. no fair, you changed the outcome by measuring it!
I was wondering how this might all turn out to have been my fault

“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

Not to be outdone by Macron's sycophancy, Starmer emphasises just how much he loves the taste of shoe-leather.
Keir Starmer explicitly backs Trump's attack on Venezuela.

Says he has "long supported" getting rid of Maduro, who is an "illegitimate President" and "we shed no tears about the end of his regime".

I guess what’s really despairing is that this feels like a litmus test of every part of the system, and every part of the system is failing. The media, the democrats, the army, international allies… pretty much everyone is willing to shrug their shoulders here.

It will only embolden them.

He's mad she won the Nobel Peace Prize and he didn't. That's it. That's what it's all about. Best part is she idiotically and sycophantically dedicated her prize to him and he still won't back her and prefers to publicly denigrate on a day like today.
Trump on María Corina Machado: "I think it'd be very tough for her to be the leader. She doesn't have the support or the respect within the country. She's a very nice woman but she doesn't have the respect."

Absolute snivelling cowardice from Starmer, exactly as expected.
Starmer asked to respond to Trump breaking international law and seizing the leader of another sovereign nation replies that it is his "responsibility" to have a good relationship with the US President.

"I have stepped up that responsibility [and] I do get on with President Trump," he tells the BBC

What would we usually call the type of person who would invite a fascist foreign power to attack their own country, install them in power and facilitate sales of national assets to the aggressor? Because that is what this is.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.

Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it
