I Don't Speak German
Daniel Harper is a researcher who goes where few others can bear to go: he listens to what the reactionaries - from the IDW to the modern day Nazis - say to each other in *their* safe spaces! In this...

I am the co-host - with my friend and comrade @danielharper.bsky.social - of a podcast called (rather eccentrically) 'I Don't Speak German'. It's about the far-right... which, sadly, is a much less niche category than when we started in 2019. idontspeakgerman.libsyn.com

“The President sent his lawyer to negotiate a settlement with a convicted sex trafficker to provide cushy accommodation in exchange for her silence on his participation in said sex trafficking” is a cold description of the facts of an insane story that the media doesn’t find worthy of scrutiny

Up to 'The Walk' in the X Files rewatch. I never appreciated what a politically furious show this was. This is about the horror of the first US/Iraq war. It has the 8yr old son of a war general buried alive in a clear reference to America's atrocities on the Basra road. Fucking hell.

It is primarily symbolic, yes. Or, to use a more apposite word, aesthetic. It is probably part of a campaign to create the aesthetic semblance of a legal argument for a third Trump term. Also, they will probably start declaring that Trump has the power to pardon state crimes.
The pardons are primarily symbolic: No one on the list has been charged with federal crimes, and Trump can't pardon those facing state charges in GA, AZ, NV and WI.
But it's another effort by Trump to recast the history of his bid to seize a second term in 2020. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

You cannot have a socialist government or a socialist economic policy in a capitalist society. That is not even like trying to run Apple software on a PC. It's more like like trying to make toast in a starling.

The point of this is probably to prepare the ground to argue that Trump must be allowed to 'run' again in 2028 because he was cheated of his election victory in 2020.
President Donald Trump has pardoned dozens of allies accused of trying to overturn his 2020 election loss, including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, Jeffrey Clark and Sidney Powell, a top US Justice Department official said reut.rs/4nIPVoT 1/5

The Dems serve corporate capital, lobbyists and donors, and US imperial interests. That is what and why they are. Anything occupying their space in US society would do the same, in the way any liquid poured into a particular pothole would assume the same shape.

He's voting No in the knowledge that there are enough Dem Senators voting Yes (those with retirement looming or long enough until they have to be reelected) to get this dirty betrayal of a deal - that Schumer himself doubtless arranged - passed. Schumer really is an utter piece of shit.
America is in the midst of a Republican-made health care crisis—a crisis so severe, so urgent, and so devastating for American families that I cannot support a continuing resolution that fails to address it.
I am voting NO.

Apparently @danielharper.bsky.social & I were praised by the Decoding the Gurus guys for our coverage of Charlie Kirk. Daniel didn't tell me because he thought be angry and go on a tear on Bluesky. My own podcasting partner is scared of my moods.

The Dems caved for two reasons. The election of Mamdani and Trump talking about ending the filibuster. Schumer et al saw the terrifying convergence of a) their base moving left and b) the prospect of their great alibi for inaction vanishing. The Dems exist to serve US imperialism and capitalism.

This is why the Right jumped on the trans issue. They know their politics is based on disgust. If your reaction to trans people is disgust, they can start you on the journey down the road of legally enshrined prejudice and discrimination, and fury at people who dare point out what you're doing.
Transphobia is a pipeline to the far right. An example:
Suzanne Moore used to be a left wing columnist at the Guardian.
Then came the anti-trans panic. Despite the Guardian also promoting it, it wasn’t enough & she left.
Moore is now complaining about wokeness over the Irish famine & colonialism.

Suzanne Moore, who would rather be locked up than pay her BBC licence fee because the BBC is too nice to trans people for her liking.

Thread. The Heritage Foundation track directly back to outright nazis.
Heritage president Kevin Roberts is on the board of a nonprofit (SLI) led by Nate Fischer who separately launched a venture in 2023 w/ Raw Egg Nationalist who “has a history of posting swastikas & other Nazi imagery,” which Fischer has called “ironic trolling” rather than “genuine Nazi belief” 1/

Trump's speech was edited. It was not misleadingly edited. This is contemptible - if entirely predictable - cowardice from the BBC.
Two top BBC leaders resign after accusations that footage of Trump's Jan. 6 speech was misleadingly edited in a documentary.
