Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Trump just went on Fox and said radical right extremism is justified as a response to the left. If Trump wanted to explicitly encourage the right to wage violent open warfare on the left as payback for Kirk, he couldn't have done much better than that.

Trump Just Went on Fox and Issued an Unnerving Threat Against Liberals

🇳🇱 Dutch and German intelligence (MIVD, AIVD, and BND) say Russia is increasingly using chemical weapons in Ukraine, including deadly agents like chloropicrin, a serious violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention. The use of tear gas & choking agents has also become routine.

Cautionary tale on the perils of demented malignant narcissists - if in doubt, please don’t vote for them!
I went to the Senate floor to tell a story about Trump’s first 100 days - a story of daily, norm shattering corruption.
I laid out 40 different corrupt acts - each one alone could have taken down previous presidents.
1/ A 🧵 of my speech. People need to know this story.

OK, sent out this free piece on the details of the Trump "final" plan for Ukraine that has been seen by Axios. The 5 points have basically been dictated by Putin. They set up a process which would allow Russia to expand into all of its neighbors.
