Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.
Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

Hegseth is trying to be a smooth-talker today during his confirmation hearing…
But he’s sexist, against diversity in our armed forces, and is unqualified to serve as Secretary of Defense.
That’s the substance over style that the Senate must focus on.

One of America's most famous cities is on fire and the richest man in the country hasn't paid a penny to assist people whose lives have been destroyed by the fires.
He has, however, been busy spewing disinformation and encouraging people to loot. Because worthless trolls are like that.

The UK public overwhelmingly say US oligarch Elon Musk is a threat to democracy and trying to sabotage their country. The majority see him as a joke and opportunist.
"Musk is a deeply unpopular figure in the UK, with a net favourability rating of -35, lower than Nigel Farage or Tommy Robinson."

It's just insane how many Americans think Trump is better for the economy than Biden.
BREAKING — Joe Biden has pulled off the impossible: positive job growth EVERY SINGLE MONTH of his presidency.
The last negative month was the last full month of Trump’s first term, December 2020.

I just knew that Cummings hadn't disappeared from the scene. The UK's version of Steve Bannon.
Dominic Cummings is reportedly advising Elon Musk on his interventions in British politics. Chimes with what I have heard recently of Cummings' interest in harnessing big tech to launch a challenger movement in the UK.
Elon Musk and Dominic Cummings 'in plot to sabotage UK politics'
Boris Johnson's former No 10 adviser is planning a new 'StartUp Party' which he hopes will smash the traditional Westminster system and is understood to be communicating with Mr Musk on WhatsApp.
