Cowardice from the BBC. Donald Trump is in fact almost cartoonishly corrupt: he sells pardons, accepts gold bars, and sells his own cryptocurrency and souvenirs. There is surely no more bribe-able head of state on the planet.
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

My boy, Raj, is 3 yrs old today. We got him on Valentines Day when he was this bit of fluff. He is the direct descendant of our last Siamese, Thai, who was 20 when he passed. He was such a great cat I wanted another just like him as Raj will most likely be my last cat.

It is a rainy Saturday here too. We are so far away yet so many things are similar. And I too will be stitching this afternoon.
Well we have had our first hard frost so the evergreens have taken centre stage in my tiny garden. When I first moved into my house I thought I would do flower arranging so planted foliage plants and now am so happy I did that. 🌱 #sixonSaturday It’s going to rain all day so I will be stitching.

Why did not a single male reporter who were standing next to the president and the female reporter he called "piggy" say a word to the president about this and call him out then and there? Those who keep quiet in these moments are part of the problem.

Lovely! We had similar snow for a few minutes a week ago. But back to normal warm conditions now. No hard frost yet. I still need to dig and bring in my Mexican sage. But it is only thing blooming in garden right now. Oh except one lone Foxglove.
It’s snowing on my tiny garden!

No matter how hard I try, I've become desensitized to a lot of the really awful behavior we see from him. I just don't want to give him any more space in my brain. But this gross, misogynistic incident makes my skin crawl in a way that a whole lot of other items don't. Can't stop thinking about it.
I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”

He will continue teaching.

This is real. A government agency calling Americans performing their democratic right of protest “imbecilic morons.” This Trump regime is a poison and never should have gotten power. A total disgrace.
