I do not like that man Ted Cruz
I do not like his far right views
I do not like his stupid chin
I do not like his smarmy grin
I do not like his lying whine
I do not like his jelly spine
I do not like him, not one bit
A craven, phony hypocrite

Hey British media,
It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning.
Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

It's a Trumpcession in the offing.
Sometimes politics is simple. A man who speaks like an idiot will do idiotic things. That's really the sum total of the political analysis you need to understand what's happening today. But political commentators and investment advisers sought to make it more complicated.

Marta is one of the best on trade, and these two paragraphs sum up brilliantly the current US situation, from the failed promise of protectionism to the strategic incoherence that prevents response.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

"If the GOP could pull Trump’s dick out of their mouths long enough for the oxygen to return to their brains, they might see how batshit crazy it is to run a govt like this... But that would require a spine and these Republicans have the collective courage of a baby deer caught in a 6-lane highway."

A brilliant analysis of the epic Brexit failure. Scorn for the liars and solidarity for the rest of us.

“We lost something intangible and yet priceless, something we might never get back: an idea of our country.”

Heartbreaking, enraging and yet, still hopeful.

Why watch Trump's inauguration? It's not like he's going to be magically uninaugurated if you do.

All it can do is irritate you, anger you and make you despair.

And frankly the same logic applies to the next four years of news from binfire America.

Maybe it's worth consciously tuning it out?

Fascinating interview with Victor Kossakovsy

Humans are nice, beautiful, good, aggressive, ugly animals who can kill. And our main activity is to kill: one billion pigs a year, 60 billion chickens, two trillion fish. We destroy mountains and don’t care.
