Yes, exactly this: I want these maniacs to unite and demand the chief constable’s resignation in disgrace, for being in cahoots with Islamist extremists. Really put pressure on senior people to defend themselves over it, at the risk of their livelihoods, and then we’ll see what they say.

Yesterday's poll found that nearly 75% of Britons think the reason we're seeing all these flags is anti-migrant sentiment. Starmer's only reaction has been "I love flags, I live in a house full of them".
You see this also with the “we have to reduce immigration or racism will get worse”. The average person who thinks immigration is too high does not think that makes gutter racism ok and does not agree with, e.g. “let’s do a Partition scale ethnic cleansing in the UK”.
Sorry to keep banging on about it but it's literally *they are on Twitter and think it's the majority view*

Barack Obama said he wanted to look forward and not relitigate the crimes of the Bush administration regarding torture and Guantanamo Bay. That allowed for the drone war to proliferate and for even more expansion of executive power under Trump.
There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.
It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Reporter to Mamdani: President Trump says he loves NYC. Does NYC love President Trump?
Mamdani: NYC loves a future that is affordable, and I can tell you that there were more NYCers who voted for President Trump because of that focus on cost of living.

I’m not going to mention any names, but I will say that it’s very easy to charm scary narcissists actually if you talk to them very warmly, listen respectfully while they speak, make a ton of eye contact, and present your ideas enthusiastically without actually saying you don’t like their ideas.

must be nice to have options on getting paid to abuse people
NEW: Federal prison workers are jumping ship & heading to ICE for better pay + bonuses. Already BOP lost >1400 people this year, reversing all of 2024’s staffing gains. It’s an unintended consequence of Trump’s push for mass deportations
