Rage against the Regime (BBC2 ) is well named. It provokes rage watching how women are treated in Iran. Also makes me question voluntary acceptance of hijab elsewhere.

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie."
My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:

A frustrating thing for me right now is the media narrative that RFK Jr is just an “anti-vaxxer” when he has said so many crazy things about other stuff over the years. We compiled 10 nutty clips on various topics, which still barely scratches the surface. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
