@mrjamesob.bsky.social That 21 yr old caller (sorry, didn't catch the name), was so insightful and articulated what happened to him and how it can happen to young people so incredibly well.
It also made me think how 'compassion for the conned, contempt for the conmen' applies here too...

So Nigel Farage has chosen to explain away Trump’s outrageous remarks about President Zelensky instead of doing the right thing and condemning them. Deeply disappointing but not at all surprising.
He sounds like a spokesman for Trump. He certainly doesn’t speak for Britain.

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend.
I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

After their visit, there will be no gold left there...
President Donald Trump said his administration is going to audit the U.S. gold reserves kept at Fort Knox in Kentucky.
“We’re going to go to Fort Knox, the fabled Fort Knox, to make sure the gold is there,” President Trump said Wednesday on Air Force One.

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.
It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.
