Lets explain how escalating/manufacturing a military confrontation with Venezuela gives the administration a legal “hook” to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, one of the oldest national-security laws still on the books. This statute allows a president to detain, restrict, or deport non-citizens

Gill was described variously as Farage’s “enforcer” and “right-hand man”. One former Ukip MEP from that time told the Guardian: “Gill was in the thick of organising. He was the right-hand version of Farage. His office was right beside Farage’s.”

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home.

I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

The President of the United States claims to have authorized the military to use lethal force on US citizens, and there’s not a single Republican who has the balls to tell him that’s both illegal and morally wrong.

I will definitely vote to keep Trump out of Parliament.
And of course not attend.
We were 100's for Zelensky. We can be zero for Trump.
MPs and peers oppose Donald Trump address to parliament during UK visit

Concerns raised address would be inappropriate because of president’s comments about UK, Nato and Ukraine

I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report

Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,

"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.
Yes, Donald Trump is Planning to Send U.S. Residents En Masse to Death Camps in El Salvador Run By Dictator Nayib Bukele
The White House meeting on Monday between Trump and Bukele isn’t quite a Hitler-Stalin summit, but in the context of this century’s politics and America’s descent into fascism, it approaches it.

Executive order to exclude all things Americans like or want to buy and all components of things Americans like or want to buy from tariffs.

Only things Americans are forced to buy by evil free-loading China and Penguin Islands or things Americans don’t buy now covered.

The best very clever deal.

WARNER: Can you explain how it helps natl security or our trade balance - I loved your fancy Greek formula which was bad math on steroids - how with a trade surplus Australia got hit with a 10% tariff as well?

GREER: Australia has the lowest rate available

We don't want your hormone stuffed meat or your chlorinated chicken! If you raise chickens properly, you don't need to bleach the shit off them. I don't care what you do with tariffs, I'm never buying US raised meat or chicken. It's gross.

I often give MSM headline-writers/editors a hard time on framing of political news.

So now a note of compliment to hed-writers + photo and layout editors who put together today's WSJ print front page. (h/t @jorgeguajardo.bsky.social )

If Dickens or Dreiser were writing this, would seem overdone
