Worrying to see this retweeted by an MP with a very large following on X. Mugshots are not released by the police until either an accused pleads guilty or is found guilty at trial. And who then makes sure that it is widely disseminated? The media.

Jimmy Carter Was Everything Trump Is Not
Carter may not be one of our greatest presidents, but he was honest, incorruptible, and devoted his post-presidency life to serving others – the ultimate antithesis of Trump.

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.
