Unless GB News becomes as successful as Fox News (and BBC/ITV/Channel 4 disappear), #Reform UK will never break the 40% ceiling and will never govern. #Populism absolutely relies on lies and disinformation. The appalling and woeful US media allowed it, but the British media won’t

Come on @ASCO, it’s time to speak out and condemn what is happening at the #CDC and department of health and human services under RFK Jr. It’s not just US public health & scientific research at risk here - there are global consequences & implications. #medtwitter #medonc #radonc #ASCO

We are in very dark times. It’ll take an entire political/social movement, an overwhelming rebuke at the polls, and a new vision of governance to unstick this country from whatever this collapse is.

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

I’m British, but the US mid-term elections will be the most consequential in my lifetime. If #Trump consolidates power then a US authoritarian autocracy is nailed on. A disaster for the US and the entire world.

Couldn’t agree more. Huge opportunity here for China to humiliate & damage Trump and US. However, they will want to keep Trump in office (to continue destruction of US) so can’t go on for too long. Empty shelves could end his Presidency.

Kennedy claimed that drugs like budesonide and clarithromycin "have been shown very effective" for measles, but doctors say they don't fight the infection itself.
