Running for president in the wake of a fascist regime that will leave behind a host of policy and constitutional dilemmas demands seriousness of purpose, vision, and optimism. It will not be enough to clear away the wreckage of the preceding

When we think of strongman dictatorships we often imagine tanks in the streets, but those usually come in the later stages of repression (think Tienanmen Square) and often are never even needed (think today’s Russia).

Thirty years ago, Susan Collins promised Maine voters she’d serve only two terms. Now she’s a multimillionaire asking them for a sixth. Her current net worth is estimated to be roughly $6.8 million. Not bad for a Senate salary of $174,000 per year.

People are claiming that Elon Musk messed with Starlink in Ukraine because Trump asked him. I think a more likely reason is that Ukraine damaging Russian data centers embarrassed Elon by showing how many of his Twitter followers are nonexistent and how much traffic on Twitter is driven by bots.

Abandoning Ukraine will be a stain on the United States for the rest of time
Screenshot of a statement by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reporting a Russian ballistic missile attack on Kyiv targeting critical energy infrastructure, including the CHPP-4 power plant. Zelenskyy says a residential building was also damaged and caught fire, warns of further Russian missile attacks, and criticizes the lack of advance warnings from Ukraine’s partners. An accompanying nighttime photo shows flames engulfing part of a multistory residential building, with debris scattered across the ground.

It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Is this for real? You'd have to be pretty dim not to know this happened. What difference it made I don't know but we've just been treated to a concrete example of the level of interference when sections of X (Twitter) went pretty quiet after Ukraine interrupted a couple of Russian data centres.

Lest we forget... Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage both supported Donald Trump's war of choice against Iran. A war that is not only illegal but which has resulted in needless suffering and instability, as well as undermining the UK's economic recovery. #bbclaurak www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/202...
