goodlawproject.org/orbans-pay-c... Any chance we can justify labelling Matt Goodwin's or Nathan Gill's actions as Treason (aka High Treason)? Or do we have to formally declare Hungary/Russia as enemy states and Orban as a Russian asset/agent? Personally, I think they're modern day Lord Haw-Haws.

Orbán’s pay cheques: Reform candidate fuelled by profits from Russian oil
The Reform candidate at this month’s byelection claims he wants to put Britain first, but is he still on the payroll of Viktor Orbán’s far-right propaganda unit?

@colbertlateshow.bsky.social Love your show. You deserve better than to be cancelled for speaking comedic truth to power. I look forward to the bittersweet year ahead and am certain you'll be snapped up to continue. Perhaps in the UK? Wishful thinking, I know.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social First The Daily Show, now Friday Night Comedy with DeadRingers! Do I spy an appearance on @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social or Question Time on the horizon? Admittedly, that would eat into Nigel Farage's recurring revenue stream so perhaps we should reconsider.

www.independent.co.uk/voices/trump... I saw the similarities between Trump and Brexit since the first merry-go-round of Trump's Presidency. The UK and USA were trying to out do each other for the most stupid thing possible. I believed USA had clinched it with Jan 6. Boy, was I ever wrong!

Is Trump playing some sort of 'Cards Against Humanity' on a global scale? "What would you do to end a purported genocide in the Middle East?" "What do you call the freely elected leader of a democratic country that has been under siege for 3 years?" "What should you do with state secrets?"

Was Trump really told to shut his mouth, in the Oval Office, while Elon was standing responding to reporters, by Elon's child? If Trump doesn't fire Musk shortly it will, to my mind, confirm that Trump is Elon's puppet.

www.imdb.com/title/tt5669... Supernatural S12 E05 was so prescient! In this episode some Nazi necromancers resurrect Adolf using a Horcrux timepiece. Hitler's excitement about Twitter is all too clear. The screenwriters just didn't conceive of Twitter being actually bought by a Nazi sympathiser.

I wager that the people who take issue with Michelle Obama skipping Trump's inauguration are probably the same ones who have no roblem with a certified felon, conman, sexual predator, insurrectionist and vote rigger being elected President. Just a guess.

The failings of the US system are clear to all. All governments need to ensure there are enough political and legal methods to deter future insurrections and to quickly, and we must stress quickly, bring ambitious and overreaching demagogues to justice. South Korea, you can skip this class.

Musk has engineered/leveraged/chanced upon a way to maximise the power of Twitter, the credulity of citizens and his vast wealth. Unless governments get their acts together we're dealing with a problem more typically found in Marvel and DC these days. I'm torn between admiration and blind panic.

USA citizens who voted for Trump need to take a good long look at themselves when reality bites over the next few years. Dems didn't cover themselves in glory but then again they didn't incite an insurrection and try to derail democracy and call for the veep to be hanged.

Trump's MAGA hitched their wagon to QAnon, and largely integrated it before finally taking over the Republican Party. The people that brought you #pizzagate are now appointing Matt Gaetz to the role of Attorney General. Anyone curious as to what's in Matt Gaetz' basement?

Having complained directly to Elon several weeks ago that I was sick and tired of receiving pro Trump propaganda so could he turn it down, here I am. I live in the UK, can't vote in the US elections, and haven't been kicked in the head by a horse, so it wasn't an unreasonable request.
