Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

I wondered for a while why Trump was so excited by Brexit, even to the point of getting Farage to fluff him. It was simple, really: proof that, with the support of enough bent media, bad people selling bigotry & lies really could persuade people to vote to punch themselves in the face forever.

This explanation seems horrific but sound. 10%tariffs if your balance of trade is roughly equal. It’s a shakedown & a protection racket. He’ll lift them by domestic sector and even maybe individual companies, as well as perhaps the occasional nation, as a reward for pledges of blind allegiance.
A description of the bogus calculations behind Trump’s claim that his obscene tariffs are somehow ‘reciprocal’.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

The last *seven days*? What *we* have *always feared*? What an irredeemable fraud he is. Gets a whole chapter in ‘How They Broke Britain’. And here he is now, ‘seeing the light’. Danny Dyer voiceover: “Twat.”
Andrew Neil’s latest column of shitspangle. This time ‘explaining’ that Donald Trump’s depravity has only become clear in the last week.

As a European, watching the leaders of Europe fret about the actions of the Trump govt. is infuriating. Understand that the US and Russia align perfectly in their need to keep Europe weak and destabilised.

So tired of this idea that billionaires are our "betters" whose opinion is super important because they have a lot of money. It's bullshit. They're mostly greedy sociopaths who have no problem destroying people who get in their way. That doesn't make your opinion one to be valued, in my opinion.

Mexico denied a US military plane from landing with deported immigrants today, foiling Donold’s plans.

Has everyone forgot the story about Trump telling Netanyahu not to make a peace deal until he could claim it was down to him? Because it’s like broadcasters have collective amnesia.

I wonder if the Douglas Carswell who supports "remigration" is related to "Douglas Carswell" who is an immigrant "by choice" and who lives in Jackson, Mississipi.
