Alan Titchmarsh's show which aired till 2014 regularly featured Nick Ferrari. It was basically the DM on TV, pandering to the aged DM reading audience. I've never forgiven AT for it, however many gardening shows he's done since.

I convinced a Clacton voter to stop voting for Farage, in less than 15 minutes. 😍 Farage is probably going to win this by-election, but don't let anyone tell you there's no hope.

Trump's Justice Department has been indicting people over sandwiches, seashells, and a peeling pool liner. Each case is more absurd than the last, and each one is collapsing in court, but how they all tie together is the bigger story.

Frederick Douglass, 1857: Those who profess to favor freedom yet deprecate agitation want crops without plowing the ground; they want rain without thunder + lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.

Trump sued the BBC for $10 billion alleging its documentary caused him harm to his reputation and brand. So the BBC said, “We want to test that. Show us your finances.” And a magistrate judge agreed. My write-up on how Trump got himself into this pickle, in the comments.

Lindsay Graham was, I think, one of the most contemptible figures in US politics, a titan of respectable bipartisan foreign policy for years who displayed no principles, no insight, and no beliefs beyond a gleeful and vicarious love of violence. An indictment of every institution he served in. RIP.

Hot take, I think that the “bumbling, incompetent dad” trope is outdated and no longer funny.   Like if you’re an adult man who can’t cook a basic meal or doesn't know how to do laundry, then that’s not funny. That’s pathetic.

I’ve been reading a lot about the end of the Roman republic recently, and the slide of that empire into imperial monarchy. The stamping of the leader’s face on coins, colossal statues and a reworking of the forum. But even Augustus didn’t build himself a ballroom-fortress.
