Surprised at the people defending Starmer. Everyone knew what Epstein was, and how close Mandelson was to him. Whatever the perceived benefits it was a weak, morally deplorable choice to reward him with an ambassadorship and if we have a pretense of political dignity left in this country he must go.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
It's actually a hell of a political achievement to, in less than two years, go from a thumping majority to being the biggest dead duck looking PM of a past decade that includes Liz Truss not being able to outlast a lettuce.
Holy. Shit. This is Reid Wiseman's video he took with his iPhone while at the moon 🌙
Keep Walking The Walk,Mayor Mamdani.......
Dunno about you guys, but starting to get the feeling ending this war isn't actually in any of the involved parties interests right now...
Another weekend of playing Deal or No Deal with our unhinged president.
I appreciate he’s leading the Iran negotiations - and there may be some confirmation bias here - but the scale and tone of JD Vance’s media elevation right now all feels very intentional.
At the very least, it suggests some insiders may be preparing for 47 to become 48 sooner rather than later.

I can’t believe it 😭
My hottest take is that flat earthers don't actually exist in any statistically significant number, they're all just engagement grifting. And doing it pretty well, in a lot of cases.
Republicans aren't abandoning Trump because he's a racist and a fascist. They're distancing themselves from him because he hurts them politically. If there was a red wave coming they'd be cupping his balls and supporting his insane policies.

Look, I'm glad the US didn't bomb Iran to shit, but let's not pretend Trump and his cronies aren't good for another few rounds of bomb based market manipulation before November 3rd finally rolls around.
Does someone want to tell Gianni Infantino that now is just about the opportune time to be revoking Trump's FIFA Peace Prize.

I understand the Democrats primarily are taking a "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake" kind of mantra towards Trump right now, but could I possibly recommend *explicit promises of war crimes* be a red line for them. Just a thought.
Imagine saying something so indisputably terrible that even Nigel Farage declines to bullshit you out of it.
Honestly, watching Donald Trump scramble to find some modicum of credibility in the FO phase of his FAing would be the *absolute highest form of comedy*, if almost everyone on the planet wasn't being fucked by it and innocent people weren't dying for it.
one of my favorite things about the winter olympics is when a skier or snowboarder blows my mind with athletic feats of daring that would literally kill regular folks. and then they remove their mask and are ALSO the Most Beautiful Person Alive
What an incredibly fucked up world we live in when we all see the Trump machine maneuvering its pieces to intimidate midterm voters, but so long as there's a crumb of doubt for MAGA folk to cling to, or the media to both-sides their arguments with, there's not a damn thing we can do that'll stop it.
