Trump wants to turn the entire U.S. economy - including businesses, universities, investors - into his personal Jenga tower, with him able to pull pieces out or put them back in on a whim. If Congress and the courts let him get away with it, it'll be to their permanent dishonor.

The New York Times just reported that Trump pardoned a rich tax cheat after his mother attended a $1 million Trump fundraiser. The pardon application explicitly mentioned his mother’s donations to Trump. They’re not even trying to hide the corruption anymore.

Sadly the BBC and billionaire controlled UK media promote Farage daily, and treat him like the saviour of Britain. Turns out you can fool most of the people most of the time.

The Lib Dems are the biggest third party in a century, and only a fraction lower in terms of seats than the Tories. Why are there two Conservative MPs on this show but no Lib Dem?

BREAKING: Gavin Newsom Tells Stephen Miller: "You just pulled National Guard I placed at the border who were stopping fentanyl smuggling. Now they’re twiddling their thumbs in LA." Why the hell is anyone ok with this?

Climate disinformation fuels division, delays action, and endangers lives. In London and Paris, we’re standing firm. Cities need governments, tech giants and the media to join us in tackling disinformation and protecting our planet. #LCAW2025 🌍 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Happy Brexit referendum anniversary day. It weakened the economy. Reduced investment. Tanked the pound. Damaged the City. Increased red tape. Increased immigration. Decreased the rights of the young. Staffed billions wasted. But hey - Johnson has PM on his CV and his partner in
