He keeps hinting in his speeches that there are going to be some big surprises next week and a couple people in his administration are going to be remembered in history books. It seems like no one really knows what to do with that information so it’s just passing casually
The Justice Department is drawing up contingency plans to potentially intervene in next week’s midterm elections, three national security officials tell me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/feds-prep-...

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Looking forward to the possibility of Israel voting out the guy who committed genocide in Gaza in favour of the guy who explicitly declared war crimes to be an inherent part of Israeli tactics in Lebanon And then being gaslit by the media that this counts as progress

Monstrous beyond all reckoning. The US is using remote sensing *designed for humanitarian purposes* for the opposite purpose, potentially drowning civilians en masse. Trump hates Somalis. His troops appear to be exploiting the weather to help slaughter them. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

This went on for the rest of the full hour, at which point the BBC apologised for having to go to the weather and urged viewers to follow continuing live coverage on iPlayer. Forty-one minutes of unfiltered, unchallenged propaganda by a far right party with 8 MPs, now third in the polls. Discuss.
BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

Right now, the UK government has a crucial chance to ban glyphosate from public spaces and garden centres, but they’ll only step up if enough of us make our voices heard. It only takes 2 minutes. Thanks! act.gp/3WpxIot

In 2016, Britain's car manufacturing rivalled Germany's. Now, it's nowhere near.

Elon Musk's radicalisation machine is the main reason why civil war talk is a thing in Britain. Without it, Lowe would be a nonentity: there's no organic demand for Restore's fascism; It's been manufactured, and now "what needs to happen will be incredibly painful" is in the high single digits.
Rupert Lowe of Restore Britain says the electoral success of his political party would "inevitably" lead to civil unrest and rioting. His argument is increasingly that civil conflict has become unavoidable + absolutely necessary (if still partly regrettable + somewhat to be blamed on opponents)

I just signed a petition calling on the EU to defend the International Criminal Court against Trump’s attacks. The EU has a powerful tool that could protect international law - mass public pressure will force them to act. Join me and add your name now: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-10...

We're going to see a lot more of this. Reform splashing huge amounts of crypto-billionaire cash outside of the regulated election period (where spending caps apply)
More ads from Reform this morning - on fuel duty cuts and shutting down the asylum system. Their average daily spend on Meta this week is around £7,500, way more than anyone else.
