At what point do we call this a constitutional crisis?! Russell Vought is Trump’s path to authoritarianism. “He was so clear to us that he believes that it’s a President’s power to ignore the laws as written, that it’s a President’s power to ignore the Constitution.” - @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

Maybe the UK and rest of Europe should do what Brazil did.

Emmanuel Macron denounces Elon Musk's "unacceptable interference" in European democracies by supporting "a new reactionary international". Macron is the 4th European leader in the last 24 hours to speak against Musk, following Olaf Scholz, Keir Starmer & Jonas Gahr Støre. Action must follow words.

Don't let Elon Musk make Nigel Farage look moderate by comparison. Both are trading off the exact same politics of hate. The only difference between them is that while Farage judged it would be bad for his career to associate with a criminal thug like Tommy Robinson, Musk is too far gone to care

Jenrick is spouting dangerous rhetoric. Needs to be muzzled and kept on a choke lead.

“Obviously there will be no return to freedom of movement, the customs union or the single market” says Prime Minister Keir Starmer at #PMQs In other news the OBR report the Gov’t keeps quoting from says Brexit is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15%. Hiding from it won’t make it go away

Elon Musk talking about buying MSNBC is straight out of the Authoritarian Playbook. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban got his rich friends to buy media outlets to turn them into propaganda mouthpieces. Imagine scores of Fox/Twitters, all regurgitating Trump propaganda. ipi.media/the-rise-of-...

I made the comparison with Cummings and I stick by it... albeit a very high octane and far barmier set of people and circumstances
