The thing about Americans is that they keep all their weapons to defend themselves tyranny yet elected Trump twice and did fuck all about it. Kids still get massacred regularly.
Back in the US after a long break in the UK, I am suffering from total sticker shock after visiting a couple of DC supermarkets. I have never seen prices like it. Inflation numbers here are going to soar & are not yet telling the full story. The difference between late May & today is staggering.
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.

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.

Freedom of movemeny. The timing would be perfect for me.. I am prepared to give up the financial gains,the secure borders. VAT off energy bills. Cheap chicken from USA. Even those superb trade deals America gave us. I’d even given up closer to democracy. It’s a sacrifice I am prepared to take.
"Right now, we’re living in Trump’s world, in Vance’s world, in Hegseth’s world. This is what a world without empathy looks like. It’s a world of constant othering, of constant rage, of a constant belief that life is a zero-sum game. But nothing flourishes in that world." — @snipy.bsky.social

Trump summons a conclave of MAGA Republican Catholic bishops to the Oval Office to demonstrate their fealty to him and to bless his election campaign. The Vatican is not amused. Expect early retirement for many of them.
Trump defends Ramaswamy campaign ad condemned by Republicans, saying ‘Vivek should keep it up’
I agree he should keep it up as he won’t get in and Trump has hitched himself to it. They have no decency totally corrupt souls. It will finish them

As inflation hits a 4-month high and the Iran war keeps driving up gas prices, Trump unveils his big plan with the midterms two weeks away: a "World Class Championship Golf Course" in D.C. Work starts Nov. 15, closing a public course for about 15 months, he says.
