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

Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, American democracy has been unwound at frightening speed. Analysis by the V-Dem Institute shows the rate of democratic backsliding in US is faster than we saw in Hungary, India, Russia or Serbia And if we don’t take urgent action it could happen here too

In the UK we are facing an unprecedented coalition of hostile states, enormously wealthy far-right individuals prepared to spend many hundreds of £millions to swing elections & a media & social media ecosystem which they almost entirely control - we are simply not ready youtu.be/8ap3DObeNEs?...

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

The Cal State LA bachelor's degree initiative just launched at San Quentin Rehabilitation Center. With 81.5% of students who earned rehabilitative credits remaining conviction-free after release, we're setting folks up for success after incarceration and creating safer, stronger communities.

Lula "We cannot have monstrously huge corporations earning millions & billions, paying no taxes to this country & trying to steer this country's election results." So many countries have this problem and need to slay this beast.

It’s also important to note just how badly her various shows are doing in terms of audience. Her YouTube shows are somehow *dragging down* and damaging the reach of of a channel run by a man who got cancelled by talkTV and was last seen drunkenly rolling on the floor of Isabel Oakeshott’s wedding.

Look it's 2026 and I know "the president is a rapist" is already baked in to everyone's opinion but the president of the United States is a fucking rapist and I would really appreciate it if the media would treat this like the major earth-shattering scandal that it should be.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

I had some thoughts on Katie Zacharia's brief tenure as press secretary, and the role of Fox News in pushing her off the stage.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"Fox News hosts are professional propagandists. I think they looked at Zacharia as someone who was not capable of covering for Donald Trump when he gets in trouble, someone who wouldn’t be able to lash out at the media for daring to cover him, and they helped her off stage because of that."
