This is an earthquake. UK Green Party wins a seat Labour held for decades. (Reform was second, Labour a humiliating third.) People don't want bland centrist candidates, who face "a challenge from populism on the left as well as populism on the right."

Gorton and Denton by-election result: GRN: 40.7% (+27.5) REF: 28.7% (+14.7) LAB: 25.4% (-25.3) CON: 1.9% (-6.0) LDEM: 1.8% (-2.1) Green GAIN from Labour.

A doofus son and way overpaying for properties. It will not end well for the Ellisons.

worth reading the whole story for all the awful details - including literal bounties for other people to rat out trans people using the “wrong” bathroom

The disappearance of Larry Summers from public life cannot happen fast enough.

This is negligent homicide.

The State of the Union: the president is a corrupt demented sex criminal who tried to overthrow the constitution.

I don't know why the federal government has declared war on my state, but this is clearly because their attempt to conduct an invasion was thwarted. So they're now retaliating economically.

Jesus fucking Christ "On Tuesday evening, Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind, seriously ill Rohingya refugee from Burma who does not speak English, was found dead in Buffalo—five days after Border Patrol dropped him off on a street corner without notifying his family, who had moved away from the area."

One of the most important Team Human monologues I've recorded. This is my indictment of the permission structure built by the scientific and tech elite. A worldview that dismisses human soul, consent, and morality as mere delusions. Stream now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGvo...

During a screed against undocumented immigrants, Rep. Ilhan Omar shouted at Trump, yelling, “You have killed Americans,” and “You should be ashamed.”

Warnock: "We heard tonight the rumblings of a desperate man who's trying to present case he can for the midterms. It was half lies, half grievances. He knows he is quickly losing power."

Let's take back the Senate and House in November then impeach and convict Trump. "Trump’s overall job approval has fallen to net -22, and he’s now underwater or tied on every single issue we track."

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.” They pulled a Target.

Masterful Troll, TCM.

All the men’s hockey team had to was not laugh with and grovel to Trump when he made an asshole statement about the women’s hockey team. Or maybe they’re just misogynist jerks too.

Foster Fiona in the front and house cat Isabel looking through the window.

"What can Americans do in the face of moral rot in a major political party? The only short-term answers are shaming, shunning, and mockery—and punishment at the polls"

Borderland Beat is an ultra-reliable source on the cartels.

And another grotesquely corrupt and presumably degenerate Brit gets arrested.

Congress must act now to curb ICE abuses. In the long term, it should rethink how the Department of Homeland operates as a whole. bit.ly/4kNpi2q

Last week: Andrew Today: Mandelson Police lead Lord Mandelson out of London home

Beyond degenerate.

“Due to ongoing security operations and related road blockages and criminal activity, U.S. citizens in the named locations should shelter in place until further notice“ mx.usembassy.gov/sec...?

Particularly sickening pre-teen child porn. Says addiction to porn was his problem. No. To recover from addiction, one must own everything they did while addicted. Then change their life. Not use it as an excuse.

Donald Trump will HATE this ad when he sees it during the Olympic hockey final. Let’s win gold. And then win back our country. LFG USA 🏅🔥🇺🇲

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH. AS GOVERNOR OF THE FREE WORLD, I, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, AM OFFICIALLY BANNING "KID ROCK" FROM CALIFORNIA.

i say let them do it. if i were a senate democrat i would relish the opportunity to let the country know that republicans don't think you should vote if you are a married woman www.nytimes.com/2026/02/21/u...

It’s not a mystery. My name keeps coming up because I was very public about doing rapid response and willing to speak on the record about what we were seeing. I was literally the only one, for a stretch. That means to a rough approximation every outlet in the Western hemisphere was calling me.

Pro-ICE sheriffs in competitive counties all over, including Maryland, New York, Montana, and Wisconsin, are up for reelection in 2026. These races will test voters’ appetite for complying with Trump’s deportation agenda.

At a time when Black history is being rewritten, we bring you three conversations with Black journalists who work to preserve a more inclusive American story. This week on Reveal:

Newer ways to collect tariffs are way more difficult. Plus, money collected by his illegal tariffs will need to be refunded. All because the Orange Toddler wanted tax cuts for the wealthy. www.npr.org/2026/02/...

Pritzker demands $1,700 for every family in Illinois after the Supreme Court ruled Trump's tariff scheme illegal. www.instagram.com/p/DU_rpGbEU0_/

Newsom: He’s a weak president — and that weakness is now on display globally. The only card he had left was these tariffs. His entire economic policy has been mass deportations — and that’s beginning to unravel. His broader economic policies have obviously been aided and embedded in these tariffs

“He was like a 10-year-old, name calling, foot stomping, berating Supreme Court justices. He's like a baby,” says Sen. Chuck Schumer on Trump’s response to the Supreme Court striking down his sweeping tariffs.

Trump says he has a backup plan to continue to impose his braindead, destructive tariffs. We shall see. However, the current tariffs were ruled illegal by the Supremes. Costco already has a lawsuit to recover the tariff money they paid. There will be many more such lawsuits.

Our toddler president is probably having epic meltdowns now. That tariff money will need to be paid back.

Even WSJ is saying wealth inequality is a problem, in addition of course to more than a few of our billionaires being degenerate pedophiles. The “very richest Americans have tax evasion options that mere multimillionaires don’t have”

More MAGA trash

Reminds me of Gramsci's quote: “The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.”

We need arrests here too. Claims he “sent confidential trade reports to disgraced business mogul Jeffrey Epstein during his time as the U.K.'s envoy for international trade.” www.npr.org/2026/02/...

“Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children and threatening to kill children.” - Rep. Ted Lieu www.msn.com/en-in/ne...

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

The Ayatollah of Iran is threatening to release videos of Trump with children if Trump actually launches a full scale bombing campaign against Iran.

Let's redouble our efforts as Trump will get even more deranged since he knows he's losing "For the first time in a long time, the pro-democracy coalition in this country has the wind at its back. And that’s exactly when things get dangerous."

Hillary and Kamala were not anti-system. Trump pretended he was. AOC is. Elliot Morris says maybe Dems should run someone not beholden to the system.

After CBS released a statement without Stephen Colbert's knowledge denying that it had pulled an interview with Texas Democratic James Talarico from his show, Colbert responded by crumpling up the statement and treating it like dog crap.
