Rise of the Nazis Reform UK to create ICE-style agency to deport 288,000 people a year, will terminate the status of those with indefinite leave to remain. It would leave the ECHR. How many would be shot, as by ICE? How many families will be destroyed? How many concentration camps?

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

Every complaint I had against Chomsky concerned the same problem: the way he excused or dismissed atrocities committed by his team: ie regimes and forces opposed to Western hegemonic power. As his friend, Epstein was given the same pass. In other words, it's not an anomaly. It's the same story.

exactly. this is not difficult. as.ft.com/r/58ed1b23-d...

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I find it kinda astonishing all these people who have spent so many years in public life, many of them media/ PR pros, didn’t think to get ahead of these stories. Did they really think it’d never come out? Bowles & Weiss never thought to mention it to ‘Free Press’ subscribers?

France’s far-right National Rally is poised to win the country's presidency next year. But the party is still sharply divided over whether to treat the Kremlin as the enemy.

During a town hall with Representative Ilhan Omar in Minneapolis on Tuesday evening, a man rushed the lectern and sprayed her with a strong-smelling liquid. He was removed by security and later booked into jail. Read more: nyti.ms/4sZZlQZ

Yes. It's clear that MAGA's framing of empathy as "toxic" has led to this moment. It's why the Twin Cities' resistance has been breaking them so badly. Their stereotypes about "Minnesota nice" made them miscalculate. Community is strength, not weakness. Empathy is greater than hate and cruelty.

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions. It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

Last night, I was assaulted by a man at Sundance Festival who told me that Trump was going to deport me before he punched me in the face. He was heard screaming racist remarks as he drunkenly ran off. The individual was arrested and I am okay. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will skip the signing of US President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace” in Davos after Switzerland confirmed it would enforce the ICC arrest warrant over war crimes in Gaza.

📕 In the French Penal Code, we have a term to describe such a board: we call it "association de malfaiteurs", and I find it beautiful.

This is simply a bribe for Trump and nothing more.

EXCLUSIVE: Newsom was informed at the 11th hour that his Davos talk was canceled. His administration claims the State Department played a hand.

Since there are a lot of people insisting that protests don't matter and the Trumpists can simply ignore public opinion: I just wrote about why this idea that authoritarian regimes are impervious to public pressure is very wrong and basically just perpetuates the regime's assertion of inevitability:

A trade deal between the US and European Union is on hold after the European Parliament decided to freeze a ratification vote in response to President Trump’s escalating threats to seize Greenland
