It's hard to fathom but we are now *here* on this path to fascism.

Fani Willis has no more fucks to give‼️🔥💥🔥Listen as she goes scorched earth on State Senator Greg Dolezal (R-GA) who is running for Lieutenant Governor. He’s questioning her about bringing the case against Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election. This is how it’s done!

The thing I really don't understand about Badenoch is how on Earth her brain copes with the constant cognitive dissonance between "I'm great" and, well… the vast and mounting piles of evidence that the opposite is in fact the case.

'What The Hell': Trump's Nothingburger National Address Leaves Watchers Baffled Trump's end-of-year address to the nation meandered across a few of his favorite topics, but viewers were left searching for any real point to the whole thing.

FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times F: Not a 600% cut L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

MPs laughed when Jake Richards dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a meeting on the Palestine Action hunger strikers. Laughed. This is who we’re governed by, people entrusted to represent a nation, yet so insulated by power they respond to human suffering with indifference and mockery.

Trump LOSES IT and CAUSES his OWN COLLAPSE

Westminster is completely out of touch. Labour’s reckless changes to APR and BPR could have devastating impacts on Welsh family businesses. Plaid Cymru is again calling on the UK Gov to carry out a Wales-specific impact assessment to mitigate damage to the Welsh economy. @benlake.bsky.social

It seems awfully telling that Republicans were unwilling to hold this hearing publicly. It’s not like the case hinged on classified information; they’re just afraid of the public hearing what Smith has to say.

Looks like they found a false pretense to invade — one they’ve used before.

That’s great to hear. Long past time to part ways with the rest of the UK. We’re more than capable of thriving on our own. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Scotland’s economy is growing while the UK’s is declining. Latest data shows onshore GDP grew by 0.2% between August and October, and business investment is at a 20-year high. There is more to do and we will keep working towards a stronger economy, with higher living standards.

Labour and Tories destroyed in Wales. Plaid Cymru in the lead, and able to put together a progressive coalition for government leaving Reform locked out of power
