“The MAGA cancer has been growing within the Conservative Party for years. It’s the Conservatives who traffic in disinformation and take cues from the Trump political playbook. It’s the Conservatives who imported America’s culture war.”

I don't think I've ever read the words "industrial-scale abuse" before. Horrifying. Countries and app stores need to ban X.

the reason the elite are so desperate to vilify hard-working people coming to this country to build a better life for their families, unleashing wave after wave of gutter racism in the process, is to distract from the fact that their incestuous degeneracy causes most of our actual problems

Jack Smith testifies there was "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" that Trump committed crimes

Il s’appelle Liam Ramos, il a 5 ans. Il a été enlevé par des agents fédéraux hier après-midi en revenant de l’école. Pendant 24 heures, sa famille n’a obtenu aucune information quant à l’endroit où leur petit garçon se trouvait.

incandescently enraged. They kidnapped a 5 yo and shipped him to Texas with no way for his family to know where he was.

If you have read even a single history of fascism, you are already aware that one thing that its rise has in common in every case is an opposition party that refuses to intervene for fear of looking weak or putting the left into power

guys minneapolis is a living hell today. they've tear-gassed so many people, tear-gassed a park, beaten people up in front of me. greg bovino is rolling around to gas stations and posing in front of them, trying to cause a riot.

Billionaires who won't pay their taxes -- and in some cases have intentionally immiserated millions -- have less than zero credibility when they promise their pet technologies will liberate the rest of us from work. Why? ...

The world knows Dems need to "chuck" Chuck Schumer, but won't. They know Merrick Garland blew it, and we let him. They know we want to be entertained by opportunists and grifters, and can be as gullible and harmful as MAGA. They think we had our chance, but we blew it.

Trump: "Canada gets a lot of freebies from us. They should be grateful but they're not. He watched your prime minister yesterday. He wasn't so grateful. But they should be grateful to us. Canada. Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, next time you make your statements"

The people who are mad at Mark Carney for doing a deal with China on EVs are the *same* ones who think Canada should build a bunch of new pipelines to sell oil and gas to...China. Set aside the hypocrisy for a moment and ask: can they not see where the puck is going here?

ICE at Mercer Middle School in Seattle. Cleveland High School in lockdown. ICE were at Roosevelt High School earlier today.

Apple and Google's quisling era unearths the lies they've told to justify monopoly power over software for the most consequential computing platforms of our lives. If the stores can't move against Musk/Grok, they can't be trusted with any of the powers they demand: infrequently.org/2026/01/nake...

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

One year ago today, Elon Musk made this gesture while giving remarks at Trump's inauguration.

Compare & contrast. This is Trump’s demand for Greenland. And this is Hitler’s for the Sudetenland. There is no difference. The language. The unstoppable need to dominate. The megalomania. It’s the same. And Keir Starmer’s response is appeasement. We are in that moment. 1/

Embarrassing for a Canadian company to collaborate like this.

Everyone, take a deep breath and then escalate, escalate, escalate. Now is not the time to be Chamberlain. Trump only responds to strength. The red line is 10 km behind us! #cdnpoli #NATO #trump #EU

German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews. In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship. Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.

It is not up to the armed forces to put a stop to Trump’s ghastly ideas of war against NATO. The United States is not run by the military, nor should it be. Americans, and their elected representatives, must take this burden away from the armed forces—now. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

We've spent ten years being proved right about all the things the loudest, biggest voices in the UK media insisted, often obnoxiously, we were wrong about. The real kicker is that there's no consolation whatsoever in being correct. Brexit, Putin, Johnson, Truss, Trump, Twitter, Netanyahu etc etc...

The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

This is the insanity that took over the White House. At home, in Alberta, separatists are dutifully collaborating. This insanity poses a real national security threat for Canada and, eventually, for the world. Separatists aren’t just angry convoy truckers, they’re dangerous. #cdnpoli #ableg

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

I spoke to the Secretary-General of NATO, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, Friedrich Merz and Giorgia Meloni. Together we stand firm in our commitment to uphold the sovereignty of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.

I can’t accept the premise that this is the world I am passing on to the next generation. I refuse to leave this mess for them to clean up. I will do what is necessary to ensure they have a safe and free future. The haters go no further. It has to stop here. charlieangus.substack.com/p/it-has-to-...

I'd wager this is the angriest statement ever issued by the Nobel Peace Prize people...

Ahem

If the basic project is expanding and straightening the American empire, everything this administration has done - destroy soft power, wreck alliances, abandon shared ideals, withdraw for the intl institutions America built, and general erratic behavior - will have the opposite effect.

It’s like Donald Trump has declared war on smart people and you don’t even have to be that smart to be qualified as smart people

I wonder how long it will take the media to catch on to the fact that ICE’s recruiting spree has effectively deputized every white supremacist hate group out there.

He gave a bunch of Nazi salutes and out came the super soakers (pic from Mpls subreddit)

*whispers* *hey, most of the world, you know we should boycott the Olympics and the World Cup, right*

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale RTd this thread, which says Trump shld act fast & “Fire people who can't be fired. Force them to litigate. Mass deport people who can't be deported. Force them to litigate. Cancel 100s of billions in funding that are not lawful to cancel & force them to litigate.” 1/
