I laid out the details of the extraordinary corruption case against Benjamin Netanyahu a few months ago in @thenewworldmag.bsky.social. It seems like itโ€™s helped him bond with Trump.

Yvette Cooper: Stop attacking the right to protest. Tell the Home Secretary to repeal extreme anti-protest laws and protect our right to protest.

Email Yvette Cooper and tell her that the right to protest is part of any functioning democracy and if she wants to even pretend weโ€™re that, she needs to stop preventing pretty much all protest the government doesnโ€™t like.

How the Epstein scandal broke MAGA Trumpโ€™s supporters were promised revelations about a horrifying conspiracy. Instead, theyโ€™re getting denials and abuse from the president they helped elect

11:30pm, New Yearโ€™s Eve, 2014, I get a text message.

โ€œLook this up. Move fast,โ€ it said. โ€œDo not contact the court clerk.โ€

And so it was that I spent the stroke of midnight in 2015 sitting under a kitchen counter reading the first court document to accuse Prince Andrew of sexually abusing a minor.

New petition: Recognise Palestine as a State and seek immediate ceasefire in Gaza We believe it is imperative the UK Government acknowledges the rights of all Palestinian people and seeks to implement an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Their suffering must end; they deserve basic human rights. Palestinians should live without fear and be allowed to make decisions about their future.

New petition: "Recognise Palestine as a State and seek immediate ceasefire in Gaza"

Over the last 400 years, the U.S. has repeatedly confined groups of people based on race, fear, or policy. These systems werenโ€™t "anomalies"โ€”they reflect patterns of dehumanization we must confront.

'The Watcher' from Doctor Who, Logopolis

If you're wondering about the welfare of facts on Facebook, this screenshot from Doctor Who was posted as a purportedly genuine photograph of a supernatural event. 100s of thread repliers now seem to wholly accept the claim, even though discovering the image's true source would take a few seconds.

Please read, this is important. Sorry itโ€™s long.

Trumpโ€™s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasnโ€™t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Muskโ€™s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasnโ€™t. Itโ€™s just changed hands.
