As usual, end of November.

Nothing says "I want independent judges" like threatening to sack any judge who disagrees with you, while holding up a judge's wig like a puppet

Kaffee.

Guten Morgen.

I kinda remember Trump pardoning a bunch of people for this, many of whom beat up cops and put them in the hospital. I think they were yelling something about the Vice President as they stormed the building.

Goody-bag merch from Tory Conference branded "When Labour negotiates Britian loses" and signed "Kemi Badenoch".

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.

House of South Carolina Judge Criticized by Trump Administration Set Ablaze Authorities are investigating a fire at the home of a South Carolina judge who had reportedly received death threats in what could be the latest incident of political violence across the country.

Over the weekend, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller repeatedly attacked judges, calling them part of an "organized terrorist attack" on the US government....

On Saturday, the home of a judge who ruled against Trump, went up in flames

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

@bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12

Kaffee und Block.

Guten Morgen. Shopping und To-Do Liste.

Thames Water creditors ask for up to 15 years’ leniency from river pollution rules Lenders say a ‘full return to legal, regulatory and environmental compliance’ under new rescue plan would not be completed until at least 2035-2040

"For the next 15 years, give us a subsidy from public money, and remove the disincentive for us to stop dumping raw sewage, so our creditors are rescued from the consequences of their own greed" is not, I have to say, the world's most appealing pitch. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Guys I think we’re gonna need more than three ghosts this Christmas Eve

Dampfender Kaffee.

Guten Morgen. In der Tat so kalt heute morgen.

Actor & campaigner Hugh Grant tells ITV News why he feels Labour has ‘betrayed’ hacking victims.

He says seeing Keir Starmer forge close relationships with major newspaper barons is hard to stomach for the families who were promised things would change.

A very eerie glow in the sky today. Photo taken in Glastonbury about an hour before sunrise. Low level mist clinging to the hill. The sky was totally misty too until it cleared for a few moments.

Feierabend. Langes Wochenende. Hoch willkommen, obwohl die Wetteraussichten eher 'naja' sind.

Espresso.

Guten Morgen.

Guten Morgen.

Nigel Farage doesn’t think the Prime Minister should have free speech in this country. But he’ll tell foreigners that yours is somehow under threat from the Prime Minister. He’s a whiny little liar. Always has been. Always will be.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Highland cow eating apples.

The tasty season. Bi blasadach and happy #CoosDay.

Selbst ist der Mann. Gute Heimfahrt.

Trump summoned the top American military officers stationed around the world to VA to tell them that the enemy they should be primarily concerned with now is American citizens.

Besser als unterwegs. Und jetzt nehmen die Geliebte und Du ein Großraumtaxi nach Hause?

To Donald Trump:

Stop using military troops and ICE to invade and disrupt American cities.

Stop calling your political opponents “enemies” of the US.

Stop attacking the 1st Amendment.

Our troops and our nation deserve better than you acting as a petty tyrant.

Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.
