Meanwhile, over on the other place, I don't think I've ever seen so much anti #Trump fervour on my feed. #America, he really is destroying your reputation at a stroke. A loathsome cabal.

Unfortunately, about half the voting population wants to it would seem. I'm not one of them for clarity.

Been saying for ages. Reform will go the way of UKIP since they can't control the loonies. Farage crosses the floor to the Cons who immediately annoint him as leader. The party members would salivate, the Tories sweep to power with Nige as PM. Am certain of it.

The boy is wired differently for sure. Replace rules with chaos and call it freedom. Looks rapidly more like anarchy to me. America has gone mad.

The EU and the UK especially have seen this for the last 10 years. Ultra Conservatives pandering to their support base, promising sunlit uplands but delivering on none of it, whilst making things worse for everyone en-route. Hopeless.

Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks:

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

Travellers in the Third Reich. The rise of fascism through the eyes of everyday people.

1935 and 2025 have many similarities.

Riddle me this. Why oh why are the corporates sticking with X when there is so much casual violence, depravity, misogyny and racism? If they leave the platform, the platform dies. 🀷

Quite. Russia reaps what Russia sows.
