@maitlis.bsky.social, @jonsopel1.bsky.social and @lewisgoodall.com unpack the seismic reaction to the BBC’s edit error - including Trump putting a target on their backs.

The Man Who Tracks Silicon Valley’s ‘Nerd Reich’ | The Tyee Wonder what US tech titans wish for, Canada? Study their roots, says writer Gil Duran. A Tyee Q&A.

PM Carney makes it sound like we can insulate ourselves from Silicon Valley tycoons who genuflect to Trump and serve his authoritarian aims.

But how realistic is that as #BigTech hungers for our country?

Musk Wins $1 Trillion Pay Package, Creating Split Screen on Wealth in America

It surprises me that Musk’s arrogant, autocratic, incompetent, mistake-prone, drug-addled, and deadly reign at DOGE is not mentioned. Nor does it discuss his Nazi salute, support for far-right political causes, and turning Twitter into a purveyor of lies and hate.

Le Trumpisme à la française. On crie à l’injustice, on se positionne au dessus des lois et de la justice sachant que les médias de l’ultra droite (et dans une certaine mesure les médias traditionnels) feront le boulot d’obscurcir les faits.

I keep thinking how much worse the January 6 insurrection could have been but for her ability to keep her cool and manage the shitshow when everyone around her was in panic mode.

Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

A wonderful article on Royal privilege & the colossal resources of the British monarchy. Resources that in my own opinion should be national not private assets. It is time for the Royal Collection of art in particular to be in public ownership & used for the nation's benefit.

Seriously? Talk of another Trump term won’t go away

If Trump says he can run for a third term, does that mean Obama can run again too? Just asking.

No comparison. When Biden so much as tripped, it was a week-long story. When Trump has no idea where he is and drifts off mid-event— media silence.

This isn’t the first time. What’s up?!

Appearing on CNN’s State of the Union, Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, warned that President Donald Trump is using the congressional shutdown to transition the United States to a form of totalitarianism

He’s dead!! OMG. As I said, I know nothing about baseball! 😂😂😂

I know nothing about baseball but even I know that Pete Rose is legit ancient and therefore no longer playing.

In exchange for what exactly?

Claims of cancel culture always struck me as resistance to plain old accountability for words & deeds they want impunity for.
