Trump just called half the country โ€œthe enemy withinโ€ which is the same euphemism a certain 1930โ€™s German dictator used to call his adversaries. But donโ€™t you dare call trump a fascist.

The highest electricity prices in the world, the highest train fares in Europe and rivers full of sewage. It's almost as if privatisation was fundamentally flawed.

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours.

Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

Maurice Glasman has made me agree wholeheartedly with George Monbiot. I'm still adjusting to this state of affairs.

The law is clear: you canโ€™t โ€œmass fireโ€ federal workers during a shutdown.

Trumpโ€™s hatchet man Russ Vought is open about his plan to break the law and fire feds during the shutdown.

He needs to explain under oath why he feels heโ€™s above the law.

Today, I'm signing legislationย to safeguard our elections and the voice of every voter.

It's now illegal to use contests or payments to get people to register to vote.

And in the 2026 election, voters have the chance to repeal our state's ban on the public financing of elections.

Hegseth is on an extended riff about how "war" is a better word than "defense" and it's like listening to a 7-year-old

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to tell hundreds of generals about the 'warrior ethos' in rare gathering: Sources The speech that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will give to hundreds of generals and admirals next week will be about the "warrior ethos" of the military, sources say.

Kind of unbelievable that the top commanders of the most powerful military in human history will be summoned to one place to hear a drunkard give some sophomoric musings on manhood and fighting even as he understands very little of either.

NEWSFLASH:

ALL THE MOST POWERFUL MEN ON THE PLANET ARE IN THE EPSTEIN FILES.

I donโ€™t even need the files to tell me that. All I have to do is look at how people are acting.
