Tice on #r4today says that those reporting Farage’s schoolboy racism are talking β€œtwaddle” and that β€œno one has done more for the Jewish community” than him and Nigel. Because they wanted the pro Palestine protests banned.
Not so much pro-Jewish as anti-Muslim then.
Just peddlers of hate.

Rachel Maddow: "Russia is a podunk country. The idea that we work for him is so humiliating and is such an abject failure on the part of Trump in terms of his weakness. I don't know what Putin has on him, but he works for Putin and it's an embarrassment to this country"

Republicans in the era of Late Trumpism The end is in sight β€” and it's not pretty for the GOP.

"It’s difficult to conceive of a cohesive and robust Republican Party emerging out of the ruins being wrought by Trump. And considering the untold damage the party has done to the nation over the past 25 years, perhaps that's for the better."

Q: If it's found that survivors were actually killed while clinging onto that boat, should Sec. Hegseth, Admiral Bradley, or others be punished?

TRUMP: I think you're gonna find that this is war. That these people were killing our people by the millions, actually.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

A tweet by journalist Peter Baker stating that Trump launched a xenophobic tirade calling Somalis β€œgarbage,” describing the remarks as unusually blatant even for him. Below is a photo of Trump speaking angrily at a meeting, with American flags behind him.

No people are β€œgarbage.” That is the language of fascists. We need to rein this racist lunatic in.

You have the right to record ICE.

You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it.

Your camera is proof, but keep a safe distance. KEEP RECORDING.

Trump appears to doze off in another meeting
It was the second time in a month Trump has appeared to struggle to stay awake as his advisers have spoken to cameras about the administration's initiatives.

While Trump dozes off, millions of Americans are wide awake to the fact that they won’t be able to afford health insurance or Christmas presents because of his terrible policies.

Why left vs right politics is over in the UK
YouTube video by Richard J Murphy Why left vs right politics is over in the UK

British politics is broken. The old left vs right divide no longer explains what is happening. Instead, we face a new choice: care or neglect.

@markhertling.bsky.social: β€œWhen you're talking about striking against someone who's wounded and clinging to debris…Deliberately targeting such a person isn't a tactical decision, it's a war crime by the Geneva Convention, the laws of land warfare, and the U.N. Charter.”
