What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.
This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

It is pretty amazing to see people go from “the left is the enemy of democracy and must be purged” to “who can really know why good kids do bad things?”

In the wake of the Kirk killing, seeing a lot of posts today asking what the hell happened to America, how did we get here?
We’ve always had some political violence, but nothing in my lifetime compares to the Trump era. His hate & vitriol is unmatched in presidential history. He has poisoned us!

The contract/rule of law is nullified.
What they cannot nullify is what we actually celebrate every July 4; the Declaration of Independence.

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable

As the US spirals out of control, let's be clear who the architects of this chaos are. A fossil fuel industry hell-bent on preserving its destructive business.
Yet in the UK, their lobbyists roam the palace of Westminster with privileged access to ministers. At what point will we say enough?

"Musk promised to refocus his attention on Tesla after the carmaker’s sales collapsed in Europe and other key markets during his time working in the Trump administration".
I wonder how many normal people get a pay rise to help them "focus" after screwing up at work?

It’s a year since The Forever War: America’s Unending Conflict with Itself was published. Huge thanks to all those who have read it, listened to it or watched me blather on about it. The book is the 250 year backstory of Donald Trump. 📷 Hugh Stewart
