Looking possible that the Democrats might sweep the board today--which means attempts to pervert the 2026 Congressional election will go into hyperdrive.

Get ready.

The people MUST choose their politicians, NOT politicians, choosing their people. #Democracy 101

I mean, you’ve got to laugh.

Many in politics and media are trapped on X/Twitter, a latter-day Plato's cave, mistaking projected shadows for reality.

No social media platform can be perfect - the 'social' bit ensures that - as people are also not perfect.

But some platforms are better than others.

Democrats have flipped 2 seats in the Mississippi senate, and in so doing they've broken the GOP's supermajority in the chamber.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Republicans threw tens of millions of dollars at winning those votes and lost each one by over 20 points. In a state Trump won.

It feels like this headline should ideally read slightly less like 'entrepreneur success story'.

On the left, the refurbished Lincoln bathroom. On the right, picture I took in Saddam Hussein's palace in Basra in 2005.

I mean, it's not even subtle!

Salt Typhoon was a recent direct attack on telcom infrastructure, probably from China, and probably exploiting "lawful access" wiretapping interfaces. It's pure insanity to relax security mandates right now.

Nice. If we don't pay, there is no upside for ransomwsre criminals. Pay for your infosec program first.

I see project distraction (from #Epstein) continues unabated. Good to see the FBI priorities are focused on hit button issues.

"For the government it’s quite mad to keep using X. It’s active participation in its own destruction and against its own interests. I cannot fathom the logic of doing it. It would be like a Reform government communicating entirely through the Guardian comments section." 👏 @samfr.bsky.social

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

This remains vacuous sabre rattling. Its a sign of Russias weakness on the battlefield that it has to constantly tap its nuclear power sign.

"Just following orders" as we know from history offers little in the line of Defence even if it originates from someone with immunity from prosecution.

Democrats should vow to tear down Trumps ballroom and restore the East Wing of the White House. In as much as tearing it down is a metaphor of the damage #Trump is doing to the institutions of govt reversing the damage equally metaphorical. Its also another distraction from the #EpsteinFiles.

deplorables

Almost nobody in the Cons Party or beyond it had noticed that the Shadow Home Secretary with two other frontbenchers and 5 backbenchers tabled a bill in May to deport 3 million people - stripping almost every pensioner, parent or nurse who did not take out citizenship of their right to live here

Good Morning from Global Britain.
