I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already.
He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us.

Trump's followers aren't abandoning him, so why do people keep saying they are? I wrote about the mythical crack-up of the MAGA base, and why media outlets and liberal pundits keep falling for this narrative, even though the polls show the opposite. Gift link:

A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

Ukip have submitted a new logo and slogan to the Electoral Commission, swapping the £ pound sterling symbol for a cross, that looks very much like it is modelled on the Iron Cross used by Prussia & Germany 1871-1918 and Hitler's Nazi regime from 1933-45

Having served in multiple countries run by ruthless dictators, I am accustomed to their tactics for keeping their populations under control. One of them is to employ a legion of fake opposition figures who promote the false narrative that "all parties are the same, so why bother voting?"

Great piece by my Cato colleague. “Since July, immigration agents have shot at least six people behind the wheel of a vehicle. The same playbook is used each time: the agent says they “feared for their life” as a vehicle was “weaponized” against them. Juries should decide, but we tie their hands.
Opinion | Renee Good wasn’t the first person shot in her car by ICE. The justification followed a familiar script.

This cannot be stressed enough, from the 404 piece yesterday: ICE is working from a legal rationale which states that if a device is collecting adtech or location data, which is then sold to ICE, b/c the owner didn't change the privacy settings, the owner relinquished their Fourth Amendment rights.
