Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him in | Alexander Hurst
He has bankrolled elections, stoked riots and ignored laws. We mustn’t make the mistake of playing nice with the world’s richest bully, says Guardian Europe columnist Alexander Hurst

Self-determination is a core principle of feminism - TERFs seem to have forgotten that
So why have so-called ‘trans-exclusionary radical feminists’ moved to remove this concept from feminism altogether?

The ancient Persians used to make decisions when sober, then go away, get drunk, and if it still made sense they agreed it. If fighting broke out, they sobered up and tried again.
I can't see the Starmer cabinet doing that, can you?

Hunter got a break. Will Biden use his presidential powers to pardon others?
Biden's powers are especially notable due to his hand in drug-related incarcerations: When Biden was a senator he drafted the Anti–Drug Abuse Act, which disproportionately affected the Black community.

The issue isn't who Biden’s helped—it's who he hasn’t.

This week, SCOTUS will hear oral arguments in US v. Skrmetti, a landmark case that will shape the landscape for trans rights for years to come, while also testing how far the court is willing to extend its 2022 Dobbs decision.
This Supreme Court case could change everything for trans rights.
US v. Skrmetti could slow the wave of anti-trans laws—or tell policymakers it's "open season."

So a reminder:
It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.
It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.
It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.
For the record.
