Astonishing. The only mention of “Loser Leonard Leo” in Kansas vote so far is Talking Points Memo. Do legacy media reporters not know or are they in on the con & think Leo involvement is irrelevant? WE are reporters. WE decide what readers need to know. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/kansas-...

Historical truth is complicated, nuanced, full of contradictions & counter-examples, & it cannot be fully known. And the public perception of this truth needs to be continuously recalibrated & corrected. But to do so, we need to be that truth more nebulous, uncertain, not perpetuate binaries. (8/n)

I would’ve thought e.g. “if you allow the very wealthy to buy everything, then they will sit on huge swelling piles of gold like cunty dragons and charge everybody else huge rents to live, drink water and breathe” would be glaringly obvious to anyone who had ever, say, played a game of Monopoly

New UEFA statement. "UEFA knows there is significant and growing opposition to FIFA’s scheme. FIFA cannot continue to use our sport to enrich themselves and their friends. We can grow the game correctly. It’s time to prioritise associations, clubs, leagues, players and fans"

Further UEFA statement on FIFA plans Today we have learned of FIFA’s deadline to associations to support their proposals or have the one-off payout offer withdrawn. This says everything you need to know about this plan. But having held discussions with many stakeholders across the game, UEFA knows there is significant and growing opposition to FIFA’s scheme. FIFA cannot continue to use our sport to enrich themselves and their friends. We can grow the game correctly. It’s time to prioritise associations, clubs, leagues, players and fans.

Stephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body. People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.

Overland couple shot dead in Guatemala after local ICE stop led to deportations

The couple’s 14-month-old daughter was found crying beside her mother’s body in a sugarcane field last week, according to Guatemalan authorities and media.

People need to step back and understand what they are seeing. After a few months of war, the USA is running out of munitions and options fighting a country with no air force, no navy and a damaged infrastructure. US decline is real and self-inflicted.

I mean, somebody spent the last fifteen years relentlessly air-horning the public that a malign confederacy of Bolsheviks, students and people from inferior races were conspiring to destroy Britain, civilisation and freedom itself. It wasn’t e.g. Teen Vogue, was it?

Because there’s a multimillion pound industry that’s been absolutely committed to driving Boomers out of their minds with racist, reactionary propaganda, and writers for this paper should know this better than anyone, because it’s one of the worst and most poisonous.

The Times and Sunday Times • @thetimes X.com How did the Boomers and the Zoomers drift so far apart?

My main wish for politics is that people would spend less time fighting people who aren't the fascists literally destroying the country as we speak and more time fighting the fascists who are literally destroying the country as we speak.
