It’s one of my favourite books, and I love watching adaptations of it, but do we really need another film of A Christmas Carol? It’s like actors thinking that they have a unique take on Hamlet.

If you have seen Alastair Sim and The Muppets version, that’s all you really need.

I push back on a lot of the standard criticism of ā€œthe Demsā€ because it’s often just vague handwaving, but this is fucking ridiculous

The argument for rearranging the calendar has been based on making sure that states more representative of the emerging dem base is reflected in the demographics of those states and so it makes sense to go somewhere less white than Iowa and New Hampshire, which SC most certainly is. But SC will play absolutely no part in the general election. The months spent building organizations necessary to do well in the first primary will be utterly disposable becaus every will leave the state en masse the moment that primary is over.

Again, FUCK everyone who refused to acknowledge that all through the campaign they were explicitly talking about a lot more than people here illegally

Kaja Kallas on Trump’s ā€˜forced labour’ tariffs: ā€œSorry, but you can’t say that for EU. If you compare our labour laws to the ones of United States, I mean, people have paid vacations, we have very good labour conditions for our employees. So it’s not really grounded.ā€

(And a lot of proper benefits, labour protection laws, which is laughable in US.)

It is all utterly laughable when you consider the scale of convict labour use in the US. A classic example of ā€˜every accusation is a confession’

The US right has also spent about a decade working hard to scale back child protection laws when it comes to work

Need to get back to the good ole days, when 12 year olds worked 16 hours a day, women couldn’t vote, people of color were slaves, and alpha males (white boys) ruled.

Fucking entire Republican Party needs to be nuked!

Little doubt that in his tiny scrambled brain he is so popular he would run and win in 2028,fuck the constitution,fuck everyone …It is all about me! me me!
Never mind his age and apparent health, that only applies to others!

I’m wondering if he is so surrounded by sycophants that he actually believes it. Reminds me of Nicolae Ceaușescu, the Romanian dictator, who was hated by the masses but who’s inner circle protected him from it. His execution was remarkable. I think he still thought that they would be pardoned and exonerated right up until they opened up the machine guns on him.

There’s an interesting subplot there. Ceausescu was summarily executed, primarily because former comrades of his and lower communist party cadres wanted to (and eventually did) take over the new regime. They couldn’t do that with Ceasescu and his loyalists alive and kicking.

I doubt that the likes of Pence for instance would even consider it, and while Vance is a snivelling, conniving little weasel with higher aspirations, he doesn’t have the stomach for it.

Just trolling the libtards, right?

One reason he states he is running in 2028 is a present day threat to keep rogue party members in line now… just like the line put out there that Don Jnr will be running in the future… again as a warning to his political enemies there is ā€˜no escape’ from him, and that there will be retribution without the 100% worshipping at his alter he demands at all times…

There is going to be a form of civil war in America in the next couple of years if this Spray Tanned Piece Of Shit (STPOS) can survive his bodily organs from rotting away… It’s one of the reasons his private, and ever expanding army (ICE), is being armed to the teeth… We know most of the ICE contingent are lunatics anyway, imagine how much more hostile they will become when the realisation of Democrats winning an election, ultimately means they will be defunded and disbanded…
Dark and even darker days lay ahead with Trump at the helm
