The daft person's idea of an intelligent person. He has shown himself in so many ways and yet the cult continues unabated.

"I don’t want Jared Kushner to be investigated because he’s the president’s son-in-law. I want him investigated because he’s potentially laundered and embezzled $2 billion dollars in funds from the governments of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I don’t want Stephen Miller investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who’s at the center of the Trump brain trust. I want him investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who has violated the due-process rights of millions of people and, potentially, directly violated court orders. I don’t want Pete Hegseth investigated because he’s a toxic psychopath who is unqualified to lead America’s military forces. I want him investigated because he’s a fucking murderer who needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, either in this country or The Hague." thenation.com/article/politi…

He’s just completely insane and deeply evil
NEW: In leaked recordings, Peter Thiel argued that Nashville should be a moral alternative to Pope Leo XIV and the Catholic Church, which he called “a dubious ally” against a hypothetical future Antichrist Democratic president. “America is the last and final form of the Roman Empire,” Thiel told a closed-door crowd in Nashville’s Masonic Temple. “There is no successor.” He has attacked Pope Leo XIV at least four times this year, once calling him “a useful idiot for the CCP.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-…

To insist that Enlightenment Europeans gained a monopoly of scientific knowledge by discarding “indigenous” ideas is to misunderstand how knowledge is harvested from many sources. Science Museum is misreading science — not all ways of knowing are equal thetimes.com/article/f13e60d…

Every MP who accepted Israel's human shield argument for destroying civilian infrastructure in Gaza/WB/Lebanon, and every media host or journalist who didn't question that or call it out not only legitimised Israel's genocide but gave ISR/US legitimacy to do the same in Iran.

The Labour right will always scratch one another's backs before they do anything else. They don't give a flying fuck what's in your best interests and never will teapawt.org/LucyGJWhite/status/211…
Palantir’s Tom Watson, ex-Labour MP, wrote to Yvette Cooper last month saying the controversial US company could help boost the UK’s tech sovereignty, letters show. Weeks later, sources say the UK is extending its NHS contract for two more years bit.ly/4zrbMYF

The amazing work of Sameer with limited resources needs support but also political solutions to bring more materials like shelters into Gaza. Pressure must be applied to Egypt, the israelis and a jewish community still mobilising all its resources to support their colony.
Tornados are hitting Gaza!! This storm started last night, November 6th, and has already broke thousands of tents and flooded hundreds of camps. Help now: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… People are angry on the streets, after losing their belongings AGAIN. This is the FOURTH winter in genocide in Gaza, and the Egyptian borders are closed meaning that there are no tents or tarps or blankets coming in. This is all our fault. We should be furious, and hold ourselves accountable for this. We need to mobilize and allow caravans to enter the Gaza Strip immediately! The Sameer Project is doing what we can by purchasing what is already available in the Gaza Strip. We just bought 300 blankets for $7,850 including 11% commission. But we need to get way more. Urgent donations needed to our General Fund: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

Literary criticism is alive and well on the right
Oh, and Karl Ove Knausgård is a coward. How do you write thousands of pages about coming of age in contemporary Scandinavia yet fail to mention the single most salient socio-historic fact of collective life in these places: their total transformation by mass immigration?

So Trump is going to fight like hell. Will the Democrats do the same? I think we already suspect the answer, though in this instance it would be great to be proved wrong. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

Grateful to @DalrympleWill for choosing “Anti-Zionism” as one of his books of the year: “brave, passionate, thoughtful, moral, and humane.” The only thing better than praise like that is seeing it in the anti-Palestinian @spectator. Will @michaelgove be inspired to check it out?
