Their work is incredible. Not sure why Americans don't use their strategies targeted to people who don't watch the news and don't pay attention to demos that aren't focussed,
The โLions led by Donkeysโ strategy
A succession of failed Tory leaders and front benchers used ECHR, 'lefty lawyers' and civil servants as tropes to deflect focus on their money laundering.
Farage certainly wants to leave NATO. Though heโs had to make a screeching U-turn recently. Heโs a Trumper afterall.
And were they to somehow manage it they'd move on to leaving the European Council too. Then what? NATO? The UN? Earth?
Excellent piece. Since most people won't read it, maybe a bill board or truck with LED screens should go up where it will get his attention. Put up one and the media will pick it up.
This piece dissecting Mike Lawler's lies about the SALT deduction is so good and detailed that EVERY voter in #NY17 needs to read it. In fact it should be required reading across all SALT-impacted states like NY, NJ, CA, etc. Written by @fightlawler.bsky.social. rcbizjournal.com/2025/08/21/l...
They won't be able to blame Canadians for all of the drop in tourism.

Trump also has luxury properties in NY and Chicago. Are the guests given security exports when they leave the building. Have they been warned that a broken tail light might trigger ICE to call for a car chase like the ones in DC?
Trump's son has a new luxury club there. Does anyone know if they were warned about the crime ridden city when they joined. How would you feel if you joined a club that is in a dangerous city. Finding out months later may make them question the info they were given.

Whenever I hear the words โDeep South.โ I feel a chill run through the marrow of my bones. Perhaps for some of you itโs a reminder of your friendly home but for me, itโs where people were stolen, atrocities committed, and people sold like bales of hay. A genocide thatโs slowed down.

Trump has luxury properties in NY, DC and Chicago. Put up an electronic billboard with Trump snarling about crime in that city. UK groups are good at targeted hits. They choose a spot where it will get attention or use roving trucks. We need to get the message to people who have tuned out.
Make it about money. Create electronic displays like the debt clock. One line for federal troops, the next for state and the third for local costs. The final row tracks the costs against police budgets. We need to get info to people who don't follow the news. It's their $$ on the line.
"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"
My nephew did that when the school library refused to let his daughter take out of a book. He was with her. They went to a bookstore and stocked up. We need to give kids who can't afford to buy books the same opportunity.
Well said. Today I feel like I won the lottery. I hope your neighbours are extended family for you
Who would trump be, if he couldnโt blame someone else for his misgivings. For goodness sake, Donaldโฆ. we know about your lack of character and decent values, since the 80s. That you are โin chargeโ now, is nothing but frightening. ๐๐๐

I don't understand why there aren't billboards in cities and along highways with messages that get lost. Start with: Guns are the leading cause of death of America's children.
The question we should be asking is why do our schools need metal detectors and bullet proof glass? Could it be we care more about guns than the lives of our kids?
Civil law suits by everyone picked up by mistake, injured or accompanied by a minor. There are reports that the police/ICE are conducting car chases that end up in accidents. They will kill a child walking on the street. Then everyone will say it's awful.
Truly horrifying and gut wrenching stuff.
Additional local reporting on the inhumane treatment of ICE detainees at Broadview. ๐ "They don't have showers. They don't have beds. They don't have kitchen facilities. It's not meant to be a processing center. That is really all it is. It's not meant to hold people for longer than 12 hours."
Priest kneels in prayer to block ICE detention vansโusing body as shield until dragged away. 3 protesters were arrested at the morning prayer protestโtrying to stop transport of detainees. This is same facility that denied access to 4 members of Congress who went to inspect conditions in June.

Imagine a ticker tape as a chyron on mews reports saying that Trump spent $11 mil today on the military, $400 million on detention of migrants who committed no crimes and $ 15 million for secret service protection of his children who are billionaires. What's the DC police budget for a year?

Vance is going to walk in the day after Trump is gone with a VP and agenda that he and his mentor Peter Thiel have prepared. It will be easy for him to change the narrative leading to the mid terms. The Dems don't have an alternative agenda telling voters what they will do for them. Get ready.
A fact check by German public station DW showed claims Vance made about the AFD to make them seem less extreme were false, www.dw.com/en/fact-chec...
Before everyone cheers at the idea of Trump's removal, prepare for a more dangerous President Vance. He is a true believer in white Christian Nationalism. He met with the AFD, a German party so extreme rights wing politicians won't associate with them. www.france24.com/en/europe/20...

Americans still don't seem to get it. Canadians aren't boycotting US products because of tariffs or trade warsโit's because the president has threatened to annex Canada. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
What say you?
Itโs strange watching a democracy crumble in real time
J6ers given high level jobs in DOJ
The arrest came the night before President Donald Trump announced his takeover of D.C.โs police force and the deployment of 800 National Guard troops in response to what he has described as out-of-control crime in Washington. Read more here:

My question to media persons, do you not get we see the double standard your playing? We see it. You look horrible. #cdnpoli
We need the equivalent of a debt clock to run over every message and projected on to screens across America. It should cover military and national guard costs. The daily cost for ICE and detainees, and the number of vacation days taken by Trump and Vance and what it is costing Americans.
Tweaked my sign to reflect DCโs National Guard occupation. Free DC!
YES!!
ITโS ALL NATIVE LAND!
No loyalty to the people who protect you is usually a bad idea. It makes me wonder if Hegeseth and Vance are winnowing the military and guard down to white nationalist militias to act at their command? The J6ers will do anything for him as long as there are no consequences.
He is a weak king. He has never run a successful business. We need to remind him of his weaknesses. The pardons are where he is most vulnerable. Is anyone matching the faces of ICE and their friends with the J6ers of members of a militia? That may be why they are covering their faces.
less we forget the 1/6 insurrection..Not only were they freed but many of them have benefited from there actions... Ashley Babbit's family were paid 5 million dollars and given a mitltary burial? What we once knew to be a very strong government is now a dictatorship..Loyalty lies with the MAGA king.
Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.
Let's flip the script. If Americans can have an interest in Intel, then they can also take ownership of his businesses. Taxpayers have paid more into Mar a Lago than the property is worth. We need to keep them off balance by treating our taxes as an ownership share.
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
Let's not forget that his replacement and possibly VP will be sworn in immediately. For those saying Vance doesn't believe what he says, that's not how the rest of the world sees it. He has publicly supported the AFD party. Remember this one? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...
So the photos we get of the โgolf outingโ today is a pale and feeble looking one of him getting to a car at the WH and this one of him returning. Nothing from the course.
Calling the day done it is like the last two weeks fell on me. Yet no matter what is going on I will not fail to remind you that you're loved by someone on this blue/green marble.
It will save America a fortune. Congress should end protection against every member of Trump's family and charge them for flights on Air Force One. It has worked that way for every president previously. We need to fight back with responses that force Congress to choose or disrupt his business,
California stepping up.
The mayor can make sure they have to march in front of his property or send emergency alerts on cell phones if they just show up. People need to know what is happening. Activists what is happening in trucks with screens. Surprise them, use their own interests against them. We have power.
Why aren't we using Trump's businesses to shift the battle. Trump has a luxury hotel and residence in Chicago. On the website it sells the beauty and culture of Chicago. People should stand in front of the property handing out warnings about the danger in Chicago.

I wonder if they hide their face because they were among the J6ers pardoned or members of gangs or extremist groups.
Yes. Especially home care. Trump brought back a triple-murderer in the Venezuela trade for people held in El Salvador. No one said a word.
I also believe that if every immigrant in the US went on strike for one week, they would see how vital they are to our economy!!!
The US media are not covering the war, they are covering America's response. Vance told the Wall St Journal that Putin is coming along. He said that Putin knows that he can't install a puppet government in Kyiv. Canada and Europe are sounding an alarm that war is here. Vance & Trump say so what
We have more power acting outside the political framework. Alot of Americans don't like being manipulated by corporations. Doing it as individuals makes it easier to create a groundswell of support. We are fighting for our right to be heard at the ballot box. The vote belongs to each of us.
People used buying power to shop at Costco. They stayed away from Target and Walmart. During Trump 1 there was pressure on big GOP backers to stop. The threat - publicity. It is easier now. Send a picture of things hurting communities with a tag line brought to you by....
We have the power to force change without politicians. Walmart and Target folded because a small right wing group threatened to sue. They caved. Costco said not. A shareholder's resolution was introduced. The board of Costco recommended voting no. The resolution was defeated.
Until they realize that a lot of us would get through without a whisper.

The decision was 7-4. All of the Appellate judges in the jurisdiction heard this case. It may be enough to keep SCOTUS from weighing in.

Only criminals try to stack the deck to protect themselves from consequences.
Trump's DOJ has fired two more FBI agents that stood up to Republican corruption and criminality including former acting director Brian Driscoll who refused to terminate agents who worked Trump cases and Walter Giardina whose wife just past away from cancer. Despicable fascists.
Is that what she's smoking?
The GOP redistricting spree won't help them. Voters want to be respected. The GOP have abandoned the voters.
