Friends, it’s a cult. MAGA is a cult. Please—for God’s sake, after a decade—accept this.
Accept it, internalize it, and then decide what you think America should do.
And as you think about that, think about all the other cults you’re aware of, what they did, and how they ended.
Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
What Is Trump Trying To Achieve In Iran? Politics Politics Unpacked > 25m W Donald Trump has demanded the "unconditional surrender" of Iran and says he wants to choose its next leader. But does he have any idea of how to achieve that? Guto Harri unpacks the news and politics of the day with Alys Denby and Michael Binyon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
And as you say, this Tim Shipman piece made it very clear that his instinct was to be with America, and Ed Miliband and other members of the cabinet strongly opposed, I think was a great quote, it was a petulant, legalistic, and deeply political. And let's not forget, this comes right off the back of this Gordon and Denton by-election, which Labour spectacularly lost. A safe seat for hundreds of years, lost to the Greens by forming a coalition of Muslim voters and rainbow open borders lefties that handed this seat to the Greens. So Keir Starmer does have political difficulties at home that are influencing his decision making, whatever you think. So I don't think this is a sign of strength, I think it's weakness. And I think Ed Miliband is the secret linchpin behind all of this. There's something I like to call the Ed Miliband theory of everything.
I have a funny feeling we need a long lunch to discuss that. But there is, you know, I was just thinking Ed Miliband opposed, you know, the last full on Gulf War. His brother didn't, he was part of the Tony Blair government that backed the Americans. When it came to the leadership that should have been David Miliband's, Ed Miliband, his own younger brother stood against him and beat him. Lot of people have said, had that gone the other way, David Miliband had won, Labour would have won the election, and Ed Miliband won, Labour lost the election, and the history of Britain was different, and whether we'd be out of the EU and all kinds of other things, all go down to Ed Miliband being fratricidal.
At the Times podcast, the lads are discussing Britain’s disastrously fucked domestic and international state. Former foreign correspondent Michael Binyon, who appears to be authentically deranged, identifies the true culprit.
Let’s see if the DOJ “finds” the missing 37 more pages of documents or if they are continue to be “offline”:

It's hilarious that "working class" now applies exclusively to the racist failsons of regional car dealership owners but every unemployed trans person is an "elite".
Barack Obama right now. My God. What an amazing speaker, what a genuine statesman, what an inspiration, what a shame he's not the president.
Oh, just the business vehicle of Nigel Farage masquerading as a political party breaching its obligations at Companies House.
I’m watching President Barack Obama @ Jesse Jacksons Memorial and man! Do I miss having a competent leader who was not a fucking moron….
Preach! That’s what leadership looks like…
Obama on Jesse Jackson: "The message he sent to a 22 year old child of a single mother with a funny name, an outsider, was that maybe there wasn't any place, any room, where we didn't belong"
Good for them...

This is incredibly interesting — archaeologists have been able to reconstruct the diets of different prehistoric Europeans from 5,000-8,000 years ago by analyzing the charred remains of food in clay pots. Extremely cool!
"This new guidance by the Scottish government highlights how much the gender critical use hyperbole, fear and a distortion of facts to terrify other parents into preventing their child from receiving the healthcare they need."

Wow did something happen in the US in January 2025?
What are the chances that the intelligence about the US military that Russia is providing to Iran was initially provided to Russia by its obedient lapdog, Donald J. Trump?

I've been the UK explaining-the-madness correspondent for Late Night Live for eight years. This week, for the first time, I went into the studio. It was oddly moving. It's been such a privilege being a small part of this great show.
