Are we really going to drown in six inches of water?
The central far right claim - that our problems are caused not by those with power and wealth but by utterly powerless people (asylum seekers etc) - is obviously and pathetically wrong. Yet millions, once more, are floundering in that puddle.

Symptomatic of how media deliberately feed anger: "asylum seekers in hotels up 8%" as the only headline being pushed.

Number much lower than Tory high, spending on hotels significantly down, applications processed faster, backlog down, overall immigration dramatically lower. But that won't do. ~AA

Senator Tina Smith said: This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

That was in response to Musk saying β€œConsistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”

Musk responded @SenTinaSmith β€œWhat did you get done last week?”

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota.

But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

It’s not politics as usual - and pretending that it is just makes us look weak and scared, with little agency and no self-conviction.

Just watched Arnie's original Total Recall movie on Prime...
Terrible movie, but in a good way obviously...
Seriously high numbers of "yarrghs" and "arrghs" throughout too...
In the high hundreds i'm guessing...
