This morning’s chat with Claude hasn’t exactly filled me with confidence.

They’re insane.
WHAT THE HELL. Tim Scott stood on a stage in South Carolina and claimed, with zero evidence, that Abdul El-Sayed's mother was "part of the funding apparatus for Osama bin Laden." Out of nowhere. About a Senate candidate in Michigan. This is insane.

Perfect metaphor for the destruction of the Republican Party by the MAGA maniacs.
EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth wanted Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s globe for his office. His staff broke it. We have photos.

Christopher Hitchens in 1983 on Israel’s right to exist amidst tensions with neighbours and Hormuz closures. How little progress since then.

Episcopal Church's bishop of Europe, Mark Eddington, on JD Vance's explanation of the protests in Paris. Priceless.

This way this militant wing of deranged ‘green’ (nothing green about them btw) nut jobs is treating @CarolineLucas is absolutely repellent. They have lost all the civility she brought to any debate. Awful, awful spectacle.
Former Green leader Caroline Lucas says she's 'very upset' about calls for her removal over criticism of the party’s ‘Zionism is racism’ motion.

This is increasingly like the bunker scene in Downfall.

Hillary Clinton: “The Republican Party is no longer a political party, it is a cult devoted to Trump and Trump’s power. The Republican Party needs a total transformation. If we’re gonna have a healthy government that actually gets things done and delivers for people, the Republican Party has to purge itself of everybody that lost both their conscience and their backbone over the last ten years and that’s most of them”

Amazing news. So glad this vital representative for humanity in a world governed mostly by the inhumane will continue unencumbered. He is the only Pope I can recall who connects deeply with the non religious.
Pope Leo XIV’s doctors have confirmed that the tumor removed on October 13 was a lung adenocarcinoma and that the disease was localized. Dr. Luigi Carbone and Professor Stefano Margaritora said on Wednesday evening that a subsequent oncological assessment has confirmed that “no further treatment is necessary.”

The MAGA leaders would, in the 1940s, have been happily cosying up to Hitler and demanding that France, the Netherlands & Belgium stop being so pesky. There is no doubt about it. They’re utterly sickening. What will their descendants think, if they survive the brainwashing?

Trump’s envoy to Putin. One of the most sickening things I’ve ever seen. Future generations will scarcely believe America fell this low, if it ever recovers.

Walking up the South Bank of the Thames from Tower Bridge to HMS Belfast on Monday pm, along with thousands of happy visitors, I was thrilled to see a large cormorant fishing, and then a *seal* on his way upstream. How London has changed for the better!

Absolutely horrific to hear of the terrible injuries suffered by Australian MP @helenhainesindi and wishing her all the best for her recovery. Political violence is a growing threat in many democracies and must never be condoned or tolerated. #auspol
