Sincere people in the US are saying 'if you didn't vote for Harris, you're responsible for #Trump'. I'm not in the US, of course. But I reject this. On both sides of the Atlantic, politics is so corrupted that it matters very little who you vote for. Your only choices are between different kinds of supine, corrupt, incompetence. An essay I wrote a year ago explains why.
When the system is broken, acting within the system can't help.

As the UK's General Election campaign stumbles uncertainly into its third week, one thing becomes abundantly clear: none of the leading politicians in any of Britain's mainstream political parties are any good at their jobs.Simon Brooke (The Fool on the Hill)

#Trump admin cuts undermine efforts to track abducted Ukrainian children
U.S. foreign assistance cuts and sanctions against the International Criminal Court are obstructing efforts to track and recover thousands of #UkrainianChildren taken by #Russian forces during the ongoing war, a senior European official warned on July 17, according to Politico.
Thordis Gylfadottir, an envoy of the Council of Europe, said the end of U.S. financial support to monitoring programs has complicated the search for more than 19,500 Ukrainian children who have been unlawfully #deported or #forcibly transferred to #Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
According to Ukraine's official Bring Kids Back UA initiative, 19,546 children are confirmed abducted. Only 1,399 children have been brought back to Ukraine as of July 2025.

Trump admin cuts undermine efforts to track abducted Ukrainian children, Council of Europe envoy says
"European countries will have to fund it," Thordis Gylfadottir, an envoy of the Council of Europe, told Politico. "We cannot stop tracking them and then just re-track them (abducted children) in the months ahead."Anna Fratsyvir (The Kyiv Independent)
"The move came just days after Colbert publicly criticized CBSβs corporate owner, Paramount, for agreeing to pay President Donald Trump $16 million to settle an outrageous $20 billion lawsuit against the company.
The agreement was the latest in a series of bootlicking moves by Paramount as its chairwoman, Shari Redstone, desperately tries to sell the company to Skydance Media, a deal that requires federal approval."

For Trumpsters who think only fraudsters will loose healthcare.
"Because of a statutory requirement to automatically impose budget cuts when legislation increases the deficit, the Big Beautiful Bill would require automatic cuts across the board."
"Medicare is one of the programs that will face the axe, starting in the next fiscal year that begins in October."

I like how on https://tromnews.com/illustrations/ you can see this world represented with illustrations rather than words. And they say a lot.

As Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos attempt to reshape our reality, my advice is to avoid their toxic platforms and wait it outStewart Lee (The Guardian)
To meet people who think Putin and what he does in Ukraine is ok, or to say that Trump is a good choice for the USA, is quite a shocking experience. Almost like seeing Bigfoot. It is one thing to hear about it, another thing to see it.
It is astonishing to me how some people can be so idiotic and brainwashed. Unbelievable.
A low internal sense of self and a need to be wanted are what ties Trump & Trumpers together.
Outlandish costumes scream "Here I am, look at me" and Trump's penchant for grandiosity (ie inflating crowd size) lead me to believe -
These people were not shown love as children. The effects of this are seen in their actions as adults.

The Circus Is in Town: Crowds Gather in Miami for Trump Arraignment
A cavalcade of Trumplandia characters began to roll in around 8 a.m., not unlike when the carnies rumble into town to set up the rickety rides and rigged game booths.Naomi Feinstein (Miami New Times)
"What happens next?
Trump will be arraigned, where he will enter a plea, and various dates for case proceedings will be set. His attorneys are all but guaranteed to fight the charges tooth-and-nail in the pre-trial stages, submitting motions in efforts to exclude evidence and testimony they believe will harm his defense, as is normal in criminal cases.
This, in turn, will result in re-setting of deadlines and scheduling events, making a definitive trial date elusive until shortly before proceedings kick off. Itβs possible that years elapse between Trumpβs indictment and any possible trial."
