I used to blog about luxury, art and fashion but 2016 happened and I haven’t been the same since.

C’est un message que les américains connaissent bien. Cela les a amenés aux événements du 6 janvier. Les parallèles sont inquiétants.

Happy 4th of July. This may be the last year we celebrate two and half centuries of American democracy un-ironically so make the most of it.

The Post and The Times go out of their way to give space to more people to call for Biden's head. Do they ever give space to anyone to call for Trump to drop out? No. Do they give balanced opportunity to those who back Biden? No. The agenda is clear.

SCOTUS has ruled that presidents are essentially monarchs who can commit crimes, bribery is legal, federal regulatory agencies have no authority to keep us safe, and homeless people can be punished for being homeless. Is it any wonder why public approval of this court is so low?

“To be clear, this is not just a defeat for democracy and the rule of law, but a terrifying reminder of just how dangerous another four years of a Donald Trump presidency would be.” (Marc Elias)

Il va falloir apprendre à vivre à l'allemande ! Construire une coalition, même si elle semble hétéroclite et que ses membres ont peu d'affinités. S'entendre sur un minimum commun et ensuite gouverner ensemble, travailler à réduire les tensions plutôt que les exploiter pour essayer d'en tirer profit.

I don’t recall the NYT calling for Trump to step down after being convicted of 34 counts of fraud and being called by a judge at his civil trial a rapist in the common person sense

A party co-founded by two French Nazis Waffen-SS no less (Pierre Bousquet & Léon Gaultier). That this party may very well be poised to govern France 80 years after the end of the French Occupation is revolting.

Nous avons vu ce phénomène aux États Unis suivant l’élection de Trump. Les racistes se sentent épaulés, réconfortés dans leurs haines et donc les langues se délient.

I see this constantly across journalism. This idea that the "partisan divide" is just some unavoidable part of human nature and completely causation free, and not something that's actively cultivated, nurtured, and encouraged by corporate power and political bad actors using consolidated media

“(…) ‘Meloni doesn’t want it She’s the only one, she’s isolated on the issue. But since it’s the host country, the others have decided not to make it a casus belli,’the source said, using the Latin term for an act that provokes a war. ‘So it won’t come back in the text.’”

Unemployment has been at or below (mostly below) 4% since the end of 2021. 4 years ago, Trump called it "joyous" &"stupendous" that unemployment was only 13.3%. In the "booming" Reagan years, unemployment averaged 7.5%. Pres. Biden is presiding over historically strong growth.

Agreed. I think they love him precisely for being unapologetically reprehensible in his views and his behavior. He acts out their darkest fantasies. It’s the “let Trump be Trump” campaign strategy.

Remember: Trump's jury was made up of ordinary citizens — selected with input from Trump's own lawyers. The jurors were not politicians or members of the "Deep State." They were Americans who did their civic duty.

Trump is very popular with the Boris Johnson loving Tories and Nigel Farage supporters on the right. They find common ground with MAGA on hatred of immigrants & the politics of perceived social grievances. These are the same sentiments that drove Brexit and were amplified by Murdoch tabloids.

To the folks responding to the verdict by cursing the judicial system and those who did their duty by it… That’s your right. However misguided. Because under our present government, you’re allowed to criticize those in power.
