He says so. I don’t doubt that he will try. — Of course, the left was destroyed a long time ago. Between Reagan, Clinton, and Thatcher, any left that remains in the either the UK or US is in name only. The role of the left was never the implementation of human rights — that used to be shared between both…

So many executive orders to sign — Like all candidates running for office, Trump is making promises to win votes. The difference with Trump is that he is promising to do it all during his first day in office. Remember, a president’s first day in office is not a full day. More like a half-day workwise. First…

Imagine if a left wing politician said the same about the conservatism. — With Florida Governor Ron DeSantis finally entering the Presidential race after months of buildup and speculation, the Republican primary is officially in full swing.

During that time, a lot was made about the governor’s electability in 2024. Polls came out backing that assertion: Biden was to beat…

And once again, the environment will pay the price. — Well, unfortunately it should come as a shock to no one that the debt ceiling deal is a bad one, and for a number of reasons. Of course, reporters have done their share of deep dives into the material and shared various reactions to it, but one stood out to…

In short: it’s bankruptcy. — Imagine that you are dealing with a person who does not pay his debt. If so, you go to court, sue him, and take his property. Let’s make it a little more complex: you are dealing with an LLC that does not pay the debt. And again, you go to…
