    Here's one for all those of you getting excited about sub judice* the other day.

    Watters: “Do you believe Comey should be in jail?”

    Gabbard: “I do… I’m very concerned for the president’s life…And James Comey, in my view, should be held accountable and put behind bars for this.”

    *Autocorrect prefers "sub juice".

    Comey said he was knowingly making a political statement, but won’t say what it was. Do you see Comey as a lone wolf, or part of interconnected network of many with the means and access to the necessary knowledge to ensure the assassination ? ...
    Eh ?

    FWIW, I see Comey as someone who, more than any other single person, was responsible for Trump's defeat of Clinton.

    Saying you wish the current president be gone is protected political speech, which means no more than you wish him gone.
    Any attempt to criminalise that is pure authoritarianism.
    If Trump is assassinated by what looks like an opportunist nobody, you’re going to tell me it’s an opportunist nobody, not the security establishment, aren’t you?

    I’m referring solely to how close Trumps administration, advisors, confidants too, are to Putin (and by that the KGB or GRU whatever they now called, as its secret service run country) and what the Trump team are doing to the military and security leadership, systems and structures, in the US.

    But am I wrong to say, if this was any other country in the world, even UK, the security establishment would act - so why are we not anticipating disquiet in US? If it was happening here in UK we would have disquiet.
    No they wouldn't.
    Don't be ridiculous.

    It's a term used numerous times by well known GOP and MAGA individuals about Biden when he was president.

    Some of whom are the same ones now calling for Comey's arrest.

    Well it looks as if Starmers relaunch as Reform-lite is working as some of us predicted:

    My shamelessly partisan take on these numbers:

    Ed Davey is not only substantially more popular on net ratings than any of the others (unless you count Carla Denyer who has a 75% “don’t know” count), but

    - he is up since the election, almost unknown for a Lib Dem
    - He is up *24%* with 2024 Tory voters since the last election. The biggest upward movement of any politician with any voter group. His net rating with that group is better than all the other leaders’ national ratings.

    Big question for the rest of 2025 is: can Europe provide Ukraine with enough support to defeat the Russian offensive?

    More than three years into the war and Russia is still out-producing Europe in terms of war material, which is a major failing, and Putin appears emboldened by Trump to keep pushing for total victory.

    Trump is such a pushover. He really wants to be seen as a tough guy, but he's such a pathetic wimp. He's leading the West to defeat against Russia while Russia is fighting with Iranian drones, North Korean artillery and Chinese electric scooters. LAME!
