If it looks like a traitor, smells like traitor, and acts like a traitor… then it’s in the trump administration… remember when the U.S. wasn’t led by Putin, that was fun wasn’t it

Hmmmm... Why am I having #DejaVu?

From 2022: "Vladimir #Putin has mentioned 'gender freedoms' more than once to justify #Russia’s war against #Ukraine and simultaneously crack down on its own citizens.

"Most directly, he alleged that Russian citizens who seek '#GenderFreedoms' (alongside foie gras and oysters) are part of the anti-Russian 'fifth column.'

"Gender and sexuality freedoms — or rights, as they are more typically called — are about #BodilyAutonomy, #diversity and #inclusivity. #Feminist and #LGBTQ+ activists assert that every human being deserves respect, recognition and equal rights regardless of their gender or sexuality.

"What’s the connection between Putin’s animosity toward Ukraine and toward #gender and #sexuality rights in Russia and around the world?

Gender and Putin’s regime

"Putin’s regime has increasingly relied on very conventional gender and sexual norms.

"When he first ascended to the presidency, image-makers used Putin’s #KGB background and penchant for physical fitness to frame him as a #macho #strongman who could reverse Russia’s waning power and 'remasculinize' the country after a decade of supposed geopolitical flaccidity in the wake of the #Soviet collapse.

"In other words, an inflexible and clearly #patriarchal notion of masculinity has been central to the Putin regime’s legitimacy.

"Russia’s foreign policy has relied on rigid gender norms as well. When Ukraine underwent its first pro-democracy revolution in 2004, Russian media questioned its leaders’ masculinity.

"Putin likewise used homophobic terms to dismiss #Georgia’s #RoseRevolution in 2003, responding to a reporter’s question by saying: 'A rose revolution — next they’ll come up with a light blue one.' In Russian, 'light blue' or goluboi is slang for “gay male.”

Gender and appealing to constituencies

"Putin has often been represented as the unquestioned leader of the pack ruling Russia — a masculinity-driven image.

"However, even as the leader of a personalist #dictatorship — a regime in which there are few institutional limits on the leader’s power — Putin must balance competing interests among significant elites and maintain at least the appearance of public support in order to be considered a legitimate ruler.

"Until 2020, Putin was using gendered language in his speeches to signal his alignment with a variety of elites and public constituencies that supported him. He was sending mixed signals to both relatively progressive Russians who value women’s roles in the workplace and to #conservatives wishing for a return to '#TraditionalFamilyValues,' in order to keep everyone in his camp.

"But after July 2021, when he published an essay contending Ukrainians and Russians are a single people, Putin no longer shied away from making sexist and LGBTQ+-phobic comments in prominent settings.

"At an October 2021 meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club — a Moscow-based think tank and discussion forum that Putin is closely associated with — he said teaching children about #GenderFluidity was 'truly monstrous' and 'verging on a crime against humanity.'"

Corruption in Westminster

Do we expect any less?

One example, and probably a less venal one given the HoL of how people get into the House of Lords.

I any reasonable society this would not be acceptable. But hey, #England, #Labour, #Conservatives, #LibDems - what do you expect

Sucking at the teat - as I have heard some farmers 'discussing' perceived corruption amongst politicians.

Malcolm Macaskill laundered £200,000 of stolen funds through his local Conservative parties in Glasgow and Rutherglen, where he was treasurer and deputy chairman

Does anyone NOT REALISE that this is the only reason the CONservatives would have a presence there?

Conservative pro-corporate and anti-labor ideology devouring the Federal Government

"While Project 2025 and similar initiatives have been public about their plans to reshape the federal workforce, Trump and other figures in his administration have denied or downplayed links with the initiative. These documents provide further evidence that the implementation is already well underway, with designated personnel quietly drafting policies that were intended only to be publicly attributed to those in charge of the federal agencies."

"Claiming that #historians have unfairly vilified the 20th-century German dictator and misrepresented his role... many conservative pundits and activists argue that Adolf #Hitler’s Nazi allegiances have been greatly exaggerated... that as a German politician who rose to power in the 1930s, Hitler certainly had to work with the #Nazis, but that did not necessarily mean the group represented his beliefs.

"Where was Truss? She says she had been having an early breakfast at McDonald’s with her daughters before getting delayed on her way to the count by a freight train at a level crossing. Others believe she was deciding whether or not to attend at all."

as bad this is,
1) the 4 year count down hasnt even started yet
2) this and drones in the sky and everything else is intended to fill the news time and #bigcorp media time so no one is talking about the real plans.
#distraction is their main skill they bring to our government.

the #conservatives want their hands on the #socialSecurity money and #medicare money.

Killing those two systems is their number 1 goal in the next 4 years and they do not want anyone talking about it.


Racism is alive and well on the #CONservatives' red benches.
