  1. Prince William? David Cameron? JD Vance? Celebrities brace – and Staines celebrates – ahead of new Ali G film

  2. Nobel laureate channels actor Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat for make satire of outrageous Trump regime corruption.
    Paul Krugman -- who got his Nobel Prize in economics -- refers to the movie in which Cohen's character, Borat, played a journalist from Kazakhstan. Why? To highlight a corrupt mining deal that benefits the Trumps and their equally corrupt commerce secretary Howard Lutnick.
    Krugman points out that in the 500 days so far of Trump 2.0, the convicted felon and his cabal have totted up the equivalent of 500 Teapot Dome scandals in corrupt dealings. (The 1920s Teapot Dome Scandal was the biggest case of corruption in the US until Watergate in the 1970s.)
    So that probably makes this current corruption the worst in US history.
    What should we call it? Boratgate? Kazahkhstangate?paulkrugman.substack.com/p/cor

    I guess the good news is that Usaians do care about their democracy, even if less than they do about the economy. That’s something, considering redneck #Borat is thrashing both.

  6. “And Mark #Zuckerberg says, well, that's sort of more in keeping with the mainstream discourse. Those are the words he uses. That is in keeping with the mainstream discourse…[@caseynewton]

    “And I look at that and I think, oh, the standard on #Facebook now is that it's just gonna feel like a middle school playground, right? All of this stuff is stuff that I used to hear when I was 12 years old in Washington Middle School. Maybe not the trans bathroom stuff, that was sort of still yet to come…

    “Everything else I heard in seventh grade, and that is the new standard that Mark Zuckerberg has set for his property.”
