  1. Give MPs a vote on #NHS #pharma deal with Trump

    #UK govt agreed deal with #Trump where #OurNHS pay pharma companies much higher #drugs prices

    The cost to #NHS £45 billion by 2036. Govt has refused to say how the UK will pay for this, or give MPs a vote on the deal.

    Research in the #British #Medical Journal shows that diverting NHS funds to pay for it would result in more than 200,000 avoidable #deaths of #patients by 2036

  2. Why didn‘t we develop this type of #battery in Europe? Why don‘t we develop something similar and hopefully even better soon? Don’t leave #technology to #dictatorial China, another Putin ally, next to Trump.

  3. Of course, everyone is greatly relieved that #Orban has been thoroughly driven out. Now he has to prove whether things will get better under #Magyar.

    Orban will likely neither understand nor acknowledge that the majority in #Hungary was fed up with him and his backward #dictatorial #policies. Such insight is incapable of such people, which of course includes Trump in particular.

  4. #Human kneels to no #ICE or #SS,
    human fears no #dictatorial decree -
    where chains are sold as holy relic,
    human comes alive, roaring to be free.

  5. Russia declares #HumanRightsWatch undesirable organization

    Our work hasn’t changed, what’s changed is #Russian government’s full-throttled embrace of #dictatorial policies, staggering rise in #repression, & scope #WarCrimes its committing in #Ukraine

    The designation prohibits groups from operating within Russia & makes it a criminal offense for individuals to participate in their activities

  6. Interestingly enough, if the U.S. gov hates #immigrants so much they could simply stop bombing other #countries and installing #dictatorial regimes that are friendly to #US #economic interests and funding #terrorist orgs that directly cause these immigration/ #refugee crises.

  7. The only way for #Americans to curb (not stop) just slow down
    the #dictatorial #fascist take over of #Trump and the #Heritage #Foundation
    is to give back to the #Democrats control of #Parliament and #Senate
    thus limiting the excessive power of the Trump regime,
    which will continue to 'maneuver' the #SCOTUS
    but at least one of the three powers of the state will not be under his control.

  8. The #Council of #Europe has signed an agreement with #Ukraine to establish a #tribunal for #Russia 's crimes. However, #Putin, #Mishustin, and #Lavrov have been exempted. Tribunal can only initiate proceedings against them once they leave office.

    In essence, this turns a #dictatorial lifetime regime into a competitive advantage. The more crimes regime commits, the more protected it becomes.

    A peculiar kind of tribunal, its claws and fangs pulled out from the beginning.

  9. As Election Nears, Kelly Warns #Trump Would Rule Like a #Dictator

    #JohnKelly, the Trump White House’s longest-serving chief of staff, said that he believed that #DonaldTrump met the definition of a #fascist.

    By Michael S. Schmidt
    Oct. 22, 2024

    "In response to a question about whether he thought Mr. Trump was a fascist, Mr. Kelly first read aloud a definition of fascism that he had found online.

    "'Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a #FarFight #authoritarian, #ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a #dictatorial leader, centralized #autocracy, #militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy,' he said."

  10. There's so much more to it than this. I #worked in a #job where they told you to get up & #walk around #hourly, provided #mentalhealth #people & had #volunteers to #talk to if you were #bullied & more. All of it #boxticking as #workloads were too heavy to take 5 mins each hour, the #mental #health #team shared #data on us & the #bullying #reports were never written. #Employers provide things but counter it with their #dictatorial #behaviours. #covid was ignored. theguardian.com/society/2024/o #sickness

  11. It's very interesting
    especially for a non-American
    to follow these #elections
    in which
    NOT only the 'Presidency' is at stake but rather the future of a #Nation
    (for the next decades)
    poised between #Democratic #Liberal 'Enlightenment'
    and
    #illiberal #anti-democratic #dictatorial #pseudo-religious obscurantism

    and see which #US #States according to their political preferences are the most
    backward and which are the most advanced.
    (it helps to know what kind of people you're dealing with).

  12. What the First #Debate Question for #Trump Must Be

    The moderators ought to start with the fact that he rejects the foundations of the American system of #government.

    by Tom Nichols

    “I find it exhausting to have to point out that Donald Trump has—yet again—threatened to engage in #violent & #dictatorial behavior, & that—yet again—the collective reaction by some in #America seems to be a numb acceptance that this is just who Trump is.

  13. 2016 Republican convention let extremists in. 2024 they took over

    #Extremists actually dominated the main stage

    #Rightwing extremist rhetoric moved from sidelines to main stage; obscure activists to top party figures

    Joe Lowndes, a political science professor at Hunter College said: In 2016 #Maga was an effective movement which was insurgent & combative. Now they have space to work out new forms of far-right politics

  14. #Canada is #unprepared for life next to a dictator because geographic isolation long protected us from invasion and war. #Canadian #governments simply assumed that the #USA would shield us from foreign threats. But if the U.S. becomes #dictatorial, where would that leave Canada?

    Canada needs to become more economically #SelfReliant and deepen #economic and #political ties with other #democracies, and #ally with #American opponents of #dictatorship.

  15. #Trump is trying to establish a justification for the #dictatorial actions he's already intending to take if he wins the #2024election. These #passiveAggressive #threats are as transparent as they are #pathetic. Trump is terrified of the potential #consequences of the 91 #felony counts he's facing, and is desperately trying to weasel his way out of legal #jeopardy. Why would anyone vote for this evil sack of shit?

  16. "I see #liberal #solutions to the rise of #fascism is still "#vote harder"

    "to say #hitler came to power in an #election is also very #misleading, especially for #audiences who don’t live under #parliamentary #systems of #governments. he lost the #presidential #election of ‘32. the #nazi party had won a plurality, but lacked a majority. one of #hitlers opponents in the presidential election, paul von #hindenberg, appointed him the #chancellorship. it was after the reichstag fire that hitler convinced hindenberg to pass #laws curtailing #citizens rights, and which it can be said that hitler had come into his #dictatorial power. not by him being elected as supreme #ruler."
