Bondi’s announcement comes as several federal agencies have been beset by constant — and often embarrassing — leaks.

    You just gotta love how these people heard this phrase in courts and thought: “It sounds so official, I’ll use that too!” yet they somehow completely missed that that was always prefixed with a huge list of factual reasons why they have come to that conclusion

      Eh, not just America. Both France and Germany are seeing a rise in right-wing ideologies, not to mention the countries where they’re already in power.

        Poland as well. It’s honestly happening everywhere, and I suspect Russia is funding a lot of it worldwide.

            They have a right wing anti-EU, anti -LGBTQ populist candidate polling in the 20-25% range that - surprise, surprise - wants to withdraw Ukraine support.

        The UK is likely to leap to the right next time they have an election too. They had a decade and a half of terrible right-wing government then voted for something else, but what they got was terrible centrist government and they’re frustrated. The centrists expelled all the left politicians from the Labour Party, so now the choice in England at least is Labour’s centrism-with-bigotry, incompetent Conservative, neo-fascist, another fairly directionless centrist party that appears to be led by a clown, or Green. Because people are angry, it’s likely to flip far right.
