"Zach Everson of Public Citizen pointed out that Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who controls the sovereign wealth of the United Arab Emirates, has directed hundreds of millions to Trump personally, buying 49% of the Trump familyâs World Liberty Financial and investing $2 billion of WLFâs USD1 stablecoin."

Ann Pettifor speaks for me!
Here's her six ways housing could be made for affordable in the UK:
1. Capital controls
2. Rent controls
3. Tax landlords
4. Build more public housing
5. Target second homes
6. Support first mortgages

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to MEAction Network (https://www.meaction.net/) and Visible (https://www.makevisible.com/) for the Visible band I won last month đ Having had ME/CFS for over 15 years I thought I knew everything about pacing but the Visible band has even taught this old dog some new tricks. Very cool đ

Probably the best piece of political journalism I have read this year so far. Florida is a wild place:

A couple more short quotes from the paper:
"Long COVID (LC) is a mass disabling event of significant public health concern ..."
"The clinical characteristics of Long COVID overlap with those of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and dysautonomia ... risk of both these conditions increases by up to 60% and 80%, respectively, after COVID infection."

ââFor OrbĂĄn in Hungary, it took about four years, for VuÄiÄ in Serbia, it took eight years, and for ErdoÄan in Turkey and Modi in India, it took about 10 years to accomplish the suppression of democratic institutions that Trump has achieved in only one yearâ

US democracy is now back at the worst recorded level since 1965, when US civil rights laws first introduced de facto universal suffrage. All progress made since then has been erased, according to the report.
Worldwide, democracy has receded to its lowest levels since the mid-70s. âThe world has never before seen as many countries autocratising at the same timeâ
âŠ
A record 41% (3.4 billion) of the worldâs population currently resides in countries where democracy is deteriorating, the report claims, adding that Washington is leading this global turn away from democracy.â
The very fucking *least* you can do right now is not comply in advance.
Yes, Iâm looking at you, tech folks.
