Iran is one of the most secretive, dictatorial and oppressive states on earth. And Donald Trump has managed to plumb such depths of misinformation that the Iranian regime’s statements now carry more credibility than those of the United States.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Christiane Amanpour, "Netanyahu has wanted to do this for decades, he has never believed in the diplomatic path"

"No American president has allowed him to do it until president Trump"

"In 2015, the nuclear deal enshrined at the UN, Iran was declared in compliance with its responsibilities"

"Since then President Trump decided under pressure from Netanyahu who never wanted these deals, he always wanted to destroy Iran's capability"

"Trump pulled out thinking he could do a better deal. He couldn't. He did nothing except Iran enriching to a higher degree"

"Iran was wanting to go to a new deal.. Just before these attacks the head of the delegation was feeling optimistic about this round of talks"

"The only people with heavy weight influence with Israel is the US"

"President Trump has failed on all the big foreign policy issues that he promised he would solve and quickly"

"And guess what, they've all got worse"

There really is only one choice in this election if you support freedom for Ukraine.

Brutal but appropriate … @radeksikorski

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Let me revise my last tweet.

Trump supports a black Nazi and if he loses the election it will be the fault of the Jews.

How are people still supporting this?

@FearghasKelly Brilliant! I'm sure the @ProjectLincoln and @gtconway3d would get a chuckle from this! 😆

Has @wself been proved spot on right about Farage, Trump and Brexit?

Nothing more than grubby little opportunists riding on the coattails of history!

33 million plus Americans are bi-racial. Highest percentage by far are younger voters. And just about all younger voters of course go to school, work with and have friends who are bi-racial.

Trump comes across as old, dated, mean and weird with his initial comments and now seems intent on tripling down. Of all the fights he could wage, this close to an election, he chooses this. Pure political maplractice.

🚨 BREAKING: Senator Bernie Sanders Publishes NYT Op-Ed in Support of President Biden

Wow! This is really good stuff from Bernie:

Sanders: “I will do all that I can to see that President Biden is re-elected. Why? Despite my disagreements with him on particular issues, he has been the most effective president in the modern history of our country and is the strongest candidate to defeat Donald Trump — a demagogue and pathological liar.

It’s time to learn a lesson from the progressive and centrist forces in France who, despite profound political differences, came together this week to soundly defeat right-wing extremism.”

This has been the best weekend for the European left for quite some time.

I love this.

Seeing a lot of growing hysteria about Labour’s vote share. Overstated. This was the election where tactical voting finally happened in significant numbers. And it didn’t happen by accident. Was a major plank of Starmer’s strategy.
