Thank you for all your posts and on-air interviews. So much. You and your compatriots in the resistance have my deepest respect and appreciation. You are the guardians of our democracy, of truth, of decency, of laws. Could not face the coming darkness without your beacons of light, hope, and scathing condemnations of what we are now and will continue to witness- and be battered by. As Churchill famously said, we will never yield.
"I’m sorry, but this triggered my Fucktose Intolerance, which makes me unable to tolerate rank bullshi"
You did not provide a real quote of the AfD saying the Nazis were not criminals, you simply posted a link of some soboi saying that. My fucktose intolerance was trigger too.
Happy Holidays. Love the dogs. Love your substack. But curious why you haven't tackled this: Donald Trump may only be installed as President of the United States if amnesty has been provided to him as an insurrectionist by 2/3 majority vote, as required by Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.

Wishing all a peaceful and joyous holiday season; however you celebrate (or not celebrate, for that matter). I plan to take this time to reflect on what is good in my life.
Thank you very much, Mr. Sykes, for your reporting this past year. Wishing you and all your loved ones much peace, joy, and health in the coming new year.
The Yascha Mounk link is a whining, long winded rant about Bluesky that could easily describe Substack. There are right-wing cranks on both platforms, as well as trolls, as well as hypocrites, as well as "progressives" who apparently are even worse than fascists? Please..... spare me the self righteous complaining.
Can’t decide what I liked better between the story of Kay Granger - the Republican congresswoman with admitted mental problems as opposed to many with un admitted mental problems or the picture of Elon as a Nazi symbol.
Why oh why do we have Musk in our face now, tweeting away,,,cannot the US Congress stop him????? He needs to be x’d out and let Congress Govern….IMO Musk and JD are waiting for tDump to become incapacitated and take over with Peter Thiel in play as well…or do 25th amendment and just plain take over. We are f——-ing in trouble here…JDVance is a AFD sympathizer as well…we are heading RIGHT!!!! Off the cliff….. Thank you for the dog pictures they brighten my life today…Happy Holiday & Joy to the World
Kay Granger has dementia. I am sure the leadership of the GOP knew all about it and covered it up in just the same way they have accused Democrats of hiding Joe Biden's supposed mental decline. She entered Congress as a social moderate but has rapidly transformed into a MAGA adjacent politician. One can't help wonder how much of this was due to her dementia.
I think this should trigger new discussions about upward age limits for Congresspersons, Presidents and Judges.

Elon Musk’s Puppet President: How Trump Became a Billionaire’s Marionette at America’s Expense
When a ruthless tech mogul pulls the strings and a so-called populist bows down, America spirals into chaos—leaving red-state voters to pay the price.

So why did my president make Elon Musk even richer for the past four years with government contracts and money? This has got to stop.
Well, at least we won't have a life without meaning. Somebody has to be the opposition so let it be us.
Merry Christmas to all the four-and two-legged beings at the Sykes home! Tip one for me.

Elon Uber Alles.

Merry Christmas to Charlie, Auggie,and Eli!! You have absolutely beautiful dogs!!
What they are doing to Kay Granger is beyond cruel. If they can do this to one of their own, imagine what they're willing to do to us.
Merry Christmas to you, Charlie.

My god, man. Fucktose Intolerance. I am absolutely going to start using that, and I don’t even swear much. Merry Christmas!
