.@Nigel_Farage tells me he now believes a second referendum is likely and will be preparing for it with a message to the people of “never trusting the lying, repugnant politicians” ever again and to this time win “by a margin so big they can’t ignore us”.

Last night and Salzburg both confirmed something terrifying about Theresa May: Her public evasiveness doesn’t hide some grand secret strategy that she refuses to divulge. The whole strategy is meaningless platitudes. There is nothing behind the curtain https://t.co/5NQcuaDjxG

#Brexit .. I wonder when will the penny drop in the DUP camp how its behaviour is imperilling the Union and at the same time realising a step change in so many nationalist minds?

That time Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev bought Trump's Palm Beach mansion for $54 million more than Trump had paid to buy it just four years earlier.
Rybolovlev made the purchase without conducting an inspection or obtaining an appraisal

What is absent from this exchange is that, in fact, Putin did win in 2016. Today, the GOP is the pro-Putin party. He owns the Majority Leader, if not the departing weak-knees Speaker. (Ryan is a legacy Speaker — worst in modern American history.) https://t.co/O4PtJ0QVld

Trump is so outmatched by @RepAdamSchiff that it’s not even a fair fight. I knew when he was my con law student that he was dynamite, and now it’s obvious to the world. Read this spot-on profile by another superb former student of mine, @JeffreyToobin:https://t.co/kESSsQMP1X

What this girl + her father must have survived to reach our shores. The things he must have told her in the darkest moments — about a country worth the journey, a place where the suffering would stop. Instead, this. Devastating. https://t.co/ggbt0pNjiS

Last night, Tucker Carlson opened his show by saying immigration makes America “poorer, and dirtier, and more divided."
An offensive, dehumanizing and racist statement.

There's precious little that I agreed with in The Weekly Standard, but its demise after not marching in lockstep with the Trump-whipped GOP is a big loss. It offered what is nonexistent in the Trump White House: intelligent discourse. https://t.co/Mpo0Jwr0Dl
