On Sunday, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood announced plans for sweeping new powers to allow the banning and restriction of protests. Her move came after the refusal of the Defend Our Juries campaign group to cancel Saturday’s demonstrations against the proscription of Palestine Action, which are increasingly becoming a mainstay on Parliament Square.

October 8th, 2025: If you scroll allll they way down to the bottom of the site (and you'r By now, you’ve noticed our brave patriots—ICE, the National Guard, police officers, select local mall cops, rando bodyguards, weird little incels, Klan members, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, some dudes we don’t know cosplaying as Walker, Texas Ranger—patrolling your city. Maybe even arriving via Blackhawk helicopter. What do we do out on patrol? We catch bad guys. Also, female grad students who may have written an article that was critical of Israel. We separate people from their kids. Tackle as many of them as possible. Zip-tie their toddlers and grandparents. And stand around looking tough. We look so tough. Increasingly, we also really need to take dumps. Look, there’s no time to dress it up with flowery language. These are sixteen-, eighteen-, and twenty-hour days spent out in public, on sidewalks, in parking lots, courthouse lobbies, napping in old Mazda 626s, you name it. It’s a lot of surveillance. A lot of wrestling. A lot of Zyns. A lot of energy drinks. And a lot of Panera and Taco Bell. A year ago, Chait said centrists were winning.

I wear the same T-shirt every day, and I have a relatably unkempt haircut. I remind you of the smart kids from high school, so I give you hope that the future might be okay. My company has a slogan like “Connect Everyone” or “Build Beautiful Stuff,” and I promise you that we’ll never quietly change that to something more morally ambiguous like “Do the Right Thing.” I’m about your age. Maybe a little older. People our age are chill and socially engaged, so I support things like civil rights, access to education, and medical research. You could never imagine me sitting in the front row at the inauguration of a far-right ruler who promised to destroy those things. Because I dropped out of Stanford to start this company, you know for sure that it’s my life’s work. I’ll always be at the helm, so the idea that I’ll hand over the company to an ex-McKinsey consultant and retire to a Hawaiian compound built on cleared forest is preposterous. The death followed months in immigration detention — and human rights groups’ condemnation of Belgium’s crackdown on protests.

After Trump cleared the way for Polymarket to operate legally in the U.S., Wall Street wants a piece of the prediction market’s profits.
I’m publishing an email I just sent to Ireland’s Minister for Justice, Jim O’Callaghan, on a truly hideous and anti-democratic European law that Ireland is strenuously supporting. It’s looking like Germany, which was strong on data protection, may crack and support this law, too. This week is make or break week for ‘chat control’, a […]
