A 2006 contract between the Post Office and Fujitsu shows that both parties were aware of bugs in the Fujitsu’s Horizon accounting software, and also that Fujitsu could take control over the system, contradicting statements by the Post Office in its action against hundreds of sub-postmasters accused of fraud, some of whom took their own lives.

It’s going to be hard for the press to get their arms around everything going on. Honestly, it’s hard to get my head around it here on the ground: people are marching downtown, people are protesting at the airport, people are holding neighborhood protests, people are holding block parties out in the bitter cold…. It’s hard to even know where to be!

My inability to get a handle on the size of the crowd from inside the crowd is a metaphor for today writ large. In addition to the big downtown protest, there were multiple protests at the airport, clergy arrested for blocking the airport access road, at least two impromptu neighborhood protests I’m aware of near my house. There were food drives. There were street parties. Many businesses that were “closed” kept their doors open and offered free coffee, pancakes, warming spaces. Nobody really knows everything that happened.

Why did Republicans close ranks around Donald Trump in 2016,
when they could have salvaged their old party and rebuilt after losing?
From the vantage point of today, it’s easy to dismiss the notion. “That’s just what parties do, of course, particularly Republicans in their era of hyperpartisanship.”
But the people who might say that have forgotten how unsettled Republicans were a decade ago.
The idea that they might be forced to withdraw support from Trump and accep…

I find it hard, however, to take completely seriously a legal strategy document of this length that (1) imagines Congress doing any of this and (2) mentions the SCOTUS only twice, and then only in reference to its past upholding of law. I’m not convinced this is a piece that fully appreciates the severity of the current situation and the degree of institutional rot.

Congestive softener
A congestion softener is a party whose network operator, on the basis of the most up-to-date data from Annex 14, paragraph 1, determines that the allocation of transport capacity to this party leads to an increase in the available transport capacity, as referred to in Article 9.5, paragraph 4, for other parties and does not lead to an increase in congestion in another network part of that network operator or in the network of another network operator.

The fracturing of the Dutch far-right, after Wilder's reminded everyone that bigots are bad at compromise, is definitely a relief. Dutch folks I've talked to definitely see D66 as progressive, <strike>so there's no question this is a hard turn to the left (even if it's not a total flip to the far-left)</strike> a lot of folks don't agree. I'm going to let the comments speak rather than editorialize myself..
While this is a useful example of how a democracy can be far more resilient to fascism than the US, that is, perhaps, not the most interesting thing about Dutch politics. The most interesting thing is something Dutch folks take for granted and never think of as such: there are two "governments."
The election was for the Tweede Kamer. This is a house of representatives. The Dutch use proportional representation, so people can (more or less) vote for the parties they actually want. Parties <strike>rarely</strike> never actually get a ruling majority, so they have to form coalition governments. This forces compromise, which is something Wilders was extremely bad at. He was actually responsible for collapsing the coalition his party put together, which triggered this election... and a massive loss of seats for his party.
Dutch folks do still vote strategically, since a larger party has an easier time building the governing coalition and the PM tends to come from the largest party. This will likely be D66, which is really good for the EU. D66 has a pretty radical plan to solve the housing crisis, and it will be really interesting to see if they can pull it off. But that's not the government I want to talk about right now.
In the Netherlands, failure to control water can destroy entire towns. A good chunk of the country is below sea level. Both floods and land reclamation have been critical parts of Dutch history. So in the 1200's or so, the Dutch realized that some things are too important to mix with normal politics.
You see, if there's an incompetent government that isn't able to actually *do* anything (see Dick Schoof and the PVV/VVD/NSC/BBB coalition) you don't want your dikes to collapse and poulders to flood. So the Dutch created a parallel "government" that exists only to manage water: waterschap or heemraadschap (roughly "Water Board" in English). These are regional bureaucracies that exist only to manage water. They exist completely outside the thing we usually talk about as a "government" but they have some of the same properties as a government. They can, for example, levy taxes. The central government contributes funds to them, but lacks authority over them. Water boards are democratically elected and can operate more-or-less independent of the central government.
Controlling water is a common problem, so water boards were created to fulfill the role of commons management. Meanwhile, so many other things in politics run into the very same "Tragedy of the Commons" problems. The right wing solution to commons management is to let corporations ruin everything. The left-state solution is to move everything into the government so it can be undermined and destroyed by the right. The Dutch solution to this specific problem has been to move commons management out of the domain of the central government into something else.
And when I say "government" here, I'm speaking more to the liberal definition of the term than to an anarchist definition. A democratically controlled authority that facilitates resource management lacks the capacity for coercive violence that anarchists define as "government." (Though I assume they might leverage police or something if folks refuse to pay their taxes, but I can't imagine anyone choosing not to.)
As the US federal government destroys the social fabric of the US, as Trump guts programs critical to people's survival, it might be worth thinking about this model. These authorities weren't created by any central authority, they evolved from the people. Nothing stops Americans from building similar institutions that are both democratic and outside of the authority of a government that could choose to defund and abolish them... nothing but the realization that yes, you actually can.

The FBI has arrested a suspect five years after an unidentified person placed two pipe bombs outside the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic national parties in Washington.
Agents arrested Brian J. Cole Jr., 30, of Woodbridge, Virginia, on explosive charges.
Calls to relatives of Cole listed in public records were not immediately returned.
The mystery behind the person’s identity has bedeviled law enforcement and helped fuel conspiracy theories about Jan. 6, 2021, …

Someone has encouraged me to engage in party politics by joining a political party. However, I oppose it, because political parties often represent interests that conflict with my own values and belief system.
Rather than aligning myself with parties that promote agendas incompatible with my views, I want to organiz my local community, prioritizing grassroots involvement and direct democratic participation over representative party politics.
As a syndicalist, I firmly believe tha…

Common sense and history show that
donors will often use political parties as conduits
to evade limits on individual contributions,
increasing the risk of quid pro quo corruption.

The US House has approved a sweeping defence bill
that bolsters Europe’s security,
in what appears to be sharp rebuke to Donald Trump’s mounting threats
to downgrade Washington’s ties to traditional allies and Nato.
The bipartisan vote came just days after the publication of a White House national security strategy
that said Europe faced “civilisational erasure”
and made explicit Washington’s support for Europe’s nationalist far-right parties
– rattl…

The US supreme court is set on Tuesday to hear arguments
in a Republican-led challenge on free speech grounds to
federal limits on spending by political parties in coordination with electoral candidates
in a case involving JD Vance.
Donald Trump’s administration has thrown its support behind the challenge,
brought by plaintiffs including two Republican committees and the vice-president,
who was running for the US Senate in Ohio when the case began.

France starved, Louis and Marie build magnificent buildings, threw fancy parties, and glutted on exotic foods.
Too bad Trump slept through history classes.
It didn’t turn out well for them,
and I hope Trump eventually sees accountability.

Republicans hold a 219-213 majority in the House,
but they could lock in more seats if reapportionments go their way
Normally, redistricting only occurs after the US census counts residents in each state every 10 years.
But a demand from Donald Trump to lock in more Republican-leaning districts in Congress,
together with a changing legal landscape around partisan gerrymandering,
set off a chain of mid-decade reapportionments.
Republicans and Democrats have…
