Estonia's liberal PM @ratasjuri - member of @guyverhofstadt's ALDE - has invited far right nationalists to form a coalition. Anything to say @ALDEgroup ?
"No comment" from @guyverhofstadt and @ALDEgroup after Estonia's liberals embrace far-right nationalist eurosceptics in coalition talks
EU liberal leader @guyverhofstadt has now written to Estonia's @ratasjuri warning him not to get into bed with a far-right party "reminiscent of fascist regimes in Europe". Says any coalition would cause "irreparable damage" to his party's relationship with Alde.

EU27 ambassadors had long session on Brexit next steps. Countries are divided on how much their leaders should be prepared to grant an extension at next week's summit. A small hard-line camp says "do nothing", but most want to be ready to give UK something by 21st pending request
Ambassadors asked commission to come up with a water tight legal analysis on what happens if UK remains member state after May and position of European Parliament. Is expected before the summit. EP lawyers are clear: parliament can legitimately constitute on July 2 without elex
One thing EU ambassadors all agreed on: there is no way the UK will be able to implement its tariff schedule on time for an no deal. Leading to general exasperation that the Brits haven't done their homework

Selmayr and Barnier briefed EU27 ambassadors on Brexit "deadlock" today. Described increasingly "confrontational" mood with Brits & said any House of Commons vote was destined to fail. Commission ramping up its no deal planning and looking eyeing May 24 for end of extension
EU also offered Brits some additional guarantees to make legally binding the "best endeavours" language on the arbitration mechanism. All to be deposited at the UN in Geneva like Cox wanted. But was rejected by the Brits hence "bleak" mood music around Brussels today
Ambassadors were told there is a legal opinion from the European Council which states that a Brexit extension can be granted to June but will be up to leaders to decide whether they want to grant it and the implications for the European Parliament elections

for my friends in the democratic socialists of america who still believe "only liberals care about fascism," it may interest you to know that one of the targets on this very armed, very dangerous white supremacist's hit list was DSA.
see? there we are, right between 'angela davis' and 'van jones' on this excel murder spreadsheet.
i'm frustrated. i need every DSA member to understand that *WE ARE ALL* at risk. too many of y'all feel like if you aren't doing antifascist work, fascists won't come for you. that you are safe & separate from us on your side of the big tent.

SG:”FSB broke the law.
CA/SCL broke the law.
VoteLeave/LeaveEU broke the law.
Brexit & Trump both won via laws broken.
FSB facilitated & covered it up.”

Butina is just the tip of the RU iceberg

DonJr’s meeting with the RU agents st Tump Tower is an example of how enterprise and espionage go hand in hand.

This was a bit too lazy and glib on my part. This subject deserves more careful, clear explanation on what's wrong and why here. So that's what I'm going to do here 1/?
Lets' start with the headline "George Soros, the man who 'broke the Bank of England' backs secret plot to thwart Brexit". This is worth unpacking. The substance of the article, and Nick Timothy's comment piece, is an organisation "Best for Britain" that Soros has helped finance
The organisation is public. The goals of the organisation - to secure and win a second referendum - are public. Timothy's article quotes previous public statements by Lord Malloch-Brown (another backer). They're headed by Gina Miller, who is not exactly averse to publicity.
