"In a way, it’s nice that SS-GB is set in an alternate universe where the Nazis won. Because, deep down, it makes me hope that another alternate universe exists where SS-GB is good or interesting or, at the very least, doesn’t make its audience feel like it’s drowning in cold tea."

"It is reported that the outrageous group claimed to be celebrating a baptism, and put down a £770 deposit at the El Carmen restaurant in Bembibre, in northern Spain. Then, before dessert could be served, the huge group got up to conga – and danced away to their cars without paying."

"Fashion’s attempts to intellectualise getting dressed fail at least as often as they succeed. I have sat front row and read enough pretentious show notes that make me want to stab myself in the eye with my Smythson pencil to know that better than most. But in our new dumbed-down world, where public debate is debased by “locker-room talk” and constitutional government overruled by ungrammatical tweets, the argument for at least trying to keep intelligent and nuanced conversation going seems pretty strong."

Resistance starts with the simple but revolutionary act of refusing to accept what you are told by those with power. The Guardian is extensively covering the people, ideas, and actions driving the global resistance movement spurred by the Trump presidency. We've launched a new project, The Resistance Now, to cover these efforts and engage around issues from politics to climate change, reproductive rights, workers rights, equality, immigration, racial justice and more.

Most of the 122 were released under George W Bush.

Trump tweeted an erroneous fact Tuesday, which appeared to mischaracterize a 2016 intelligence report tracking former Guantánamo Bay inmates

"Obamacare helped 20 million previously uninsured Americans to get healthcare and it is feared that the bill will leave many of these without health cover. Under the existing system, the poorest get the most help. The Republicans’ proposals are more market-oriented, based mostly on age, with an element on income."

How does the plan differ from Obamacare, will the proposals leave millions of Americans without health cover and will it pass?
