Hopefully there are more people repulsed by the actions of the fascist Republicans than there are MAGAs.

While fucking weasel Mike Johnson continues to play politics, children will suffer.

This is the Royal equivalent of the amputation of a gangrenous limb to stop the rest of The Firm getting infected.

An act of self-preservation.

If it was integrity, then they'd have booted Andrew out years ago.

They didn't.

Poor Kemi.
New - Harvey & Wheeler, the estate agents used by Rachel Reeves to rent out her property have apologised for an "oversight" after they did not apply for a licence on her behalf, having offered to do so.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Tim Walz: "People are gonna be lined up out here to get food, and we're talking about a damn ballroom. Don't lose the plot."

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

The old political duopoly is dead. Both the Tories and Labour are polling consistently below 20%. Reform are killing the Tories and the Lib Dems, Greens and Plaid are taking the progressive vote away from Labour. New progressive alignments are needed and most of all we need a fair electoral system.

I think the destruction of the east of the White House is symbolic of what he is doing to the country and its people.

But the Fanta Fascist and his backers will be alight.

The act of destruction is precisely the point: a kind of performance piece meant to display Trump’s arbitrary power over the Presidency, including its physical seat. He asks permission of no one, destroys what he wants, when he wants.

RIP EAST WING

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
You just know this "ballroom" is going to be crap, a golden carbuncle if you like.

Or, at best, this...

Leavitt: "At this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."
Great result for Plaid Cymru.

But worryingly a huge failure for Labour. The threat of Reform is real.

Labour need to start listening to the people. Yes, our economy is not performing but the answer is NOT in taxing workers more.

The message is clear, TAX the RICH.
