Here is a temperature map (in celsius) of the USA today, during what is being called the "Big Freeze". Ukraine was colder than this basically every day from Jan 5-23. And thanks to the USA helping Putin, the country was starved of heat and power.

I repost not for sensationalism but because this terrible picture may well become a defining image of the Trump regime.

Trump’s goons don't just put their fingers on the scales of justice here in the U.S. They do it in cases involving other countries’ corrupt leaders, from France to Brazil, who face prosecution. Shameful.

Added to which, as he has a blue tick he can still create sexualised images of dead people and children and to stop him having the right to do that is an infringement of his basic civil liberties, right?

Why TF would we care about his business…? Did he care about all the SMEs bankrupted by Brexit? Does he feel any anxiety or shame about just how much that stupid idea has cost our country and many of us personally.
No.
He can absolutely do one.

This ludicrous Telegraph piece calls the bonus Labour’s bit.ly/4j2gEwg it was introduced in 1972 by Edward Heath (Conservative) and was worth far more than a week’s pension which was £6.75. It has never been cancelled by any govt (Conservative or Labour) or uprated.
Labour’s Christmas bonus. It’s for welfare claimants of course

The hero of Bondi: Ahmed el Ahmed, a 43 year old fruit shop owner from Sutherland. He grabbed the gun off one of the terrorists shooting at Jews during a Hanukkah celebration.
Ahmed was then shot in the leg and shoulder by another terrorist. He’s being treated in the hospital and expected to be OK.
