Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records

The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.

Badenoch and Co see education only as a means to a massive income in some soul destroying career.

Devoid of imagination and the power of knowledge they view life entirely through the prism of the CV.

My advice always is to study what interests you and the rest will follow

3/4 A story needs telling again and again - both hers and that of the Chechens. Variable accents aside, this a very strong cast and is a well executed [pun intended] film.

2/4 While Anna was ultimately silenced, her legacy lives on and her essential story serves as a reminder of the dangers that journalists face and the importance of protecting their right to report the news without fear of death or reprisal.

3/4 The film blends documentary footage with fictionalised, co-created scenes, giving Davaa and Zaya a voice as the film's co-writers, according to Cineuropa.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

It was mentioned multiple times, though for obvious legal reasons they did not delve into it. I just felt that there have been so many iconic moments/designs/fashion trends outside of that [and Beckham's Predators] and they should have been given time/space.

Mr. Pope, I'm not a religious worm, but could you ask God if we could trade Stephen Miller to get Jane Goodall back? Thx.

Try roselle tea. Preferably just the dried roselle flower with hot water. Wonderful.

3/3 One of those finely crafted, under-the-radar sci films that deserves a wider audience [of which there have been many in recent years]. An intriguing story as events unfold,; brilliantly shot and with sound design just adds to its odd atmosphere.

Near-future discomfort. Essential viewing.

2/3 When unsettling events and a mysterious presence plague their isolated property, their relationship deteriorates as Jack's controlling behaviour and secretive biotechnology experiments come to light, forcing Layla to uncover a disturbing secret about their farm and her own life. #scifi #sci-fi
