Hilarious. The WH had all the Cabinet members simultaneously put out statements supporting Susie Wiles after the Vanity Fair article came out.

When you drift through some unheralded point in your 40s, you start accumulating actuarial risks.

The odds of illness, heart attack, or the chances losing of a parent go up.

But there is another risk- particularly acute for men.

There is a risk you will lose your capacity for joy.

The fact is no presenter has ever had to leave the BBC for expressing conservative views, or even explicitly endorsing a right-wing party.

Was never a problem for Jeremy Clarkson. Was never a problem for Andrew Neil. Was never a problem for Alan Sugar
Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

So Robin Ince has to resign for basically being a decent human being but Sharron Davies still commentates on the swimming?

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

I’d like to think it’s pretty obvious what’s been going on when the likes of this guy and Lineker are getting hounded out, and absolutely roaring spite-crazed headbangers like Sharon Davies are not only welcome but are being given non-jobs for life in the legislature

Remember the US trade deal that Starmer announced with huge fanfare?

Would it surprise you to learn that it's stuck?

As I (and many others) pointed out at the time, it was merely the outline of negotiations, not a done deal.

And now Trump wants more, of course, including weaker UK food standards.

Remarkable how brutal the ruling against Trump on Abrego Garcia truly is: It details flagrant and malicious abuses of power all throughout. Trump and Stephen Miller were testing their ability to spread lawless state terror. But the court held the line. 1/

Fiasco for Trump as Judge Issues Harsh Rebuke in Abrego Garcia Case
Judge Paula Xinis’s ruling temporarily freed Kilmar Abrego Garcia from custody. It also savagely indicted Trump’s lawless handling of this whole affair from start to finish.

When I heard someone say Epstein trafficked more than a thousand women, it stopped me cold. Then I remembered this and it clicked: it all ties back to white supremacy.

Epstein was obsessed with genetic engineering, eugenics, and “improving” humanity, including his own DNA. It’s documented.

Peter Thiel, Sam Altman and Marc Andresson have a ton of money in Próspsra, an island off of Honduras that had the same basic setup, but was shut down after Hernandez was no longer the president. Number one reason Trump pardoned him..

Funny thing about the pardoned Honduran president is that he supported the creation of a Thiel and a16z-backed network state. What @bencollins.bsky.social is taking about already exists around the globe. One of these VC dudes bought an island in Singapore and started“Network school”

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!
