Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

When it was UK child grooming gangs, Musk had an awful lot to say. Now it’s his own platform under pressure….not so much. Would dearly love to see some action taken here.

Build more reservoirs, more houses, better broadband, better mobile phone coverage, more solar and wind projects. I want to live in the 2020s, not the 1950s.
"New powers that come into force on Thursday 18 Dec will allow reservoirs to be built faster, enable a new scheme to slash energy bills for people living near pylons by up to £2,500, and support clean power projects being prioritised for grid connections to bolster Britain’s energy security."
Landmark Planning and Infrastructure Bill becomes law
The government's landmark Planning and Infrastructure Bill has received Royal Assent today.

Agree. My hope is that this awful crisis will finally sharpen everyone’s minds to the threats - internal and external - that the BBC is under. Gibb has been a malign influence for way too long. Get rid.
Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.
