Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

We need to decouple/unspecial our relationship with America. I know it can’t be instant and we have much at stake. But we need to embrace Europe as best we can as fast as we can and edge away from US as quickly as possible (responsibly).

The same people who spent yesterday, and the past five years, insisting a Black police officer who shot an insurrectionist breaking into the Capitol should be prosecuted are today bending over backwards to defend an ICE agent who shot a woman in her car in cold blood.

Scum.

It is news to me that U.S. Federal law now extends to other countries. So the PM of Australia can be whisked out of his country and tried in NYC and no one will fucking blink?
Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.

This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

They don't understand we don't want off the record briefings, we don't want gossip and tit bits from journos too close to politicians of any party. Its been too cosy for too long. They still have made absolutely no effort to understand Labour under Starmer, or why the Tories lost. Tough

The echoes of Nuremberg ripple down through history to wave hello to these ghouls and point to the table they already have reserved for them.
Think about all the evil assholes in this administration.

They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities.

They learned they will never be punished.

If I came from a family that has held a seat in House of Lords for 7 generations and used it to protect their vast empire from Tax and Inheritance Tax.

I probably wouldn't be complaining about free bus passes for Senior Citizens.

You’d need to reinstate Radio 4 Longwave in order to cover all the councils with alternate week collections in different parts of the borough.
‘SE7, dry recycling only, becoming non-recyclable waste later.’
A radio programme like the Shipping Forecast but it’s called Bin Day and it just reads out every single council in the country’s bin schedule

The Sure Start programme was revolutionary - the data shows it.

The Tories closed many of them down.

But Labour are bringing them back through the new Family Hubs.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

I see Nigel Farage is back to claiming he "predicted" the war between Russia and Ukraine in the EU Parliament, when in fact he spoke AFTER the annexation of Crimea, to defend Russia and claim it was all the EU's fault.

Best city comment ever:

Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon 'Umm Qasr is a city similar to Southampton'. A British squaddie was quick to correct him, explaining: 'Umm Qasr has no beer, no prostitutes and people are shooting at us. It's more like Portsmouth.'

Given how much the China spy case has dominated headlines, it really does beg the question: why is our political-media class so uninterested in Nathan Gill, his Russian bribes, his once close associate Nigel Farage, and Reform UK?

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.
