Now would be a good time to remind everyone of these Trump facts, because apparently some people still need the refresher. Please meet the President of the United States: Flew on Epstein’s plane at least seven times. Just friends, I guess. Pleaded the Fifth more than 400 times in a single deposition. Nothing says “innocent” like refusing to answer a single question about your own business. 34 felony convictions. A record most people would call disqualifying. And 91 criminal charges. Accused of sexual misconduct or assault by at least 26 women. But sure, tell me again how he’s a great guy. 6 corporate bankruptcies. The self proclaimed greatest businessman alive somehow keeps running out of money. 5 draft deferments. Funny how the toughest guy in the room never actually showed up for duty. 4 criminal indictments. Not two. Not three. Four. 2 impeachments. A club of exactly one president. 2 of his own companies convicted of criminal tax fraud. Convicted. Not accused. Convicted. 1 fake university shut down. 1 fake charity shut down. Even his charity was a grift. Paid 25 million dollars to settle the Trump University fraud lawsuit because scamming people who believed in you costs money eventually. Ordered to pay 5 million dollars in the first E Jean Carroll sexual abuse verdict, then hit with 83.3 million more in the second. A jury said it twice so nobody could pretend it was a fluke. Ordered to pay 2 million dollars for looting his own so called charity. Stealing from a charity with his own name on it. Found liable for business fraud and originally slapped with a penalty topping 450 million dollars, later thrown out on appeal while the fraud finding itself stuck to him anyway. First president in modern history to increase the deficit every single year of a full term. Fiscal responsibility, apparently, was always just a talking point. Kept the debt to GDP ratio above 100 percent for his entire first term. Presided over the largest single day point drop in Dow Jones history at the time. So much for the guy who claimed to be a genius with money. Set the record for the longest government shutdown in US history in his first term at 35 days, then couldn’t resist beating his own miserable record in his second term with a 43 day shutdown, followed by yet another shutdown just months later. Encore nobody asked for. Added roughly 2.25 trillion dollars to the national debt in his first year back in office alone, pushing the debt past 39 trillion dollars. Somebody remind me who the party of fiscal discipline is again. Pushed through the largest defense budget increase since World War Two while the debt kept climbing anyway. Purged more than 300,000 federal employees in his first year back. Efficient, if your goal is chaos. Pardoned nearly 1,600 January 6 Capitol rioters. At least 40 of those pardoned rioters have already been rearrested, charged, or sentenced for new crimes since walking free. Shocking absolutely nobody. His family’s crypto ventures, including a meme coin and World Liberty Financial, pulled in more than 1.4 billion dollars in disclosed earnings while he sat in the Oval Office. Draining the swamp was apparently code for filling his own pockets. Sent the National Guard into American cities at a cost of nearly 500 million taxpayer dollars in 2025 alone. His own tariffs are projected to cost the average American household more than 2,500 dollars this year. You’re paying for this. Not China. You. No more foreign wars. Peace deal with Russia and Ukraine on Day One. None of this is a conspiracy theory, a rumor, or something you saw in a group chat. It is the actual, documented record, sitting in plain sight for anyone willing to look. So the next time someone tells you to relax and give him a chance, ask them how many more indictments, judgments, and shutdown records he needs to rack up before that chance runs out.

I cannot stop thinking about three families who sent their children to elementary school this morning and will never bring them home again. So spare me the fucking thoughts and prayers. Spare me the speeches about how now isn't the time to talk about guns. And spare me the politicians who have spent YEARS refusing meaningful gun-safety laws while telling the rest of us that massacred children are somehow the unavoidable price America must pay for their interpretation of the Second Amendment. FUCK THAT. Children being slaughtered in their elementary school is not the price of freedom. It is a fucking national disgrace. And don't even start with “if the teachers were armed.” They're TEACHERS. They went to work today to teach children how to read and multiply and make friends. They are not fucking marksmen. Turning an elementary school into a crossfire because politicians refuse to confront America's gun problem isn't a solution. It's insanity. Three children are dead. Three families have been destroyed. Hundreds of other little kids just experienced something no child should ever see. So to every politician who blocks meaningful gun-safety laws and then races to a microphone after another classroom fills with blood: Keep your fucking thoughts and prayers. Do your fucking job. cnn.com/2026/10/15/us/oregon…

Halestorm's Lzzy Hale has spoken out in the wake of the Cornell University case in which members of a fraternity are accused of sexually assaulting a young woman. “If you are the kind of man who thinks it’s ok to reduce another human being to nothing more than something you can stick your dick into… there is something severely wrong with you. You are not a ‘promising young man’, you are a sick monster that needs to be punished and prevented from having contact with other humans. "And if you are the kind of man who stands idly by while witnessing a rape (yes even if you saw it in a group chat you are still a witness to that r*pe), and choose to do nothing/say nothing… you are Not “the good guy” you are an accessory to the sexual assault and also need to be brought to justice, because we don’t want your kind walking among us either.” consequence.net/2026/10/lzzy…

Anyone recognise these dudes?
I took this at the Eleanor Rigby bench Liverpool in 1997, on my first visit to the city. I got good-natured scouse banter when I asked if I could take their picture in my Southern accent! It's a lovely natural shot and I have no idea who they were - I'd love to know. @babylonpink

Just intervened to stop these five nasty thugs wearing Kingstanding Patriots tops beating up a black guy they picked on randomly by the IMAX. They’ve now headed toward the South Bank and I’ve called the @metpoliceuk who have gone off in search of them.

There is some incredible detective work happening right now around one lost 9/11 photograph, and the story keeps getting better. Just five days ago, @jonwalczak , director of 32 Frames, posted Frame #20 and asked for help identifying the seven people seen evacuating the World Trade Center shortly before the North Tower collapsed. At the time, none of them had been identified. Walczak also pointed out that the same group appears in a photograph taken by FDNY firefighter Bertram Springstead. Then, buried in the replies, @StanleySkoglund suggested that two of the people might be Paul Carris and Judith Toppin, whose escape was later featured in the BBC podcast 'The Woman Who Saved My Life'. That opened everything up. Within days, Frank Varriano was confirmed by his family. Others began falling into place. Walczak eventually spoke directly with Paul Carris, who was stunned to see a photograph of himself escaping that he never knew existed. We now know this single image captured two separate rescue stories. Frank Varriano and Mak Hanna helped Moe Lipson escape. Lipson, who was on the 88th floor of the North Tower, is often described as the oldest person to escape the towers that day. Paul Carris helped Judith Toppin escape from the 71st floor. Judith went on to write a poem that spread quickly called “Angels Walk Among Us”, which detailed her harrowing escape from the north tower. Dennis Switaj has also been identified, leaving only one person in the photograph still unknown. Most of these people had no idea this photo even existed. More than 25 years later, they are seeing themselves escaping the North Tower only minutes before it collapsed. Pretty remarkable. And there is still one face left. Maybe someone out there can help finish the investigation.

The 9/11 Memorial "Tear Drop" sit's directly across from NYC, in Bayonne New Jersey, just the other side of the Statue of Liberty, yet we hear nothing about it. This beautiful, 100 ft tall monument was gifted to the people of the United States by the people of Russia in 2006, in memory of all those who lost their lives on that fateful day, September 11, 2001. The breaking in the cracked façade forms the shape of the two towers. The giant suspended tear drop signifies the tears of the entire world that day. Maybe it's something that needs to be known, starting today.

They just rescued 163 kidnapped kids in underground cages with duct tape over their mouths from a human trafficking ring in Florida and it hasn’t been on the news once because it’s 3 white maga Christian dudes that ran it. Take all the time you need with that one
