Audio of my address to the @CampaignMWHC rally in Ennis. This is what our 'health service' did to my late father, Johnny.

He thought all he had to do was file suit and they'd crumble, like others have done when faced with his wrath. He may have picked the wrong fight here.

The final seconds of this report by @SOCurraighin on the new bears at Wild Ireland in Donegal on @rtenews are pure genius, magic, joy, fun, you name it 😂
As Miranda's mother would say, such fun 🎉
A tremendous start for the new White House @PressSec! She commanded the room and effectively reminded the American people of all the great work President Trump and his Administration has done thus far.
Kimberley Guilfoyle must be having a not-so-quiet smirk given that the person who announced her exit the other day, as her first major task, has now been canned herself.
Headspinning!
After having to apologise for his disgusting on-air obituary of Ann Widdecombe I don't think Adam Boulton's credibility is in a great place. He might need to keep the lawyers on standby though.
The White House has asked @kimguilfoyle to resign as Ambassador to Greece. This is the correct thing to do but it must be uncomfortable for the Trumps because she is vicious. She is likely to burn them to the ground with all she must know!
I know the man had issues/needs but I'm glad there seems to be no push to destroy the tiger. A girl & guy entered the tiger enclosure in Dublin Zoo in 2006. Áine Lawlor asked the zoo director next morning if the animal would be put down. Listeners were unhappy with the question!

Hearing the horrific news of the livestreaming of an execution in the US, my mind goes to the murder of Ken Bigley by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's group in Iraq on 7 October 2004.
If the monstrous @realDonaldTrump & @SecWar Pete Hegseth do this, they will become Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
Who has 'missed opportunity' on their #Budget2026 bingo card opposition responses today?!!!
Seriously, what is the point of the Budget speech tomorrow when the RTE News political correspondent basically gives us a fairly comprehensive rundown of measures the evening before?

My latest article on Senator William Alden Smith, who chaired the U.S. Titanic Inquiry, has been published in Ireland’s Own magazine this week. A very interesting life story.

A death row inmate in the United States has survived two attempts to execute her by lethal injection.
Christa Pike’s execution, in the state of Tennessee, was halted and she was taken to hospital when she was still alive after two injections.
Now 50-years-old, Pike was sentenced to death in 1996 aged 18 for murdering her 19-year-old schoolmate Colleen Slemmer.
The Tennessee Department of Correction said it followed every step of the state’s lawful, established execution protocol.
Lawyers and human rights experts had heavily opposed Christa’s execution, given her age at the time of sentencing. Just an hour before her scheduled death, the US Supreme Court ruled that the execution was allowed to take place.
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has now halted the one remaining execution for the rest of the year.

Yours truly was beamed across the entire Australian nation on Tuesday night (Oz time) contributing to the story of the wonderful and cheeky Tony Armstrong. Still pinching myself!

Do we know if it was a random attack or he was targeted because the attacker recognised him and decided to have a go? Either way is awful and the latter would be very sinister because it takes us along the road of the fatal attacks we've seen on UK MPs.
