Vladimir Putin appears to have concluded that he cannot win the war in Ukraine on the battlefield. His strategy now is to grind Ukraine down. How scandalous that Donald Trump has become his best weapon economist.com/leaders/2026/1…

Hats off to Chuck 😄👍
100 years ago today, Chuck Berry was born. Guitarist and songwriter who shaped rock and roll out of country, blues and R&B. Story songs, a double-stop guitar style, and a body of work that became the template.

I settled 8 WARS, am close to ending or settling 2 more, got all of the Israeli hostages back, including the final 28, both living and dead, had hundreds of hostages, from countries all over the World, released and sent back home, won a war in Venezuela, and captured the violent dictator who so viciously ran that country, and stopped the number one state sponsor of terror, the Islamic Republic of Iran, from obtaining a Nuclear Weapon — AND MUCH MORE! Yet, with all of that I, or the United States of America, did not get the Noble Peace Prize. WOW! ( TS: Oct 10 2026, 8:04 AM ET )​​​​​​​​‍‌​​‌​​‍‌‍​​‌​‌​‍‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍​‌‌‍​​‌‍

Can’t wait to read the award-winning explorer’s account of the awe-inspiring landscape, native tribes and unique customs discovered in the teeming flatlands south of the Liffey that they call Rathmines 👍✌️
1970s & 80s Ireland is the setting for my new memoir - This Boy's Voice - as I negotiate Boarding School, Boot Boys, Broadcasting, Babies, Relationships & Rathmines! A story of failure & frolics on the journey home to me. Now available to pre-order. I hope you enjoy. Thank you.

The tactile touch of vinyl is always welcome. This new LP from @miriamingram arrived with me this week. (Also on digital medias). And a Dublin gig on Oct4th! Horslips aficionados will know that Eamon @carrtogram co-wrote “The Hanging Willow” with Miriam - included on the record.
A gorgeous rehearsal yesterday in @Arad_Studio (Thank you Les!). Can't wait for the gig THIS Sunday, the 4th of October in @BelloBarDublin with support from LEGION OF ONE.

Déjà vu .. current events at #Drumcree and #GarvaghyRoad are depressing. Some years after reporting on the stand-offs of 1998 and 1999, I wrote a verse play, Deirdre Unforgiven, to get what I’d witnessed out of my system. Today, peace hangs in the balance.

But @FAIreland say Irish team will wear black armbands facing a team representing the state that has killed more than 20,000 children, and caused the highest number of child amputees in history, in the genocide they continue to inflict on ppl of Gaza.👇Black armbands so kick off?
🇮🇱🇵🇸 They smash medical equipment inside Gaza hospitals. They film themselves doing it. Then they post it for amusement. Israeli soldiers, in their own footage.

A contact sheet pic of the Orange Order attempting, unsuccessfully, to march on Garvaghy Road in 1999. Essentially, there’s no need for it. Their display stokes tension, causes fear and is potentially dangerous. Parades Commission? #CeremonialSword

We tell teenagers, “Don’t bring a knife to a fight,” This geezer in the bowler hat brought a sword. Just going for a peaceful stroll… no provocation. 🙄
