Thomas Massie: The Epstein scandal is “deeper and darker” than anyone imagined.
“It’s bigger than Watergate.”
“It’s not about Joe Biden or Donald Trump.”
“There are degrees of evil here that we’ve never seen at this scale … ”
“Our government was compromised by wealthy, connected billionaires, and by Jeffrey Epstein himself.”
“At the age of 14, these girls that were being sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein were told if they could go find another girl to take their place, then they wouldn’t have to be sexually abused.”
“And some of them took that deal.”
“It’s one thing to be evil to a child.”
“It’s another thing to get a child to do evil.”

It is certainly puzzling that this bitch @SarahHelm1 denied that any Israeli women were raped by Hamas on 7 October.
We know scores of girls were butchered, raped and so mutilated they would not be recognised by their own parents.

Much punchier accusations from Sir Malcolm Rifkind - a former defence and foreign secretary:
"I choose my words very carefully. I think this week Donald Trump has shown himself as a person to be repulsive; as a President of the United States to be a disgrace to his own people as well as to his international responsibilities.
"We all know his actual reasons for this are a grubby attempt to win a few more votes in the midterms by trying to get oil prices down.
"In order to achieve that, he has not only betrayed Ukraine in the middle of a war, fighting for its very existence, but he is also directly - not indirectly - directly responsible for the deaths of many Ukrainians who will not now be protected by the attempts that have been successfully made using intelligence provided indirectly by the United States."

🇮🇹 Giorgia Meloni says Russia’s aggression against Ukraine began in 2014 with Crimea and Donbas, and warns that Ukraine’s fight for freedom is also a fight for Europe’s democracy and security.
Is Meloni right? 🇺🇦🇪🇺
A) Yes 🟢
B) No 🔴

BREAKING: Ukraine has carried out the world’s first medical evacuation of a human via a drone from the battlefield the 30th mechanised brigade of Ukraine managed to save their injured comrade from a minefield.
Just absolutely insane.

These are the people deciding who stays in our country. Our national security depends on the integrity of our judiciary. Removing on corrupt judge is not enough.
We need an independent investigation into the immigration judiciary to establish whether others are abusing their positions, alongside a review of potentially compromised decisions.
We need stronger vetting, regular integrity checks and proper whistleblower protections to ensure misconduct is detected before it puts our country at risk.

Nothing to see here.
“Police have made five arrests at Urban House asylum accommodation in less than a month for alleged rape and child sex assault.”
All totally normal and a part of a modern Britain that should be accepted and celebrated and er … funded by taxpayers.

Here’s what @elonmusk and others keep missing: Russia can end this war by stopping its invasion. Ukraine can’t end it by surrendering without losing its freedom.
Telling Ukrainians to stop defending themselves because fighting costs lives rewards the country killing them.
If your “solution” demands courage from the invaded and nothing from the invader, that’s peak weakness. And you need to stop pretending to be some alpha
Elon Musk becomes deeply moved, and deadly serious, when Bret Baier asks him why he called Sen. Mark Kelly a "Traitor" for pushing to send more US aid and weapons to Ukraine.
Watch every second of his response.
"We should have empathy for the thousands of people dying everyday in the trenches. For no movement in the lines. For the past two years thousands of people have died every week for nothing."
"I take great offense at those who put the appearance of goodness over the reality of it. Those who virtue signal and say we can't give into Russia, but have no solution to stopping thousands of kids dying every day."
"I have contempt for such people and I want to make that clear. Because they're virtue signaling and their lack of a solution means that kids don't have a father. It means parents lost a son. For what? Nothing."

Mosques are apparently breaking charities law to endorse the Green Party.
It's just the latest example of political campaigns pandering to group-based grievances.
This is poisonous and a threat to our democracy. So why won't the Government do anything about it?
There are many brilliant and talented people who are 'on the spectrum', but there may be some disadvantages too
Smart move, Canada! 🇨🇦
Mark Carney confirms Canada is reducing its reliance on Elon Musk’s Starlink.
Because national security shouldn't depend on a billionaire's mood swings. 👏

A lot is now being explained
The BBC has betrayed the British public
Shame on them !
Civil servants were embedded inside the BBC newsroom working on coverage of politically sensitive subjects including immigration, small boats and Covid.
And we are supposed to believe nobody saw an obvious problem with this? We all knew the BBC was a voice box for the government. Now we have the evidence.

The Editorial Board at Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal:
“President Trump’s assistance to Vladimir Putin keeps growing by the day, and in the latest example he stuck a shiv in the back of the legacy of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham.”
“When the election is over there needs to be a bipartisan reckoning for Mr. Trump’s budding alliance with the Kremlin against Ukraine, Europe and American interests.”
________
It’s good to see the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board stand up for Lindsey Graham when his sister Darline is too cowardly to stand up for the brother that raised her. There were a lot of things that I disagreed with Lindsey Graham on, but I totally agreed with his resolute support for Ukraine.
Trump wants you to believe that Ukraine is the cause of our high fuel prices and that Russia is the innocent victim of Ukrainian aggression. That’s the equivalent of blaming you if an armed intruder broke into your house, murdered members of your family, and refuses to stop murdering unless you deeded him your living room.
Maybe someday we’ll know the reason for Trump’s subservience to Vladimir Putin. His waiver of sanctions and diesel fuel deal is another indication that there’s something nefarious behind it.
Trump says his deal with Putin is in America’s national interest. Really? Remember Trump saying about our neighbor Canada, “we don't need their oil and gas?” So, it’s shun our ally Canada and embrace an adversary who wants to destroy western democracy? Try to find a sensible explanation that makes sense of that.
Trump’s embrace of Vladimir Putin is a clear and present danger to America’s national security and national interests. It’s tragic that the Republicans in Congress choose to stay down on their knees in total submission to their king at a time when they should be standing up for the good of the country.

This is exactly why I'm voting Restore.
We run a small family business and it's not easy. The costs keep going up, the taxes keep coming, and sometimes you wonder what you're working so hard for.
Rupert Lowe seems to understand that. He wants to lower taxes and give small businesses a proper chance to grow instead of constantly squeezing them.
We don't want handouts. We just want to work hard, earn a decent living and have something to show for it.
🇬🇧Vote Restore 🇬🇧
I’m fortunate. I’ve been successful in business, I have money, I don’t have to worry about our financial future. I donate my entire MP salary to local charities, to show that I’m in politics for the right reasons.
I’ll be honest. I don’t have to worry about paying the mortgage each month, or having enough money to buy the children what they want for their birthday, or even being able to put food on the table.
I don’t, but I know millions of Brits do. That’s the brutal reality.
Hardworking British men and women should not have to live like that. If you work hard, put the hours in and live honestly?
You should be rewarded for it, properly.
That means lower tax, MUCH lower tax and higher thresholds, but it also means a state that can keep inflation under control so that the cost of living does not outstrip your wage.
Fuel, food shop, clothes, electricity. Everything. It all gets more expensive whilst so many earn the same.
Inflation. All driven up by the decisions of politicians who will never have to live with the consequences of their actions.
Our economy is completely broken. It works for the international corporates, the bureaucrats, the London managers.
It does NOT work for the plumber, the entrepreneur, the farmer, the construction worker, the hairdresser, the nurse, the sole trader, the HGV driver, the police officer.
We must aim to entirely reshape how the economy works so that vast profits made from British workers are not shifted offshore through complex corporate structures whilst working families are bled dry by our corrupt state.
I want family businesses to thrive, entrepreneurs to succeed, risk-takers to flourish. Those who contribute, protect and enhance our society rewarded. I want the shirkers and piss-takers crushed.
That’s what I want. That’s what Restore Britain wants.
I don’t want the parasitic global corporations or our rotten state profiting off the ingenuity and sweat of the British risk-taker. Rotten monopolies that have no respect for the individual will end.
In short - an economy that provides for our people.
There is ONE way out. A Britain that lives within it means. Just as we all have to, our state must do the same. Spend less than it earns. It’s that simple.
That is how we make Britain affordable again, make Britain ambitious again and make Britain work again.
That’s what a Restore Britain Government will deliver.
Release the innate brilliance and tenacity of the British people.
Our entrepreneurial spirit conquered the world before and we can do it again.

🔴🔴📰 Le Wall Street Journal, journal de Rupert Murdoch, pilier de la presse conservatrice américaine, publie un éditorial dévastateur : Donald Trump serait devenu "le meilleur ami de Poutine dans le monde".
🗃️ Les faits
Ce week-end, le comité éditorial du Wall Street Journal (@WSJ), propriété de Rupert Murdoch, le magnat de la presse qui a bâti Fox News et soutenu Trump pendant des années s’en est pris frontalement au président.
Le déclencheur est le fait que Trump vient d’accorder une dérogation aux sanctions visant les grands acheteurs d’énergie russe. Les États-Unis ont prolongé jusqu’en 2027 un régime de faveur pour le géant pétrolier russe @Lukoil et exempté la Hongrie, pour un an, des sanctions sur le pétrole et le gaz russes. S’y ajoute un accord sur l’achat de diesel russe, conclu après des échanges avec Poutine, pour faire baisser les prix à la pompe avant les élections de mi-mandat.
Sa justification officielle ? Cette dérogation serait "dans l’intérêt national des États-Unis".
Le Wall Street Journal juge que c’est l’exact contraire de la vérité. "L’aide de M. Trump à Poutine ne cesse de croître de jour en jour", écrit le comité éditorial, et d’ajouter que le président est désormais "le meilleur ami de M. Poutine dans le monde, après peut-être Xi Jinping".
Le même comité éditorial réclame, une fois l’élection passée, "un examen de conscience bipartisan sur l’alliance naissante de M. Trump avec le Kremlin, contre l’Ukraine, l’Europe et les intérêts américains".
Ce n’est pas un pamphlet de l’opposition démocrate. Ce n’est pas un éditorial du New York Times, que Trump pourrait balayer d’un tweet rageur en parlant de gauche fanatique. C’est le Wall Street Journal, l'organe de la droite des affaires, le quotidien que lisent les patrons et les élus républicains, la propriété de l’homme qui a peut-être le plus fait, en Amérique, pour installer le trumpisme dans les esprits.
Quand ce journal-là écrit que le président sert les intérêts de Moscou, le reproche vient de la maison.
🔴 Comprenons bien ce qui se joue.
Depuis bientôt quatre ans que la Russie a envahi l’Ukraine, la ligne occidentale tenait sur un principe simple : on n’achète pas l’énergie de l’agresseur, on ne finance pas la main qui bombarde. Trump vient de la franchir par calcul, et non par la contrainte : du carburant russe moins cher à la pompe, et tant pis pour Kyiv, pour l’Europe, pour la cohérence de huit décennies d’alliance Atlantique.
Désormais, ses propres soutiens, jusque dans la presse de Murdoch, commencent à poser tout haut la question que mon essai, 'Le Pantin de la Maison Blanche" pose depuis le début : au service de qui ce président travaille-t-il vraiment ?
Il était franchemen temps de se poser cette question.
Un pantin ne choisit pas les fils qui le tiennent. Mais nous, nous pouvons encore regarder qui, à l’autre bout, les actionne.
