Jurgen Klopp won the Premier League against the era of this cheating City team, who fraudulently won 6 out of the 7 years. That is the Greatest achievement in Premier League history. 🐐

Late votes tonight but one good update: the Early Act (a breast cancer bill I lead w/Sen. Crapo and with House Lead Debbie Wasserman Schultz) passed through the Senate tonight and is headed to the House! It helps young women who are most at risk of getting breast cancer.

He’s good.
🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham takes time to compose himself over the loss of his dad, Roy "On the day my dad died, the Scottish FM said I'd be the last PM of the United Kingdom... I relay it because I want you to know how it made me feel... "Utterly determined to prove him wrong"

James Shinny Davenport built a public profile talking about mental health, compassion and breaking stigma. Now he’s telling people he disagrees with to “DROP DEAD” while calling them “mentally ill weaklings”. Quite the journey.

FAIR POINT! …also, note how you never hear Farage and co talk about water, energy, homes, transport, cost of living crisis Just one-trick ‘stop the boat’ ponies.
🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham issues a diagnosis of Britain "The British right talk about taking back control, NEVER let them forget that they are the ones that gave it away in the first place"

All week we're celebrating 15 years of Erin Burnett OutFront! Here's another #OutFront throwback: Erin was on the ground reporting from Ukraine when Russian troops invaded in 2021. Here’s the story of her 21-hour journey to get out of Ukraine.

Was always going to get a bit tasty up against Jeremy Hunt… Excuse my error of saying millions and not BILLIONS But my point stands… Tory critics on the sidelines want us to forget the wrecking ball they took to this country We won’t.

Just watched the speech in full. One of the best, and most powerfully delivered, by a British politician in a very long time. If he can deliver on his passion and promises, Burnham could be a transformative Prime Minister. But it’s a big ‘if’ …
I will build the Britain my dad wanted to see.

Ministers have refused to confirm Labour’s commitment to the triple lock – which guarantees that pensions will rise in line with inflation, 2.5% or average earnings, whichever is the largest increase – will be in that manifesto. That has fuelled speculation that a change in the way pensions are increased to a less generous system could be used to partly fund the cost of free social care for adults in England. The prime minister will address the Labour Party Conference today in his speech. #news #politics

“I don’t know the ins and outs” says @Nigel_Farage. Let us tell you then. You-led Durham council are run by incompetent @ReformDurham and @darrengrimes. Since being appointed to lead, they have lost you 16 councillors. Currently you are 2 away from losing the council to No Overall Control. There are accusations of bullying, dismissing mental health issues, parties in the council building and your council changed the structure of the way councillor accountability works to make it less transparent and no longer independent. Council Tax wasn’t frozen despite you promising it during the local elections. Oh and you have a circa £44 million gap in your council’s finances. That help?
Reform leader Nigel Farage responds to a Sky News investigation into chaos and resignations at the party's flagship northern council in Durham. Watch the full investigation by Sky's @CathyNewman at the link in the comments. @RobPowellNews | 📺 Sky 501

.@SECupp says Trump is stepping on one of the GOP’s best talking points by using taxpayer dollars to fund political ads propping himself up: “The only thing they can do is hope to scare people about the socialist and communist Democrats. It's really hard to do that when Trump is out there doing communist stuff…”

Oh wow! 😮 There’s desperation and then there’s Nigel Farage going into bat for a convicted kidnapper. Farage can’t even buy a win at the moment.
How is it that Danny Tommo sits in a cell while five suspected terrorists are out on bail? Is this two-tier Britain, or am I missing something?

10 Hills I’ll die on: - Big corporations shouldn’t be able to buy elections - A good education shouldn’t just be for rich kids - Getting sick shouldn’t mean going broke - We should invest in child care like we do our roads and libraries - Billionaires should pay their fair share so everyone else gets a fair shot - Homes are for people, not corporations - Abortion is health care - Americans should not have to subsidize the cost of data centers - No one should be able to use public office to make themselves richer - We need to put put power back in the hands of working people
