The rest of Britain isn’t “Westminster”, John. There are actual people there. Some of them even struggle to pay their bills. Parochial nationalism laid bare.

Sturgeon and Freeman dumped nearly 3,000 mostly untested elderly patients into care homes in the first weeks of the pandemic, then watched the death rate explode while they prioritised hospital beds and defended the policy. Sturgeon had already been Health Minister during earlier C. difficile outbreaks driven by the same practice of discharging untested patients into care homes and knew the risk to frail, congregate elderly populations. Sturgeon's government chose hospital capacity first anyway, delayed mandatory testing until 21 April, and later spun the higher Scottish care-home death share.The result was catastrophic: 47% of Scotland’s COVID-attributed deaths occurred in care homes, against ~30% in England.

Trump blame Kyiv for the rise in energy prices while ignoring the real culprit, Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz He’s convinced himself that Ukraine’s refineries attacks are, in part, meant to undermine GOP’s midterm chances—and, by extension, Trump theatlantic.com/national-sec…

400 trees ?!?
Anybody who takes the trouble to find out what is happening in Trump's legal case about his plans to redevelop a golf course in DC can only reach the conclusion that America has a scoundrel as its leader. A female judge & her family are facing death threats after Trump called her a 'crazed lunatic.' Her sin, was to insist on the following of correct legal procedure in the case, especially after the government had chopped down 400 healthy trees without legal authority. How can anyone support a leader capable of such vile & selfish acts?

After the US government cut off funds to USAID we’ve seen a mass shift to the right in South America. It feels like the organized violent left in Europe, with their Islamic allies, are sensing that their end is near, so they’re burning cities as a final act of douchebaggery.

This is how it’s done. Don’t be cowed by this angry bully, remember that journalists are dying in other parts of the world to get their stories. Weather the insult, stay persistent. It’s one of the most critical times to get at the truth.
Reporter: How was waiving those sanctions on Russia to secure the release of Hubbard not giving something to Russia? Trump: Are you a stupid person? Who do you work for? Reporter: ABC News. Trump: You're a stupid person. Your network is the worst. Reporter: To the point of the question, Mr. President…

Fire Blanche's ass.
BREAKING: Todd Blanche is reportedly concerned his refusal to follow laws, subpoenas, and court orders to release the Epstein Files next year will make Congress revoke his salary and defund his staff, courts fine him thousands daily, and Trump write him IOUs he'll never pay.

The detail behind Professor Alf Baird’s claim that Scotland’s GDP is understated by £150 billion is really quite remarkable. His argument goes like this: “if we assume that Scotland’s GDP should be double the current number, then we can calculate that it would be twice as big”

I'd like to remind Trump administration that after Iran war started, Ukraine deployed experts and technology to the Middle East to help Gulf states defend themselves against Iranian drones and protect US bases in the region, while Russia provided targeting information to Iran.

Remember: TR*MP STARTED THIS WAR.
Iran just told its entire military: the next war with the US and Israel is happening—and this time, political targets and infrastructure are fair game. Translation: no more shadow boxing. No more "limited strikes." Tehran thinks round two is inevitable and they're done pretending otherwise. And right on cue, Trump has reportedly flipped toward backing a preemptive strike in the last few hours. So both sides are now prepping for a war they both think is coming. Trump wants to hit first. Iran says it'll hit back everywhere. And nobody's backing down. Buckle up.

So no Separation of Powers as the founders designed. How very authoritarian.
AG Todd Blanche: They accuse me of not being independent from the White House. I'm not. I work for Trump.

Weidel: "Prolonging the war and shooting drones into the hinterland of Russia, destroying refineries, houses, and buildings near Moscow, is a huge provocation." Host: "It's defending itself." Weidel: "No, it's not." Host: "Every night, drones and ballistic missiles rain down on Ukraine..." Weidel: "This strategy is very risky, and we've been criticizing it. We want to end this war. It doesn't help if a country [Ukraine] launches drone attacks against a country [Russia] that has nuclear weapons. It doesn't make sense, it's very risky and very stupid. We need to end this, and we need to actually put pressure on Ukrainian president to have the willingness to end the dying and stop this very risky strategy for all of Europe."🔚 Folks, here is Weidel's imaginary reality: black is white, the victim is to blame for the crime against them, and defending your home against a bloody, illegal invasion that murders children and razes towns is "stupid," while letting Russia occupy you and carry out a country-wide Bucha massacre is probably smart. And defending yourself is risky! Risky, did you hear that? Well, no shit, just standing there and catching Russian ballistics with your face is risky, too. So we may as well take the risk and, hear me out, fight back? ​Please don't vote for this evil Russian appendix in Germany!
