Child: I know your name. Mamdani.

Obama: What’s his first name?

Child: Mayor.

Of course that maybe fake Melania….😉

So, the war with Iran is so bad they’ve made Melania mention Epstein. It’s the circle of life.

was that Melania speech one of Iran’s demands

I wrote and posted this to Instagram a couple of days ago and it became my most-read poem ever. I’m honored I get to feel big feelings alongside you all. I’m posting it here too and want to use this space more consistently. Hello friends ❤️

This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee.
What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18

She's a great cartoonist

Marco Rubio declared that under the Constitution being born in the USA does not make you a citizen unless your parents are citizens.

Marco Rubio's parents were Cuban immigrants who were NOT citizens at the time of his birth.

Do you think Marco will now self-deport?

I will wear cream too, though it might show any champagne I spill as I work my way through my magnum.

Today I heard about an interesting book on a public radio station show, then when I got home I went to the website for my local public library and requested it. I'll have it tomorrow for free.

This is precious. We must protect this.

Robert Jenrick calling Palm Sunday 'Psalm Sunday' reminds us once again that dim witted rage baiting populists never know the slightest thing about what they are purporting to defend.

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey:

"Tax exiles like Isabel Oakeshott and washed up old footballers who mock ordinary people who stay in the UK and pay our taxes... As we protect them, it's only right for tax exiles to start paying taxes to fund our armed forces, just like the rest of us".

So clever!

I was at a dinner, well over twenty years ago, with several MPs. As Mandelson walked past our table one of them said: ‘He’s the worst, totally untrustworthy.’

What made Starmer think differently?

Do not let them win

Macron’s allies say it plainly: Brexit is why Starmer is weak with Trump.

Inside the EU, you have leverage, a market of 460m and a trade bazooka.

Outside it, you urge calm while others decide.

Brexit left Britain weak and Trump knows it.

I keep trying to word a post to describe the presidential address to the press which is ongoing, and nothing quite covers it. It’s a ramble, of a babble of a frayed meander through the disordered thoughts of a strange, strange man. Who happens to be president.

Unhinged

The president of Cuba is 65. Trump is 79

Trump: "It's gonna make a lot of money"

Peru could start with snakes.

The Disturbing Return Of The Prodigal Son-In-Law Jared Kushner is so back, and what he's up to should concern us all.

In 2021, Jared Kushner claimed he was leaving politics. Instead, armed with billions in funding from Middle East autocrats, he is brokering “peace” deals for Trump that double as real estate ventures and positioning himself at the center of Trump's media ambitions. None of it is an accident.

Stephen Flynn, "Nathan Gill, who was Reform UK's leader in Wales"

"Do you know where he is now? He's in jail"

"Because he was taking bribes from Putin"

"At a time when Europe is at war with Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Reform UK party leader in Wales was betraying each and every one of us"

Tweet from a user sarcastically calling Trump the “President of the United States of America,” with an American flag emoji. Below is a TV screenshot showing Donald Trump next to a graphic titled “Trump’s Attacks on Women Reporters,” listing several dates with insults he used, including “Quiet, piggy,” “Insubordinate,” “Ugly,” “Are you stupid?,” “Stupid and nasty,” and “Obnoxious and terrible.”

We need to teach our young men about misogyny so they don't think it's okay to become like him.
