Trump gave RFK Jr the Health job to stop him running as an independent (and splitting the anti vote). Trump knows RFK will screw up bigly & then he’ll throw him under the bus - showing strong leadership

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed— Let it be that great strong land of love Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme That any man be crushed by one above. Langston Hughes

I've been messing with Meta AI. I asked it if Trump's assertion that there were Chinese ships all over Greenland's waterways was a lie. After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, this was the response.

Nathaniel Hawthorne's English Journals now have their own dedicated blog. His first month in Liverpool, August 1853, is already there and I'll be expanding it over the next few months nathanielhawthornes.blogspot.com/2023/07/nath... Here's the first entry, by way of introduction

So if MAGA is correct and X is under massive attack from Ukraine. Then there's only one course of action. Musk must immediately cede half of X's assets to Ukraine. And apologize for allowing themselves to be attacked.

I will be sponsoring legislation in Congress to change our national motto from “E pluribus unum” to “Wow! That escalated quickly.”

I just heard that Trump has sacked the coaching staff of the Kansas City Chiefs and appointed himself quarterback #kennedycenter

He who fails to learn the lessons of Animal Farm is doomed. Fullstops. Period. #RiseUp

I've said it before and I'll doubtless have to say it again. Those who fail to learn the lessons of the past are doomed to have Santayana quoted at them

The sweet pretty things are in bed now of course The City Fathers are trying to endorse The reincarnation of Paul Revere's Horse But the town has no need to be nervous Tombstone Blues #BobDylan

A chat I had with the lovely folk at Misadventures in Music about Liverpool's Bohemian underground of the 60s and 70s and the Pool of Life film. urbanistamagazine.uk/exploring-th...

I, for one, am totally behind Trump's commitment to Free Speech. Now all those banned books can return to schools and libraries.

What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? What's so scary 'bout diversity, equality and inclusion?
