How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

As ever, Braverman's stupidity approaches the level of performance art - here complaining about identity politics/equalities policy in one sentence, and then about the (supposedly unjust) underperformance of a particular intersectional ethnic/gender group in the next. archive.ph/0YJjq

joyce is going after elon again

This whole clip he’s talking about how he has a difficult decision on who to endorse in this race since there are so many candidates. Meanwhile, he endorsed Clay Fuller already on Feb 4. Maybe he forgot.

Naturally, Trump is going to try to cash in on this. Every t-shirt, coffee cup, everything with the airport’s name on it means Trump will make money off it.

"No one wakes up being a child rapist and then decides they're not going to do it any more because Jeffrey Epstein is dead," say the family of Virginia Giuffre. "There's still a chance that these people are out there hurting others still" www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/no-o...

Marco Rubio just flew to Budapest to deliver a speech in which he provided a full endorsement of Viktor Orbán in the upcoming Hungarian elections. Here is the letter he signed in 2019 warning about Hungary's "downward democratic trajectory" under Orbán h/t Carrick Ryan

Randy Fine: "They say photo ID is important for agents to have. I think we make that a standard. You have to have photo ID to vote. They don't want agents wearing masks. I think we make standard & say Muslim terrorists running around can't wear masks. Take their logic & jam it down their throats."

Believing in the science 👏👏👏👏

Iranian foreign ministry after US-Iran talks ended: “We are ready to continue these talks as long as it takes, the issues are complicated. “There is no trust between the two parties, we have to continue the negotiations in these conditions.” So didn’t go well then.

Giving Braverman the education brief is quite a choice for Reform. I was on an education commission with her once before she went completely mad and she knew absolutely nothing at all.

NEW: The FBI interview implicating Trump for raping and assaulting a 14 year old took place one day before Epstein was found dead in his jail cell, and emails about the credible accusation came around the time Blanche visited Ghislaine Maxwell in pirson. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The world's richest man is broadcasting eliminationist rhetoric about a tiny, vulnerable minority, and virtually no one is going to treat it as a scandal. It's just normal now.

Can people stop playing Reform's game by referring to his team as a shadow cabinet? For it to be a shadow cabinet, Reform would need to be the largest opposition party. They only have eight MPs. Stop entertaining their nonsense.

Again, we are discussing a problem that does not exist. Voter fraud, if it happens, it is tiny in size. My GOP Father ran the BOE in NJ for 30 years, 100 million plus votes cast, maybe a dozen voter fraud cases in his tenure, he always said it was a boring job. TRUMP LOST & made up the voter fraud

They can't even SPELL success, let alone evaluate whether Brexit has been one.

And there it is … bsky.app/profile/atru...

Can we all get this information correct in our heads: + Labour have not made any cuts to PIP eligibility and, as of now NONE are planned. + Labour also was NEVER looking at cutting the rates of PIP someone can get. In fact, rates are actually increasing with inflation. 1/3

Brave of the Refukkers to hold it in London, where they say it's not safe to walk down the streets. (And they have a point - only last week I was forced to cross the road to avoid what looked like a multi-millionaire tax-avoiding Refukker).

A company awash with foreign money. If only Russia wasn’t so successful in using gullible people, who are only interested in lining their own pockets, we might never have seen ReformUK Ltd as a political entity.

Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.

Not surprising Farage hasn't bothered to announce a health spokesperson - his entire team is populated by politicians who broke the NHS. They've also forgotten about a foreign affairs spokesperson, but I guess they will take their orders straight from Trump's White House anyway.

A thing we've forgotten over the past 18 months but is becoming increasingly clear again: Nigel Farage is quite bad at politics

What a fantastic Solar Halo! A very vivid ring around the Sun. Described in ALT @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social #astronomy @metoffice.gov.uk

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question. Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?

As Nigel Farage makes Robert Jenrick his Shadow Chancellor, here's a quick reminder of the sort of man Reform wants to put in charge of the nation's finances

Wholly in favour of this as long as it also applies to Eton, Westminster etc.

NAMES OF POWERFUL PEOPLE IN EPSTEIN FILES (This is not a complete list)

You've appointed Tories to your top team. Why should people believe your party is any different? Farage: "These were two people who were ministers, but frankly weren't ministers for very long". Suella Braverman was a minister for over 4 years. Robert Jenrick was a minister for almost 5 years.

Reform UK's new 'Shadow Chancellor'

Hell is empty and all the devils are here.

Anti-establishment?

If you loved the last conservative government this looks like the team for you

The only question worth asking at these incredibly flash Reform press conferences that take place every week now, is who is paying for all of this and what do they want in return bsky.app/profile/pete...

This is a pretty bizarre cock-up. "Reform UK-led North Northamptonshire Council has had to halt planning projects after publishing consultation notices in the Northamptonshire Telegraph, which doesn’t circulate locally, instead of the Peterborough Telegraph."

We interrupt tributes to Jesse Jackson to bring you your daily dose of racism. Thanks, Beeb. Respectfully handled.

Nigel Farage makes Robert Jenrick, who he previously said was a "fraud", and told his followers that "this man is not to be trusted", his Shadow Chancellor

We all make our choices and i will never excuse anyone who chooses greed. Ivanka chooses greed. I also see her from a non-emotional POV and she is so incredibly polished and groomed to be a perfect Barbie. God only knows what she's experienced. I would never trade places with her.

I served in multiple authoritarian countries. One common thread that I witnessed first-hand is that when autocrats assault their own citizens, their first response is ALWAYS to claim that the victims were guilty of "attacking" the state. That's exactly what DHS/DOJ does. This is Trump's America.

Farage’s economic agenda is basically a manual in how to crash the economy

When this FBI says “sensitive nature” I hear, “incriminating to the wrong person/people”.🤷‍♂️

And what the fuck would these ruthless criminals know about "sensitive nature"? The left-over MAGAts prove themselves to be increasingly ignorant... such suckers and fools.

Wow.

This is sadly true. Our southern elephant seals, Antarctic fur seals and gentoo penguins have been infected. No mass mortality events evident here and we are providing the very best healthcare our government has to offer, which is mainly exposure to fresh air and ice packs. Flippers (way) up also

This isn't something distant or far away. Super-agent & close Epstein ally, John Brockman had huge influence. His 'rockstar' writers, scientists and academics dominated our book pages & broadsheets. We need nothing less than a total revisionist history of the last 20 years. 2/

This should be interesting. Nigel Farage said Liz Truss’s budget was “the best Conservative Budget since 1986”. Robert Jenrick wanted the Tories to expel Liz Truss as a result of it.

BREAKING NEWS!- PM Aurora Maccormicki replaces PM Tuxley II amid Bird Flu crisis. “Women should be in charge during crisis. I only won the tariff war because I delegated my Bluesky and [TrustMe Social] media account to a female staffer who threatened America with total annihilation.” -Tuxley II

Woody Harrelson, "It seems like we're going backwards" "I wish there was a way to get rid of that son of a b*tch and get in a great president" "It doesn't seem like that's going to happen"

😬Not the best look for Reform’s Gorton & Denton candidate Matt Goodwin White supremacist far right activist says “you've appeared on our podcasts, had dinner with us, had us write for your Substack, and sought our advice on how to write your social media posts” Tad awkward😬

We are the laughing stock of the world.
