Bush was a terrible president but simply impossible to imagine a Republican saying this about Pelosi or anyone else today.

Which one is more English?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

A bit more race-baiting by the Daily Express. My cousin's kids have a Bangladeshi father, and they would confuse this journalist by only being able to speak their native languages: Welsh and English.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social In a survey in the 1990s, they asked a group of people what level of income a 'super-rate' of tax should start at. The follow-up question was, "What level of income do you expect to earn in your career?" And it was invariably lower.

Travelled up to the Smoke today. It really is becoming a cycling city, which fills me with joy. When I first arrived in London and rode a bike, it was considered an oddball activity. It was too hot to use the tube today, so I took the bus. Next time, I'll just use a Lime Bike.

EPIC response.

Same here.

Tell me again how women are too emotional to hold office... 🙄

The majority of British people: "it was a fuck-up, can we please just move forward and repair as much damage as possible." A tiny group of very wealthy people and the British media: "Any deviation from Brexit is heresy."

Maybe I'm being unfair, but a trade deal in which the US raises tariffs on the UK and the UK lowers tariffs... ... feels a bit... one-sided

Quick reminder that those who fought in WW2 also built the welfare state, including the NHS. I think they’d be fairly unhappy with Reform’s plans.

In the 1980s Graydon Carter, then editor of Spy (a magazine that skewered NYC high society), pulled a stunt where they sent tiny cheques to the city’s rich to see who would cash them: $1.11, 64 cents, 13 cents. Two people, out of 58, cashed them all. You already know who one of them is.

Nighty night.

Who better to comment on bringing up children than someone who doesn't know how many he has?

Meanwhile in Lithuania on the same day. RIP American soldiers.

Elect a clown, get a circus

okay so he genuinely thinks that fentanyl smugglers have to pay tariffs lmfao

It's funny, because it's true.

I can only think this is all part of the genius' master plan, to explode rockets in mid air, accidentally fire and rehire federal workers, tank a successful social media platform after paying way over the odds for it, and then oversee the plummeting of an electric car firm..its all so bloody clever

Reform UK Ltd suspends Rupert Lowe after claims that he bullied women in the party. Nigel Farage says that there is no place for that kind of behaviour in the party.

Christ, listening to Trump, it is quite clear that: a) he doesn't have a f*cking clue how tariffs work, and b) none of his sycophants are prepared to explain to him how tariffs work c) he is probably a moron

For all of the people suggesting that we should schmooze Donald Trump by rolling out the King Of England, don't forget that King Charles is also King Of Canada. That should go down REALLY well in Ottawa.

Truly bizarre: the Vice President of the USA is campaigning for the far-right party in Germany.....

There was a time that imposing a tax on certain imported goods would result in Americans rising up against their rulers. These days the rulers just have to lie to them about what a tariff is and they cheer the tax they're forced to pay.
