Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: β€œIt makes me sick that she is claiming to be a victim. This is the same woman that grabbed my arm and forced me into a room to be raped by Jeffrey. She had this evil smirk on her face. And she enjoyed it.”

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Rasmus Jarlov on Twitter writes: "There is nothing to celebrate. Moving from average tariffs of less than 2% on trade between the USA and Europe to 15% under today’s deal will inevitably lead to inflation. Almost everything will become more expensive in both Europe and the USA, and we will all be worse off. The economic illiteracy in the White House is doing serious damage to the West."

Stylish Skunk replies: "I have a feeling you have 0 idea what you're talking about.

In fact I know you do."

Rasmus Jarlov responds: "Of course. I am former minister of trade in Denmark and you are an anonymous Twitter profile. You probably know a lot more than me. For sure."

National disgrace for 36 years of England's water privatisation.

Reform UK mayor Andrea Jenkyns says she doesn’t believe in climate change 'Reform are showing themselves to be the political voice of the vested interests of big oil and corporate profit.'

You might think this answer entirely fails to engage with the question.
Particularly when you learn the framework referred to aims to "contribute to put a country back on a sustainable external public debt trajectory, within the context of an IMF program".

Environment Agency insider alleges β€˜cover-up’ over sewage sludge on farmland Regulator and government accused of colluding with water industry to dump potentially toxic waste without oversight

The more we discover, the worse it gets. Now we learn the water companies wrote the guidance ensuring sewage sludge is not tested for the vast majority of contaminants before being spread on farmland. They gave themselves a free licence to dump hazardous waste. 🧡

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.

This is inexcusable. She should resign.
