Everyone can set aside partisanship, psychologizing, pathologizing, whatever, andβ€”I would hopeβ€”still see that it’s incredibly dangerous for a political leader to be this disconnected from the real conditions in the country.

Whereinβ€”once again, not for the first time, and not for the lastβ€”I talk about how the heinous murder of Charlie Kirk is being exploited by authoritarians in much the same way Nazi party chief propagandist Joseph Goebbels exploited the death of brownshirt Horst Wessel in 1930.

Of all the unpleasant people in right-wing media, the perpetually snarling Laura Ingraham is one of the worst.

Her brother claims she was damaged by an alcoholic father who collected Nazi memorabilia. During the AIDS crisis, she liked to out gay students at Dartmouth in the school newspaper.

Who's sponsoring him? If it's small donations from individuals, then let's see what he has to say. If it's corporate, and he's allied to the Cuomos, then he's probably a spoiler. Follow the money, as Deep Thriat advised.

Don't miss out on other classics like Crosspool Traffic, and No Oven No Pie

This is a viable plan. Why is it always the cartoonists who come up with all the innovations?

1 in 3 doctors were born overseas.

1 in 2 builders were born overseas.

1 in 6 nurses were born overseas.

1 in 4 transport workers were born overseas.

1 in 7 UK business founders were born overseas.

1 in 5 university academics were born overseas.

The UK would be screwed without them.

If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious.

Check out this song parody from last night's show: Mike Johnson Delays House Epstein Vote Until September

Luis Leon, an 82 year old Chilean, was granted asylum in 1987 because he was tortured by the Pinochet regime. He lost his wallet and went to ICE get a replacement green card. ICE took him into custody and deported him to Guatemala.

Why would Pam Bondi pressure the FBI to instruct approximately 1,000 personnel to scour through approximately 100,000 Epstein-related records in order to β€œflag" any records in which Donald Trump was mentioned?

Why on earth would she do that?
Anyone?

Don't laugh. Cleverley might even attract some of the pink Tories back, and would be more open to political advice than Badenoch (who thinks she's so clever, but, as we know, isn't). This would get the Tories moving towards the centre which they need to do if they want to be in government again.

The headline reminds me of challenges when working on the student newspaper - fit 5 of these 7 crazy words into a sentence.

Well this seems like a pretty huge fucking admission of racial profiling that will be ignored by the mainstream media

Bookings start from early July. Lots of work on tracks to and from the course; they've had golf journalists already enjoying a freebie for reviews.

Tom Wharton was described in 1926 as 'The Happiest Man in Sheffield.'

It's probably as well he doesn't know about the current state of his beloved Wednesday.
