Sir Jim Ratcliffe spent part of the Β£4bn tax bill he dodged to fund Manchester United.

That is how the UK works you pay tax, the big people don't and they get richer and richer and RICHER.

This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled A Cornell University researcher has been developing an artificial heart for children for more than 20 years. Now, his research is on hold and his lab is shut down.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities β€” including the grant for this device.

The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

Hopefully the decision not to award it to Trump will eat him alive. What is so brilliant is that he can’t rig the vote in his favour and the world gets to see what democracy and looking after all your citizens looks like.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

I believe that the Epstein files reveal the following:

Epstein was a MOSAD asset who created Kompromat material to use as leverage against powerful men.

That material including sex with young boys as well as girls.

He was also a major money laundering conduit.

The men caught up in the scandal

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other statesβ€”and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into anotherβ€”is extremely dangerous.
