Has there ever been a weaker Speaker of the House than Mike Johnson, who just picks up the phone each day, says β€˜yes sir’ a bunch of times, then hangs up and does what he’s told? Which is do nothing and lie constantly.

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar?

I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. πŸ€”

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

I have nine of his films in my collection, and I haven't been collecting his work particularly. Hell Drivers is probably my favourite Stanley Baker film.

It's down to those Americans who couldn't bring themselves to vote for a smart black woman over an old white man with a criminal past, and predilection for sexual abuse.

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

Those who make exaggerated claims about how Christian they are should start reflecting right now. Masturbatin' Mike should have started years ago.

Pope Leo calls for β€˜deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S. β€œMany people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Trump does need Jesus. Without the gullible American Christians who actually believe he believes in Jesus, he’d be powerless.

Corrupt scumbag murderer Greg Abbott is showing more concern over New York City finally electing a good person to be their Mayor than he ever did for everyone who was murdered in Uvalde, Texas. Evil asshole.

We don't have them here in Canada. When we return to the UK, as we do frequently, we always get exited to see them.

For an administration that claims to be pro-Christian, insulting the head of the Catholic Church really isn't a good look. Bullying and demeaning immigrants is much worse, of course, and in no way Christian.

Has there ever been a more pointless exercise than using a gas-powered blower to blow leaves from your lawn? It's a complete waste of resources. Leave the damn leaves where they fall, the bugs and the critters that tend your garden will love you for it.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

From the outside, it doesn't look very inclusive. To elect a white man, a sexual predator and convicted felon, over a smart black woman who has no such stain on their character, kind of tells its own story.

As I said elsewhere, when Infantino gifts Trump that award, I'll never watch another FIFA match in my life. I love my football, but this is simply too awful to bear.
