The Blue Moon Podcast Live show recording, showing an audience sitting to the left of the photo and the panel sitting on the right. The panel is made up of Chris Higginbottom, Simon Bajkowski, Paul Lake and David Mooney.

With tonight's @bluemoonpodcast.com live show done (online tomorrow), that brings to a close another season... The 16th I've done the podcast for now. If it was a child, it'd be leaving high school or could legally drink wine, beer or cider with a meal in a restaurant. My baby is growing up.

Lord Timpson, "When I was given this job, the system was in an absolute disgrace"

"We need to make sure when people leave prison they aren't addicted to drugs, they have somewhere to live, a job, and are not mentally ill"

"At the moment far too many are leaving prison and not being able to cope"

92 years ago today, the Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld Institute for Sexuality, where the first study of trans people was conducted, and burned all of its contents.

Fitting that today is also the day SCOTUS greenlights the project of the eradication of trans people from society in the US.

Meanwhile over in the US..

Dan Goldman, "Raise your hand if you do not think children with cancer who are American citizens should be deported"

"Looks like it’s all the Democrats and none of the Republicans"

Deporting American citizen children with cancer? 😲

This exchange is so very telling.

Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:

"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

The Daily Mail headline editors seem to have positioned the Kemi Badenoch headline in such a way as to wink wink nod nod suggest a connection between "trans" and "predatory men".

Wink wink nod nod? Sorry, I meant FOGHORN!

Vile people.

Paul Revere 2025: “The British aren’t coming and nor are the Europeans or Canadians….”

Unbelievable

TRUMP 2nd TERM:

And just like that, American exceptionalism—a thing of the past…

Trump is a Panican.

Terry Reintke, "With Trump on one side and Putin on the other side, we have only one way to survive as Europeans, that is to stand strong together"

Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest should concern everyone who believes in free speech.

Trump bemoans a painting of him - but gets a new one from Putin The US president is unhappy with a "distorted" portrait in Colorado, but "touched" by a gift from Russia.

Friends I spoke to said Richer and Davis were inseparable in DC. They did almost everything together. Here's a video Steve Davis posted of Richer performing in a flashmob for Mr. Yogato, the frozen yogurt store Davis ran in DC.

Meet Steve Davis, Elon Musk’s Top Lieutenant Who Oversees DOGE Steve Davis, a longtime Musk loyalist, is effectively the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency. Mr. Musk has likened him to chemotherapy.

Yesterday we published a story on Steve Davis, Musk's fixer at DOGE. Some reporting didn't make it into the story because it was a bit tangential. But it's important in understanding how working for Musk can shift someone's relationships.

So, meet Stephen Richer.

Our future and our security does not rest to the west of us. It’s lies with the rest of Europe.

That Cummings / Farage alliance – how it will pan out

From the new Private Eye, out now.

A photo of the front cover of issue 1645 of Private Eye magazine with the caption "On shelves now." The headline reads "RUSSIA DEMANDS TO KEEP CAPTURED TERRITORY" in bold white text on a red background. The cover features a photograph of Russian President Vladimir Putin sitting at a desk, speaking on the phone with a smirk. A speech bubble adds dialogue, with Putin saying, "Including the White House."

Russia demands to keep captured territory

The new Private Eye is out now

Imagine negotiating with Putin and then coming out and telling everyone what bastards the Canadians are. Imagine having a brain so broken that this sequence of events is even thinkable.

Trump is asked who his favourite Irish person is and names Conor McGregor, who was found by the Irish High Court to have assaulted and raped a woman in December 2018.
