Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Today it has two.

NN: Dems say you won't swear in Grijalva bc you don't want her vote on Epstein
JOHNSON: No. It's scheduling
NN: But there have been Rs sworn in during pro forma sessions
MJ: Only reason was bc they flew in their family
NN: So if she flies in her family you'd do it?
MJ: Again, it's a distraction
Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

I agree, do you?
Britain has some of the best wind, tide and wave energy potential in the whole of Europe. We could be an energy powerhouse exporting electricity across the continent. A boom for Britain.
But Farage the Tories and their big oil backers want to keep us shackled to foreign oil.
The headline should read: Since 2020, Brits could be banned from the EU due to Brexit removing our status, freedoms, and opportunities as European citizens. Now it will be harder to cheat the 90/180 rule.
Also another example of the UK tabloids hating it when the EU takes 'control' of its borders
And they wonder why we hate them..

I recall a question being asked once of whether it was possible that Kemi Badenoch as Trade Secretary did not know the details of mobility discussions with India, and well, evidence like this suggests it was very likely (some of those working around her confirmed this also)

This isn't a "left wing" judge β Trump appointed her.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

This is a lie.
There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. Iβve been making them for years.
But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Coverage of Jenrick today basically amounts to sane-washing. He didn't criticise judges. He claimed there was a conspiracy by certain judges, who he had discovered and could number, to undermine British law and create open borders.
