So putting his money where his mouth is and as a shining act of patriotism Sean Duffy will be donating all the wages he earned during the shutdown to charity.

How can Trump claim he suffered significant financial & reputational damage from a BBC Panorama programme that wasnโ€™t shown in the US Despite getting elected over 1 yr ago. How can this clip cause more reputational harm than the video Trump shared himself, where heโ€™s shitting on the American people?

Does Britain value culture any more? Ask the striking workers at the British Library | Zadie Smith The dispute over pay at this great national institution gets to the heart of our misplaced priorities, says novelist Zadie Smith

Well said Zadie Smith.
This is what happens when we are governed by autocrats.
How sad this is to read, how much sadder it is that itโ€™s happening.

Donโ€™t scrap the Windfall Tax

They had Trumps entire first term, the 4 years out of government and one year of this term. During the entirety of Trumpโ€™s first term the American people were told repeatedly that the Trump replacement for Obama care was โ€˜Two Weeksโ€™ away. Yet after all these โ€˜yearsโ€™ people are meant to believe this?

You need to be a special kind of person to believe any of his statements. His remarks are often inaccurate and he appears to make up stories on the cuff. He even believes that he is perceived to be intelligent and thatโ€™s another level of dumb arrogance altogether!

How many new hospitals did his party promise? All the Tories have left in their locker now that the ReFUKers have stolen their only electioneering pledges of stopping the boats and leaving the ECHR is to do the media rounds and shout โ€˜weโ€™re hypocritesโ€™ at anyone still listening!

This is the Hollywood equivalent of the Guardian & FT making syndication deals with OpenAI.

Itโ€™s leveraging status for short term profit from the worst companies on the planet & to the detriment of the rest of the sector, in this case every young actor who comes after them.

They were celebrating the eight wars that Trump ended, or the
American Revolutionary War where the Continental Army "took over the airports" from the British in 1770.

The way our media tells stories about people can either build bridges or feed racism.
