Where is this pocket video?
I fear I’ve become a little too invested in this saga!

JD Vance said yesterday the Dallas ICE facility shooter was a “violent left-wing extremist.” No evidence backs that up. But then I remembered Vance admitted in 2024 that to help the GOP: "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention...that's what I'm going to do."

Graph showing the exponential increase in Iran's nuclear activity *since* Trump nixed the JCPOA.

This is the ghraph I just referenced.

Amazing. NYT has more confirmation that Trump's decision to bomb Iran was motivated in large part by the way the Israeli strikes were "playing" on Fox News, which drove him to want credit for it

One more sleep until Daniel Hannan Day.

Love this!!
Really missing you guys today! 😢

…absolute hilarity the superb Grainne Maguire can bring to any article.
Plus Jacob, Coco and so many others that made Paper Cuts what it is.
I shall treasure my Paper Cuts Mug and remember the hours of fun we all shared. Thanks for all the puns and memories xx

What can I say other than I am bereft! Can’t believe Paper Cuts is ending.
I shall miss you all, from the ever infectious laugh of Miranda Sawyer, the dulcet tones of Jonn Eledge, the national treasure that is Natasha Devon, the rapier wit of Daniel Foxx and the…

All these people breaking cover on believing that only white people can be English are the ones that raged about ‘political correctness’ & ‘wokeness’ without ever being able to explain what it was. I’ve been dealing with them & their cowardly bigotries for years.

Will never forget the fawning treatment certain journalists in Westminster gave this guy when he was merely privately WhatsApping his vile opinions, rather than publishing them openly for everyone else to see

To be clear, this is what state capture looks like. America, 2025.

Great to see him challenge Trump on Ukraine funding and free speech, and also make a clear point on the Tates.

Incredible scoop here from Hope not Hate:

If Trump had any history of consistency, honesty or keeping his word then you’d have to say that Starmer has played a blinder.

Spend your Saturday evening with me, if you're in the UK. I'm keeping the seat warm for my mate @natashadevon.bsky.social on @lbc.co.uk between 6pm & 9pm. Call me, text me, tell Alexa to "send a comment to LBC" or even Bluesky me, and we'll hopefully have an interesting natter. 6pm sharp UK-time.

Aw, just tuned in and thought I’d mixed up my days when I saw the schedule, lol
Will catch up on New Beginnings!
Hope you’re having a nice time whatever you’re up to!

Brilliant summary of the Whitehouse current state of play. All Americans should be forced to listen. Simon Marks, Global's Washington correspondent, talking to Lewis Goodall. Starts from 02:35:00 here www.globalplayer.com/catchup/lbc/... You may need to create a Global player account to listen.

Superb reporting, truly extraordinary times we’re living in.

February 12, 2025 - In bizarre joint appearance, Trump and Musk ride roughshod over constitutional guardrails Simon's live update from Washington for Lewis Goodall, sitting in for James O'Brien, on the UK's LBC.

My chat earlier today with @lewisgoodall.com on the UK's @lbc.co.uk about Trump & Musk's threats to the foundations of American democracy, and the failure of the White House press corps yesterday to enforce accountability.

Musk ‘saluting’ from a Tesla… the viewer ‘saluting’ back.

News headline from Campaign: "GB News presenter criticises advertisers 'turning their nose up' at broadcaster". The text reads: "Camilla Tominey was speaking at the Advertising Association, IPA and ISBA's LEAD conference". The image shows Tominey speaking, projected onto a video screen at a conference.

Just in: A GB News presenter has lashed out at advertisers who choose not to fund it, and complained that brands are "constantly turning their noses up" at this toxic channel.

Thanks for bringing this piece to my attention. Completely chilling and I agree, everyone need to read it!

IT IS A COUP This is what should be on every front page in 150 point banner headlines. All I have is this Substack but I lay it beneath your feet and pray to a higher power that I'm wrong.

Everyone should read this by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social immediately if not sooner. It’s scary, but we should be scared right now - open.substack.com/pub/broligar...
