America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

YES!!

Meanwhile, back in the real world . . .

Bagram Air Base was built by the Soviet Union in the 1950s.

What an idiot.

Reform, with 0.7% of all MPs, featured in 25% of BBC's recent 10pm news bulletins Astonishingly, a party with 18 times as many MPs as Reform has received one-third less coverage on BBC News at 10.

This does not look like “impartiality”. It looks like propaganda.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Simon Harris and his family have faced credible death threats in recent days.

This morning Elon Musk piles in by falsely claiming Harris is stopping McGregor from running for president.

Starting to think we should just throw a potato at a random crowd and elect whoever it hits

Name our Storms

The Met Office is currently looking for people to suggest up to 5 names for storms...

It would be great if thousands all suggested the same 5 names (in alphabetical order as that's how storm names appear):
BigOil, BP, Equinor, Exxon, Shell.

More outrageous Trump cover ups:

Now he’s hiding that American taxpayers are footing the bill to modernize the plane he received as a bribe.

Roads, houses and water: Ireland's biggest ever infrastructure plan to be announced today Budget 2026 will see additional public spending and taxation measures delivered, Cabinet will be told.

€200 billion over 10 years is a welcome boost for Ireland but how much of this will be wasted on consultants, advisors, junkets and expenses, before an eventual grilling in front of an Oireachtas Committee, when half the money goes missing? #SpeirGorm

On Monday the UK and 27 other countries signed a sharply critical letter condemning the Israeli military’s killing of hundreds of Palestinians seeking food in recent weeks and calling for an immediate end to the conflict.

What words remain for a government that goes to court to insist it be allowed to continue selling weapons to a state committing genocide, then sends a letter of complaint when those weapons are used?

Irish Independent headline: 'Somebody has to speak for the Irish people’ – Michael Flatley yet to decide whether he will launch presidential campaign Picture of Flatley standing outside a mansion.

And nothing says voice of the Irish more than a multi-millionaire American standing outside a mansion.
"Somebody has to speak for the Irish people" just screams dog whistle to me.

Colbert has the highest ratings of any late night host.

"Financial reasons" my ass. This is political.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

"Train is the new private jet." Dua Lipa continues to promote taking the train over flying, boarding a Eurostar to London at Gare du Nord. This is climate-conscious messaging done right. Posted by lejeuneengage on IG.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

Watch this to the end.

Israeli strike kills at least 10 children queueing for medical treatment in Gaza Children among at least 15 killed in attack that NGO says was ‘blatant violation of international humanitarian law’

My latest cartoon.

master negotiator just now figuring this out

After all the conservative whining about "participation trophies," Governor Abbott is asking for a Kids Died Under My Mismanagement participation trophy.

“No collusion”
“I won the election”
“She wasn’t my type”
“I never slept with her”
“It was a perfect phone call”
“We didn’t commit any fraud”
“I never paid her any hush money”
“There are no classified records here”

“There is no Epstein client list”

Morning 👋

How are we all today?

I see the billionaire of online sales is in super discount mode. (That wedding wasn't cheap)

Kneecap is not the story.
Genocide in Gaza is.
