@BFriedmanDC on X: Tulsi is a disaster for Dems. First she sided w/GOP on Syrian and Iraqi refugees. Now she refuses to back Hillary. x.com/seanspicer/staโฆ
18 Jun 2016
This is nearly a decade old and exactly why we should question and criticize Democrats who won't endorse their own nominees.
When Jeffries, Schumer and others refuse to endorse Zohran Mamdani, it's a red flag. It is predictive. A flashing indicator. They represent a danger and shouldn't be trusted.

Peter Mandelson sacked as US ambassador by Keir Starmer over emails to Jeffrey Epstein
The Foreign Office says he was fired
Lord Mandelson was wholly unsuited to being US ambassador. Appalling judgement by UK Prime Minister to have appointed him.
His position as a Peer in House of Lords should now be looked at.

Starmer truly has horrible judgment of people. Literally the worst at any level of any organisation Iโve ever seen. Feels extremely disqualifying for a PM.

I just don't understand what a patient is supposed to take away from Streeting's NHS league tables
If I'm e.g. a resident in Barnsley trying to decide where to get a hip replacement, what on earth can I learn from the fact that Barnsley FT has a score of 2.31? What does that mean!?

Iโm often asked โdo you have a useful child friendly explainer on Palestine?โ My response generally is to tell it to your kids straight. Make sure they grow up knowing what Isr*el is. Make sure the history and the truth is widely known. Donโt let it ever be forgotten what they have done.

Despite justified cynicism with politicians, when you have a genuinely progressive - though far from perfect - government, it is possible for things to get better.

This ๐ฌ๐ง government is a shitty, budget mashup of all the governments of the past 20yrs. Seems to be taking inspiration from each one - but the worst aspect of each (war, league tables, austerity, racist immigration, low growthโฆ). Like theyโre trying to remind us why we need smthg radically different.

Starmerโs strategy of being a bad copy of Cameron-Osborne mixed with some half arsed Blair lite and chasing Farage to the right is being met with total voter disinterest. Who knew? They really have no clue. Labour need to replace Mr Bean and double down on social justice or weโre all doomed.

Escalation of Gaza offensive will 'only bring more bloodshed'
says UK PM
UK prime minister Keir Starmer on Friday said Israel's decision to further escalate its offensive in Gaza is wrong and urged the Israeli government to reconsider.

Not a single new reservoir built in England for 30 years. โ

The absolute barefaced audacity of Israel to say that a Palestinian state would be rewarding terrorism. They might want to look back at the roots of Israel and who exactly brought terrorism to the region (and were rewarded for it).
