Bryce Mitchell reacts to Sean Strickland being banned from the UFC White House event:
"I'm not surprised at all. We ought to be able to criticize our own nation, let alone a foreign nation.
[Israel] is the only nation you're not allowed to criticize. Something's gonna change, because evil empires don't last forever."

Keir Starmer appears absolutely fuming at Nigel Farage's response to Henry Nowak's murder
In PMQs, he tells the Reform leader: "I'm really shocked that he pretends to have respect for Henry's family and then acts in this way. They're a grieving family...
"They have lost their son in the most appalling circumstances. They make a simple plea of us as human beings to please not exploit that. That is their plea to us."
He says his focus has been on the lessons to be learned "so we can deliver justice", while Farage's response "has been to appeal for rage"
"That's his response to a father who's lost his son and asked for that not to happen. Exploiting this tragedy to create grievance and division would be wrong in any circumstances, but to do it when the family are expressly saying please don't is unforgivable. It shows exactly who he is."
@CBADgg Dude you're one of the only Poketubers I see speak up on current affairs and things like this and you always do it with so much class. Your just a great dude.
@Twintendo_ Nah name drop the other person. The good thing about these things is highlighting everyones toxic behaviour and holding them accountable. Name them
@thefleeee@pokemonaoharu_2 Sheesh man that's horrible! Especially since how much effort you've gone through to make content accessible for so many people. Sorry to hear you've experienced that man
🇺🇸TRUMP: “We need 2 billion dollars a day to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.”
🇺🇸US Senator: “Hey, wasn't the Strait of Hormuz already open before the war? Then why did we wage the war? You created a crisis out of thin air for no reason.”
Hey @BBCNews , got a story for you!
About 11 reform new councillors have stepped down or been expelled already!
It will cost a lot to elect new ones. How about running that as a story, just for a smidgen of impartiality?
They're trying to strip Zack Polanski's Jewish identity away.
The way Trevor Phillips spoke to him was disgusting.
If a Jewish politician who wasn't left-wing or pro-Palestinian had been spoken to like this, it would be a national scandal.
