Trump is stacking the government with loyalists.

As acting Attorney General, Todd Blanche already gave Trump and his family a lifetime pass to commit tax crimes.

Imagine what he'll do with the full job.

Where the hell is Congress?

Union leaders have been quick to brand Nigel Farage an "enemy of trade unions" and claimed he would launch "worse attacks on workers' rights than Thatcher" https://t.co/hVyrDSsTLo

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

Farage has the audacity to vote consistently against the rights of workers and then claim he’s open to trade unions.

The Labour movement needs to take the threat from this snake oil salesman seriously.

We don’t need polls. Look at election results last month…

The UK’s Business Risk Guidance for Palestine and Israel has been updated 📣

British citizens and businesses should not engage in economic or financial activities in Israeli settlements. They are illegal under international law and undermine prospects for peace.

Today I am mostly hiding from journalists by going to Scotland and dressing up like someone who actually works for a living.

As demands on defence rise, we’re asking more of our personnel.

Our third inflation-busting pay award recognises their dedication.

Through our record investment, Labour is delivering better pay, better housing and better conditions for our Armed Forces 🇬🇧

Julie Ann Osborne was stabbed over 40 times by UDA man Andy Robinson. Thankfully there is no video of it. Do I think every Protestant young man is responsible? No, only months ago he was walking among you #belfast #kinardavenue

My father was stabbed 33 times & had his throat cut from ear to ear by this loyalist UFF murder. Do I blame the entire loyalist community, of course I don’t! Evil is Evil it doesn’t recognise race,creed or colour!!

The Tate Brothers - the fascists' favourite grooming gang are now openly serving Putin. According to Farage Andrew Tate is an 'important voice' for men. 40% of those arrested in the Farage riots in 2024 had been previously reported for domestic abuse.

The far-right are a threat to women and children, and almost all their leaders are traitors serving Putin.

@Im_K1992 I find it crazy that you can lose a civil rape case and still roam the streets freely.

Why do Yanks think it’s only the English upset?
- 80+ games not sold out
- Forced a Middle Eastern team to sleep outside the nation they’re based in
- Banned Africa’s top ref
- Banned multiple African teams fans
- Banned a Caribbean teams fans
But yeah it’s only the English.

🇷🇺⚠️Every Russian general who ordered strikes on civilians is now a marked man.

Retired US Army @general_ben, in an exclusive interview, says the GUR has already started the clock — and there is nowhere to hide.

"Every officer in the chain of command — for the rest of his life — is going to have to be checking under his car. Because the GUR is going to hunt them down."

Russia can't protect everything. And neither can its generals.

NEW: Fascinating analysis by Bloomberg @economics on what rolling back Brexit would mean for the UK economy

Our economists’ central estimate is that the long-term hit to the British economy caused by leaving the EU is 2.5% of GDP

That’s lower than some previous estimates but still about £30 billion in forgone annual tax revenue

But they find closer relations with the EU would only deliver a limited long-term recovery

Rejoining the customs union would add 0.4 percentage points to GDP

A Swiss-style arrangement would add 0.8 percentage points

Joining the single market for goods (rejected by the EU) would add 1.2 percentage points

So as Labour debates its EU policy, this analysis suggests closer ties would provide a boost but hardly a silver bullet

WOW! @MaryLTrump tells @AmericanXchgPod that Trump's father (her grandfather) had Alzheimer's disease around the same age as Donald Trump is now, but he was much healthier than Donald is.

"Yeah, my grandfather had Alzheimer's starting when he was probably around the same age. And he had it for a long time and it was a gradual thing. Then it became very obvious very quickly in his early eighties that, you know, all was not well. The difference is that Donald is an infinitely less healthy person. My grandfather was a pretty healthy human. He didn't have any vices to speak of. He was a physically strong guy, never sick a day in his life. Donald, on the other hand, is, you know, it's a terrible diet. He drinks 12 Diet Cokes today. He doesn't sleep at night. Yeah. So I guess he's making up for it. And who knows what else is going on with him? We can only guess because clearly the White House constantly lies to us."
