Advocates believe that the U.S., Israel, U.K. & Germany are pushing for @KarimKhanQC because he may shut down the ICC investigations into U.S. war crimes in Afghanistan and Israeli war crimes in Palestine. We need to know where this candidate stands on at least these two issues.
New photos obtained exclusively by CBS News reveal for the first time the widespread damage and destruction of buildings and vehicles at multiple U.S. positions across the Middle East, as a result of Iranian missile and drone attacks. The images were sent to CBS News by active service members on condition of anonymity.
"This is major damage to our bases that hasn't been communicated to the American public," one deployed service member said. "We're standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face."
CBS News' @JonahPKaplan has more. https://t.co/dxfBRsgLvM
MAGA will go on supporting Trump and his #IranWar even as they run out of fuel and food and he robs them blind of billions - they've truly drunk the Kool-Aid and need saving from themselves in the mid-terms
BREAKING: US stations are running out of diesel. Stations in North Texas are now posting "OUT" on their diesel signs, and an Orlando, Florida station has blanked its diesel price to 0.00 with the pump dry today.
California stations already began posting "out of diesel" signs on Sunday, with the national average at a record $6.31 a gallon.
BREAKING….
Kevin Reddington, Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer, has federal tax liens of $2.37 million for unpaid taxes on his Marshfield mansion, according to public records on file at the Plymouth County Registry of Deeds.
Reddington bought his now-assessed-at-$2.3-million estate in 2017, and has liens from the IRS dating back to 2018, through 2024.
Reddington is the public face of the free-Lindsay Clancy mob that is so outraged that the holdout juror allegedly owes $12,600 in unpaid rent, and is being evicted by his landlord in Bridgewater.
There is no record that any of the $2.37 million in IRS liens on Reddington’s property have been discharged, i.e., paid off. Reddington did not return calls seeking comment on his apparently unpaid tax debts.
Here are the liens, by year and amount that the IRS claims Reddington owes:
2018: $230,863.76
2019: $360,296.67
2020: $509,661.92
2021: $493,279.32
2022: $84,212.92
2023: $456,483.28
2024: $237,695.39.
Total: $2,372,493.24.
(Actual Registry records below.)
Let’s see if regime-controlled media that have been doxing the holdout juror over $12,600 will pick up this story.
DEVELOPING….

“MAGA’s immigration politics therefore produces an obvious question: if an Indian immigrant’s daughter can become Second Lady, a Slovenian immigrant can become First Lady, a Soviet refugee can become a presidential adviser, and the son of Hong Kong immigrants can speak for the White House, why should ancestry determine how “American” anyone else is?”
@TallTale88 Yes, I've seen the aerial photo. Plenty of trees around to hide him from view and I understand he ran off at full speed so may have been quickly lost from sight. But at least one commenter was complaining about people not helping him while he was running away
Sad end to the Noah Woods case. Nowadays, amidst the hysteria stirred up by the police, media and many commenting on this case, how many men seeing a small child on their own would approach them and try to take them back to their parents? This assumes anyone even saw Noah
"Journalist" based in - Kyiv. Speculating on local politics in Camden, London. These gaslighters are really quite brazen now and he's been deservedly exposed by the reposter. #VoteGreen
That's not how journalism works.
"Speculating" based on a name is being a conspiracy theorist.
There is an excellent local paper (the Camden New Journal) you can consult or you can take the time to contact people locally and find out before you put out factually inaccurate information during an election campaign. I thought that election misinformation was something you cared about.
This is what's happening.
Muhammed Abu Nasser is well-known locally. He ran in the 2026 locals and won for the Greens in Regent's Park. It was an unexpected but impressive result as it hadn't been a Green target but he'd done huge amounts of grassroots work.
But he had to step down as he couldn't be a councillor and a local teacher. This triggered a by-election.
He then backed an independent candidate in the by-election (Mohammad Khan) and there was quite some bad blood as shown by the letters page in the CNJ. Labour won the subsequent council by-election because the left and pro-Gaza vote split between the Greens and Khan. Together they had gotten a combined 889 votes versus 500 for Labour.
He created the CMA with his local supporters because he intended to run as an independent in the Parliamentary by-election. He has instead decided to back the Greens.
The upshot of this is that practically Zack has been backed by a great local campaigner and his supporters and that could mean hundreds or thousands of votes for the Greens that might have gone elsewhere.
You can snear all you want about whether this is important or not, but perhaps you should take a beat to find out stuff like a proper journalist (instead of doing a three second google) before you put out factually incorrect "speculation" during an election campaign.
All my life I could not understand how the Holocaust happened
I knew Hitler & other leading Nazis were evil, but how did millions & millions of ordinary people go along with it?
Now, aged 65, I see how Israelis and so many Western elites support & enable or "ignore" the GENOCIDE in Gaza, and I think I do understand
It is a horrifying, terrifying, profoundly disturbing understanding
We are not going to have this discussion every two months that this guy is anything more than the king of kitsch for midwits.
It’s a variety show for semi-cultured boomers with more money than sense who don’t actually want to “suffer through“ a symphony or opera.
This is likely just availability bias. All the best fairy tale books are non-British (Grimm, Hans Andersen, Collodi etc.) as are the cartoon stories (Peanuts, Tintin, Dr Seuss, Donald Duck) plus Huck Finn, Tom Sawyer, Heidi, Brer Rabbit. These just off the top of my head...
Why are great kids books so overwhelmingly British? Harry Potter, Redwall, The Hobbit, Wind In The Willows, Narnia
and even the books I got into as a tween—Discworld, Bartimaeus, Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, everything by Diana Wynne Jones and Neil Gaiman… what the hell??
Everyone asks "how do we afford PIP?"
Nobody asks "why does disability cost so much?"
A grab rail: £8 at Screwfix. £85 through a mobility company.
Adapted cutlery: £12 to manufacture. £35 in the catalogue.
A shower seat: £15 plastic stool. £90 as a "shower aid."
A postural chair: £200 to build. £800 with "disability" on the label.
Disability costs more because the market CHARGES more. Not because it COSTS more. The word "adapted" on the box adds 300-500% to the price.
PIP exists to cover the "extra cost of disability." But the extra cost is ARTIFICIAL. Created by manufacturers who know you NEED the product and price accordingly.
Fix the price. Sell aids at cost. Remove the markup. Remove the VAT. Remove the glossy catalogue and the sales rep's commission.
The "extra cost of disability" drops by 60-80%. PIP spending falls. Without cutting a single person's support.
Helen Whately has posted thirteen times asking how to cut PIP. She has never once asked why disability products cost five times what they should.
https://t.co/eL53voUhtO disability charter. Fix the price. Not the person.
@DennyTWright Possibly - but are taxpayers willing to fork out even more to pay ministers, or should all the ministers and local government officials have their pay bands reduced?
So the Tories are responsible custodians of public money? How can anyone possibly justify paying a council official more than the Prime Minister? Wandsworth residents are now finding out that people get the government they deserve #FAFO
Tory-led Wandsworth Council has announced a staggering 94% council tax hike, the biggest council tax rise in history.
Already struggling households will be forced to find almost £1,000 extra a year.
But take a look at the eye-watering sums paid to senior council officers last year.
Wandsworth Council paid its then Deputy Chief Executive Ana Popovici £278,643 in total remuneration in 2025/26. That’s more than seven times the UK’s average full-time salary and over £100,000 more than the Prime Minister.
The Tories simply cannot be trusted with taxpayers’ money.
Just waiting for the #LucyLetby guilters to explain how Thirlwall could claim Bennion described baby A's death as a "complete shock" when Bennion said nothing of the sort in giving testimony. Is Thirlwall suffering from False Memory Syndrome?
It is misrepresentation.
In her Thirlwall statement Bennion NEVER used the words "exception" or "absolute shock".
Bennion's relevant testimony is below.⬇️
Justice Thirlwall, we are NOT a gang of backward children on whom tricks may be played.
I trust that this is clear enough? 🧐
We know about AI "hallucinating" information in answers it gives. A genuine question: did Lady Justice Thirlwall use AI for her report, which could explain the growing number of obvious and elementary errors contained in it which #LucyLetby's sharp-eyed supporters are exposing?
@sosprachzara Lucy Letby actually texted "Dad was on the floor" but Thirlwall (apparently by a process of hallucination) wrote that Lucy texted that Dad "collapsed to the floor"
Still not understanding how Thirlwall could lawfully exclude #LucyLetby from taking part in the Inquiry then make multiple findings against her - I can only conclude that Lucy was refused legal aid to challenge her decision. Thirlwall's conduct was blatantly unfair.
The incredible deceit of Lady Justice Thirlwall’s Inquiry Report is laid bare on every page.
Here is Thirlwall pretending not to know that Lucy Letby would have used “on the floor” as a figure of speech to emphasise how upset the father was rather than literally meaning he was physically on the floor. What a fraud Thirlwall is!
Robert Kraft, the US stadium owner who had pro-Palestinian rapper Macklemore removed as Ed Sheeran's opening act, says Sheeran asked him to match his own $2m (£1.5m) donation for "aid in the region".
https://t.co/ExjcS1n43Y
"Stadium owner Robert Kraft says Ed Sheeran asked him to donate $2m in aid after Macklemore backlash"
Note what's missing from this bit of self-serving puffery: whether either Sheeran or Kraft have actually given any money at all and if so, who they gave it to. Pure desperation
@Lorobawa AFAIK it can be - but they would have to find the money to do so - my guess is that Lucy would not be given legal aid to do so because the report does not put her in any worse a position than she's in now
