Omg you guys, it's true. Ilhan Omar came here on a student visa, then quit school and just started working. Total immigration fraud, blatant.
Oh wait, that wasn't Ilhan, that was Elon.

BREAKING: Andy Burnham has clarified that Labour could never form a coalition with the Greens, due to their opposition to genocide and reluctance to quietly send arms to Israel while pretending to stand up to them

[Rt Hon. Will || Portfolio for Sarcasm (parody) @colder_sarcasm]

No - because normal people don’t wish a female candidate was their daughter so they can see her naked in the bath you fucking weirdo.

Apparently, Putin knows — or at least is convinced — that Donald Trump's party will lose these elections.

And that means time is running out. Even Putin cannot predict what will happen after the elections. That is why he is in such a hurry.

We do not know exactly what the dictator told Trump over the phone.

But I am becoming increasingly convinced that this is not about diesel, gasoline prices, or even approval ratings.

I have another theory: it was a direct threat.

How else can we explain why, after speaking with Putin, Trump begins effectively carrying out the Kremlin's wishes, imposing his own version of “sanctions” against Ukraine?

Russia bombs Ukrainian cities every single day, murders civilians, and destroys energy infrastructure. Meanwhile, the American president pressures Ukraine to stop striking Russian oil refineries and eases sanctions on Russian diesel.

Whose foreign policy is this, anyway — that of the United States or the Russian Federation?

I see no convincing explanation for such behavior other than the possibility of direct Kremlin influence over the American president.

And after the arrest in Germany of a former head of German intelligence, who also held a senior position in the Interior Ministry, on suspicion of cooperating with a foreign intelligence service, very little seems surprising anymore.

Of course, suspicion is not proof of guilt.

But who could have imagined just a few years ago that we would seriously be discussing the possibility that the President of the United States makes decisions under direct pressure from the Kremlin?

And the main question is no longer what Putin said to Trump.

The real question is: What exactly is Trump afraid Putin might tell him next time?

Yesterday @andyburnham stood at the dispatch box and said that anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism. What an out and out Israel owned cunt he is, a UK PM using his position to lie and spread Israeli propaganda. I gave the man a chance, but have to say, he is a complete disaster.

You can buy books from Ian Brady, Charles Bronson, and the Kray twins in the UK, but you can't buy books from Sally Rooney because she opposes Israel's genocide.

She should've done something respectable like serial killing and her books would be fine.

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

Another disgusting revelation from ITV’s undercover investigation into Reform UK.

Reform councillor Chris Whelan was secretly recorded making a deeply disturbing sexual remark about a female Reform candidate, saying that if she were his daughter, he would give her a bath and “wash you properly this time”.

Whelan has since resigned from Reform.

The racism, the misogyny, the endless scandals. Farage’s claims about improved vetting look increasingly ridiculous.

[Stephen aka FU trump @slenarz]

Our Department of Defense head pete hegshit settled a $50,000 lawsuit from Jane Doe of California for sexual assault. He was found to be intoxicated more than a dozen times doing Fox News weekend. He barely made the 6:00 morning time because he was hungover. He's been married three times. He fathered a child with a woman while he was married to another woman. And the fucking Republicans accepted him as head of Department of Defense. He was removed from 2 vet organizations which he bankrupted.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨BREAKING: President Trump has backed out of his October 16 deposition in his own $10 BILLION defamation lawsuit against the BBC, citing “matters of national importance,” prompting the broadcaster to ask a federal judge to compel his testimony. Think about that.

[The Shallow State @OurShallowState]

Anyone who reads any transcript of Trump's recent rally speeches, or pays attention to the clown show unraveling under his desperate and delusional direction, would clearly conclude that the biggest story on Earth, THIS day and EVERY day, is that the President of the United States is seriously unwell and allowed to continue in office - unfit, untethered, and unchecked.
It's absolutely unbelievable.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

FUN FACT: Rep. Ilhan Omar has been a citizen longer than Melania trump AND Elon Musk.

I stand with Rep. Ilhan Omar.

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

The President of the United States is actively now supporting Russia, a country that is helping Iran in its war with us. The Russian/Iranian connection is driving up costs for Americans and costing the lives of our bravest.

NEVER AGAIN TELL ME THAT REPUBLICANS ARE THE PARTY OF PATRIOTISM .

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

Me and Ilhan Omar are far apart policy wise. I’m pro life, she’s pro abortion. I’m pro 2A, she’s pro gun control. And on and on.

But can someone tell me how pretending to get ready to deport Ilhan Omar is going to bring gas down under $2, make health insurance freaking affordable, make a family’s weekly grocery bill make sense, and stop sending our beloved military off to fight for another fucking foreign war???

People are so sick and tired of the bullshit.

When you dumb mf’ers at the WH actually release the Epstein files and lock up the pedophiles and rapists you all hang out with, then we will start paying attention.

Until then 🖕.

Kimberly Guilfoyle is now threatening to take the Trump family down with a burn book called the Devil wears MAGA after he asked her to resign as Ambassador to Greece. She says she knows all of their secrets. Í had a feeling this was coming & can’t wait.

[Tom Hoefling @TomHoefling]

Trump is going whole hog against Zelensky. His "Truth Social" account is awash in lies hatched long ago in the Kremlin.

As powerful as the US is, I'll still place my bets on the Ukrainians to win. They have a moral weight to their efforts that Trump can't begin to emulate.

Drone strikes on Russian data centers have disrupted Yandex services across Central Asia, exposing the region’s reliance on Russian digital infrastructure and raising questions about the resilience of cross-border technology services.

Royal Mail has been told that it could save £650m by only delivering things 3 days a week.

Did you know that the taxpayer could save £4,000m a year if Royal Mail had never been privatised, or if it was renationalised, and deliver 5 days a week.

I'd go with that.

If one man has the power to switch off the Internet for an entire country that is currently at war defending itself, then that man has entirely too much power.

If SpaceX can suddenly change how Starlink works in Ukraine without warning, what makes other Starlink customers and Tesla owners confident that their products will always work as expected?
