The BBC hate us so much that they only had me on Question Time 38 times and have had Zia Yusuf on 8 times in less than two years, despite the fact that nobody even voted for him. Now that's what I call bias.

Americans are paying more for groceries, gas, and everything in between. So what is Donald Trump focused on? Building new ways for his family to profit from the presidency. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

The United States Treasury: An ATM for the Rich and Powerful
Three of the most unpleasant looking mutants you've ever seen in your life: You wouldn't want a doctor in charge, would you?
JD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
Rick Scott on spending: "Government is the problem. It's not the Iran war." (Who is waging the Iran war?)
FFS we cannot keep doing this… A handful of the richest people hoovering up wealth from everyone else while quite literally making the planet unlivable At what point does someone grow a fucking spine and do something?!
I can’t believe we’re still having a debate about whether there’s a trade off between job creation and measures to green the economy. There isn’t. The evidence was clear years ago - a green economy creates far more jobs than the fossil fuel economy it replaces. Come on Labour, catch up …
Government contracts to require job creation instead of green targets under new rules

He’s actually making a pretty compelling case: If Farage wins, he’ll just end up in another investigation, provoking another by-election. Save the bother & money. Vote Binface!
53,800 of these bad boys are landing in Clacton. Ain’t they beauts? #VoteBinface
Quite impressive to completely undermine your own defence and insult most of your party's elected officials in the same sentence.
It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.
A disturbing and unhinged interview with Rep. Max Miller amid horrifying allegations; Cornyn and Tillis show the art of the cave; the Iran debacle deepens; and much more. Ron's daily bulletin has arrived.
Today in Politics, Bulletin 433. 8/4/26
… Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis both served up lame excuses today as they voted to pass AG nominee Todd Blanche out of the Judiciary Committee on a straight 12-10 party line vote.

Let’s call Trump’s approach to Iran what it is: kindergarten diplomacy | Moustafa Bayoumi
Amid stop-and-start threats and with a divided staff, it’s clear Trump has no idea how to end a war that shouldn’t have begun

welcome to the Losers Backing Winners club, it’s very exclusive
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.
First it was Iran to push the Epstein files off the front page. Then, when the Iran war turned into a fiasco, it was back to the 2020 election and Covid. Every crisis needs a new distraction.
Badenoch is on the front page of the Daily Telegraph impersonating a police officer. Makes a change from impersonating a party leader.
It’s official: @abdulelsayed.bsky.social wins the Democratic Primary for Senate! The People Prevail Over Corporate Profits Once Again!
Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.
That Joshua Bonehill-Paine is a suitable Tory candidate but Grant Shapps and Gavin Barwell have been excluded is quite a good indicator of how many seats the Tories will realistically regain at the next election.
