A Reform government would force schools to sing the National Anthem and if they don't oblige parents will be encouraged to report them to the authorities. Yeah that's not like really scary and authoritarian schoolsweek.co.uk/reform-there...

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 15h agoBASH: Gas prices Labor Day weekend are the highest on record. Isn't it possible gas prices could go up even more? CHRIS WRIGHT: I don't want to have an opinion on that BASH: As the energy secretary, shouldn't you have an opinion? WRIGHT: If I had to guess, they are more likely to go down than up
Two-thirds of NYC’s income growth since the pandemic went to the top 1%. The richest 0.001% — about 50 families — saw their average income soar from $315 million in 2019 to nearly $600 million a year. It’s time to build a city that works for everyone.
With the traitor, everything is black or white. There is no thinking, discussion, debating. Just a snap judgement which has proven to be wrong 95% of the time. #8647

Texas is really in play, and Republicans know it. GOP candidates are already putting distance between themselves and Trump, while Democrats have a real shot at a Senate seat Texas hasn’t given them since 1988. If turnout surges, the GOP could lose a lot more than one race. #Midterms2026 #USPolitics
