Shut the F up you petty twat. Dolly has died.
Trump has backed himself into a corner and is flailing.
🚨 Bradford Reform councillor arrested following pub brawl. In 2017, Bradford Council leader and retired police officer Stephen Place wrote: “Respect for the rule of law has diminished...to a new unprecedented low.” Including among Reform councillors, it seems.
Sheffield councillor Robert Hanson left Reform after he saw the rot behind the facade. Now he's urging others not to be taken in. Reform is haemorrhaging councillors at a rate of 1 every 3 days since May. We're tracking them all: https://bestforbritain.org/reform-uk-defections-resignations-tracker/
I remember watching 9-5 with my nana & she gave me a babycham with lemonade in a fancy glass. And from that day onwards, I loved Dolly. The world lost GOODNESS today, a woman who genuinely cared about others, because she herself understood what poverty was like. Goodnight Dolly ❤️
Unless it's changed to Lake Dolly.
Trump threatened to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America.” He is so ridiculous. Canada knows these performative name changes won’t last. The second Trump is out of office, the names he’s tried to force on everything will be changed right back.
Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.
I’ll always remember Dolly Parton for the fact that she donated $1 million in 2020 to the research that led to Moderna’s COVID vaccine, as well as millions more for childhood vaccine and cancer research. She was an immensely talented, kind, and giving person.
This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.

I don't think you can trust Jeffries any more. This stinks of Trump
NEW: Hakeem Jeffries met with Kushner recently to discuss how democrats could work with the administration when we take the house back. We shouldn’t work with fascists, and I’d appreciate a leader who felt the same. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/23/u...

'Reform UK is losing a councillor every three days on average as critics claim Nigel Farage ’s party would “struggle to run a bath”' "Tracker shows Reform loses newly-elected councillor every three days as Farage troubles mount" www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
Dishonesty expert (and former computer hacker) Kemi Badenough says 'defectors who left her party for Nigel Farage's Reform are "some of the most dishonest people" she has met'. But despite that, it seems she still would not welcome them back to the Tories.
THIS CRÏMINAL IS VISITING NEW YORK‼️ ⛔ Far-rïght Israëli minister #ItamarBen-Gvïr was protested at every stop during his visit to #NewYork: "Get the f*** out of New York! You'll be remembered like a Nazi, and Palestïne will be free."
The Enemy is Billionaires and the Politicians who Help them with Tax Breaks and Loans Immigrants who Follow Immigration Process and work hard and get paid less doing work Citizens don't want are Not a Threat!
There is a group of people that believe they are put out by immigrants. Immigrants have never done anything to infringe on them. These people have been told that they have been left out b/c of immigrants taking from them. It’s been drilled into them to make them hate & want them gone.
Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.
