Dear Democrats. Please remember the lesson from Hungary earlier this year. Orbán was not brought down because of the fascism, or the racism or the stupidity or his general unpleasantness. He got thumped in the election because of the undeniable CORRUPTION. Repeat it. Every day.

The City Football Group owns twelve teams worldwide. Given the systemic fraud they’ve perpetrated in the EPL with Manchester City I hope the other leagues have started investigations.

Let’s hope Trump’s “grass guy” is better at grass than his “pool guy” is at pools and his “War guy” is at wars.

2/ With respect to the invitation for Harp to ride in the catering truck shouldn’t be a surprise in itself. The question isn’t why he left Karoline Leavitt behind - that should be obvious. The real question is what would he have chosen to do if Melania were in Türkiye.

1/ Nobody should be surprised by Natalie Harp’s obsession with Trump. There are heaps of examples of cults attracting people to the flame, and more often than not the cult leader picks the most attractive & willing as his shadow. In Harp’s case Trump picked the one that mostly resembles Ivanka.

In ten or fifteen years time how many cases are going to be reported of children being abused using the ICE shock gloves? There is absolutely no chance they’ll be identifiable and licensed.

@countbinface.bsky.social How funny would it be if politicians in camera shot when the “new” MP for Clacton speaks in parliament, wore a symbol of ridicule that almost 30% of Farage’s loyal followers voted for a bin? Laughter is his cryptonite. Hopefully that’s not against parliamentary rules.

Bezos and some buddies needing to hide cash from the tax man has bought a stake in Liverpool FC. I’m am disgusted by FSG’s actions. I will not buy a single piece of merchandise or any game tickets while my club is being used to launder tech bro’s money. #liverpoolfc #epl

I was planning on holidaying in Hawaii next year but now that the Islamic Republic of Japan is launching 111 missiles at the US, I don’t know if it’s safe right now. Any insight?

#fifa #worldcup2026 How soon before Trump tries to deport Belogun for being a birthright citizen? How soon before Trump makes an executive order making it illegal for any non-white, non-American, non-evangelical, non-male to be Manager of the USMNT?

To the WC hosts, all knocked out: Canada - thank you. Great courage & attitude. Enhanced reputation. Mexico - gracias. Super energy and skill, and warm welcomes. Enhanced reputation. US - thank you host cities. You were let down by your corruption & bigotry. Reputation Deservedly bad.

#fifa #wc2026 I’m still waiting to hear confirmation that Infantino has reversed Bellingham’s suspension for the next game. Does Prince William need to call first? Of course, I’m joking. It’s more likely Infantino will announce that Courtois, KDB & Trossard are suspended for one game.

Now that FIFA has realised they can introduce extra commercial breaks in the middle of matches, they’re bound to be taken up by leagues everywhere. Commentators will have to reset their idioms to include “It was a game of four quarters”

What is the likelihood that Iran will turn up late for at least one of their games given they are being forced to travel through immigration on the morning of every game? Infantino has allowed Trump to turn this into the White Christian Cup. #fifa #worldcup2026 #worldcup

The next fortnight of football will NOT result in a country winning the World Cup. Because of the restrictions FIFA is allowing America to impose, this will be the inaugural White Christian Nations Cup. #fifa #worldcup2026 #worldcup

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk Why does the media refer to him as “Tommy Robinson the far right activist” which makes him sound like a deep-thinking rebel? He is more accurately “Yaxley-Lennon the convicted hooligan” which is accurate and correctly labels him as a violent anarchist.

Arsenal FC won’t be able to reach the next level of being a repeat winner while Arteta is in charge. He whines and always blames something else, often the ref when his team loses. Truly great managers congratulate the opposition and start working in the positives for next game.

@news.abc.net.au Following Ben Gvir’s disgusting behaviour over the past 24 hours, I haven’t seen any condemnation from the Australian Jewish leaders. Given the focus following Bondi, wouldn’t it be best for Jews to distance themselves from Gvir’s actions. How else can we reduce hatred.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Following Ben Gvir’s disgusting behaviour over the last 24 hours, I’ve heard foreign ministers condem his actions but I can’t see anything from Jewish leaders outside of Israel. This is the sort of behaviour that’s easy to call out as not representing Jews?

Surely this is fake. Trump told Ukraine they should give US companies their rare earths because having US contractors would guarantee no Russian attacks.

#auspol Can somebody explain something to me about The Nationals? They claim to represent farmers and rural communities - the type that are either in flood or drought - yet they oppose net zero and want to continue with delaying renewable energy roll-out. Is that not oxymoronic? What am I missing?

#auspol Does anybody know what happened to the Muslim politician who was expelled from the Labour Party when she wanted to recognise Palestine. I can’t remember her name, but she struck me as a future voice of reasonable youth. Did she stand, did she retain her seat, etc.?

Supporters of Tariffs are successfully talking about US job losses from off-shoring and blaming the other country for “stealing” US jobs. Since the ‘80’s US firms send production overseas to lower costs. US consumers CHOOSE between paying more for a product supporting US jobs, or buying cheaper.

It’s the same for every western democracy since the 80’s. It’s also the same in every town when people complain that the “big guys” are forcing the closure of local, friendly businesses. Nope - consumers CHOOSE lower price almost every time. Capitalism working?!

Compare & Contrast: When the UK Prime Minister tanked the economy, she was replaced within the life cycle of a lettuce. When POTUS imposes a far worse situation he cannot be removed as long as he’s surrounded by loyal idiots. USA is not a strong democracy.

There is no space for racism in the EU. No one should be denied a job, home, or opportunity because of their race or ethnic background. On International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination and every day, the EU stands united against racism, for a #UnionOfEquality.

Mark Carney elected next prime minister of Canada. Having been the head of the Central Bank of Canada followed by the English Central Bank (through a crisis), I look forward to seeing how he deals with getting lectured by a fraudulent, tax dodging criminal about how tariffs work.

Breaking: When asked about the colorful exchange in the cabinet meeting between Elon Musk and several cabinet secretaries, Mike Johnston has said they were clearly paid democratic stooges and he is urging the president to cease further cabinet meetings.

Peace Plan for Ukraine: 1 - Ukraine do deal with China. 50% rare earths if Russia departs 2013 Ukraine & N.Korea quits. 2 - UK, France, Germany, Finland, Poland, Sweden, Baltics, Turkey & Italy form military force to be deployed in Ukraine asap. 3 - Europe build non-US military industry.

Trump seems to believe that just having a contract for US to take Ukraine’s minerals will mean Putin stops attacking apartment blocks, hospitals and schools. How STUPID is the Felon?

Given who Trump is, my guess is that Zelenskyy’s people told Trump ahead of the meeting that Ukraine was not going to give the US its minerals without a reliable military guarantee. Knowing the day was going to end without a deal, Trump and JD decided to maul Zelenskyy in full public view.

Can somebody help me understand MTG? I get that she’s full of hate, cruelty and overflowing with stupidity, but can somebody explain to me, how is it better for the federal government to spend money on unemployment costs for (former) federal employees rather than wages?

Any deal that Zelenskyy agrees to in terms of paying USA for support should be absolutely CAPPED at the actual $$$ donated MINUS the portion that went straight back to US military suppliers. He should insist that other countries have exactly the same financial deal. And immediate NATO membership!

We shouldn’t be surprised that Trump doesn’t want Zelenskyy in the negotiations with Putin. Trump would be embarrassed to have a world leader see his total acquiescence and to witness the criminal dealings.

Reporters discussing the difference between Trump 1 and Felon 47 need to remember that in his first term he was nominating competent people believing he could force them to be loyal. This time he’s nominating loyalists that have a mission. Competence is not a criterion. It’s learning.
