Brilliant from Zubi. In tight matches like these. You need moments of brilliance like that.

That’s a good weekend. Villa losing and Spurs managing some backbone to claw a draw with City.
Chance to go nine clear next Saturday against Sunderland.
Happy days.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

If you film ICE actions in the USA you need an app that:
1) Uploads to the cloud in real time so the footage gets preserved if your phone is taken
2) Has a "panic button" that auto-sends footage to trusted third parties and/or posts to social media if you haven't hit it in the last x minutes/hours

Trump rambling on, lie after lie. References China not using any wind energy. A “scam they only sell to stupid people” - None of his bombast ever stands up to scrutiny.
Fact checkers will need to be working overtime.

So far the "Board of Peace" is Trump, Orban, Lukaschenko and Netanyahu.
Which if you wrote in a satire would be considered too outlandish and sent back.

This is a kindergarten argument. Either you have standards or you don't, so don't blame others.
If politicians left en masse the media would leave too. By staying politicians are giving XXX credibility it doesn't deserve.

Fine Gael giving the game away by saying X is too important for communicating with the press. X isn't a useful platform for sharing information with the public and hasn't been for a long time. its active users in Ireland are a fraction of a fraction of Facebook, Instagram or TikTok
TDs of all political stripes in Leinster House are in agreement that the generation of non-consensual sexual images is wrong and should not happen, but they differ on how the State, and they as individual politicians, should respond to it.

What hope have we if this is the level of urgency a housing charity demonstrates in bringing a viable property back onto the market.

From the apartment balconies, the grounds of Áras an Uachtaráin are visible through the oak trees. The back garden of the block is the 1,750 acres of the Phoenix Park.
