Marjorie Taylor Greene has been dissed and ridiculed by the Left for years. Progressives mocked her lies, shredded her conspiracies, exposed her QAnon nonsense, and denounced her cruelty. And through it all she never once feared for her life.

Sheer cruelty on display in the Home Secretary's proposed new asylum laws, which could see refugee families with children suddenly uprooted and deported after spending years rebuilding their lives in Britain. Shameful capitulation to Reform's agenda at the expense of the most vulnerable.

Personal note: London has been home for a very, very long time, but as of today, I am also officially a Brit - that is to say, a British citizen. I feel relieved and I feel grateful - but not, perhaps, in the forelock-tugging way GB News/Starmer expect a new immigrant to be.

In 1993 Michael Jackson wrote a song called “Palestine Don’t cry.”
His producers (Sony Records) would not let him release it.
When was Michael Jackson first accused of child Sex abuse? - 1993.
Who accused him? A failed Zionist dentist Evan Chandler. (On behalf of his son.) 🧐🧐🧐

After highlighting the lack of white people, the shadow justice secretary said it was not about “the colour of your skin or your faith” and he wanted people to live alongside each other. Continue reading...
