What a weird picture. The old guy's trousers look like they've been photoshopped so he's wearing a sort of apron...?

There is no greater sign of the "decline" of the west than the reality that a large percentage of the US population listened to and selected Donald Trump to lead them.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

A reminder of one of the loveliest pairs of siblings in the dictionary: ‘muscle’ and ‘mouse’. To the Roman imagination, the flexed biceps of a (typically naked) athlete resembled a rodent scuttling under the skin. ‘Musculus’, in Latin, means ‘little mouse’.

Happy Sunday from The Boss. A week til he celebrates his 15 Year Anniversary in Downing St. He was meowing at me today, a rare but surefire sign that snacks must be provided as the before and after pics show.

Home Office: We actually haven't banned all asylum seekers from using taxis for medical appointments but we've produced an image for the radicalised and increasibly overt racist discourse on Elon Musk's X to say we have done so in part & would like to promote the idea that we should

"That would be the honourable thing to do."

Expecting Mandelson to do the honourable thing? Shurely shome mishtake.

Greg Bovino was asked how he felt about his demotion today. "Well, obviously, I'm not happy", he replied. Someone in the crowd shouted back, "So which one are you?"

For people like me, we look at Alex Pretti and think 'that could have been me'.

The US government could summarily execute me on the street for speaking out against them and excuse it by calling me a "domestic terrorist"

So when most European governments call this regime their ally, it is chilling.

So why does the press tiptoe around such an obvious neurological decline? Where is Jake Tapper now, who didn’t hold back on Biden who did show neurological decline but was not bad & dangerous with it. And not nearly as mad either.

This is how she structures it

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

My brother fought in the infantry and lost soldiers in Afghanistan. The press used to report deaths before families had been told and I would check my phone over and over, scared it would ring.

I went to the inquest of one of his killed men. I saw his red-eyed parents, girlfriend and baby daughter.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."
