This should be a Five Alarm Fire on every G'ddamned media outlet in the world.

I very rarely post a link to someone else's newsletter...as I have my own. This, however...is a MUST see.

Ex-CIA Whistleblower: "The NSA Audited The 2024 Election, Kamala Harris Won"
Math doesn’t lie—people do. A buried NSA‑authorized audit paved the way for this unelected illegitimate regime.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

I had the great honour of chatting to @sineadeoshea.bsky.social for Image.ie ahead of the release of her extraordinary documentary, Blue Road. Have a gander over on www.image.ie/living/sinea... and more importantly, go see this amazing film and take Sinéad’s advice about reading Edna O’Brien’s work.

And there it is. Scam and grift revealed. Watch who gets rich off this. Interested also to see how legacy media covers this, which has been putrid so far.

Well, the news is well and truly out there, I did indeed do a wee drawing for the RTÉ Guide✨
I am impatiently awaiting its arrival and am very excited to see it in real life.
It was an absolute joy to work on and brought so much Christmas wonder and magic along as the days got shorter. 💛
Magazine cover with an illustration of an old-fashioned Christmas Toy Shop. There are kids leaving the shop with their mum, they've just got new teddies, while a dad holds his kid on his shoulders, looking in to the toys in the window. A dog also looks in on his hind legs. The cover reads RTÉ Guide.

a man who gets an email like this from his own mother should be legally required to reveal it to every woman he ever meets ever ever
The following is the text of the email that Penelope Hegseth sent to her son, Pete Hegseth, on April 30, 2018, as he was in the middle of divorcing his wife, Samantha. One sentence was redacted by The New York Times for privacy reasons. Son, I have tried to keep quiet about your character and behavior, but after listening to the way you made Samantha feel today, I cannot stay silent. And as a woman and your mother I feel I must speak out.. You are an abuser of women — that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth. I am not a saint, far from it.. so don't throw that in my face, but your abuse over the years to women (dishonesty, sleeping around, betrayal, debasing, belittling) needs to be called out. Sam is a good mother and a good person (under the circumstances that you created) and I know deep down you know that. For you to try to label her as "unstable" for your own advantage is despicable and abusive. Is there any sense of decency left in you? She did not ask for or deserve any of what has come to her by your hand. Neither did Meredith. I know you think this is one big competition and that we have taken her side... bunk... we are on the side of good and that is not you. (Go ahead and call me self-righteous, I dont' care) Don't you dare run to her and cry foul that we shared with us... that's what babies do. It's time for someone (I wish it was a strong man) to stand up to your abusive behavior and call it out, especially against women We still love you, but we are broken by your behavior and lack of character. I don't want to write emails like this and never thought I would. If it damages our relationship further, then so be it, but at least I have said my piece. [Redacted] And yes, we are praying for you (and you don't deserve to know how we are praying, so skip the snarky reply) I don't want an answer to this... I don't want to debate with you. You twist and abuse everything I say anyway. But... On behalf of all the women (and I know it's many) you have abused in some way, I say... get some help and take an honest look at yourself... Mom
