Meanwhile, here in small town Bedfordshire, someone set a car on fire with fireworks and the comments in the town Facebook group are saying it's not fireworks, it's because it's an electric car. 2026 may have peaked already.

"While this style of interview with no challenge and feeding lines may be the norm for Fox News, I’ve never seen anything comparable on a UK broadcaster. If Ofcom chooses not to investigate, it has abandoned impartiality and broadcasters no longer need to comply."

Great exclusive here. Trump’s open arms for Russian puppets.
EXCLUSIVE: A year after Tenet Media was busted for funneling Russian money to MAGA pundits like Benny Johnson, a Trump administration effort involving State and the FBI has welcomed Tenet's founders back into the US. Read @willsommer.bsky.social's latest:
Trump Admin Scores Visa for Founder of Russian Propaganda Outlet
Tenet Media’s Lauren Chen is back—even though the illegal-influence and money-laundering investigation remains open.

Here's Trump giving more credence to the fear that Israel plans to remove Palestinians from Gaza and ship them to Somaliland, a self-declared country in the Horn of Africa that no UN member state recognizes – except for Israel.
Trump: "I heard that number today -- half of Gaza would leave. I've always said it. I said if they were given the opportunity to live in a better climate, they would move. We're helping the people of Gaza a lot. So is Israel, by the way."

In fact any food that doesn't say where the chicken came from, or in what animal welfare scheme it was produced, will be Chlorine-washed.
This is economics 101. It's cheaper to produce chicken that is then washed with Chlorine, than to produce chicken that doesnt need to be washed with Chlorine.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

It is understandable why any Christian would want to help all mankind.
However, I'm confused about why a phony Christian like Rafael Edward (Ted) Cruz would claim he wants to serve Israel.
Must be for the same reason he serves Trump: personal gain. Not exactly the teaching of Christ, is it!
