Trump says "drill baby, drill".
He won't be around to see the destruction, but in 50 years or so, large parts of the planet will be uninhabitable and terrible conflicts will result.
My son turns 21 on Monday, I just hope he has time to eke some pleasure out of life.
That's how bleak I feel rn.

Grotesque, as a descriptive term for an event, has surely never been more appropriately used than for this 'peace board' announcement.

I'm pleased to welcome Andrew Rosindell to Reform. With any luck most people will have forgotten he was a Tory MP, because he didn't come into Parliament for nearly two years while he was being investigated for sexual assault and rape.

‘We few, we happy few, we band of brothers……meh!’
These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all.
They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America.
They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

When people called the takeover 'sportswashing,' there was an angry backlash from Newcastle fans and a promise to be 'critical friend' of Saudi. Four years on, just after the owner had more people executed than in any other year of his reign, the Supporters Trust is recruiting extras for Saudi Air.

remember when Scottie Scheffler got arrested in Louisville before the PGA Championship for an incident that was strikingly similar to Renee Good and yet everyone was pretty much in agreement that the cop was an overzealous baby?

I am delighted to welcome Nadhim Zahawi to Reform UK. He will bring useful experience, such as claiming £6,000 to heat his stables and avoiding £3.7m tax by hiding £27m offshore and threatening to sue anyone who asked about it.

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

While Zelenskyy is meeting with trump... he had to maintain his composure with the lies spread by the felon about how russia is a good country. It is painful to watch how a true war hero has to swallow his words and maintain his composure.
