A retired fella trying to make sense of a world seemingly intent on its own self destruction but failing to understand why so many are duped by the deceivers holding centre stage.

They already have been! It's happening right now! Photos of these illegal deletions and redactions are all over the internet!

What sort of perverse Orwellian headline is this? What's next—war is peace? Slavery brings freedom?

Maybe America should try sanity for a change of pace

They’re actually redacting Trump’s name AFTER the release.
🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.

Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.

See for yourself.

I guess we are just going to count on the Mayor of New York saying the right words in tragedy now because nobody expects compassion or decency coming from the White House anymore.

The Government spends an average of £230,000 a year on every single child in care

Of that more than £60,000 is profit that never even goes near a child

The corporations get that, but if you foster a child you get only £10,000.

A sick system that has been twisted for profit

"By 2025, Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time. We estimate that investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%, employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%"

✨A brief visit to York Minster this week and a walk through the snickelway into Precentor's court reveals the might and grandeur of York Minster like no other location - the complementary colours of the buff brick and ochre limestone work their magic. 🪄

✨Deerhurst, Gloucestershire. A kitchen in the nave and a bedroom in the chancel hid within plain sight an Anglo-Saxon chapel built by Earl Odda (a relation to Edward the Confessor). Re-discovered in 1865, it is the most complete surviving Saxon church in England. #thread

If you've never visited St. Wystan's in Repton before - deep below the surface - that first glimpse of the C9th Saxon crypt is quite something.

So sick of this man’s fake outrage and whining at just about everything

Nigel Farage made a song & dance this week about not getting to ask questions at Prime Minister’s Questions - turns out he hasn't put his name forward to ask a question for months.

Trump blaming the victim, as usual. How about “President Putin of Russia can end the war with Ukraine almost immediately if he wants to”? Unlike Trump, some of us do remember how the war started - with Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea & his acts of aggression in the Donbas.
Absolutely any war can always be ended "almost instantly" if you want - for this it is enough to simply capitulate. In fact, Trump directly accuses Ukraine of not capitulating.
