Put Trump’s criticism of Starmer and other democratic leaders against his consistent syrupy praise for authoritarian, brutal leaders.
Starmer is in good company. Just remind yourself how Trump praises authoritarian antidemocratic leaders in this thread. It’s an eye opener 🧵 1/
Oh.
Quick reminder: Epstein.
This is almost exactly what I said would happen on yesterday’s show. The conflicting & contradictory reasons given for the war, coupled with client journalists & pusillanimous politicians on both sides of the Atlantic, will enable him to claim ‘success’ when nothing remotely successful has happened.
While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...
McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.
I know that pope said we should refrain from hurtful words this lent but honestly who the eff do they think they are? One f**ker has to have ego stroked at all costs and we all pay the price www.lbc.co.uk/videos/2JsSd...
Piers Morgan “Mohammed, do you condemn the Hamas attacks on October the 7th?”
Mohammed Hijab “Yes, I do. Do you condemn Israel killing over 1000 kids?”
Piers Morgan “I believe Israel has a right to defend themselves”
That answer should be on the tombstone of his career.
The grift that keeps on grifting.
If it’s true Reform UK’s Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick told a business audience last night that renewable companies are "screwed" if Reform get in, it tells you everything about their readiness to inflict national self-harm in pursuit of ideological war on climate action.
Tiktok really doesn't like us talking about the Epstein files

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.
They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.
Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
Watch how they vote this week.
Of the many things puzzling me, is the media using the phase hamas / IRGC sources or IRGCregarding attacks in Gaza and Iran but given what we know about CIA operations in the past shouldn’t these also be reported as sources close to the WH or according to …
BBC *finally* report on the dozens of Iranian schoolgirls killed — about 32h later.
Are you joking ?
It saddens me that’s your take on this. When you draw blood for a living you quickly realise all blood is red, all bodies need oxygen and all bones break.
they won't be satisfied until we are all blown to kingdom come
"Rogan, Schulz, and Von now express reservations & regrets, which is fine & merits some praise & encouragement. But for the kid traumatized by watching his dad or abuelita forced to the ground, handcuffed, & whisked away in a van, the pod-bros’ awakenings come too late." — @schaller67.bsky.social
Probably my only claim to fame: Olivia Dean went school with my daughter 🤣
Thought he was banned from the US because of his criminal record? Or doesn't that count anymore?
Whatever you’re paid isn’t enough for throughly researched and reasoned letter, I’m not holding my breath it will make a dent in the history of thinking but history will sadly judge
Post of the day 🏆
Video shows forcibly displaced Palestinians in Gaza breaking their fast during the holy month of Ramadan amid the widespread destruction caused by Israel’s genocidal war on the enclave.
Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.
I have an inkling GB asked AC to help with the election campaign but in all other aspects brilliantly and succinctly written
A truer description of said Scot I have yet to hear thanks for making me chuckle today
The last hour or maybe half hour of today’s programme was a wonderful gift, I was operating on very little sleep, I can’t get out much and was a little begrudging of the swimming & choirs, then along came that beautiful poem by Brian Patten and the world felt right again thank you and Shelagh
