Notice the Orwellian language, "tax raid," as if all taxation was in some sense illegitimate
How is this possible, since the fundamental rationale for Israel's existence is that it offers a home to any Jew? [The article may have something to say about this, but is paywalled]
All of which goes to show that now would be a good time to release thr Epstein files
The palace has announced that a formal process is underway to strip Prince Andrew of his remaining style, titles, and honours entirely following his association with Jeffrey Epstein. Guess we should just call him Andrew now.

She used an estate agent. There is no suggestion of her being a substandard landlord. The estate agent should have reminded her (like mine did; I'm a landlord) of the need to register. Meanwhile Farage…
Reeves Estate Agent screwed up and apologised to her, end of❗️

But oh no not for BBC with today’s character assassination & scathing critique re Govt Determined to keep a non story alive

Yet they dropped Farage potentially dodging £44K stamp duty like a shot & never reported his OH’s alleged fraud🤷🏼‍♂️

I would add the religious leaders (including the Liubovitsche [sp?] Rebbe) who argued for geocantrism because Answers in Joshua
It will never not be funny to me that mainstream young-earth creationist organizations have to deal with flat-earthers who consider them "liberals" who don't take the Bible seriously and put "secular science" over "God's infallible Word." 😂
If you stamp on shtt you just help spread it. The shtters know this. They are professionals, while we are amateurs
My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.

Last night, the president of the MAGA right’s leading think tank welcomed an open Nazi into his political coalition.

The Nazi in question here, podcaster Nick Fuentes, has described Hitler as “really fucking cool” and said “perfidious Jews” must “be given the death penalty” after “we take power.”
The GOP’s top think tank just defended an open Nazi
Reasonable people can disagree about whether Hitler was good, says the Heritage Foundation.

If they can't obey Matthew 25:35-40, what makes you imagine that they are going to obey a court order?
I write very quickly just by speaking and using VR. The slow bed, however, is tidying it all up (what did I really mean just now when the VR wrote "bed"? That sort of thing)
An emergency decision by U.S. District Judge John McConnell compels the govt to use contingency funds to keep SNAP operating through November. A major setback for TRump’s efforts to curtail spending amid the shutdown and a critical lifeline for the one in eight Americans who rely on the program.

So Congress could pass a law, which would presumably need to have a sufficient majority to override a presidential veto, to empower itself or some other body it may create to invoke the 25th amendment. I stand corrected, but in no way more hopeful
As I understand it, the 25th amendment can only be invoked by the President himself (?) or by the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet, all of whom are his corrupt dependant sycophants. Goedel said the US Constitution contains a deep logical flaw, and as we are now discovering he was right
“Michael Scherer, Missy Ryan, and Ashley Parker of The Atlantic reported today that political appointees Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have moved onto military bases.”
“The establishment of a domestic quick reaction force to quell civil disturbances at a time when there are no civil disturbances that can’t be handled easily by existing law enforcement suggests the administration is expecting those conditions to change…

FWIW, The refusal doesn't even make sense. Marriage is a civil contract between the two parties, and, also given the legal aspects and tax implications, the government. It is not a sacrament, and the moral views of the judges concerned are completely irrelevant

You don't understand! Trump can remember *and* pronounce "Tylenol." Don't confuse the issue; he's confused enough already
