Johnny Nash hits #1 today in 1972 with “I Can See Clearly Now” — sometimes considered the first reggae song to do so. (A young Bob Marley was an assistant producer and session player on the album.)

It held the top spot for four weeks.

Over half of the corporations bankrolling Trump’s vanity ballroom are facing (or recently faced) federal investigations into wrongdoing — including violating workers’ rights or misleading consumers.

They also have a combined $279 BILLION in federal contracts.

Follow the money.

Dick Cheney has already been relegated to the also-rans on the Graun obituary page.

Quite rightly, prominence is given to Dianne Ladd.

By using Air BnB you are lining the pockets of this cunt Gebbia. As an aside, Air BnB should be regulated out of existence.

Joe Gebbia, a billionaire, is the co-founder of AirBnB, a presidential appointee and a Tesla board member claiming ISIS waited until the last minute to endorse Mamdani.

This is sick.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies

As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

If Labour are willing to bin their manifesto pledges on tax rises, why not on Brexit?

That would win them far, far more votes than raising taxes ever will. Indeed, tax rises are likely to crater their weak support even further.

What's so magical about Brexit that it must remain untouchable?
