I love being an immigrant (not an "expat") in France, and wish all immigrants were welcomed wherever they go.
No longer have horses (too old to take on any more) but happy with my cats and the ageing biker I married.

Still, amid the legal technicalities and blustering X posts, something quietly important happened: The judiciary stood up to the Trump administration’s abuse of power—and the administration backed down.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

We're finding out, that Epstein had ties to the Mossad, the Mossad had ties to the CIA, the CIA had ties to the mob, the mob has ties to the military and now we're finding out that they're all tied together with the United States government. Now we know why everything on this planet is all fucked up

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.
Good.
Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.
She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.
It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

#politicslive what an obnoxious pillock that Trump representative is. I didn't catch his name but I think it was Sebastian Gorka. Clearly right up Trump's arse. He just proved, without a doubt, the US is our enemy.
