Why do so many prominent Brexiteers live in France? Nigel Lawson; Andrew Neil; and former Brexit Party & UKIP MEP David Coburn. Asked to account for himself in the Nathan Gill story it turns out he lives in a French chateau. The brazen hypocrisy of this lot is just staggering!

Great line. Now, how about an enquiry?

Let’s just say Russia came up… and Farage was the punchline. 🔥

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.

#GrumpyPolitics Telling troops that they must not follow unlawful orders is not sedition. It is not undermining the President.
Unless the President is giving unlawful orders and knows it. In which case, he might throw a tantrum.

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

Setting aside for a second the lunacy and authoritarianism surrounding the Trump/Hegseth threat to court martial Mark Kelly, it is also politically moronic. No military court or jury would uphold this, and you only do Kelly a tremendous favor by making him more popular than ever.
