The person who made the decision to hold this story has never been a news reporter or a news editor. Really sickening.

Tory MP Matt Vickers' car crash encounter with @lewisgoodall.com on #Brexit.

LG: Do you accept you damaged the economy?
MV: No.
LG: Are you saying Brexit has been good for business?
MV: It's created opportunities.
LG: What about all the evidence?
MV: You need to come up north.

Huh? 😵‍💫 ~AA

We need to keep pushing that they release the Epstein files. Unredacted. If they fail to do this, the DoJ goes to jail.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:

It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.

It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.

Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

Always amazed that some Telegraph writers spend their time educating us on damaging antisemitic tropes, while some (occasionally, even the same writers) obsessively accuse anyone who disagrees with them on anything of doing so because a secret global cabal headed by George Soros paid us. Like, WTAF?

This is a very astute observation. I hadn't thought about Keith Kellogg, he just disappeared from the scene. It makes perfect sense that Putin would want to fainthearted guy like Witkoff doing the negotiations. 🗽

“3 min read” - but hours spent wondering just how stupid, EU-phobic, anti-democratic and unpatriotic Brexiters can get.
Their own failure has driven them absolutely nuts. (Though Gardiner seems to have been skipping around the edge of the lunacy abyss for quite some time now.)

Reform politicians double down on their racism because they’re proudly racist.
Farage won’t apologise for his or his party’s racism because he needs his racist voters on side.
Reform is racist. Farage is racist.
Don’t call for apologies. Call them what they are.
