CBS has denied that it prohibited the Talarico interview from being aired, saying it gave only "legal guidance."

Imagine doing this with your one precious life. Other people are out there teaching children and curing cancer and you decide to spend your time telling outrageous, laughably unbelievable lies about a dementia-addled rapist and fraud whose legacy will be nearly ending US democracy
Leavitt: "I think it's frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit. He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service."

Why didn't Farage just answer the question about Reform's education policy?
Why did he seek to mock and ridicule the journalist asking a perfectly legitimate question and try to deligitimise the FT?
Easy. That's who he is. An arrogant man who doesn't have any policies beyond pointing at the sea.

This is also how every call to "slash red tape" or "deregulate" should be handled.
Regulations can always work better or be streamlined, but 98% of the time their purpose is still valid and the right wing clowns bloviating about it are the last people on earth you'd trust to iterate implementation.

"So will it be the same act but with a different label?"
Victoria Derbyshire humiliates Zia Yusuf on Reform UK's plan to scrap the Equalities Act, because, as she reads each of the things from the Equalities act he confirms they'll still be protected 🤷♂️

You've appointed Tories to your top team. Why should people believe your party is any different?
Farage: "These were two people who were ministers, but frankly weren't ministers for very long".
Suella Braverman was a minister for over 4 years.
Robert Jenrick was a minister for almost 5 years.

It’s worse than a cover up, they are trying to blame others for that of which they are guilty.
Congress will interview Hilary Clinton but not Donald Trump.
In what world does that make any sense?

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

A newly unsealed FBI interview shows an entire Deutsche Bank staff team internally tried to cut ties with Jeffrey Epstein in 2015, after seeing wires to young women. One compliance officer says she was later pushed out and fired after raising the issue. Management kept the accounts open.

Thankfully someone is calling out this bullshit immigration trope that’s repeatedly trotted out to make people think immigrants are a threat.
Don’t be fooled. Immigration isn’t the problem. Take a read, it’s clear what *is* a problem.
